The Shattered Legions EXPLAINED By An Australian | Warhammer 40k Lore 

Nothing hurts the balls more than being apart of the shattered legions Lets honour these boys, the flesh is weak - prove it here : www.majorkill.shop/ I am wildly drunk typing this and am once again thankful I don't have a marketing person overseeing me

That's probably the real reason why Roboute Guilliman made the Shattered Legions into Space Marine Chapters with the Codex Astartes.

After reading some of Ferrus’s origin story, it’s a shame we didn’t get more god-tier anime battles with him :(

I already loved Raven Guard, but gained so much respect for Iron Hands while going through the Horus Heresy, both have some really cool characters that don’t quit.

Ah yes, the Iron Lords. Good lads them. Fighting the good fight alongside the Scythes of the Emperor and the Lamenters.

Raven Guard for tactics. Iron Hands for strength. Salamanders for compassion. What a combination! 😁

I think what a lot people forget the shattered groups were basically the 1st step to the death watch. And how well they did clearly shows why the concept was adopted

"Raise the storm Medusan. Raise the storm" Bro not only went on to raise the storm, but literally pulled the biggest F-bomb in nearly killing 3 of the big bad traitor primarchs with just 3 gunships. Shadrak Medusan is the blueprint to my current setting successor chapter of the iron hands known as "the Iron Storm" a chapter consisting of mostly Iron hands but one that also has some Raven gaurd and Salamanders amoungst their ranks as that mobile chapter is one that pays homage to the shattered legions by you guessed it... raising a literal FKN STORM of firepower upon all traitors and enemies of the Imperium. IMO the shattered legions were the dark horse of the HH as true they pretty much died off, but not before completing near every single task they went out to do. Bros we salute you.

I like how you get to see the raven guard survivors teach the other legionaries how to fight dirty

Frater Thamatica and Sharrowkyn’s group of shattered legionnaires different adventures were all a joy to read about from facing off against Peturabo to even meeting Alpharius himself they are easily my favorite of the shattered legions i can’t wait to reach the “sons of selenar” novel during the seige of terra to see the conclusion to their epic story.

Imperial Fists and their successor Chapters: *initiates The Last Wall protocol to reform as a Legion one last time* High Lords of Terra: "Wait, that's illegal!"

I'm predicting that when Corvus and Lorgar return to the setting finally (they are narratively tied to each other at this point), that Sharrowkyn will also be brought back, potentially creating a source of conflict with the Astartes forces and the Mechanicus. I'd also expect around this time for Dorn and Perturabo to also be making a return, as I believe the Khan, Magnus, and Russ will all be returning as part of a grouped arc.

Iron Warrior Loyalists such as Barbaros Dantioch are absolutely some of my favorite. The Iron Warrior short story were Danitoch bitch smacked his traitorous kin back to the stone age with the destruction of the Schadenhold on lesser Damantyne and then teleporting to their ship taking over the ship without killing lots of people then starts his B.F.F with Pollux. Super awesome!

Superb video as always @majorkill. Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions, etc

Autek Mor was such a chad during the Burning of Bodt, throwing a whole ass moon at the planet just to make sure it gets destroyed and the World Eaters don't get more reinforcements.

Reading an entire book about a bunch of iron hands and salamanders fighting against not only a planets worth of crazed dinosaurs but also a huge crazy daemon was a pretty cool read. That and any book with sharrowkyn in it is just awesome. I too decided I was going to take on the entire heresy about a year ago and it is a daunting task. But I do think it was worth it. Enjoy it

Another interesting video Majorkill, also please make an explain video on the centurion power armor and it's variants.

I’d love for sharrowkyn to come back so we can get a multi pg “I’m fucked” reaction from Lucius

The end of Schadrak Meduson left such a bitter taste that I couldn’t help but let out a « ffs finally » when Loken blew Tybalt Marr’s brains out in Saturnine.

A video covering the relationships between the first founding chapters and there most prominent chapters would be cool

Reading sharrowkyn kill that weirdo lucius was literally one of the most satisfying kills I've ever read

How would the imperium and the primarchs react to the return of Clonegrim? How would it impact the setting?

MY BOY SHARROWKYN's ARMOR LOOKS EFFING SAVAGE!!! TALK ABOUT A "BEAKIE" !! THAT HELMET IS METAL AS ALL F**K!!!

Majorkill really decided to thirsttrap the fuck out of the merch ad lmao well done

The Iron Hands really deserve more love.

Idea: how did the imperium and the galaxy react to the emperors interment on the Golden throne? The primarchs were depressed and the custodians stripped (that's not a joke) but how did the rest of the imperium react?

A video of the top ten community made wholesome moments would be great

I love how ferrus ghost came back and spoke to sanguinius in the end and the death because he is one of my favorite primarchs and I think we need more ghost ferrus and iron hands lore.

