The GOAT at One Liners finally gets his own video! I never really drank the Black Templar coolaid but Grimaldus is one of my favourite Space Daddies in the entire setting.
The GOAT of VPN's is here for 83% off : Surfshark.deals/majorkill
I did drink the Templar Koolaid and trust me, Grimaldus is quite the dude on tabletop and in lore.
I call it a tie between Rylanor and Grimaldus
It’s off topic but Please cover the Sabbat worlds crusade
There was actually another survivor. A Guardsman named Andrej Valatok. He was also there when the Lions and Templars fought together. He was actually assumed dead in the battle. But he survived again. He's still on Armageddon to this day
When Grimaldus pulled a Plasma pistol on his own Medic, was that in the book or the fan artists interpretation
“The Hero of Helsreach!” The crowd cheered
As if there was only one.
I caught that too, good on you MajorKill
That was my favourite aspect of grimaldus, he admits he could not have done half the shit he did if he did not have all the help he did
That movie was so amazing
"We will keep quiet as to not steal your thiunder"-Andrei
That ending gave me chills.
I like how in all Grimadlus' artwork he's never looking where he's shooting because he's too busy looking for something to beat to death.
when you hot drop into the middle of enemy formations you have no need to aim, the holy bolter will fire true regardless.
The artwork at 3 minutes makes this comment null and void lol
“As if there was only one” hits harder than I thought it would
Grimaldus: "Your lover... did you find her?"
Andrej: "Yes, yes I did"
Andrej says it like she is dead
Is that the point?
Non chaos aligned Warp entities and magic would be a cool video.
I second this! Especially with leutins video theorizing Emps to be Malal I think should bring new attention to undivided warp entities and items.
@@anthonyducote5784 it's not really possible for the emperor to be malal.
excatly
@@anthonyducote5784 he kind of said that it was a joke right after
Definitely would love to see this. It's not covered very well by Warhammer TH-camrs.
Grimaldus in the Battle of Helsreach: "Well then... *LET'S MAKE OUR END MEMORABLE!"*
I recognize that line.... Ima gun di.
I remember that line. That man was a hero
"The time has come to choose where we will die"
"Then let it be where we will be remembered. Let it be where our deaths will matter, and give birth to tales worthy of humanity's history"
"I know of a place. It is far from here, but there is no holier place on this world. There we shall dig our graves, and there we will ensure the great enemy forever remembers the name of the black templars"
- A conversation between Grimaldus and Nerovar
Grimaldus: Yarrick's wingman and the Celestial Lion's Godfather
4:02 Q: “What’s above a legend?”
A: a myth.
Oh new video thanks majorkill
12:25 Probably a guardsman who survived... Most likely, it's probably Andrej Valatok who got listed as dead, memorized on a plague by Grimaldus, and subsequently went to complain to Grimaldus in person demanding he scratch out his name on the plague because apparently, the Imperium doesn't pay dead people. He wanted to retire and take his retirement funds lol.
For the Black Templars, for the steel legion, for HELSREACH!
TTS Rogal Dorn: "The Black Templars are Absolute Lunatics."
Hello Majorkill can you do a video on the timeline. The reason I am asking is because I just got caught up on the Eisenhorn, Ravenor and Bequin books. The thing that bothers me is that the latest Bequin book takes place in like 550.M41. This is really far in the past now so will the 3 book even matter in the overall Galaxy? With the big cliff hanger it ended on I'd hate that nothing would come from it.
"I apologise for surviving and breaking the flow of your legend Reclusiarch, I promise most faithfully that I and the 6 or 7 others will be very quiet and let you have all the thunder"
Were you not injured at all?
"I had a headache, then it went away"
This makes me smile
"I HAVE DUG MY GRAVE INTO THIS PLACE, EITHER I WILL TRIUMPH OR I WILL DIE! 𝗡𝗢 𝗣𝗜𝗧𝗬! 𝗡𝗢 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗦𝗘! 𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗡𝗢 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗥!"
🥲
"Were you not injured?"
"I had a headache, but then it went away."
Damn I got real happy for a second when I though he was gonna skip the add
The honestly makes me want to get that model of Grimaldus and set it up as the new centerpiece of my collection.
03:18 that's a lovely reference.
"Convincing the Mechanicus to use a superweapon"
is that what that was?🤣
Oh look, its "local priest who seems to be too angry to die". Love that meme.. ☺️
One question,
Did the guardsmen get their coffee?
HOLY EMPEROR everyone must watch Helsreach on TH-cam, it's amazing. The ending, i almost fucking cried watching all of grimaldus battle brother die but the worst death was the one where the youngest one cried out "Grinaldus, brother!" and gets flame'd
Damn now I wanna start a black templar army
You should make a vid on the tanks of the emporium (like lieutenants and captains and first companies and stuff like that)
Grimalgoat. Even I can recognise his greatness
Chaplains are just the rappers of 40K. They be spittin hot fire for the Emperor on the daily
Celestial Lions are too sick to die, gotta be alive
Glad surf shake loves so much
Grimaldus mace punching the enemies fart box
Damn those orc´s snipers are always taking the snitche....I mean most honorable of us.
