For those who don't know, this is a responce to a taunt by a chaos space marine, that goes like this: "Pity the guardsmen. A weak sack of flesh destined to die for a dead god that never cared, it spends its pitiful, brief life, alone in his foxhole with nothing to keep him company, or to keep him safe, than the cheapest, most disposable of equipment. Perhaps the glow from his lasgun barrel keeps him warm at night. Me? As a servant of the powers I enjoy the delights of all this world and the warp has to offer. Power, it courses through my veins. The gifts of the chaos gods will soon overtake me, and one day I may even ascend. What has the guardsman to look forward to but a grim life, and if he is lucky perhaps he will feel nothing as my axe sends his soul to Khorne. He lives for a corpse god, and he shall join his god, as a corpse. I shall spare a half second to think of him and his kind. Then i shall only laugh. Hail Chaos!" The responce, it comes from his would be victim, a guardsman who is (as always) defiant to the last.

Being brave isn't being fearless. Its being scared, but fighting on regardless. Astartes are bred to feel no fear. The Guard are terrified, and yet they fight on regardless.
There's a clear distinction between being brave and being stupid. And guardsmen, considering the absurdly high casualty rates, belong certainly in the latter category.
"You can leave Space Marine, I'm no longer seeing you as I once did. For five years I have held the line. For another day I will hold this line without your help. If this is what you call hopeless and a waste of time. Welcome to your first day rookie. Now I have no need for men that can't fight."
“United against a galaxy that despises them simply because they refuse to lag down and die.” If this isn’t the perfect way to describe the human spirit, then I don’t know what is.
Not really in Warhammer though... during the Horus Heresy and probably after, the Imperium genocided xenos because they were xenos and enslaved the humans that lived alongside them.
@@overbouquin1999They had more than enough of a reason to. Humanity had endured 5 millennia of backstabbing, enslavement and torture at the hands of aliens they considered friends during Old Night. At that point, xenophobia becomes rational. Don't mention the effect without the cause.
The distortion in his voice made me think for a second that it could be a Necron. I know that within this specific text it's supposed to be either a guardsman, a commissar or a space marine but... I find the idea of a fucking necron of all things to appreciate humanity to this level that he protects one of them against a chaos space marine both funny and awesome. I feel like it's something Zahndrekh might have done.
I much prefer the idea that it’s an Aeldar Farseer who is meddling in a battle to ensure Chaos loses and he’s giving this badass speech to an enemy commander before he kills him as the Guard manages to turn the tide.
The fact disposable equipment in 40k is a Las gun that can melt concrete blocks is insanity, also the fact that the armor guardsmen ware are basically impervious to most modern bullets.
Their equipment is extremely primitive, people dont quite grasp what technology would look like 40,000 years into the future, (just compare the crazy leap in technology, advancement in a myriad of fields and innovations humanity has made from 1900 to the present) especially the creators of the Warhammer franchise who have some lame fetish with WW1, and as a result make Guardman look primitive and super underequipped for their time period, even with the circumstance of having to equip trillions of them they still look primitive af ( they look like WW1 soldiers with a piece of body armor that doesnt even cover their entire center mass, no arm protection, hand protection, no leg protection, no protection from the environment/fuana/bacteria/viruses,the elements, they dont look like space age soldiers that travel from planets to planets each with different gravity and conditions fighting a variety of foe). Even guardsman tanks and apcs look like shitty impractical WW1 tanks. They even have guardsman units that fight topless or on fucking horseback, or the Kreigs who run around with nothing but a fucking trench coat and a ww1 looking mask, its comically stupid. Just Comparing a Guardsman to a Halo Marine or helljumper (500 years into the future) or Mass Effect Marine or N7 (200 years into the future) and they look like shit and would get spanked by both. 1000 years from now or less we should already have something similar to an Astartes, just go look up the type of tech the military is currently working on for future soldiers and the guardsman looks even dumber. We already have weapons like the Bolters now, smart weapons whos bullets can track targets, even when fired around corners.
