With that last bit, one has to think about how scary Cybertronians would be in 40k. Imagine Alpha Legion, but instead of any Marine potentially being Alpharius, any of your vehicles could be Alpharius. They can just scan any vehicle similar to their size and turn into it, weapons and all. And they can transform into something Space Marine-sized on the low-end, and full on Titan-sized on the higher ends. And that's not even counting Unicron, who may as well be a C'tan in his own right.
I have thought of how cybertronians alone would easily raise the imperium’s tech tree up several pages. Since, best case scenario is that they are the earliest aliens that humanity meets, likely during an age well before the mass racism against anything that isn’t human became the standard as the first encounter. With a positive first contact and uniting humanity gets vastly more advanced tech, similar FTL travel Necron without needing the warp itself, vastly superior armies that can have cybertronians BE the vechicles for extra artillery or a quick escape. Plus with how long the average cybertronian can live would mean that tons of knowledge would be preserved and accessible for literal millions of years. Granted there would of course be decepticons, or atleast evil cybertronians so there would be still be war, but humanity has a good advantage even on all sides.
"At least a thousand years" is pretty much "in a span of Tuesday" for an Empire spanning 65 million years. That's 0.002% of time that Empire had existed. For instance, if we turn this into human life-span of... Say... 70 years. That would be equivalent of going completely off the rails in 50 days or so, while prior to that you've been nothing but outstanding
He’s also got two books, I’ve read his first one, throughout it, even while killing chaos cultists, he feels bad for them, and regrets that he *has* to kill them. Asurmen’s just a good dude.
The Path of the Eldar trilogy by Gav Thorpe and The Path of the Dark Eldar trilogy by Andy Chambers are good books. They were released around 2014 but they're focused on Eldar going about their day to day lives. It gives a brilliant demonstration on how cutthroat druchari politics are and how creative they are in their cruelty. (gaslighting an IG squad into thinking they could escape Commoragh only to lead them into an arena). Or the eldar path system and their self induced multiple personalities and how even the seers get fed up of prophesies of their inevitable doom. If I'm remembering it right the MC has to talk to her friend who, to her horror had become an exarch, to petition an autarch, who owed the exarch a life debt, to order the seer council to take her prophecy more seriously. The initial reaction of the seer council to her prophecy was to laugh and more or less say "first time?" Then we see how the Eldar defend a craftworld from an imperial crusade. Fun times.
I agree, Path of the Eldar is a good trilogy. But one needs to read all the three novels to make it really work, and the protagonist on the first book is not really likable, making it difficult to read for a lot of people that are expecting the classic “hardboiled 40k character”. The Asurmen book is also good and has a lot of interesting lore. I think that those early Thorpe eldar novels are more than decent stories, but I really don’t like the way he wrote the Ynnari books. It’s not even about the stories, I just don’t like the prose.
@@AstronometricGav Thrope is also one of the worst offenders for having it out for the space elves. If something paints them as incompetent there's a good chance Thorpe had a hand in it.
@ he also created most of their lore and wrote all their codexes since third edition. People like to talk shit about him, but he also created a lot of the cool eldar stuff. He’s amazing at worldbuiling and lore, but not greatest at writing. Especially when it comes to action scenes.
Let’s also acknowledge that without slaansh ripping a hole in reality most psychic shenanigans going on, including dark king, massive numbers of human psykers and chaos having easy access to reality. (Note: relatively speaking.)
Not really. Humanity was the second biggest fish in the sea, humanity was a megalodon, the Aeldari were a blue whale. Nothing could take either of them on, but the Aeldari could have taken on Humanity. Hell, when humanity was being destroyed by the Men of Iron, the Eldar were having planet-wide orgies, they didn’t even seem to be aware of the Men of Iron, the deadliest machines mankind had made were so non-threatening they weren’t even paying *attention*.
Spoilers: In the latest Dark Eldar book, Lelith Hesperex: Queen of Knives, it gives an even deeper insight into the more warrior aspects of Drukhari society. They still think they're the shit, but if you're a good killer then they will actually respect you and THEY DO LOVE. They're just so deep in denial because such feelings are seen as a weakness that they refuse to acknowledge it out of both shame and fear that it'll be exploited (by, you know, horribly torturing and murdering the person they like). ALSO, Lelith Hesperex might actually usurp Vect in the future. She's become that influential. Oh, and she works with Yvrainne now, so yea, Vect is a little pissed.
If you want some more orky stuff I would suggest Ork's Top 5 Practical Squigs YOUS NEVA HEARD OF or Da BIGGEST Lies in Ork Lore in Warhammer 40,000 both by GimGam Glitzdakka his stuff is really good and funny.
As I said on the discord by the way GW treats the Eldar they should just bite the bullet and just remove the line and say “after the failure of trying to raise the god of the dead it had forced Slaanesh to finish what It had started and attacked all the craft worlds and started seeding the maiden worlds with its evil. The last hold out for there kind was the most evil but even they fell a cult of Slaanesh had taken over and now ruled. the eldar are now no more.” Because they bring nothing to the setting except to be elves in space which they do terrible at.
@noahcolemen7675 then the imperium is fucked as well, now they don't have someone to team up with. and the setting loses one very few "reasonable" factions as well.
@ no they have the crons and ps I have a problem with GW uses and treatment because there last main release was about some eldar warriors and there big bosses, the hippy’s don’t have a army and the dark eldar should be a Slaanesh army. They are the one that is just there and if ever given a good thing it gets destroyed and then they are back to the start. And I hate their personalities because it’s just one for the whole race “I’m better than you, so listen to me”. They have not got anything that mattered since rogue trader.
@@averageeughenjoyer6429 If the only response to ‘GW seems to loath the Eldar and should just bit the Bullet and wipe them out’ is that another company treats them better that just proves my point.
Further proof that the Eldar are the true protagonists of 40k!
He basically did what every lore TH-camrs does for imperium

@samiamtheman7379
Unicron is straight up a chaos god, you only truly get rid of him, you would need to get rid of evil, death destruction.
Imagine Metroplex outfitted with 40K weaponry, terrifying.
@@lemonaded2481uh, that IS the sort of weaponry he’s packing.
@Azorees-oj5zr Yeah sure, but like, give him even more of that, and then more. Boom, 40K Metroplex.

Did not know about that soup kitchen bit until this vid.
Looked it up, and it's real...I like this Eldar. He can stay.

LOL scary Outer gods travel to Middle Earth kidnap some Elves and then genetically mutate them 😂
Kidnap some eldar to make eldar?(eldar is a name taken from Tolkien)
The waters are definitely muddy, but wasn't the Golden Age human empire considered a near peer before the cybernetic revolt?

Skaven won't survive the 40k Universe because canonically thr Imperium has some Catboys and Catgirls namely the Felinid
Difference being that GW will give us Space Skaven before they give us a Felinid model.