The sworbbrother joke was just sooo smoth i can not stop laughing XD thank you Majorkill, you make live easier and more managable
One of the many great hero of hellsreach
If U haven't watched the animation on TH-cam
Definitely recommend it
Best definition of sword brothers I've heard 🤣
What books did the celestial lions stuff come from? I wish the videos had a recommended sources section in the description. I’d love to read them.
1:10 NO major Kill no one knows...
On the other hand I do use Surfshark... yep is really good.
Guess it up to the parents to get just-us since their will be no justice gary plauche style
Aw hell yeah, a Grimaldus video?
Dont mind if i do
*hands in my pants*
Ah yes, Grimaldus. The BLACK TEMPLAR that was written by ADB to question the will of the Emperor.
Grimaldus is the reason I became a 40k sperg.
They know what he said because they watch the first person pov footage of the siege everyday.
Helsreach is probably one of my all time favourite movies of all time. Seriously.
The animation is just beautiful.
Read the book shivers my timbers
@@TylerSmith-ti8qd haha Thanks for the recommendation!
It'll be good to see more of Grimaldus.
Actually i think there were 6 other survivors in the chapter, you can find the excerpt on reddit that mentions this.
I know you like the celestial lions, but how do you feel about their paint scheme
Im not majorkill. But I am Australian so close enough. I very much like the colour scheme.
Andre!! Survived.
That’s the thing about Armageddon , If you die you die , if you live and have a name, you are considered a true goat
What's happening with our boy nurgle burgle
This was the first big bit of 40k content I got into and it only solidified the Black Templars as the best legion. Also if his holiness The God Emperor of Mankind wanted a class of Space Marines to keep their battle brother secular then why tf did he name them Chaplins???
Loved the video and all but unrelated topic...where did he get that shirt? It's 🔥 asf
He tried to ban sanguinala.
I HAVE DUG MY GRAVE HERE AND I WILL EITHER TRIUMPH OR DIE!!!
Seems Andrei has kept very quiet as promised.
The whole Helsreach movie is peak kino. Please, if you are reading this, go watch Helsreach.
How about how to punish a space marine
Cool movie bro
IDK about yall but as a LARPer Majorkill has to many 1:1 size props to not being LARP asskicking as a Custodes for kicks....I REQUIRE CONFORMATION!
Tempestus Scions video pl0x
Can you please make a video about Clones(Star Wars) vs Imperial Guard or Transformers(G1) vs Imperium of Man?
I AM FUCKING INVINCIBLE
Didn’t Andre survive as a witness?
Majorkill, Would you please do a video on the Imperial cult? You have not made a video on it.
so what happened with the inquistion ??
Fucking Grimbo, let's go!
Andre told them
A video about Andres?
I had a headache but then it went away
Yo, grimaldus wasn't the only survivor. As Andrej say "I'm sorry for surviving and breaking the flow of your legend, I promise that the six or seven others will be very quiet"
The clip th-cam.com/video/s2WGE1L6WKs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0rsqTanI7XeffLS8&t=8833
Andrej is one of the few basic guardsmen to earn the respect of a astarties let alone a black Templar
I loved when he chant Hero of Hellsreach to him as he leaves and he thinks, “As if there was only one.” Grimaldus, and the scene right before when he ask about finding his loved one.
Andrej is literally my favourite character, I was so sad when I thought he died in blood and fire
Having watched Majorkill since his channel was new - Between his tone of voice each time, and how many times he dipped back to the _"the only survivor"_ concerning Hellsreach? I took this as him being sarcastic. As the Imperium has recorded Grimaldus as being the only survivor.
There in the last couple minutes he really brings it home, to me, that he's being sarcastic: when he points out the Cult of Grimaldus - who use a few things that Grimaldus said inside the chapel as some of their sayings - if Grimaldus were the only survivor... exactly _who_ told these people what he had said inside that chapel? It's the "Cave of No Return" idea... How do people always know what ancient artifact is in this cave that no one has ever returned from?
Honestly for me Grimaldus is at his best (and funniest) when interacting with normal humans outside of combat and just doesnt know how to interact. Like when he met with a bunch of high Imperial personel before the battle of Armagedon where they did nothing but talk about logistics for several days and by the end of it he was just miserable and his friendship with Andrej was not only peak comedy but straight up heartwarming.
"These humans...they remain a mystery to me"...this quote from Grimaldus to Bayard has clearly burned into my mind !
