Thanks @Majorkill. I know its hard to squeeze content out, especially stuff that hasnt been covered....but your style is good, you're a "bro" and as Warhammer 40k reaches its peak popularity Im sure youll be able to capitalize! Hell, look st the Major-mini's and Cosplay calendar.....who else could pull that off *BUT* you?! Thanks for making a space us Nerd-bro's man!
well actually.. The Mona Lisa isn´t as big as depicted. It´s actually rather small. Yes, I am that guy. Btw. Nice to hear you got into Berghain, my dude. I´ve been more or less ´living´ there for a couple of years.
@@przemysawseredyszyn1405 I was looking for someone to finally point that out. Idk the reference mentionned in video, but if no mistake the writer has no knowledge on that.
Don't like being that guy, but 11th century was too early for the style the Grey Knights use. Theirs is more like 14th to 15th century design. Yes I am a nerd. But we're all nerds here, so f off.
One thing i note is that in Know No Fear an Ultramarine says he has read, among other things, ”his von clausewitz”. Clausewitz was a prussian officer during the 1800s who’s work ”On war” is to this day used during officer training
On War is more of a political work than something applicable to strategy and tactics. It doesn't have much relevance to doctrine from the perspective of a soldier.
@@greyfells2829 Amateurs study tactics and strategies exclusively. Professionals study logistics. And logistics, as well as securing supply-lines by politics aswell as other means is a big part of Von Clausewitz' works.
I feel like the items in the Emperor's collection have more sentimental value because it's likely that he was quite literally there when they were conceived
@@Genburthing He was born in 8000bc which is far after the first human, Ollanius Pius is actually older at 15000bc, so thus older than agriculture. Unlike Pius however the Emp actually did stuff during that time, so you’re still right.
I’d like to imagine that somewhere in trazyns museum there is a codex from every edition of warhammer. He just sits and stares at it while contemplating existence.
imagine trazyn finding the infinite and the divine novel and absolutely losing it as he wonders what god had written down the events that happened in the book.
@@sovietunion7643 I mean... so many non gods have some sort of future sight( prophecy powers, so to Trazyn it would look like like an impressive but overall believable work of a early human psycher who channeled his vision into creating a tabletop game, maybe not even realizing that the fictional stories he wrote down would play out exactly as he predicted.
@@hijackdallas6052 I used to read somewhere that Da Vinci actually omit crucial details/ insert utter gibberish into his own manuscripts that only he himself can decipher, so that others cannot copy his ideas.
It's pretty funny to think of the Emperor getting a vision of the upcoming Nuclear War and the first thing he and Malcador do is run around, stealing all the priceless artifacts they can. It would bring a tear to Trazyn's eye if he could form them.
Dont forget about the patron saint of the munitorum Saint J.M. Browning. The inventor of the heavy stubber. A weapon so perfect it has undergone very little change over the 39,000 years since its creation.
One of my favorite references is in one of the Ragnar Blackmane books (can't remember which one). He's a Wolfblade walking through ancient tunnels on Terra and sees a big painting or fresco of an angel (assuming it's Gabriel because I think he's holding a trumpet) and he wonders how the artist got Sanguinius so wrong.
I get the Emperor (being Saint George vs the Dragon) probably changed his size to properly ride a horse to fight the Void Dragon, but I personally think it's funnier to imagine an average horse being ridden by a comedically gigantic muscleman in golden armor.
@@mihacimpric745 so blanks would see the golden throne and just see some guy who is now desiccated and thin sitting there instead of some crazy god force? thats hilarious
@@sovietunion7643 Like with psykers, blanks come in different power levels. And it would take a hell of a lot of "blank" power to overcome the psychic might of big E.
Ollanius Piersson being a pious Catholic and also older than the Emperor, implies that he could very, very well have met at least the Apostles or even Jesus himself, and, after hearing them out or very well meeting Jesus, became a diehard, unfaltering Catholic for tens of thousands of years. Imagine going down THAT massive rabbit hole that creates.
Fun Fact: Jesus is historically proven to exist. Theirs many historical documents about him including a general back then talking about this Jesus guy whose creating a new religion. Even his disciples and how he died are all real things. What’s actually In question is if he was the Son of God or not as well as if he actually did all those miracles or if it’s just rumors and tall tales. Jesus was an actual person, he actually started Christianity and he was killed on the cross but we don’t now if he was what people say he was.
@@Broomer52 As an agnostic, I’ve seen prominent atheists claim that Jesus wasn’t real. But just think on it at a baseline level, a guy in a rural backwater led a splinter sect of a pre-established religion, preached something different from the orthodoxy, and was arrested and executed for his trouble. At a baseline that is very easy for me to believe, and so I have very little trouble believing Jesus was a real dude and firmly believe that the claims he wasn’t real purely come from feelings of resentment towards Christianity from militant atheists.
Fun Fact! Pretty sure The Eisenstein is actually not a reference to Einstein. But to Sergei Eisenstein, a Soviet Director who directed 'Battleship Potemkin'. The movie involves the crew of a single Russian Battleship and its mutiny / rebellion against higher officers. Seems to fit with the name and theme of Garro disowning his legion and fleeing more than the original Einstein idea.
My favorite thing from the real world that crosses over to 40K is the story of Pinocchio. In the Master of Mankind, Ra asks the big E why he lets the primarchs call him farther. And the Emp tells him the story of a puppet maker who brought life to one his creations, and the puppet called him father, so naturally what else what the Emp let his primarchs call him?
There are a lot of interesting historical references in 40k. Three more that I find interesting include the perpetual Damon Prytanis mentioning killing “the good man in Memphis” who is clearly Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Pope Innocent III being the Blood Thirster The Ragged Knight due to his claim of destroying the Karthur (the Cathars who were wiped out in the Albigensian Crusade), and finally there was an Imperial Army trooper named Mericus who claimed to have been named after a great warrior kingdom of the past (clearly the US).
