  • I AM, THE LAW!

  • The Arbites are NOT a police force. They do NOT enforce planetary law on citizens. They enforce imperial law on planetary governments and notabels, brutally repressing uprisings and covering up conspiracies, their court houses usually being the best fortifed location on the planet. They can simply execute planetary governours and Commanders of the Imperial Guard, for they only answer wo themselves and the High Lords of Terra.

  • This works on so many levels.

  • nice dude,nice

  • YEAH! Heavyarmored ass kickers! That's what I call a police :D

    5/5

  • good guys, Adeptus Arbites

  • Why hasn't ANYBODY made an Ork mod? I wanna see Ghazkhull or Nezdreg leading different types of ork. Oh well...I guess We'll just keep seeing more of the same then...

  • arbites sounds kind of bad, enforcers sound more police like than ARBITES WFT

  • Arbite is short for Arbitrator. It's similar to a judge.

  • what will i do? just summon some chaos daemons to tear the bastards heads off and puke acid in their mouths. XD

    good video. i like how you included "cops" music XD very clever

  • Infront of an Inquisitor?

    Good luck. Even if you kill the Inquisitor and run you'll have signed your own Death Warrant a thousand tims over.

    Once will be sufficient.

  • ummm no. i was talking about the adeptus arbites. i never even mentioned an inquisitor. and it was a joke anyway.

    so could you please just...shut up?

  • In any case in which a Daemon could be summoned, there would almost certainly be an Inquisitor and probably Stormtroopers acopmanying the Arbites. Joking or not, planning is a wonderful thing.

  • yes im going to make a PLAN? for a comment on youtube... thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard.

    obviously you dont understand the words "SHUT UP" so dont bother replying, jackass.

  • I gotta agree with charlie, you are just being annoying. And to refute your random points, in most situations in which a daemon is summoned there would NOT be an inquisitor around, but rather it would be done in secret. Arbites aren't the people that deal with daemons anyway.

  • My dad was a cop for 27 years, he will love this one!

  • help hazmat, gunflashes account has closed, the 40k community will be attacked by numerous chaos spam trolls and eldar smartasses, help, GUNFLASH COME BACK, we need this gurus wisdom for help to the noobs and to crush the heretic, hazmat, make a few more tributes about 40k, imperial tribs please, *grabs bolter* prepare for the storm brothers*sees chaos spammers and eldar smartasses charge* oh sh**, *cultist hacks into my chest plate with no result* OH NO U DIDNT *Shoots cultist in face and stabs

  • Aw shit, here comes the tau, "FOR THE GREATER GOOD!" MY ASS!!! *shoots tau in the face* yes!

    Chaos spammers are fighting over whose legion is better and why the traitor primarchs don't do shit. (besides their mothers) Quick, call in Dark Angel!

  • Oh, i'll tell you what's ya gonna do: RUN.VERY.VERY.FAST.

    And you still cant outrun a bolt.

  • Judge Dread is a beat cop compared to these guys!

  • robocop eat your FUCKING HEART OUT!!

  • what about Judge Dredd? :P

  • The Arbites are based off of Judge Dread

  • Hmm... I'm vague on the Adeptus Arbites... Are they like something between the Imperial Guard and the Inquisition?

  • They are the imperiums police force

  • pretty much SWAT/police.. they use shotguns and a toned down version of power fists

  • Hmm... Why not use lasguns?

    They're much cheaper to manufacture and use.

    Plus that they've got better range etc...

  • Because, besides the fact that shotguns are pretty freaking cheap to make, you dont want a bunch of lasguns going off in a hive city, and shotguns are much better crowd control - spread shots.

  • Fair enough. But in most of the 40k books I've read, it's mostly PDF that deal with problems. And they use lasguns...

    I'm thinking about Necropolis, the Adeptus Arbites didn't even show up. :S

  • Well, you gotta remember in Necropolis the Vervungive elite liked to think of themselves as equal or above the Imperial law, therefore the Imperium allowed them to have there own police force (the Vervunhive Primary) so that's why. If you read the Ultramarines Omnibus, there is a lot of good Arbites action.

  • Yeah in Bringers of Darkness. I loved that book.

  • NECROS PWN ALL!

  • Pretty much. That sucks for us Space Marines. Hey, before you take out the Imperium, could you kill your god's rivals first? The chaos gods? You know, hiding in the Eye of Terror?

    That'd be nice, thanks.