@@SagaciousNihilist their Las gun can melt reinforce concrete dude, that's an in lore statement, it's just that they look like ass next to tyberos Thunderclaws weapons, and the armor can survive a lot but isn't built to be the most min maxed protection, because the average life span is like 18 hours on the field.
@@madevilgenius7547 It's 15 hours and even that isn't correct. Whenever people quote that they always forget (or just never read) that that statistic comes from the book "15 Hours" and that the book is only referencing that particular war that the book is about, not all guardsmen in the galaxy.
I like to think that this this is the voice of a surviving Man of iron speaking to a Chaos-marine about mankind. Which in turn I feel makes the whole speech more powerful.
I'd say what would make it more powerful would be a Space Marine, they tend to forego the guardsman as flesh shields, so a Space Marine talking about them with such reverence is quite powerful
Sounds fucking inspiring, if I was there at those chaotic battlefields and I heard this, I would’ve been reinvigorated and made anew. But as the guardsmen like he said, I wouldn’t have broke in the face of overwhelming odds.
The space marines get so much of the love from fans, but they feel no fear at all. True courage comes from the nameless faceless Guardsmen and women who despite the intense fear they must feel with the horrors they hav to face hav held the line for 10,000+ years and still continue to do so no matter the hell they go thru battle after battle, I salute all those who stand guard not just for the ones they love, but the entire human race as a whole.
@@zambekiller if any Guardsmen regiments deserve to hav their own space marines it would be the death corp and taking a trench shovel and making it a chain shovel would be a dope melee weapon for them too
The empire of man would have died long ago without the guard the great crusade would have taken longer without the guard The guard hold the line and have done for 10k years the guard are why the black legion had to throw a black stone fortress at cadia even then the guard still fought while the planet was breaking underneath them they still fought
I don’t play WarHammer much, I tried to learn their lore and I just realized I stopped for awhile, I was watching some shows and reading about the leaders of factions, the factions, the emperor, and the war and it’s rich and I haven’t read+watch+heard it all. I’ve seen WarHammer all these years and it was dumb to never look into it until recently.
Dude this is why I love Warhammer, you embodied my favorite thing about my favorite lore so well im such an amazing edit. Thank you dude, im posting your vid everywhere i can
Chao: we are part of something greater, in service to our gods! Imperium: we are men. Nothing more and nothing less. In service to nothing other than our brothers and humanity's continued existence.
Honestly I think this is the best version, sure the music is kinda cringe for the first 10 seconds before it really hits you. The best part is the delivery, its not some dude relishing every word like its the best thing ever spoken, its someone genuinely asking an overpowered fuck how hes losing to a random dude pulled from a random planet equipped with the worst his faction has to offer.
Yeah the delivery was good and the music will seep in afterwards. Probably only excuse is, his will/spirit/strength to live and fight BEFORE he dies is something. He’s going out with a bang trying to duck up the enemies that’s trying to take his worlds and he’s not letting that happen while he’s alive and he will damn sure see to it will go his way and not the monsters even if he has to trade his life to stall the enemy like those before him.(these battles are crazy and I think I remember that there was a multi-galaxy/universe war going on and they’re reclaiming planets that they have lost, defending their planets that would soon fall, and giving the enemies EVERYTHING. I guess)
“For a thousand generations the guardsmen has taken your lives as much as you theirs, the only thing that warms him is the thought of home, the only thing that keeps him going to fight another day is his determination to keep you away from his family. The sounds that rock him to sleep are but the voices of family and friends. Despite him having cheep weapons he does not complain, even when his lasgun runs dry he use his bayonet to cut you down, when the blade breaks he simply pulls his grenade from his waist and pulls the pin in hopes he’ll take you with him! A weak sack of meat and bone can kill your demons that you send! And he does it not for his god not for some riotous cause but for his species for his, for his planet.” That’s just something I thought would be cool to add.