Not forgetting the croan of Vigilata. "I'll execute you for heresy before you crew even have time to soil themselves!"
"this is an electro magnetic pulse housing unit"
"what does it do?"
"it houses the electric magnetic pulse"
peak space marine comedy
makes me miss those thunder warriors with their dry humor...
Andrej is a warrior, they have that commonality
I’m right at this part in the book, love it
Grimaldus was the first Space Marine Character I read when I first got into 40k, and by the Emperor Divine Hair he was a total badass who inspired me a newbie at the time to continue to dive into the lore of one of my Universes. He truly is the Hero of Helsreach for motivating a dumb teen to get into the Grim Darkness of the Future, and for that reason he is also my Hero.
"Priamus! You are the last emperor's champion of the Helsreach Crusade. Now recover your blade"
Grimaldus.
The gigachad that brought a titan back from the brink, defied the Mechanicus by ordering the release of Oberon, and refused to fall to an endless tide of green xenos scum.
I highly encourage all to read the story of Grimaldus or watch the animated video.
Finished the audio book just the other day. Fantastic story.
I encourage both of these options.
Grimaldus: "Hey heretics, how's your health plan?"
Enemies: *open fire!*
Grimaldus: "APPARENTLY IT WAS GREAT!"
Oh I see what you did there...very smug of you
Hellsing abridged is great
@@25acpunderrated71Helsing? More like HELSREACH! No Pity, no Fear, no Remorse!
Finally, Saint Grimaldus, the hero of Helsreach.
As if there was only one
"Saint"? Was he declared as one?
@@prynczleinorparaiso35 a cult of Grimaldus was established after his achievement in Helreach
@@prynczleinorparaiso35 It's theorised that he is the closest thing to a space marine living Saint, due to his incredible amount of zealous faith, and the increased warp potency from opening of the great rift.
I don't blame those last few lions wanting to die fighting then try to save their chapter, the inquisition would've blown them up trying to just leave the planet. Though I do hope one day either Dorn himself avenges them or the Templars
The only way to save them, is to paint them! Then they will arise in the thousands!
Sad thing is that last surviving Celestial Lion became Chapter Master and was killed later by a Callidus Assassin. The Inquisition are a bunch of dicks.
They ain't dead yet.
@@thenerfkid9228 But for how long though. The Inquisition are still after them as we can see from the assassination of Celestial Lion chapter master. They would probably not stop until the last of the lion is kill. The chapter is pretty much doom. Thier homeworld was destroyed and they have less than 100 marines left, their primars reinforcements are "lost" in transit and even most of the primaris geneseeds share by other chapters to them got tampered beyond use iirc.
@@inquisitorsteele8397+
With any luck, they can avoid doom long enough for Rogal Dorn to return and, upon discovering the Inquisition's treachery, vent his almost unequalled rage upon them. We shall have to wait and see however.
Grimaldus wasn't the only survivor of the Temple collapsing , there was a guardsman called Andre that also survived , who would of told the story of what happened
Damn, you really are pumping out these Videos in the last weeks... thank you so much for that, I love every Single one of them!! Keep up the awsome effort and you will surley reach 420.000 subs soon!
I love that one guardsman that literally chases after him into orbit so he can get back on the payroll
Good old Andre.... does he die in the next battle? I forget.
@@kazansky22 he was reported dead in the battle but lived which is why he went up to the Eternal Crusader to talk to Grimaldus and tell him that he didn't die in the battle and wanted to know why Grimaldus said he did.
@@evilabelincoln3787 wait what?? Where was this??
@@dannymachin6192 its the end of Blood and Fire.
@@dannymachin6192 th-cam.com/video/lyGapG_2fTc/w-d-xo.html
Hey Major can you make a video about the coolest Iron hands characters, it'd be nice to give the chapter some recognition too
@UCYzXp0SNQocAxfZo0k2i29A the iron hands are men not woman you not 🗿
To make him an even bigger Chad, he actually returned the relics of helsreach, to the people of city, saying he had no right to steal from such a group of warriors or something of that.
He used kid's logic to make a Titan tantrum cease. He bitched It back up.
My man literally said: "If you don't get up, you're a Heretic. " 🤣🤣
Storm Herald: "I'm no heretic >:("
*gets up and blares War Horn*
"Have you heard of the Celestial Lions?"
*quiet sobbing* "Yes."
One of my favorite part of Helsreach was when Grimaldus used the chain that tied his pistol to wrap it around an ork's neck.
My plasma pistol is gone, torn from meat some point in the last two days of battle. The chain remains. I wrap it around the beast's throat, and roar my words to the painted ceiling as i strangle the creature in full view of everyone in the room.
"Take heart, brothers! Fight in the Emperor's name!" The beast trashes as it dies, claws scraping in futility at my ruined armour. I tense my grip, feeling the creature's thick spinal bones begin to click and break. Its piggish eyes are wide with terror, and this... this makes me laugh.