  • Ill ask the C'tan if it will fit in their agenda

  • Thanks.

  • I'm actually a pretty big necron fan, after the Imperium of course.

  • Every one likes that ultimate evil to a certain extent

  • OMG beastliest battle in 40k ever Chaos gods cs C'tan

  • I think if they have to deal with a riot they dont want to kill them just stop them

  • Nice video music suits it too :D brings back memories Arbites were the first army i made from scratch bits almost fully converted

  • That'd be neat if some of those boyz would mobilize for war! It looks like they got some cool gear. I'm surprised Relic didn't put them in DOW as an aux unit for IG or SoB.

    Liked the vid!

  • The imjperium is a distopia, lots of crime poverty, rasisum, zeal and fear

  • its better then life in the i of terro

  • Not really in the eye it's actually really nice we just make3 it look like a hell hole to combat imigration and it worked coz the red coursers haave f***ked off in to the melastrom

  • "to detect and purge" lol great stuff man

  • at 0:34 there is this woman from one of the wh40k books. and i can see a lightsaber there...wtf? is it really a lightsaber? i thoght they only have power weapons in 40k .

  • It's a slightly bad artist rendition of a power maul. Apparently he drew it with a red energy field around it.

  • they do have light saber like weapons a power sword with out the sword but there EXTREAMLY RARE to find i think inquistor eisonhorn had one

  • I don't know the current fluff, is being taken hostage still considerd a crime? Wasn't penal battalions a punishment for minor offences, like overdue librarybooks (1:st ed fluff that...)

  • Well I'm not sure about being taken hostage, but I do remember paying a ransom was a crime.

    I seriously doubt the current fluff still has people being sent to a penal battlion for overdure library books. The background has shifted away a great deal from the original sick sense of humor that was characteristic of the original Warahmmer 40,000: Rogue Trader. (Though I will admit that sense of humor was one of the best things about the orginal 40K)

  • nope they are for the ones who can't be redeemed.

  • whats the book called and can you get them online (as miniters and books)

  • Wats the D.O.W. mod ur using?

  • First off, please use proper spelling.

    Second, please read the video description.

    Thank you.

  • they see me rolling

    they hating

  • and do they arnser to the inquisition

  • Every loyal cititzen of the Imperium answers to his majesrys most holy Inquisition

  • dude. almost every imperial faction answers to the Inquisition

  • correct every imerpial organisation listens to the inquisition or else they get kiled.

  • can they do what they want or do pdf law goverment control them

  • The Arbites are an independent organization. They maintian fortress-precints on Imperial worlds to keep the local governments in line and deal with cults etc. So actually the PDF and the planetery govenor answer to the Arbites.

  • oh do they need to trie people in courts

  • i do agree they do need to make some more models for both 40 and necromunda, but since we want them they wont do it, now if noone asked for it they might but since u asked we might as well forget it cause now they'll never do it. that might make a customer happy and we cant do that

  • love the song it kicks ass

  • Adeptus Arbites are certainly no weaklings. During the siege of the Imperial city of Vogen they held their Precinct House against a huge force of chaos cultists, traitor guards and night lord chaos space marines for several days thus giving the Imperium time to muster forces to crush the rebellion.

  • They also held the Pavonis Courthose against Leman Russ tanks. When that fell, a group of Arbites made their way to the main armory on Pavonis before the rebels could get their hands on it. They held it, causing massive casualties for the traitors. When they were finnally overrun, the lead Arbite Vigil Ortega detonated the entire cache, killing even more scum as well as denying them the single largest wepons cache on the planet

  • You have obviously read too much of the Ultramarines Omnibus.

  • Someone should do a cops like thing with the arbites "Arbites is filmed on location with the men of the Adeptus arbites, All heretics are guilty until proven inocent by a bolt round through the head"

  • that would be awesome

  • lolz

  • well they dont really fight if there is a threat that could kill the hive. then they call in the space marines or the imp guard to safe them. almost every time.and that makes them a meat shield for a meat sheild IE the lesser imp guard.

  • if you're gonna bring them down at least use good grammar, ha

  • Adeptus Astartes plain and simple Arbites my ass

  • They bite your ass? :P

  • nvm it means they suck

  • It was a joke mate... :D

  • lol i no

  • see what you did there, Touche

  • WHERE DO I GET THAT MOD???????

  • and whats the name of the Adeptus Arbites books

  • god i love this song

  • The Arbites from the mod are awful. Even Eldar can easily beat them.

