  • I don't play as the Imperium. Many a time have the faithful fallen before my armies.

    But this... This is just awe inspiring. I get chills when I watch this. I am humbled by the countless heroes of Mankind, their deeds and devotion to the Emperor an example to us all. I actually cried as I felt the pain of the forgotten martyrs, their lives lost for nothing. This makes me want to fall to my knees and beg for forgiveness through sobs of sorrow.

    But alas, there can be no salvation for me...

  • @felynecomrade which side are you? i serve in my real life to better humanity so im imperium but i also see the views of chaos and there cant be light without shadow im new to the game but im a ametuer philosopher so i can under stand some of the premises

  • @Imperial5555 I've done a bit of philosophy myself. I am of the belief (as Magnus The Red was) that no knowledge is evil in itself, and an understanding of both Chaos and Order will allow me to make an educated choice. But Imperial doctrine states "Thou shalt not look upon the works of the heretic nor speak of them". Already this places me in opposition to the Imperium, which seeks to stifle my learning of Chaos. Why is this? Would my mere learning of Chaos tempt me to choose it?

  • @felynecomrade i think much the same way and dang an imperial doctrine that i didnt know of dam i need to look more up im still very new to warhammer40k but es i understand that thinking for myself im torn between the imperium and the forces of Tzeentch the chaos space marines however the attachment nurgle shows to some of his forces also draws me

  • @Imperial5555 Your dilema is between Tzeench and Nurgle? That's a coincidence, my dilema is between Slaanesh and Khorne. Slaanesh appeals to my artistic side and the ability to enjoy pain would be nice. Khorne appeals to my occasional desire to be respected and feared by all else. I am more leaning towards Slaanesh, though. But the afterlife in store for those who serve Chaos is an effective deterrant...

  • @felynecomrade yes that is a dilema afterlife consequence.on a different note ive hear stories of what would happen if the emperor dies and the imperium falls that a new and the most powerful Chaos god could be born on a philosphical stand point what kinda god do you think might be born from that i know little of how chaos gods are born that the fall of the eldar gave rise to the god of pleasure

  • @Imperial5555 The Warp is a dimension consisting entirely of energy and emotion. All the beings in the universe capable of emotion influence these energies. If a being experiences an emotion strong enough, that emotion burns brighter in the Warp. Like gravity, the emotions attract like to like: happiness to happiness, sorrow to sorrow, greed to greed and so on. When a body of emotion becomes large or strong enough, it becomes sentient, a being made of emotion: a Chaos daemon.

  • @felynecomrade ah so if the emperor dies and another warp is created sorrow and despair would grip the imperium worlds and create a God of absolute despair? now my choice between imperium and chaos is a little deeper now then again its just a game but the philosophies they've mixed in are intrapping im a libra so i weigh my options to the utmost degree

  • @Imperial5555 There already is a God of Despair: Nurgle. As for the Chaos god formed from Humanitie's demise, let's look at the Imperium as a whole, what emotions are most prevalent? Faith, hatred, self-righteousness, mistrust, fear, and repression come to mind. Those would be the characteristics of the formed Chaos god.

    I heard there's a top-secret plan within the Imperium to sacrifice the Emperor's direct sons so their esence will be absorbed with His, thus restoring the Emperor.

  • @felynecomrade yeah so have i but i heard they were using a exiled group of super psykers gathered under the pretense of "the final battle against chaos" but in reality they were going to be sacrificed and their powers offered to the emperor.as for the fifth god its said he would be born because of the loss of the emperor and the sudden absence of his psyker effect on the galaxy so wouldnt the death of him send sorrow and despair through the people strong enough to create one

  • @Imperial5555 The death of the Emperor would most likely be covered up. Faith in the Emperor is what unites the entire human race, as it has for over 10,000 years. It's a religeon 5 times older than Christianity followed by well over 1,000 times more people. If you told someone the Emperor was dead, they'd probably kill you on the spot.

    As for the sorrow and despair, I imagine the emotions would be absorbed into Nurgle, making Him the strongest god.

