Truly one of the most lethal creatures in 40K. Genestealers are like a blend of the planet-conquering parasitism of the Xenomorphs with a creepy demonic overtone(demonic in tone, not demonic as in Chaos).
Blood angels were all but wiped out. Not just the founding chapter but between every successor there were only a little over a hundred left after Baal was invaded by the nids. And then the primaris came..... Space wolves got a major boost as the lost great company was found. And that’s about all....
I am not really a fan of 40k, AoS is more my thing, but man the Genestealer Cults are just so cool. They remind me of Skaven clans and Tzeentch cults rolled into one, my two favorite AoS factions. Thanks for these videos, really infotaining!
The genestealers’ codex list illuminates a problem that I have seen with most Imperial army codices. Not all Imperial equipment is shared by the different imperial army types. For example, I once wanted to equip my imperial guard units with bolters. Bolters are Imperial weapons but, the problem is the army lists will not let you do that. The genestealers use Imperial equipment, but that same equipment cannot be given to the guard. The best example of this is the Atalan Jackals. In the Imperial codices, only the marines could have motorcycles. Even though light vehicles like those are standard equipment on Imperial worlds. I just wish the 40K codices were more flexible.
Bolters shouldn't be standard imperial weaponry they are reserved for the space marines because of the size and power of a Bolter. Bikes were also something that a regular guardsmen couldn't handle in combat because of the skills required to make the vehicle effective in battle. It sucks that the imperial guard can't have these things but lore wise it makes sense because guardsmen are weak and squishy.
@@OneMindSyndicate Bolters can be carried by guard officers, commissars, and agents of the inquisition. Even though they lack the black caripus of the marines, the sisters of battle have both bolters and power armor. Motorcycles have been used at war since the First World War by we “weak and squishy” humans.
Would bikes not be covered by the Rough Rider rules? And isn't the issue with bolters that they are more complex to make and come with religeous significancs as well as too big and heavy with too much recoil for an unenhanced human? Guards men can use bolt-pistols but you usually only see those on Officers. Plus all the models and pictures I've seen of non-spacemarines carrying bolters they've been wearing power armour of some description (Inquisitors, Sisters of Battle etc.). Also worth pointing out that Imperial Guard do have Heavy Bolter Weapons teams ...
Question (posted here and your latest for the greater waagh vid): When did the gene stealer cults get their praying to the star gods lore? I'm asking because this struck me as REALLY damn familiar when I saw their new vid. I thought it was something about halo but that was just the art style. I realized today that a book I read as a teen was the reason I recognized this concept. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliens:_Earth_Hive Plot Summary 4th paragraph down a religious cult worshiping the Aliens from the Alien franchise. So like who is copying who in this? This book was published in 1992.
@@phillipmcqueen3358 I think usually the more mutant looking ones are left in hiding and are supported by the somewhat more "normal" looking ones, who can go outside and work and whatever imperial citizens do with their presumably limited free time.
Question. There is many ideas based on human culture , such as ancient japanese samurai armour inspiring the amrour of the 40k Tau armour ,what 40k universe race would be heavily influenced by Native Americans, i personally think the Kroot resembled the tribes of Native American warriors
So are they human who use xeno genes or are they tyranid passing themselves off as human? If they are simply human do the Tyranid accept them into their ranks? Tyranid seem more animalistic in nature and don't seemingly display this level of complexity.
Blows me away that you guys post content every day and you still haven't run out of lore.Keep up the good work
And we haven't even scratched the surface of some topics. 40K lore is supper dense.
OneMindSyndicate dinner stop any time soon!
HERECY!!!! PURGE THEM IN FLAMES!!!!!
burn them all
Blood Ravens Battle Brother BURN THEM IN HOLY FIRE
@thekangarooboxer is that a russianbadger reference BROTHER?

Suggestion: The current state of the Founding Chapters.
No idea whats up with the Emps 4 step children, ie Sallies, RG, IH, and WS
we can try
@@OneMindSyndicate meant First Founding btw, sorry.

I guess Alfabusa was ready for some genestealer *BOOTY!*

Some of these guys rock a 3rd leg. That makes then wayyyyy dangerous;0
I’m new to the law and have fallen in love with your channel I’ve heard a lot about these guys and this is extremely helpful cheers
I hope we could continue to pull you back into the hobby
Part 2 please! Great video
The Creatures from the "Species" movies are basically Contagi Genestealer Hybrids, they even behave in much the same way.
I still need to watch that movie
I also need to watch that movie.
I am not a huge fan of the Cults myself, but there was some cool stuff in this video.
Glad you enjoyed

@@rodneykelly8768
Said bolters aren't full sized, and are very rare
@@rodneykelly8768 Those Bolters are undersized or at least the ones that Commissars and Guardsman are able to use.

I think the kellermorph model looks badass. Also how tf does no one notice these guys? They seem like they would stand out.
With the amount of mutants and augmentations I don’t think it’s hard for them to hise
@@OneMindSyndicate you guys are awesome

i would like to hear more about g.cult vs chaos pls :)
Genestealer hybrids almost sound like the locust from gears of war
Question. There is many ideas based on human culture , such as ancient japanese samurai armour inspiring the amrour of the 40k Tau armour ,what 40k universe race would be heavily influenced by Native Americans, i personally think the Kroot resembled the tribes of Native American warriors
Im not quite sure if their is one overtly related to Native americans. The kroot as you said are probably the best bet.
Request: can you do a forty facts on life on this kind of world?
Your reading Voice changed in a jellous way like Starscream.
Who’s that ?
I liked about the genestealer Cults I kind of find her a hybrids interesting well I kind of like the liquor but they're still interesting
...that was the drunkest sentence I’ve ever seen.
Suggestion: tyranids
@6:28 where is this animation from?
7th ed codex reveal video
Good work.
Thanks
Sugestion: broodlord / khane avatar hybrid from ghost warrior that would be rad.
Inquisition Inquisition all day today
FOR THE BROOD!
In lore wise could a genestealer cult turn against the Tyranids and gain there independence
No, the tyranids synaptic "hive mind" would bring them under control very quickly in the event of the hive fleet's arrival.
No because the hive mind always has control
Smell some heresey here
can someone help me plz ? I wished to see for some genestealer car that is said to be a limo where the patriarch goes in and it's disguised
If any became leaders to breed food...
Sons of Antaeus?
Loyalist Death Guard from the Cursed Founding?
Is there a church out there in real life that worships the emperor mankind since there are a lot of new religions poping up everywhere nowadays?
It's about time to will 40k into existence
So are they human who use xeno genes or are they tyranid passing themselves off as human? If they are simply human do the Tyranid accept them into their ranks? Tyranid seem more animalistic in nature and don't seemingly display this level of complexity.
I think only some are sentient, depending on the generation
try not to end every sentence on a high note when narrating.
its gets very annoying after a while.
First!!!