  • "they are the law in the hive creep!!"

    thats my gang in necromunda and enforcers.

  • they are also a pile of weank in a game of necromunda. they always ge ttheir arse kicked. their rules need to be re-written

  • Pimp Chimera? xD

  • Adeptus Arbites are the PDF or planetary defence force.

  • No, the Adeptus Arbites are Robocop and/or Judge Dread meets Warhammer 40K. The Planetary Defence Force are a weaker version of the Imperial Guard.

  • Exactly, PDF are completely different, they are the planetary military arm, not policing. Though PDF are usually looked down upon by conventional imperial guardsmen who have to go fight on twisted death worlds and daemon worlds while their PDF counterparts sit around on their asses and wait for Abaddon to show up.

  • I u think, the Arbites are the Cops, whilst the PDF are the National guard. That puts it in understandable terms for the people who don't know

  • Exactly.

  • Adeptus ArbitRes?)

  • haha I probably enjoyed this more than I should have ! I think the arbites should use this as a recruitment video

  • the song fits this video because the arbites are like the police of the Imperium

  • well done! cheers around!

  • Is there a reason why I should suspect the Adeptus Arbites has a DoW mod?

  • Wait why do the Arbites look more menacing then the Imperial Guard? Who would win in a straight up fight? Guard right? I mean they are the Imperium's army and the Arbites are like it's police force... I'm curious because these dudes look like they could kick Guard ass.

  • Actually the Arbites are more like the SS from Nazi Germany. There not there so much to deal with crime, that's the local enforcers' jobs. Arbites are there to make sure the planetery Govenment and it's citizen don't get any funny ideas. Prevention of coups, uprisings, secession, and Chaos cults are their primary purpose.

  • Also Arbites are actually better trained than many Guard regiments, being on par with Inquisitorial stormtroopers. They are also much better equipped, with carapce armor, guided armor piercing ammo and in some situations, bolters being standard issue.

    If a Guard regiment decided to take on an arbites garrison the Guard might win, purely because of numbers. But there have been instances of Arbites holding out for months against Chaos troops.

  • I sort of agree with you, but the Arbites are if anything more likle Judge Dredd's then the SS.

  • Well I was speaking more in fuction rather then form. While they have alot of similarities, Dredd delt with crime, the Arbites deal with dissent.

  • Which, in the Imperium of Man, is the same thing.

  • i play 40k lotr wfb blood bowl necromunda but the arbites are the funist army i play with

  • you don't mess with the arbites is all that needs to be said

  • 'Justice is swift'

    'BURN THE HERETIC'

  • Judge Dredd would fit in perfectly in the Warhammer:40,000 universe

  • Exactly. He would be serving in a hive world, blowing any ganger trash to hell and gone. Remember: The charge of grand heresy against the Emperor is a charge so great that no possiblity of innocence exists. The best you can hope for is that they'll put a sanctified bolt shell in your head and then destroy the body, instead of starting with the intestines and working towards the vital organs.

  • well..it`s a judge dredd thing, I guess!! Seems weird..^^

  • yea these guys remind me of judge dredd to

  • I just realized theres a lack of artwork for the adeptus arbites :)

  • they look tougher then the actully gaurdsmen

  • awsome

  • 2:23 happy

  • Bad people, Bad People

    What's your course of action

    What's your course of action when they run towards you?

  • spray and pray of course

  • spray and pray duh!

  • To purge and protect? LOL!

  • Where did those c.g. pics of the adeptus arbites come from!

  • It's an upcoming mod for DOW. During the credits you'll see the website where you can get more info.

  • yeah i was about to say, is that a dow bg?

  • cool!

  • Imperial Guard OWN!!!!!

    chaos suck

  • Chaos suck now. New friggin codex eats ballz.

  • they don't suck they just made it so u have to think about strategy instead of just having your lord and 500pt demon prince do all the work (which you know is what was probably your strategy)

  • thank God they changed it ._.

  • As much as I hate to get into a 40k argument on YouTube, I wish to bitch about the new Chaos Codex. How about the fact that all The Gods' demons are identical now? And taking away the 'gifts'' system has made the Chaos army list very bland, where before it inspired me to all sorts of whack-job conversions.

  • What the f**king hell was GW thinking? Games are supposed to have a bit of variety in them, and the new Chaos Codex simply f**ks up everything. I'm not surprised that a mob of angry Chaos players are standing outside GW headquarters, holding torches and pitchforks and protesting, murdering the first guy that comes out of the building.