  • @felynecomrade well the emperor is the one making travel through the warp possible for most if no all races he goes the entire imperium and most of the galaxy would be sucked into the warp or thats what the writers say asfor feeding nurgle that makes sense but i dont think the emotion will last longer than a few seconds so maybe your right there might not be as much despair as much as the emotions the imperium shows daily

  • @Imperial5555 Warp travel is possible for loyalists because of 3 things: Warp engines, the Astronomicon and navigators (mutants sensitive to the flow of the Warp. I guess Chaos forces can get through the Warp because they're guided by the Chaos gods. The eldar and dark eldar use the Webway, orks use stolen or copied technology. Everyone else doesn't use Warp travel.

    I don't think the emotions in the Warp dissapate after a certain amount of time. Maybe they change or get weaker.

  • @felynecomrade if you read some of the things on the emperor he has a hand to play with loyalist warp travel something along the lines of helping stall the advance of chaos through the warp and calming the effects of warp storms in different parts of the galaxy im still a novice so they might have changed this

  • Comment removed

  • @Imperial5555 Chaos gods are essentially the same as daemons, only MUCH bigger, stronger, and dangerous. Becasuse of this, it takes a tremendous amount of emotion to create a Chaos god. During The Fall, almost the entire Eldar race indulged in satisfying thier every desire, including the evil ones. The Eldar fell into sadism, lust, desire and greed. This energy came together in the form of Slaanesh, Prince of Pleasure.

  • LOYALIST SCUM!

  • Which building is that in the first picture? I think its not the palace for that its too small!

  • Like the Third Reich! :D Greetz from Germany!

  • live for nothing die for something

  • Blessed be they that lay down their lives for the Imperium, for the Emperor shall remember them.

    Blessed be they that continue the existence of man, for the Emperor shall honor them.

    Blessed be they that live to see tomorrow, for the Emperor protects them.

    Honor and Justice for the Imperium of Man!

  • long live mother EUROPE!

  • @oftino kay kay :)

  • @mYs3c0nd4imismYpR0ud anytime bro :)

  • Now, I do believe The Emperor!

  • Sometimes i think about warhammer 40k (i read all books) and i dream about wake up in the time of warhammer it was be a perfect life even if i die in first battle. I respect a spiritual point of this sci-fi Allfather Lemanual Russ it was fantascit!!!

  • Can you be more precise when you say, "Epic music By Enya = Celtic"??

  • @nazz1979 its the day after tomorrow theme ;)

  • I like this, this is very... insanely awesome. The only thing I don't get is what is this for?

  • @theguywith46cats

  • Imperium Brand Condoms: The Emperor Protects

  • Just a heads up, but the song is actually "The President's Speech" by Harald Kloser from the soundtrack of The Day After Tomorrow. Just info for anyone (like me) who was searching for it.

    Great vid though.

    Still.. love it!

  • 1. Asgârd Tankdivision "Claws of Asgard" - REPORTING FOR DUTY, SIR!!!!!

  • i must say, it nearly did make me drop a tear.

  • Here we Stand Brave and tall, as our enemies from the skies do fall, they come to our worlds with malice great, and move so swift it seems too late, they seek to take our homes and land, and leave us buried in the sand, but to this we say "no, you shall not win, for you must first face me and my kin", we are warriors, brave and true, soldiers and brothers, through and through, hardened and strengthened by the life we live, we are marines, and no ground shall we give
  • i wich warhammer was real :-(  for the emperer

  • i know this questions been asked like 14billion times but i cant find this song anywhere except for this one and ive tryed to dl it and all i get is some random bag pipe song little help please :D><

    and awsome song to great music great pictures

  • Why doesn't this video work on iPhone.

