    The battles such as the battle for Lysithea, are they why the Emperor decided to use Exterminatus in future conflicts? Enemies so threatening that they just simply need to wipe out the whole planet?

    • @OculusImperia
      @OculusImperia  6 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      I would imagine it was always an option, but that the idea of using exterminatus within the Solar volume was too heinous of the Imperium to comprehend. The exception would be for artificial constructs, like the xenos war-moon Sedna.

    quality : unmatched.
    content: mismatched.
    Unlike previous expositions, i found myself confused, is it the legacy of the raven guard, or its undeniably involved chapter master who's history unfolds. interwoven as their history might be, the records of mankind surely differentiate. Each occasion of individual merit plays enomous parts in the grand theatre of war that is upon us. It would be a shame to cut it slight.
    On a sidenote, i'm having difficulty following the theme of the "episode", even though i am not a native english speaker, i pride myself on understanding the many verbose swerves the english language might assume. Yet i'm having significantly more trouble understanding what is being said, and what is being meant. I applaud your usage of the language tenfold, yet wonder if less would not be more. Complicated language is not a merit upon itself, it is the ability of such a language to express itself in ways others cannot.
    I love your episodes, to the extent that i save them for cloudy days. I do not wish to be demanding, i only wish to provide information from a different point of view.
    know then, that there are no equals. must be hard doing something for the first time :)