For the last year or so I've managed to fly through about 25 Horus Heresy books, and every single time since I've picked the series back up and Majorkill puts a video out with the main theme being one of the HH books, it's always the exact same one I'm reading or listening to at the time. Last night I hit pause after listening to the Shattered Legions audiobook for a couple hours, turned on my TV, went to youtube, and what do I see front and center? This video... It's always interesting to see what MK takes away from the books compared to me, and would love to see a series someday where he dives into some of the specific battles from the HH in more detail. I would love a 20 minute video on the battle for the Schadenhold, emphasizing just how hard Dantioch dunked on the traitors. Possibly the fattest and most embarrassing L that a traitor force ever suffered in the HH, in my opinion.

I also liked Damnation of Pythos. It literally was pointless (last chapter), but that was the point. Most badass Iron Hands showing in any novel lol

Sharrowkyn in the current setting would be glorious.

Do a video on the chief librarian from each legion.

Big E truly protects just got home not to long ago got some food ahh a blessing indeed to have a new video

I’m so excited for my emperor model to get here, merry Christmas major!

In my opinion numion is the biggest Chad in the Horus heresy, it's because of his actions that we still have salamanders in 40k.

Sons of the selenar is one of the best stories .

Your only reading the Heresy now ? Man , some serious catching up to do. Get with the program Major . 🤩

Bro I love this man so much that when the video came out I just listened to him at work like a podcast

Majorkill vids are always my go to while eating lunch. Man's a beast.

I'd reintroduce Ferrus to the setting as Iron Hands are massively underrated. Make him a warp/tech entity in the same way that loyalist holy daemons are but have it like a virus that changes the surviving iron hand gene seed so that he can directly commune with them like a machine spirit but can only do so with unaltered Iron hand gene seed. It also gives the added bonus of the spirit of Ferrus has the ability to take control of an Iron hand directly so long as the Iron Hand wills it however this is only a short period depending on the will of the warrior and is always fatal without exception. This opens up questions as to whether it's related to the Emperor's ability to possess people but in a different way and makes the Iron hands way way cooler than they are as if you can imagine a huge firefight with chaos closing in on the final few iron hands on the field and one of them is like "I got you boys, see you on the flip side." his circuits fry and Manus takes over. A Primarchs combat ability, knowledge and skill takes the field in a electric glowing lightning storm as the inhabited marine kicks the fuck out of everyone and then drops dead. Consequently the Emperor's children avoid them at all cost and to a certain extent the iron hands are forced to avoid the children as an overwhelming gasp for vengeance takes over to them and Ferrus can push his way in to take to the field, bypassing the will of the Iron hands giving the question is it really Ferrus or something else entirely that has his memories

I agree, it does take a while to read. I started reading the Heresy and Primarch book in July. I read on my breaks at work, and when I go do my laundry, and am currently at First Heretic and finished the first three Primearch books.

DA were my favourite loyalist until I finished the heresy and now I think RG are my favourite. Corax is just the good guy

Just saying, if you start a petition asking for Sharrowkyn popping up in current setting and permakilling Lucius or something like that, I am signing that paper right away.

Gabriel Seth, chapter master of the Flesh Tearers, did state that the Space Marine Legions are gone by Horus' treacherous strike and Guilliman's book. No longer the Angels of Death they were. Just pockets of rag-tag Space Marine groups scattered all over the galaxy.

Atticus was such a fucking badass man. Damnation of Pythos was actually my first ever Iron Hands book, in fact my first ever Horus Heresy book. I was so happy when reading Ruinstorm when it was shown to Sanguinius that the wound Madail had been dealt by Atticus never healed.

Im still waiting for a Raven Guard stealth game

Majorkill do a video of what happened to the survivors of Cadia

Feel ya on the length of the Heresy - I started during the pandemic and just started on The End & The Death 2. Gonna kill this series off, but goddamn there is a lot of it! Good luck on the journey. Also 'grats on the tacticus progress. Took you out in arena a couple of times last month, but can't touch your current lineup. Cheers for all the vids too. Appreciate ya

Great video as always. Maybe a video that compares Dorn and Perturabo's capabilities next time? Cause it has always been a debating point who is the better primarch in their craft of Siege and Defense.

Thank you for the absolute banger content, always enjoy your videos.

Sick 'THE FLESH IS WEAK' shirt.

Just found this channel and i can say as an unemployed combat vet, i have trouble sleeping at night and am looking for something to pass the time. Ive never been much of a mobile/rpg gamer but the idea of being a Space Marine bullying a bunch of suncucks and goth nerds sounds is making me thnk i should start 😂🔥

You know what I want for a video or even series. A what if X primarch was around after or survived the heresy.

What if the emperor ascended as a chaos God

Every Single Loyalist Chapter's Homeworld Explained

Oh Majourkill, I just saw you in an advert for Tacticus... shame. I know you need to bring in those pennies but how the mighty have fallen.