    I like the video by the way

  • IN THE GRIM DARKNESS OF THE 41ST MILLENNIUM, THERE IS MORE THAN WAR

    THERE ARE PEOPLE, TOO

  • @pancakes578 not when in Dawn of War 2 they say Imperium always won in em =)

  • @pancakes578 LOL XD well, i suppose that, impossible and stupid or not, the greater good is the way that tau should keep follow, is one of their main characteristics.

    is like to say that space marines should stop fighting chaos cuz' with their own emotions they just make chaos stronger, a lost battle from the start, exactly as the tau dream of peace, but both races would not be the same anymore without their typical goals

    and as i've already say, tau fill the gap of an totally good faction

  • @Dour888 i would not say "totally good", its more like naive

    everyone has their darkside ;)

  • @oftino eheh, you right ; )

  • imperium, T'au, and Eldar should all be allies, they would all stand a much better chance.

  • @pancakes578 ok jokes aside, i think that tau are actually the only TRULY GOOD GUYS, imperium is consdered "good" only cuz "truly bad guys" are just even worse, while eldars are substantially egoists,

    Tau instead fights for a galaxy were ANYONE can potentially have a peaceful existence

    but probably tau won't never reach their goal...COME ONE GERYSKINS! TAKE A LOOK AROUND!

    WERE THE HELL TAU THINK TO LIVE? UNILATERAL PEACE IN WARHAMMER 40K!?!?.... )8D

    Admirable but... IMPOSSIBLE X)

  • @pancakes578 LOL! well, im not sure if that appellative is actually right.

    i mean, i'm not sure if are tau that are protoss posers or vice versa cuz' i don't know who is first apperaed on the scene

    however your comment make me suppose that are indeed the protoss the first ones to appear. ; )

  • Awesome vid. Nicely done.

  • @pancakes578 nice descriptions I:) but... NO idiotic-idealist-dreamer-isole­nt-last-arrived-protoss-poser-­USA-like-greater-good-exporter­-grayskins-that-haven't-notice­d-that-no-one-want-their-FUCKI­NG-greater-good WILL BE ABLE TO "EXPORT" their beloved Greater Good in a galaxy constantly lacerated by screams like BLOOD FOR THE BLOD GOOOOOOODgWrAaaAaArGLh!!!!! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL TRHWOoOooRghl(snarl)grwOnE!!!!

    or

    WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHH!!!!­!!!!!!!

    bad fitting goal, greyskins --_--"

  • How come you never see a picture of the imperial guard and space marines fighting along side? As a guardsman you will probably never fight alongside a space marine, as a space marine you will almost certainly fight alongside guardsmen many times.

  • Ask not... What the imperium can do for you...

    Instead ask... How...Can I die... For the Imperium.

    Governer Kennedy, Planet Merikon

  • @pancakes578 howcome u lost in all the dawn of wars :P

  • The Holy Imperium of Man doesn't solve problems - it purges them.

  • very nice video ;)

  • @TheWarha Thanks!

  • If I had a choice I would live in the Imperium.

  • @TheTeddyIsALiar

    Ookay.

  • @TheTeddyIsALiar Agreed. For the Emperor!

    What a life it would be to live in that universe.

  • @TheTeddyIsALiar you're damn right my brother ;-)

    But only as a Space Marine (Grey Knights or something like that).^^

    For the Emperor and the glory of Terra!

  • Exaltabo te, Domine, quoniam suscepisti me: nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.

  • 1:55 nice touch!

  • Excellent Vid Supremehydra.

    The Music fits very good to the absurdity and desperation how the Imperium tries to fight and survive against their enemies.

    Very good, i liked it very much.

  • @Supremeghostalpha

    Thankss

  • I love the three Basilisks firing @1:55 really ties this all up.

    Moving tribute, almost made me forget its all just make believe

  • @PaddyK293E

    Thanks man :)

  • Fear not what horrors lie in these desolate worlds. Think nothing of the pain that may ensue upon death. Flee not from holy battle against your enemies. Faith brothers, faith in the Imperium, the God-Emperor, and each other.

    Think not of the possibility of death. Think not of the forces of darkness, impurity, and evil. Think not of their inhumanity. For those who survive this day, I shall take up a great cheer of victory with thee, for thou art my brother.

    Now take thy arms men, for the Emperor!

  • America needs to embrace this 40k world more so as to make more stories and battles. im running out of stuff to read!

