  • Serve. Him. Now. :D

    Great video!

  • I understand the Tau are recruiting human troops as well. I think I'll head their way.

  • My country have no recruiting center :(

  • ''what i would do'' ?

    hmm. ''sir. this is just a missunderstanding. im to thin and such to join the frontline. Cant i join the sister of battle dressing room guard instead?'' and then i guess i would be shot for the idea.xD

  • an Imperial planet. You are walking through a crowded street with your friends... FRIENDS!? This is the 41st Millennium! Who the hell has FRIENDS!?

  • Blood for the blood god

    Skulls for the skull throne

  • the song is "bozhe tsarya khrani"--"god save the tsar". it was/is the imperil russian anthem.

  • FOR DEH EMPRAH!!!

  • Now: "Wow! I'm goin to join the Guard and fight for Mankind right now!" (signs up)

    6 years later: "HOLY SHIT!!!" (gets ripped in half by a Khorne berserker)

  • The brave boys of the 64th Culhan Rifles stand ready to shore up mankind's defences!

  • Another note: nice choice in music: "God Save the Czar"

  • The only problem I really have with it is the fact that Imperium pretty much enforces a planetary draft, i.e, on a planet, you are given a draft card. When called, you join the PDF (national guard, but way less professional) When Imperium needs more solders, they take PDF forces and turn them into Guardsmen. Good video though, it has that Imperium feel to it.

  • I would run away before the commissar shot me for blinking at the wrong time.

  • Would have been better had the creator bothered to exercise basic proofreading skills. Always frustrates me when people go to this much effort on every detail in a fan vid BESIDES spelling & grammar... Sheesh.

  • @Mekkis Yeah, I know... I was young and ignorant... xD

  • If the slides were spelled correctly, it'd be way better than it was...

  • whipe lol

    

  • Are you guys absolutely mad? YOUR DAMN EMPEROR IS DYING SLOWLY! His throne life support is failing...Would you rather join the victorious tau or become slaves to the uselss chaos?

  • @Thearbiter84 ORKS IS DA BIGEST AN' DA STRONGEST!!!

  • @Zaneth0 Prepare the hammerheads. Kroot, prepare for close combat. and...FIRE!

  • @Thearbiter84 Orkses is never defeated in battle. If we win, we win, if we die, we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!

  • @Zaneth0 *Sigh*You orks have signed you're own death papers. Get the tau mantas!

  • Join The Imperial Guard. You'll win every 40k tournament ever. Your tanks will send enemy armor to the scrap yard. Your infantry will overwhelm enemy troops and tarpit assault specialists in melee. Your autocannon heavy weapons teams will rip any monstrous creatures a new one. Your Command Structure is unmatchable with its efficiency in orders. Your Commissars will make sure your men never break. All this and you've only spent HALF your alloted points. Its a good year to be a guardsmen.

  • What's the name of the song in 1:30 ?

  • @Simon0725 Its the Imperial Guard tune of Genral Sturm from the Dawn of War Winter Asault game.

  • @padaanza

    Thank You.

  • Stompy Stompy sentinel i am a sentinel and i am smashing u

  • Forget this foolish humans! Join the tau, and not your corrupted emperor..please?

    Or we shall use lots of mantas and hammerheads :P

  • @Thearbiter84 Big talk from bottom tier Tau. Thats what we have Vanquishers for. We'll keep our master race high tier codex thank you. XD

  • @Thearbiter84 "ohhh no what shall i do" coughs as vendettas drop plasma/melta vets off.

  • Death to the false emperor!!!

  • Screw the Imperium ! You shall all be consumed by the Hive Mind !

    Foolish humans !

  • I am now convinced to join an army that doesn't even exist.

    You sir, are a master of propaganda. :3

  • @Kemonokami Wow... ^^ Thanks man! =)

  • I want to join the Imperial Guard! FOR THE EMPEROR!

  • "Боже царя храни" - ну вы сосвем обалдели...

  • if you cant join the Guard there's always the Pdf not as good but same brutal disipline

  • You spelt honour wrongly...

  • I love how the Imperial guard never tries to increase morale by saying:

    "Remember your training and you will make it home alive!" but:

    "You are going to die so horribly you can't even begin to imagine, but if you don't, then I'll kill you myself only slightly faster!"

    You think they actually train commissars or just drag a few psychos out of the loony bin, give them a big hat and tell them to go nuts?

  • @Tjongibuljongen I think the latter... I mean "Glory for the first man to die" is not a great goal...

  • @Tjongibuljongen Commissars are taken from different worlds than the regiments they serve with, they are often orphan children from fallen Imperial Officials, these Orphan's are then taken to a facility and trained to love the Emperor, once they reach a certain age they will be put into Cadet Commissar training area's then when they graduate they join regiments and are usually stupid enough to go trigger happy, Inquisitors are also trained in the same way, but Inquisitors are usually Psyker's.

