Warhammer 40,000 - The Blood Angels Tribute

Greetings. This video was meant as a short one to thank everyone who subscribed to my channel on the ocasion of me getting 800 subscribtions, but it proved so fun to make and so grand (not a short one at all...) that I actually finished it before even getting so many. :P
I guess you may instead treat it as an Easter present. ;)

Still, a huge THANK YOU to everyone who subscribed to me and bears with my long periods of inactivity.

The video is a bit experimental too, so criticism will as always be welcome.

About The Blood Angels:
The Blood Angels were created from the genetic material of their Primarch Sanguinius. As with all of the Primarchs, Sanguinius was genetically engineered to be a supreme super-soldier but was cast into the warp during his infancy along with his brothers, and found on the nuclear-blasted moon of Baal Secundus. Sanguinius was affected by the warp, and when he was found by one of the few unmutated human tribes on Baal, he had a pair of angelic wings growing from his back. As he matured quickly, he was able to use his superhuman powers and abilities to unite the humans of Baal against the mutants and become their leader.

When the Emperor found Baal in his search for the twenty Primarchs, Sanguinius immediately recognized him for who he was and bent down on his knee, pledging his service. In this, Sanguinius was one of the few Primarchs who did not challenge the Emperor upon their reunion. The Emperor then took Sanguinius and a number of his best warriors and placed him in command of the Blood Angels Space Marine Legion.

During the Great Crusade, the Blood Angels became known as being excellent shock assault troops.

During the Horus Heresy, the Blood Angels were one of the few Legions who fought alongside the Emperor during the Battle of Terra. When Horus lowered the shields of his battlebarge, and the Emperor teleported aboard the ship, Sanguinius was with him.

The noble Primarch became separated from the Emperor, and came across Horus alone. The Warmaster tried to sway Sanguinius, to turn him to Chaos, but the Angel-winged warrior refused, and attacked Horus. The Daemonically strengthened Horus slew Sanguinius. He had foreseen his death, and yet still engaged the Arch-Heretic, knowing he would die. This has endowed many of the Blood Angel's beliefs with a deeply mystical streak. Sanguinius' violent death left a strong psychic imprint on his Legion, since they partially share his DNA. However, this was a willing sacrifice that was made in order to buy the Emperor time and to give Him a weakness in Horus's armour, which was key in bringing about the traitor's defeat.

After the Heresy, as with all other loyal Legions, the Blood Angels were forced to split into many smaller Chapters.

All of the Chapters derived from the Blood Angels still suffer from the psychic imprint left by Sanguinius's death. This can cause them to go insane prior or during a battle, and they believe that they are Sanguinius himself during the Battle of Terra. The condition is irrecoverable, and victims are locked away until they finally die. This insanity is known as the Black Rage.
Rather than face a slow, insane death, Blood Angels will form those who have newly succumbed to the Black Rage into a special unit known as the Death Company. They paint their armour black, daubed with red crosses, signifying the wounds of Sanguinius. They are then sent out to perform the most dangerous assaults, hoping for a quick and honourable death.

From the day of their Sanguination to their death on the battlefield the Blood Angels fight not only with countless foes but with a burning urge inside them. It is the Red Thirst, the legacy of their Primarch Sanguinius, that plagues many Blood Angels with visions of death. In battle Blood Angels can harness these visions to evoke a ferocity that gave the Blood Angels Chapter its reputation for unparalleled brutal assaults. Sometimes however the Red Thirst is so overwhelming that the Blood Angels forget their noble heritage and completely lose control over themselves. It is not unheard of that Blood Angels squads abandon advantageous positions to engage the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. More often than not, these assaults turn out to be so devastating that unprepared enemy forces are simply swept away.

Świetne, naprawdę.

Mam tylko zgrzyt z tym 'skakaniem' po obrazkach. Wiesz, gdy muzyka uderza, a Ty zmieniasz kierunek w jakim pokazujesz obraz - jest to świetnie zgrane i widać, że pieczołowicie starałeś się to zgrać z muzyką, ale nie pasuje mi to po prostu.

Ale zbliżenie na Sanguin'a i dziewczynkę było w dechę, pasowało idealnie. :D

I bardzo fajne intro zrobiłeś. Jeżeli ktoś spyta się mnie o dobry filmik nt. Blood Angels, to masz moje słowo, że wyślę go tutaj.

Gud łork. :)

@VeeTpl Wielkie dzięki. :) Tak też myślałem, że przesadziłem z tym skakaniem, zresztą ktoś już na to zwrócił uwagę, ale teraz mam pewność co zmienić, a nad czym pracować. Miło, ze zbliżenia nie pozostały niezauważone. :D

Jeszcze raz dziękuję za Twe uwagi. :)

Thumbs up if you think the Blood Angels will be the most popular Legion once the Horus Heresy Series gets to the battle for Terra.