  • black templers 4 life

  • @seporote No Pity, No Fear, No Mercy! For Dorn brother templar!

  • Watching it through again, noticing the eagle at 3:17, the music at that moment, and "Remember Us" at the end, it fits perfectly. Again, great job.

  • Throughout the video I was thinking "this feels like one of those 'in loving memory of' type videos" and the I saw the 'remember us' at the end. That was awesome :) great job, I actually had goosebumps throughout the whole thing. Guess that shows you how much of a geek I am XD

  • @ChaosWyldrider

    you know what, this is one of the best reactions so far! :D

  • @ChaosWyldrider i had the same reaction, we must be the biggest geeks ever! and at 2:22 is my background on my pc

  • I love Warhammer!

  • somehow, i can't stop thinking that THIS very well reflect future Wars and probably the third world war that i believe would make th 2nd a baby step in the act of war.

  • If any of the branches of the imperium ever ceased to exist the imperium would fall.if the guard, adeptus astartes, adeptus sororitas of the ecclesiarchy, the commisariat ( which is part of the guard). The adeptus mechanicus, the munitorum, the administratum, the emperors most holy inqusition, and many other. If they disappeared the Imperium would eventually fall.

  • Imperial Fists ftw.

  • awesome video

  • @HandleyHalifax

    thanks :)

  • FOR THE EMPEROR

  • The Space Marines and The Imperial Guard:

    Unbreakable.

    Undefetable.

    Just Invincible.

    They will always win the fight in the name of the Human race and in the name of the God Emperor!

  • im new to this warhammer stuff is space marines and imperial guard on the same side??...and what other factions are there and who's with who??

  • @kd8894 The Imperium is a great faction which is - of course - led by the Immortal Emperor. The Imperial Guard is the backbone of his army the Space Marines are the Elite Warriors in this regard.

    BUT The Imperial Guard has to stand answer to the Space Marines as they are higher in Rank afaik. Thus this video ain´t quite right, since Space Marines and Imperial Guard are indeed different factions, though they are both fighting for the emperor! Space Marines have higher codices

  • @WaKaSaWaKaSaa so imperial guard are the common soldiers (so to speak) and the space marines are the super soldiers??

    and what are the other factions like??...who's allied with who??

  • @kd8894 The other factions which were introduced in the Warhammer 40k Dawn of War Series are thus far:

    Eldar (high technological alien race that once ruled the galaxy but now fight for survival against nearly everyone)

    Orc (well self explanatory I think... brute force and stuff)

    Chaos (like Space Marines but defiled and they serve the Gods of Chaos and use Dark Magics)

    Tau (High Technological race who are following the path of the "greater good")

    Necron (Robots who are revived by dark energies)

  • @kd8894 continue:

    Tyranids (they are like the Zerg in Starcraft - in fact Tyranids are the one who gave the Idea for zerg. They are driven by a common Hivemind and devour whole solar systems)

    Those are the factions.

    Noone is "allied". The Eldar and Chaos have used the Orkish lust for battle for their purpose before, but there is no real alliance at all. Eldar fought side by side with Space marines but again, no alliance.

  • @kd8894 The Imperium is extremely xenophobic, imperialist, and ideological, but is really the only hope for mankind. The Eldar were once a dominant race but fell thousands of years ago. They still believe themselves far superior and are more than willing to manipulate anyone or anything to benefit themselves. Orks are violent and savage, they tend to cause wars and conflicts, have no real civilization. The Tau fight for the 'greater good' which sounds nice but isn't always. Tyrannids are evil.

  • Great video and may the emperors will guide humanity.

  • @xXSauvageXx

    agreed!

  • @Supremehydra Might if GW keeps jacking up prices.

    And if you listen to Matt Ward.

  • @xXSauvageXx u have made the same vow though involuntary to your virginity.

  • Without the Dark, there can be no Light, We have purpose.

    Without the Lie, there can be no Truth, We have purpose.

    Without the War, there can be no Victory, We have purpose.