  • @Tjongibuljongen Some Commissars(like Cain/Yarrick/Gaunt) know it hurts the morale worse if you go shooting everyone you see, Cain not so much that, but he'd prefer to have another body infront of him preferably a live one, Yarrick, well, let's just say Men have many Ork qualities, the more men we have fighting alongside us, the more fearless we become, the more successful a leader becomes the more of us flock to him, Yarrick was very successful in fighting Orks, so naturally men would go to him

  • if you dont join you get drafted anyway...

  • The tsar's Russia Hymn! Well, I would have given my life for the Emperor, if I only knew what the comunists were going to do to my land...

  • no it's more like WW1

  • Why I feel like I'm watching some soldier recruitment ads from WW2 period.

  • I will join 13th PAFOA Liberators!For the Great tomorrow of Mankind!

  • Were do i sign lol

  • join the guard meet new alian races ... and destroy them ^_^

  • W40K is for neckbears.

  • For the greater good, fuck your emperor

  • FOR THE EMPERAH

  • 0:53 "The Emperor will be your shield"

    So there's no shield then....

  • They should also add that they give them oversized laser pointers that might scuff the pain off if power armor

  • 0:15: A MISPELLING! Contact the local Commissar for immediate execution!

  • join the imperial guard! we destroy heretics!

    Warning: not joining the guard is heresy

  • So they invented laser guns but not film in color.

  • @B4gle Welcome to 40k.

  • Were do i sign?! lol

  • the song is epic whats the name of it?

  • Lol, all marines in the imperial guard are forced to join it..

  • the only problem with this video is that its not just anyone who can join the guard... there are military specific worlds who pick their own (vostroya) or even a whole world dedicated to producing fresh guardsmen trained from birth for that purpose (catachan and cadia) so the point is its not quite as easy as this to join the guard....

  • @rapkantodus The Imperium counts millions of planets, I'm sure there must be atleast one of them that recruits the way the video shows. Including the bad grammer. xD Cheers!

  • @padaanza Well the thing is each planet is like a mini nation unto itself for all it's blustering and harsh speak the Imperium of Man is nothing more then a ragged, torn up Imperial Confederation. So each world has a certain amount of autonomy and in actual reality in the case of the outer most planets, complete autonomy. Unless a Inquisitor just happens to be roaming around chances are you could do whatever you want on the Imperium's fringe.

  • @padaanza Agree with you there. You cannot imagine the imperial guard as a modern nations fighting force we have today. Over a million worlds, billions of people, different cultures. You just have to read some of the fluff in the Guardsmen codex to know some Guard regiments are more like mobs in riots.

  • @padaanza

    Yes you're right about that.  Like some hive world or civilised world that just needs to fill it's tithe. They'll probably try to get volunteers before they start drafting men.

  • @padaanza

    Quibbling over grammar when the spirit of the word is the primary concern is heretical.

  • @padaanza Haha I was going to comment on how spelling and grammar must not be important to the Departmento Munitorum in the 41st millenium, but you seem to be on top of that. :P

  • @padaanza All planets give men to the Imperium. Instead of paying taxes, you give soldiers to the Imperial Guard

  • @padaanza Yeah, I was about to mention the grammar (to/too, Everyone/every one, etc.) before I saw your comment. The Emperor protects... and uses spell-check!

  • @rapkantodus no the problem with this video is that on the third slide he left out the second 'o' in too

  • i want to join, give my life for the holy EMPEROR!!!!!

  • Avete Imperator Hominum! Honore et corde meo serviam Tibi usque ad mortem aerorum.

  • WHERE DO I SIGN?

  • The Imperium of Man... It's such an oppresive regime; almost totalitarian in nature - I would describe it as nazi?

  • @SomeBlokeLol Without the survival of the human race is uncertain.....

  • @SomeBlokeLol nazi as run by the british and its still working

  • The imperial military service are obligatoty

  • "And already ARE brave Guardsmen sacrificing their LIVE for the imperium and Humanit" FAIL!

  • @Fanatical86 Humanity is correct, so thats fail from your side QQ

  • Bohze Tsarya Khrani. What a wonderful song. Stupid communists!

  • Ave Imperator! Humanitas Invictus!

  • What's the point of humanity if you're just gonna kill it off? Why aren't they afraid of dying if they're all atheists who don't believe in an afterlife?

    The Imperium is cool and all, but I seriously don't like it's beliefs and harsh system.