  • its not that bad you'll get used to it. i hate the new dark angel codex (it totally ruined the army for me) but then i learned how to use them and even though they mucked it up i started to like some of the rules. they make mistakes sometimes, admitally when they do they're HUGE like when they made dark angel scouts elite choices!!!

  • Sorry, but I don't even play Chaos primarily. I'm just disappointed at the over simplification of the army. I'm not saying the armys not effective, I'm just saying that it's pretty boring. I really liked the last Chaos Codex - it made the army really unique.

  • haha i started with the warhammer40k starter kit. then i learned everything from the rules book. when i learned everything, i started the dark angel army.

  • I quiver in fear at the rumors of the new Guard Codex soming out in the next year or two...

  • yeah now it's more balanced.

  • yea.... ther 2 weak but annoyingly swarmy

  • Nah, they'll just send you back into the Eye of Terror yet again...

  • Burn heretic!

  • lol those ass holes don't stand a chance agianst the house of orlock lol

  • Heretic! Prepare to be judged!

    :P

  • Awesome Mod thar. Got some Arbiter models for Necromunda and was thinking of trying to mod some for DoW. Though evidently you guys beat me to it and make a great job of it :)

    Kudo for the great looking mod.

  • I appreciate the praise, but it's not mine. There's a link in the credits that'll tell you where I got the screenshots whose REALLY doing the mod.

  • Yea well kinda meant kudos for posting the great looking mod. :p

  • I saw pictures of them in dawn of war, do you know where i can download the mod?

  • Pause during the credits at 4:05. That'll give you the address. I'll warn you, the mod still isn't done, and won't be for awhile. So don't get your hopes up.

  • Just a couple of suggestions for your next project. Follow this one up with a video for the Necromunda Gangs and set it to "Gangsta's Paradise" By Coolio and follow up the Imperial Guard with either the pace Marines, set to "Klendathu Drop" from Starship Troopers, or the Imperial Navy, to the "Imperial March" from Star Wars

  • Ya know, mabye some of the more dedicated (by that I mean uber geeky) members of the 40k community who have an intrest in 40k costuming should form an actual group. Notable similar examples are the Rebel Legion and 501st who do Star wars costuming. Maybe 40k should have one too? It would certainly provide alot of promotion for 40k. (Just think of the attention a squad of IG or Astartes would get at a SF con...)

  • Well, some of the 40K races are considerably harder to make costumes for, Space Marines for example and I have endless respect for those who actually manage to build a costume of Astartes Powered Armour. I once thought about tryng to build a suit of Eldar Guardian armour, but realised how expensive it would be... Don't get me started on Dark Eldar armour

  • No argument there. I'm still amazed by people who just have time to make a decent bolter, let alone a whole suit. However, that's certainly a good reason to have a group. It provides an excellent place to pool resources for that sorta thing. Most 40k fans already have basic painting and shop experience, which gives us and edge. Working on joint projects could help cut cost and time.

  • hey DE armor is the easist. they like wear nothing

  • Heh Heh. I know the feeling. I also do War of 1812 reenacting (more costumes!) and me aad several of the guys in my unit walked into a Pizza Hut...that was interesting.

  • nice, are these models for the warhammer 40k game? or just for DoW

  • Both. Arbites were originally used in a 40k spinoff called necromunda (think judge dredd). There a some who use the unofficial online arbite codex or the witch hunters codex to use arbites as a 40k army (something I intend to get around to). Most of the shots in this vid are from the DOW witch hunters mod. You can see the address to the web site during the credits.

  • Actually, the Arbites appeared first in the Codex Imperialis, the generic units rule book that came with the third edition of the Warhammer 40K tabletop game. They were added to Nekromunda in an expansion book for that game, about five years later... Don't look at me like that, I know I'm a geek. I even wear a Commisar's coat and Jackboots, though I refrain from shooting people for cowardice

  • Actually, now I remember, you're right. Just remember, when a geek is alone, their behaivor is considered geeky. When geeks group together, geekiness is considered normal behavior. lol. That being said, about the commissar's coat, do you have a printed catalog or do I order online? LOL. (seriously, were'd you get it?)