    Without the Death, there can be no Sacrifice, We have purpose.

    Without the Hope, there can be no Future, We have purpose.

    Without the Loyalty, there can be no Chapter, We have purpose.

    Without the Emperor, there is Nothing, And we have no purpose.

  • @xXSauvageXx Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment

  • @WaKaSaWaKaSaa That's not true, hope is the first step to reaching somethiing unthinkable!

  • @xXSauvageXx German?

    it´s "to reach something..." otherwise you´d be doin' it as you type..

    Following the codex, it´s the first step on the road to disappointment...

    I am just quoting

    not talking bout real life here

    ork? xenos scum!

  • @Supremehydra I have followed you too far to fail now Ghazghkull Thraka. I bear the gift of death. You cannot outrun me. There's no place in this universe where you can hide. I have waited a long time for vengeance. I'm tired but not so tired I cannot kill you. Maybe then I won't see the faces of the dead. Maybe then I'll be able to sleep.

  • The Cadian Gate will never fall. Abaddon hit Cadia with everything he had and caused a LOT of damage, but he ultimately failed to take the whole planet. Why?

    Because he never imagined the Imperium could ever field someone like CREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED!!! :D

  • I really liked the slide, glad that you included a picture of Tankred, no matter what will happen , what forces the filth of chaos will muster, the Imperium shall prevail thru the glory of the HOLY EMPEROR !

  • Long Live the Imperium of Man!!!!!.....Burn the Heretic,Kill the Mutant!!!!

  • @xcalabir THE LEGIONS OF MANKIND WILL ONCE AGAIN RECLAIM THEIR RIGHTFUL PLACE AS RULERS OF THE GALAXY!! THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!!

  • Death to the False Emperor!

    The Despoiler will ruin him, and cast his already ruined bodied into the Warp. CHAOS!

  • @Stahlfraust and how many crusades has your Despoiler been on? 13? hm. thats a big number and a lot of ass whuppin each time. Maybe your Despoiler should try gettin the fallen primarchs back together. oh wait... most are dead. wonder who did that?

    DurusMagnus, Inquisitor Lord of Ordo Maleus

  • @SylvanusMagnus and Abbodon might still have control over Cadia at the moment, but only the ground and they are consistantly bombarded are raided and cant get past cadia, and havnt been able to for 10000 years, they have to hide like cowards on space hulks so they can raid a planet or 2 lol

  • @SylvanusMagnus but they have taken thousands of random planets and rendered them to ash unfortunately and are slowly beating back imperial forces with every massive strike, its actually interesting.The chaos forces seem to be going around the larger of the imperial forces almost creating a jaw around the cadian forces close to the eye of terror instead of a straight brute force attack.

  • the guard fout bravely they all did

  • Foul as thou art space marines are the best!

  • The fallen shall be forever remembered as the Emperor`s finest!

  • Alone, we are strong, but together, we are invincible!

  • Loyalist Scum.All will bow before the Dark Gods!!!!!

  • GO....ELDAR....right?

  • heil to the empire

  • The Guard is the Hammer of the Imperium. It is the Space Marines of the 1000 chapters that survive are her shining sword.

  • The Imperium shall never fall! 

  • the last photo  was the chaos the mortal enemy of the empire

  • @bloodhelsing95

    they were dead weren't they?

  • @Supremehydra But the music does not realy fit in this part. It´s more sad than glorious...

  • @SSandfriendstudios

    that's the point. i'm not actually making a 'glorious' video of the imperium.

  • @Supremehydra

    But why should Imperials be sad when chaos renegades lay dead on the ground, makes no sence for me. Rest of the video´s still cool.

  • @SSandfriendstudios

    haha. no no, what i'm tryin to show is, what they do, how horrible their world is, how inhumane the universe around them is. even if the bad guy's dead, there are more to come. they will always be surrounded by war and death. that's the sad part. :)

  • @Supremehydra HERESY!

  • @SSandfriendstudios last i checked horus's body is ash and emperors is still complete.. the astronomicon still stands my friend.