  • @SilvahDot You sir no nothing of the Imperium in the WH40K universe

  • @SilvahDot well ur forgetting that its a harsh universe humanity now lives in. And they do have a concept of the afterlife, well atleast the Imperial Cult, they think that you spend it by the Emperor's side. And dying is just one of the many concerns of your average Imperial citizen but it certainly isnt the worst. And the reason its harsh in the first place is because it doesnt want to repeat the Horus Heresy and will go to any lengths to do so.

  • @thesparkkrazy I guess that makes sense.

  • @SilvahDot :)

  • To Arms my brave boys! Imperial Guardsmen all!

  • Imperial Guard Recruitment: "If you will not serve in combat, you will serve on the firing line!"

  • Amazing video. Made me feel like i really was in that tent...although i would rather go through the genetic modification for the SPACE MARIIIIIINES!

  • "The Emperor will be your shield.. because these silly armors we issued are a failure, but it's too late after a year of mass prodution on thousands of world."

    "PS - every sign of discontent will be punished under Imperium's treason and heresy policy. The Emperor protects."

  • @Panczekolada

    Worlds* crap.

  • If this is set in the future why is the film quality from the 1930's?? lol

  • @xGUERILLAxxxWARFAREx

    to criticize imperial propaganda is an offence punishable by death. GUARDS SEIZE HIM!

  • It is better to die for the Emperor than live for yourself!

  • OMG CLASSIC! lol Awsome flic bro!

  • The Imperial soliders will be drafted. they dont need any recruiting movie :D

  • @Misanthrop13

    it depends on the planet and whereabouts the planet is located. cadia for example forcibly conscripts troops from when they are youngsters, for the simple reason that they are extremely close to the eye of terror and come under frequent attacks by chaos. planets which are extremely far away from any known combat zone will have their own planet army but will not forcibly conscript unless in extreme circumstances

  • I've been looking up German and US recruitment propaganda from WWII all night for a presentation I'm doing in two days, and I run across this.... Totally epic... LOL.

  • what game glorified the imperium please somebody give me a back ground on these guys

  • @OrangeGriff warhammer

  • Absolutely abhorrent grammar and spelling in some parts, but looks good otherwise. Nice choice of music.

  • @IIGECKOII i didnt see any spelling mistakes care to elaborate on what i missed

    

  • @thereevesfellow "To long have..." should be "Too long...", "brave guardsman are sacrificing their live" should be "guardsmen" and "lives", "everyone of them" should be "every one of them", "whipe the xeno's" should be "wipe the xenos". Yes, I realize that most of these are simply grammar mistakes. But like I said before, it's still a good video.

  • @IIGECKOII how did i not notice any of those :O i just htought you were trolling my bad you have my apologies

  • @thereevesfellow No worries

  • @IIGECKOII low gothic is a crazy language ! :P

  • 0:43 the proof that the Imperium is catholic.

  • It's a mockery of the fact that we have come over 40 millenia out of the primordial muck, and yet so much ignorance exists that BILLIONS of Imperial citizens join the Imperial Guard based only on the promise, note the word 'promise', of glory and overproud, desparate recruiting films such as this? Sometimes, I wonder weather I turned to The Great Sorceror because the Wolves burned my homeworld or because I grew annoyed at the rampant stupidity all over the Imperium... Oh well... For Red Magnus!

  • You call us heretics but deluded brothers who is at fault ? Did the "emperor " not betray horus ? Alas many space marine brothers sided with the corpse god as did many guardsmen . Throw the shackles of your oppressor and join in the worship of true gods and start the great crusade anew !

  • My friend, you would not tell with such high zest

    To children ardent for some desperate glory,

    The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est

    Pro patria mori.

    -From Dulce Et Decorum Est, by Wilfred Owen

  • Comment removed

  • sounds like the anthem of the imperium, long live the emperor!!!

  • Amaze!! Very good work man!! Even me i join the 101 Cadian regiment!! I am on my way!! Long live the EMPEROR!!

  • center....not centre lol

  • @thesocalmike that's british way.......don't you know that?!!

  • We shall crush them under our mighty treads

  • FOR THE IMPERIUM OF MAN!!!! CHARGE!! >:)

  • to = Lets go to the park.

    too = There is too much broken english, all up in this place holmes

  • The music is Tsarist Russian Antheme!!! "Боже, Царя храни!" - "God Save the Tsar"

    I'm shocked!

  • I love this video, it means MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD

  • They make Eldar and tau tech look primitive.

  • Necrons are a bit more sadistic

  • @Sandblaze1 at least the necrons hate all life...

    Tyranids just think everything is prey to be consumed

  • Go! Go! Go! They could not have so many bullets!

  • Silly Commissar, I take your hat, and disappear into the crowd.

  • The Imperial Army does not ask for their recrut`s !!!!!

    They just take them !!!!!! ^^

  • "To long" should be "too long."

  • The language in this video is very low-gothic.

