Mrfictioneer got it right. When I listen to this song I think of shittons of men along battle lines with entire divisions of artillery behind them raining hell on their enemy.
'Even a man who has nothing can still offer his life.' 'Life is the Emperor's currency, spend it well.' 'For everyone of us who falls, ten more shall take his place!' 'Glory for the first man to die!' 'Who told you to die? Keep figting!' 'Only in death does duty end.' 'Cowards die in shame.' 'Victory needs no explanation, defeat allows none.' 'Success is measured in blood; yours or your enemy´s.' 'Brave are they who know everything yet fear nothing.'
Give a man a lasgun, Put him in some flak armor and a pair of boots. He isnt a guardsmen. You send that man into the bowels of HELL ITS SELF and DEMAND he walk back alive! And when he does... you have seen a real guardsmen.
@rocketzombie237 That's the thing. Lasguns are cheaper to produce en masse and it is more economical to arm soldier who is more likely to die with a weapon that is easier and less expensive to make. Bolters are High Technology, each military grade Bolter is made with special care on a Forge World or an Astartes Chapter Articifer. The standard issue .998 Godwyn Pattern Bolter is only able to be used by an Astartes because of the size and recoil. Only IG officers get Human sized Bolt Pistols.
@NINJAinTIGHTS Only called that cause so many new recruits die in there first battle. the survivors, forged in a baptisum of fire, Are the true guardsmen.
@kurlobe Yeah I know that lol. Just making fun of just how patheticly underequiped and trained the bulk of the Imperial Guard is. The Cadia and the other elite regiments are no joke to be sure.
You know what I really like about the IG Stronghold theme? All the other stronghold themes sound kind of sad and/or angry (for lack of better words), as if the owners know they're going to lose.
The IG theme makes it sound like they've won already- and hell, just the fact that a bunch of unaugmented humans and unsophisticated war machines have caused you this much trouble probably means they have.
@kenyenjones Enemies of the Imperium, hear me. You have come here to die. The Immortal Emperor is with us and we are invincible. His soldiers will strike you down. His war machines will crush you under their treads. His mighty guns will bring the very sky crashing down upon you. You cannot win. The Emperor has given us his greatest weapon to wield. So make yourselves ready. We are the First Kronus Regiment, and today is our Victory Day.