  • Its my grandfather's greatcoat from when he got out of the army, decorated with GW badges. You can find an appropriate coat in any Army surplus store or just the right side-street clothing store that sells old uniforms, you just need the right badges and medal to stick on it

  • Well, thats something I'm gonna have to add to my que of costums for the local SciFi convention. Each year a different one, so far I've got:

    '08 Sergeant Nathan Hale (Resistance: Fall of Man)

    '09 EU Assault Trooper (Battlefield 2142)

    '10 American Black Ops Trooper (also Resistance: Fall of Man)

    '11 Imperial Guardsmen (Tanith First-and-Only)

    '12 Space Marine (Space Wolves chapter)

    '13 Imperial Commissar (might be a generic one, but maybe I'll do Colonel-Commissar Gaunt)

  • Heck no, Gaunt's boring. Go as Commissar Ciasphas Cain, a real hero of the Imperiam and a far more interesting charicter, with his own sub-sect of the Imperial Cult on Tallarn

  • They worship him on Tallarn? Cool! (Don't tell me anything else, I still have three more books to read!) I'd love to get a good SF costume together but it can be so damn expensive. It can be hard to find the right stuff. I'm slowly working on a Mobile Infantry uniform (Starship Troopers) using mostly East German items and the few fan made replicas you can find out there. I'd love to do an IG Commissar, but greatcoats are expensive and it would require alot of sewing to get the trim right.

  • Yes,the Tallarn do in fact view him as a Saint of sorts (hard to believe if you've read even one of the books) Just buy the Ciaphas Cain Omnibus, that'll give you alot of Cain material for only about $20 (3 full books and 2 offical short stories) And good luck with the MI uniform, I know how much of a pain body armor can be when it comes to scifi military uniforms

  • Body armor? Heh, that's a little beyond my current plans. To get that you either have to mold your own or shell out $800 for an origional prop or replica (both of which are way out of my league). Moritas (orig. or replica) are near impossible to find. At the moment I'm just working on the fatigues, mabye a dress uniform. Just something to wear on a Saturday at an SF convention. How do you plan on assembling your IG uniforms?

  • Well, to be frank there is no single Imperial Guard uniform. The very nature of the Imperial Guard in the minitures at least, is that you can make an IG uniform out of just about any vaguely military uniform and stick an aquila on it. Cain's own regiment to Valhallan 597th are basically WW2 russian infantry winter uniforms and the Tallarns are just in Arabian style desert dress

  • Too true. The Tanith Ghosts will be easy to do, all I need is the bodysuit, stealth cloak, and a Tanith Blade (Yes I can get one, my parents sell knives and swords and we can work one into a Tanith blade) But for the body armor, what I do is take some metal from a local scrap yard, and carefully work it into the general shape of the armor, with about a 1/2" to 1 1/2" gap between it and me depending on how bulky the armor is supposed to be.

  • Then I pad the inside of it, and if necessary the outside as well, but I try to avoid this. If I don't pad the outside, I'll paint the armor, but if I do paint the outside, I'll have to make a special sleeve to fit over the armor. It's a very long and sometimes painful process, but it is well worth it in the end.

  • Catachan's are basically Rambo with an Aquila tattooed on one arm. The point is, that the diversity of the IG, as demonstrated in your other video, is what makes it so easy to make a costume for them. But since Imperial Guard as a rule wear flak armour, a body-protector from a horse-riding supplier will do in a pinch. A cheap body-protector, repained and a an Aquila stenciled on should work too

  • Pad, Pad the outside I meant. Sorry for the triple post. Oh, and about the gathering of geeks, that came up at this years conventions "You know, that tell the hotel staff what to expect, but does anyone tell the Fridays across the street?" That came up when some people cosplaying Avatar charaters walker into the Fridays. Poor poor mundanes (why can't they embrace the fun lifestyle of geekdom)

  • Gaunt isn't boring. Did Cain kill a Chaos Space Marine and a Daemon single handedly?

  • Yes... Two chaos marines of Khorn, several deamons, a few thousand orks, plus Necrons, Eldar (Both kinds) and just about everything in the 40K universe that might try to kill him...

  • what about a chaos lord?

  • He survived the 13th Black Crusade and fought a Demon Princess of Slaanesh. Name it and chances are Cain has fought it (Despite his best efforts to avoid it). You wanna compre Commisars, how about Yarrick, Hero of Armageddon

  • i'll admit that cain is good but even he didn't survive over a year stranded on a chaos held planet

  • Gaunt isn't boring. Did Cain kill a Chaos Space Marine and a Daemon single handedly?