Almost makes me want to put down a lasgun, pick up a shovel, and rush solo into an orc waaaaagh with all the determination of an idiot. -Some Kriegsman
All of the might of Chaos rained down on a single planet. They destroyed Cadia and ripped the galaxy asunder, but the Guard still holds the line. Pity the Guard? Last I checked, the Guard was winning. So who's next?
'As the Ultramarine gave the traitorous Astarters a lesson of the horrors of what the Imperial Guard has to go through. The Guardsman whom was laying on the ground wounder, bleeeding, and beaten stood up not in defiance of death but the sheer willpower and courage alone. As the Guardsman stood up in defiance in the face of death the traitor Astartes could only watch as the being he called a weak sack of meat rises up as if the Emperor himself commanded him to do, the Guardsman's eyes was filled with rage, fury, and anger holding a knife. Possibly to end the traitor's life and as the Chaos Space Marine laid down below the Ultramarine he had realised. A man's will wasn't easily broken.'
Pity the guardsman? Why would I pity a hero. These men who give of themselves to humanity, These men who face horrors beyond measure walk war to war, face monsters day by day and choose to meet the next sunrise with a rifle in their hands. They do not have my pity, not only do they have my admiration but my envy. The resolve to face the Alien, Heretic and the mutant and not seek easy way out or make a run for it. Its courage beyond measure. Just mere mortal men holding back the veil. All so that his chosen angels have the time and opening necessary to make the small but all so vital cuts to win the war.
When i first got into Warhammer well over a decade ago i looked at all the factions and i fell in love with the gaurd because of they aren't super human and yet they face horrors beyond making them more heros and human than spacemarines which are just tools and have filthy habbit of taking credit on the bodies of gaurdsmen ( Ollanius Pius is a good example) or they make the situation much worse for the gaurdsmen (Vraks and the spacemarines destruction of the spaceport that would of made life for the Kriegers so much easier or some chapters down right hate unaugmented humans and just kill them).
Who is braver my friends? A super soldier armed with the most powerful weapons the imperium can muster garnered in the most durable armor they can produce. Or a man, a normal man with flak armor like paper armed with nought but a lasrifle and shovel?
hardest hitting video i have seen, when ever people say humans are weak remember this. a mortal who never lays down his firearm is superior to a monster who surrenders to save his own life
I know this is entirely unrelated but this is wjy I love Welsh history, It's the history of farmers, blacksmiths, and other people who to anyone else were weak peasants, fought the superpowers of Europe and survived, for over 2000 years entirely with weaker weapons, and even sometimes with no armour at all! Sheer human bravery! Their land taken from the mainland, their cousins in each lands eradicated and yet they survived against every possible chance!

I like to think that this is a Tech-Priest speaking, as he is fighting a CSM, and there are a bunch of guardsmen in the background holding off swarms of Chaos.
@@mapleflag6518 It really fits an imperial saint guardsmen best. I like to imagine that a CSM gibs a guardsman and says it then the emperor possesses him, brings him back from the dead like gulliman, and says that.
i can se this as a guardsman with balls to spare spiting pure facts in the face of abbadon himself within earshot of astartes and chaos marines alike all remebering him as that one son of a gun that verbally shat al over the warmaster
A soldier created only for war with nothing to truly fight for is less lethal than a soldier born and raised not for war but for everyday life that joined the army and has everything to fight for and then there’s the soldier that’s the same as the last with everything to fight for except nothing to lose he is the most deadly soldier he has something to keep him fighting yet no reason to fear death either
I like to think that this is, of all people, a Magos of the AdMech speaking. Meek amd overrun, the Imperial Guard defending his temple being slaughtered, yet he stands by them in the face of monsters.