Wonderful video Fulgrim

we've mentioned it before but we played nightlords who went blackshield during the drop site massacre we nearly died helping some marines retreat we fought alpha legion and death guard ended up at ultramar talked to konrad when we tried to help cach him got told whare we would die ended up helping bring vulkan to his home and then helped them get to tera surviving and then fighting to the death with typhus can you guess who won

Shadrak Maduson ... the coolest name in all the 40k (my opinion)

The Keys of Hel deserve their own vid. By far the most horrifying tech the IH have

Someone needs to make a hardcore survival shooter called "Escape from Istvaan V"

Can we get a video detailing the 4 champion space marines of the chaos gods what they did during the crusade,how they fell to the chaos gods, what they have been doing since!! Cheers mate

Survivors of the three legions shows just how dangerous and united they are.

I think I have figured out how to defeat Lucius. Either trick him into entering a stasis pod, or if someone kills him, put that person in stasis.

Just wish there was more lore on non-chaos aligned warp entities, perhaps even an Argel Tal situation where an unlikely Guardsman or Inquisitor merge with a neutral warp-entity like what happened with Janus and the Noble Shard of Magnus

I wish they would continue the story of that one Salamander with ptsd after the dropsite massacre. Kinda wish to know what happened to him.

Could you do a video about the battle of Beta Garmon? Titans clubbing each other sounds awesome

10:12 Don’t think I’ve ever heard any other RU-vidr mention the Ignarak before now. On one hand, I’m really happy to see something obscure and kinda cool (in my opinion) come to the mainstream On the other hand, it’s mildly embarrassing how cringy the Iron Hands can get on their quest to become pure spiteful soup

5:40 wait so Magnus came in and said hi I hope y’all resurrect everybody’s favorite black man??? Feel that needs greater explanation lmaooo

Hello Majorkill, Would you kindly make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, the Ecclesiarchy? Pretty please? Thank you.

yo bro, nice vid can you do an episode were you explain what every faction dus to bring back there dead

He was dead ... until he wasnt!

I REALLY wish Ferris would’ve lived he has the potential to be top five best Primarchs EASY like come on smithing weapons with your bare hands is one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard of

The shattered legion is probably the most badass group of SM in all of 40k.

No mention of Ulrach Branathan? Nykona stole his thunder.

True, they got as slavs would say "fucked zguza(from behind)"), still the shattered legions did have the most interesting stories. As for Major's old video about Sharrowkyn, if we are to believe the Emperor's Gift novel(follows Hyperion, a Grey Knight who broke demon angron black blade and gained space wolves' respect enough to put an end to "months of shame"), there's a segment where his squad and part of inquisitorial retinue hit the communal showers, and one of the inquisitor's companions(and a proper amazon warrioress to boot) says something to the tune of "what a shame he can't use it anymore", implying space marines as a whole pack serious heat when certain appendage is concerned(provided said novel is still canon).

I listened to the audiobook of every HH book start to E&D Vol. 2, it took the better part of 4 years.

anyone taking it up that majorkill turns his hairsquig more and more into a version of fulgrims?

Day 4 of asking Majorkill to make a video on each legion's best accomplishment/battle/victory

Day 8 of asking for a dedicated series of videos detailing in depth the Lion El'Heresy

1:41 you got a side gig in Thunder from Down Under? 😂

Astartes equivalent of "I didn't hear no bell." Day 354 of requesting a Commissar Yarrick Major Mini pls and thank you.

Dude, the Salamanders just keep getting shit on. Nice space Marines finish last

something about iron father autek morr he didnt just blow up a world eaters recruitment world, he dropped the planets moon on it

Over 27,000 pages in the Horus Heresy and I've only read 412.

I just bought Damnation of Pythos thinking it was Narrowkyns gang…..dam

And thank you for the content

Cool as always.

Could you do a video on the Raven’s Flight, otherwise known as Corvus’s bad ass escape from the traitors?

We need a video on John Grammaticus.

A video on current events that’s going on in the galaxy would be sick on what everyone is currently doing

The epic nature of the Shattered Legions is why TheDamnation of Pythos passed me off.

Hey major, can you talk about what animal still exist from earth? What kind of pets people have, beasts of war, ect?

WHEN IS MY BIG E GOING TO ARRIVE?!?!

I’ve learned a lot of 4K lore here but I’ve always wanted to know, what’s the lore behind the hands covering face thing on the “let’s get into it” part. Someone please I wonder on it every time

New video idea: Who are the chief librarians for each of the 18 legions

Video 65 of asking ‘What if Nykona Sharrowkyn killed Fulgrim’

I've always thought Damnation of Pythos gets too much shit. Yeah it probably shouldn't have been a mainline Horus Heresy novel. But as it's own book I absolutely love it.

Breaking news: Big men shatter brother legions from behind

It would have been cool to see vulkan fight angron at the dropsite massacre...