This.... Indeed makes me laugh
Funniest shit ever. This makes me laugh
Love the celestial lions....one of my ships in sea of theives is named the celestial lion after them (the lion who killed the warboss was the pride leader dubaku, he was a squad sargent at the time)
Aren't the Lions canonically mostly Black people?
Was just reading about chaplains which led me to read about grimaldus, gonna love this one
The "I dug my grave" line, probably came from the helmet comm's. I would imagine, everything a Space Marine says is recorded and stored for later use. A high marshal, general, commissar. The inquisition listens for heresy...everywhere.
The inquisition probably released it on other worlds to boost morale.
He wasn't the only survivor
@@muridtahmatgnas2184 andrej???
@@muridtahmatgnas2184
Then they had to be within earshot of his speech or listening on the comms.
So, did Grimaldus ever find the Inquisitor responsible for the betrayal of the Celestial Lions?
I think no, because i would fucking yell of happiness if he kill that asshole
I doubt he ever will. The Inquisition is shadows within shadows. There probably isn't a string they won't pull to keep the truth from the man too angry to die
@@DaniMol Don't be histarical. The inquisition would never do such a heinous thing. Everybody knows that ork snipers are very persistent when pursuing high value targets.
@@DaniMol those orks are indeed very sneaky, no one and I mean NO ONE has ever seen a purple ork before.
Hey didn't the Black Templars engage The Storm Lord and his Necrons where Helbrect got his hand cut off before Grimaldus saved him, oh then there was a space battle where they boarded the Necrons flagship before driving it into a sun.
Grimaldus is legendary, Helsreach is legendary (book, audiobook and the animation all). But as for the Celestial Lions, read/listen to Spears of the Emperor. It's honestly one of my favourite books from Black Library, and the Lions feature in it quite a lot.
Grimaldus is what I think is like, peak space marine writing. He's not an ordinary human, he doesn't pretend to be, but he still connects with them despite belonging to a group where it's not a common thing to do that. Grimaldus is an absolute badass, and was one of the reasons I got into Warhammer all those years ago.
Grimaldus was the only Black Templar surviver, in the novel at least. A stormtrooper who met and talked to Grimaldus a few times (and shows the difference in thinking between humans and Astartes) survived as well as a few other guardmen, but the chad says they will keep quiet about it because it sounds better if Grimaldus was the only one
I remember waiting for each episode of Helsreach. I've read the book 50+ times. Grimaldus is in my top 3.
The Helsreach movie was one of the things that drew me back into 40k! Amazingly done
Me too mate
Then gw killed fan made creations. Really sad imo
@@DasAngryBishop Apparently free advertising wasn't part of their business model
Ahh yes, Grimaldus. The Hero of Helsreach. One of my favorite characters in all of 40K. I’m glad you're covering this Heavyweight Champion of humanity.
"The Lions must not die! ... Their paint scheme is just too good!"
"I promise most faithfully that I and the 6 or 7 others who survived will be _very quiet_ and let you have all the thunder!"
Sneaky Andrej still tattled about the cool one-liners, apparently.
Well, they did let him have all the thunder. They just stealthy and _very quietly_ added to the narrative of the Legend that is Grimaldus.
Helsreach being the first ever Warhammer 40k book I ever read, it's story and Grimaldus will always be my favorite and have a special place in my heart. The writing and imagery was so fucking dope, the way I imagined the Shadow Wolve's last stand gave me a boner too as well as the emotion in the writing of Grimaldus' squad last stand in the chapel. Truly inspiring.
Always wanted a video about Grimaldus! Thank a lot for it!
As a side note, it's interesting that the head of Grimaldus' crozius looks suspiciously like that of Jonah Orion's from the Raven Guard (whose origins are unknown, or kept secret by the High Council).
I want to know...who has the blessed job of keeping the candles on Grimaldus' Powerpack lit during battle.
Ok, here me out,
Now we know that only one of Alpharius or Omegon is Loyalist. Or this is what we have been told.
But it might be a lie, both of them could be Loyalist(Considering one is dead).
Now we know that Alpha legion invaded the Sol system prematurely because they wanted to show Dorn the weakness in defence knowing Dorn will fortify it. So the loyalist of the two brothers was responsible for this and he died(if it's not other I'm Alpharius).
But after that the other Primarck provided the same map to Horus, despite having the knowledge of fortification. So he must also be a Loyalist.
I watched a helsreach thing on TH-cam. 3 and a bit hours long. It was brilliant, I think that is what brought me to your videos to be honest
I used to convert and paint black tempers as a teen, when the upgrade kits first came out and Helbrecht and Grimaldus first appeared as models. Never knew anything about either of them but your videos have taught me LOADS.