Humanity fights for the same reason the Necrontyr did: We refuse to lay down and die. But instead of immortalizing ourselves into machine (although those techpriests do get freaky on mars) through the unnatural powers of C'tan, We fight to create a galaxy without death. Let me remind you, brothers and sisters of the Imperium: The planet of Cadia broke before the Guardsmen did.
And so shall the warp if it is needed, guard stands strong. Even if it means standing on a single leg or arm, even if it means strapping ourselves to a bloody space marine just to stay up, our bodies with fall before our weapons will
"We were born to inherit the stars" chants the Guardsman as blood pours from their missing limbs and their Lasgun slowly loses power just like the Guardsman's life. "We were born to inherit the stars... We were born to... to ... inherit sta..."

When i first got into Warhammer well over a decade ago i looked at all the factions and i fell in love with the gaurd because of they aren't super human and yet they face horrors beyond making them more heros and human than spacemarines which are just tools and have filthy habbit of taking credit on the bodies of gaurdsmen ( Ollanius Pius is a good example) or they make the situation much worse for the gaurdsmen (Vraks and the spacemarines destruction of the spaceport that would of made life for the Kriegers so much easier or some chapters down right hate unaugmented humans and just kill them).
Who is braver my friends?
A super soldier armed with the most powerful weapons the imperium can muster garnered in the most durable armor they can produce.
Or a man, a normal man with flak armor like paper armed with nought but a lasrifle and shovel?
hardest hitting video i have seen, when ever people say humans are weak remember this.
a mortal who never lays down his firearm is superior to a monster who surrenders to save his own life
An American saying to add to this is that “a man who surrenders their freedom for security deserves and earns neither”
This was a huge inspiration to the song "The Indomitable Guardsman Spirit"
I am a tryanid fan but I will always have respect for any krieg
pity the guard not, for their courage, their will, and their loyalty to the emperor, shall never be matched, not even by those of the astartes
Holy crap, that goes hard. If someone ever makes a Warhammer 40k movie, they NEED to use that.
This is a better ad than any military ad I have seen in recent years
I know this is entirely unrelated but this is wjy I love Welsh history,
It's the history of farmers, blacksmiths, and other people who to anyone else were weak peasants, fought the superpowers of Europe and survived, for over 2000 years entirely with weaker weapons, and even sometimes with no armour at all! Sheer human bravery!
Their land taken from the mainland, their cousins in each lands eradicated and yet they survived against every possible chance!
Interesting comparison, good point I agree.
@@bobjoneswof thank you for honestly being a decent person and not being like everyone else seems to be on social media,
Where no matter what you say you will get criticized,
@@user-cx6pw6mf9h Yeah for sure, behind a screen people will just be vile. It's all so fake that you just need to ignore it. So it is always good when people will actually engage properly. I think the toxic people are just often the most active sadly.
@@bobjoneswof I entirely agree with you, the world needs more people with your kind of attitude, and maybe it wouldn't be so desolate of compassion and care
This is completely wrong. Welsh are closer to Xeno's than humans.
The Sun never sets on the age of man
Throne damn right, respect the Guard
Which source is the speech from?
type "pity the guardsman " in search
This hits hard
chaos boi throwing tantrum like damn i got feelings too ...
*runs back into warp
What a remarkable edit... thank you!
Grab your flashlights bois
These chaos marines aren't gonna disembowel themselves -___-
It's on us to remind the xenos whos truly made in the image of God.
I legit shed manly tears when seeing this
this goes unreasonably hard.
I like to think that this is a Tech-Priest speaking, as he is fighting a CSM, and there are a bunch of guardsmen in the background holding off swarms of Chaos.
No that doesn’t fit a tech preist. It fits a space marine better.