  • you shut up and do what the scary looking guy tells you

  • @AcAinslie He's called a commisar! Watch for his red sash and hope you get a rare female one!

    Guardsman:"Run! There's too many of them!"

    Commisar: ( . Y . )

    *Morale restored!*

  • @ariandynas lol i know and there is no genders among commissars....they're all just as scary

  • @AcAinslie A commisar who flashes the soldiers to restore morale is even scarier.

  • 28 heretich dislike this film...

  • Typos everywhere even in the description.

  • nice video

  • the imperial guards are very similer to the troopers on starship troopers

  • IMperial guard is gonna be in Retribution DOW 2 may the slaughter of the guardsmen beginn

  • No Imperial Guard Were Drafted By assortment of the Planets it was 75 of the Men would Be Drafted on the Planet and they would be trained for a few months and then sent to Conquest planets Death worlds So forth Man i love War hammer books xD

  • at 0:36 there is a fail xD it must written so ": but for everyone of them who falls TEN more must take his place" cause in warhammer a unit of the Impieral guard says that so then it would be better xD

  • im joining all hail the god emporer

  • for the honor of the empire

  • It's an Honor to be an Imperial Trooper

  • Comment removed

  • more cannon fodder in Khorne's name.

  • I actually believe the candidate was Grand Duke Cyril Vladimirovich

  • how did you make this bro?

  • @AutarchAndrew Microsoft Paint and Windows Movie Maker =D

  • @padaanza Very well done using those two then.

  • @padaanza There IS one SLIGHT flaw with this though. The Imperial Guard doesn't recruit directly last I checked, They tithe local Planetary Defense Forces (PDFs) for needed men, since those guys already have gone though basic and are marginally more combat ready and capable than "civvies".

  • Do you think they'll ever do that? Restore the czar, that is? They do have some candidates, although it would be a ceremonial position probably just intended to further legitimize Putin, former KGB man though he is.

  • @themysteriouscrumpet I think the romanovs are all dead. It'd be pointless to make someone czar... that'd be like making a random n00b king of england or emperor of japan. It's not really symbolic unless the rulership has continued uninterrupted.

  • Hi Padaanza, I really like your video. It's very realistic for the 40k universe, so I would very apreciate if you let me use it in a personal 40k CG animation that I'm developing, and that I'll publish on youtube. I'll give you all credits. Please contact me on youtube

    thx and sorry for my bad English, I'm from Italy ;)

  • I guess they wouldnt show a Chaos Space Marine in a recruting video^^

  • Sir, I represent the estate of the Romanovs. You are hereby ordered to cease using the imperial anthem "God Save The Czar" or face legal persecution.

  • @themysteriouscrumpet I guess you'll have to go after those who used the tune for several Church hymns then.....It was published in 1833, and as such had it been "copyrighted" , the copyrights would have long since expired and the tune would be Public Domain . It would be more a "respect" issue regarding the Romanovs and the former Russian Imperial House. The Russians very nearly adopted the tune of "God Save the Tsar" for their new anthem following the fall of the Soviet Union.

  • lol its just like starship troopers

  • 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.

  • @alpha2964 What a rousing little speech, Govenor. Unfortunatly your faulse emperor can't touch us here.

  • It's awesome but the spelling ruins it. Should be redone :D

  • God Save The Tsar? Really?

  • Your spelling is an insult to the Master of Mankind. Report to your local Commissariat immediately for assignment to penal battalion.

  • GLORY FOR THE FIRST MAN TO DIE, CHARGE!

  • centre?

  • 15 hours is the average lifespan for a gaurdsman...hell of a lot  better than 14!

  • @soundhitman Actually the Codex says 15 minutes combat time on average.

  • what do i do? i say screw this im going to a space marine recruiting station!!

  • @Wolfantom

    I´m not sure joining the Space Marines is that much better actually considering the low probability of surviving all the implants, chemical & psychological 'engineering' just to become eligable to join. Ofcourse the survival chance if you survive that process is about a billion times safer then to be a Imperial Guardsman so it might just be worth it if survival is more important then retaining your humanity.

  • what would i do?

    If i tried to leave the Commissar would have me killed.

    So I would Join and die later...

  • Besides the grammatical errors, this was quite nicely done. Great film :)

  • Боже Императора Храни ! ))) и Землю Родную !!! ! на славу, на славу Нам !

  • emperor protects!

  • i can only say...WAAAAGH! XD the emperor won't serve them much as a shield 'cos the orks will knock them all out!!!

  • sign me up!

  • For Emperor and Imperium! We are Walhalla 796n and we will hold the line!

  • I WILL TAKE PLACE.

  • at 0:18 there is a pic of a chaos space marine, most of the imperium actually don't know of their existance, a cunning ploy made by the high lords of terra stopping superstition and uprising...