@@mapleflag6518 It really fits an imperial saint guardsmen best. I like to imagine that a CSM gibs a guardsman and says it then the emperor possesses him, brings him back from the dead like gulliman, and says that.
i can se this as a guardsman with balls to spare spiting pure facts in the face of abbadon himself within earshot of astartes and chaos marines alike all remebering him as that one son of a gun that verbally shat al over the warmaster
A soldier created only for war with nothing to truly fight for is less lethal than a soldier born and raised not for war but for everyday life that joined the army and has everything to fight for and then there’s the soldier that’s the same as the last with everything to fight for except nothing to lose he is the most deadly soldier he has something to keep him fighting yet no reason to fear death either
I there’s ever a movie about the imperial guard, this speech better be in the trailer
I am fighting two seperate wars agains the same vasall federation in Stellaris for 39 and 34 years right now.
I need this.
FOR HUMANITY! FOR THE EMPEROR!
Oh hey, it's dude
@@nalack531 Thanks!
Damn listening to this really does get you motivated.
Since it wasn't mentioned in the description, the voice actor who did this is Christopher Tester, who also voiced Heinrix in Rogue Trader.
Yeah I forgot to add it, sorry
A: What’s the song
B: HOLY HELL, THIS IS AWESOME
Warriors-imagine dragons
@@ricardoandre7049it's not
@@CatYah00It is though, it's the Season 20 League version
The stars are our birthright,,, we need only show them
"the planet is falling apart, you going to stand until its you dies" guardsman's: "YES!"
we should let some Space Marines here this.
also the scene where the salamander fire in front of the trench while Guardsmen rushed was so epic
This is why I love warhammer
i love the speech but i hate that its so pitch shifted.
I think that the shift in pitch gives more emotions to the speech. You can feel the rage raising and how the talker tries to stay composed
The aliens really though adrenaline and the indomitable human spirit were myths 😆
I like to think that this is, of all people, a Magos of the AdMech speaking. Meek amd overrun, the Imperial Guard defending his temple being slaughtered, yet he stands by them in the face of monsters.
Watching this made me enlist to army
"HA. You filthy traitor... You've been gone so long that even your soul has forgotten the indomitable Human spirit."
I love this so much. bless the throne
Aliens: "We come in peace ❤"
Humanity:
Saving this to use for some of my writing. This'll be real fitting for my ranger.
The indomitable human SPIRIT 😤
NaturallyRP is so good, I love his WH40k quotes
This is far too motivational for what it really is
Humanity fights for the same reason the Necrontyr did: We refuse to lay down and die. But instead of immortalizing ourselves into machine (although those techpriests do get freaky on mars) through the unnatural powers of C'tan, We fight to create a galaxy without death.
Let me remind you, brothers and sisters of the Imperium:
The planet of Cadia broke before the Guardsmen did.
And so shall the warp if it is needed, guard stands strong. Even if it means standing on a single leg or arm, even if it means strapping ourselves to a bloody space marine just to stay up, our bodies with fall before our weapons will
He holds the line, he has held the line for ten thousand years…what’s your excuse?…monster

I love that guardswoman. :-)
I'd recognize Chris Valenti's voice anywhere- this man is the greatest at creating monologues like this-
Ничего не могу с собой поделать, я смотрю это видео уже вотрой вечер и уже почти сломал кнопку повтора.
I’m no Warhammer fan, in fact I know nothing about it save for its existence, but this makes me want to fight and die for the Imperium.
I honestly think humanity is the only species that will run into death, knowing thag will die without a doubt, but fight like victory is in reach
Making this my new alarm
I rarely ever like videos, but this one deserved it. Well done @Nalack531. Good editing, good cuts, good music, good video.
that was the most motivational speech I heard in AGES
This is incredible
"We were born to inherit the stars" chants the Guardsman as blood pours from their missing limbs and their Lasgun slowly loses power just like the Guardsman's life. "We were born to inherit the stars... We were born to... to ... inherit sta..."
And for 10k more WE WILL HOLD!!
Shit, that was good. Like, really fucking good.
my gym playlist
Honestly for how grim dark the hope is that of humanity
We were born to conquer the stars
Im fucking crying, thats beautiful