The Emperor probably had a nostalgic smile on his face when he thought of that. Also I just watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit yesterday so that's a funny coincidence.
Two things that survived all the way to 40K: The Browning M2 machine gun and the Colt M1911 pistol. The Imperial Guard's Heavy Stubber crew-served machine gun has explicitly been mentioned to be a design that goes all the way back to the 20th century, and rulebooks have shown a Stub Gun that is quite obviously the M1911. John Moses Browning is the Omnissiah, yo.
Perhaps the true cause of the age of strife and the reason humanities history is so obscured is because Big E is afraid someone will find a server with his search history.
I believe that its said in a book somewhere that if you go deep enough under the cities built over one another you would actually find the legendary and mythical city of New York lol. Apparently the venerate it in the same way as The lost city of Atlantis
New York existed roughly until the time of the Unification Wars, though at that point it really was more of just a hive city than modern day NYC. It also had its name shortened to “Neork”.
@@Buttsmcgee069 its scary as it is surprising that places and/or nations that everyone knows about commonly woild one day be just some forgotten civilisations with names fragmented and twisted as time goes on..
Athens and Damascus are thousands of years old currently, so it is not hard to believe that in another ten thousand years they will still be there. New York is a few centuries old...
Two things seen here are sorta explained in the Heresy book 'Angel Exterminatus'. In the book, Perturabo keeps mentioning this ancient civilization called the 'Firenze' who were masters of fortification & he uses whatever documents he has of their work to make these nigh inescapable labyrinths. From what I know, the name Firenze is a reference to the Italian city of Florence. Secondly, an Iron Warrior character in the book has these vivid flashbacks to scenes of battles from thousands of years before, including one where he was a cannibal German soldier at the Battle of Verdun, who was nearly killed by a French soldier with the name 'Pierson, Olivier' on his dog tags.
It would be funny if Trazyn has his own "Earth" collection where he has, among the obvious things, all the big guys in history that "died in the field of battle" or "disappeared" suddenly. Imagine if the primarchs find the personalities they're inspired by, still "living" in statis.
I remember an interesting point a Magos makes in one of the Bequin books about keyboards. Specifically the standard qwerty layout for English keyboards. He said the origin of this standard were lost, but still in use in 40K. There's also an ancient rocket with CCCP written on it, with no one knowing what those letters means anymore.
I'm so sad that you forgot about that amazing moment in Pariah (Bequin episode) when Bequin found/saw a toy/model rocket from the USSR space program. Similar to the one that sent history's first man into space (Yuri Gagarin), automated space stations launched from a similar rocket compiled the first map and took the first photographs of the Moon. A similar rocket launched the first satellites/probes that landed on the Moon, Venus and Mars. On such a rocket, the first living creature (the brave dog Laika) was sent into space, as well as the first machine (Sputnik) created by human hands into space in our real world, shortly after World War II. The inscription "CCCP" means the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - USSR) here is the quote: ‘Let me show you this,’ he insisted, before I left. A trio of small, beige items came out of a cabinet and were laid out on a cloth. They had been white once, but age had darkened them like bone. Their surfaces were worn, but I could still make out the trace of silver on the engine bells, and the red markings along the fuselage. ‘Toys?’ I said. He nodded. ‘Playthings. Models made for a child’s amusement.’ ‘They are of weapon rockets? Missiles?’ ‘Rockets,’ he said. ‘For spaceflight. Don’t look so surprised, Mamzel Raeside. The first steps from Terra were said to have been taken using chemical rockets.’ ‘I am aware of history, sir, even though the detail of the oldest eras is lost in the mists. But really? Vehicles this crude?’ He smiled again. ‘I do not think they ever flew,’ he said. ‘I think these are simplified models of possible machines. A primitive idea of flight. But I show them to you because of their age. Your employer is very fond of the oldest things.’ ‘How old?’ I asked. ‘It can only be estimated,’ he said. ‘They pre-date the ages of Strife and Technology. I think they come from the Pre-System Age, from the first millennium of the Age of Terra.’ ‘What? Thirty-eight or thirty-nine thousand years ago?’ ‘Perhaps. Vessels like this first took our species into the unknown,’ he said. ‘They first took us Blackwards. The family name behind this business comes from that outward urge.’ ‘I think my employer will appreciate these,’ I said. ‘What price do you ask?’ ‘I will write it down,’ he said. ‘And the markings on the side of the rocket ships,’ I asked. ‘The letters in red? What does C.C.C.P. mean?’ ‘No one knows that,’ he said. ‘No one remembers any more.’
@@ajiibshah3760It’s not even that, it’s just ancient history. People in 40k would probably know about as much as we know about the earliest hunter-gatherers.
It's interesting to think, nations and ideas that at one time were known by almost everyone will one day become so shrouded in time that nobody even knows about them. Still, a day where America is nothing but half-forgotten legends of hubris and arrogance sounds nice to me
I think Malcador having Van Gogh's sunflowers is really sweet. Imagine showing a guardsman who's been fighting for so long, in hell on wherever..... being shown the ecstatic beauty of Van Gogh. I wonder if Malcador kept something to the history of the work, the guardsmen sees a plaque - detailing the pain in Gogh's own life. But before him is the sunflowers, even there in the darkest depths he sees that beauty is alive. How Human.....
One of the most interesting and mysterious finds I think was from the novel Horus Rising when the Luna Wolves found a highly detailed map of ancient earth (I assume 21st century by the description) in a bunker buried beneath the surface of a long dead world.
What made it even sadder: no-one recognized it, and could not understand why a Dark Age of Technology bunker would be protecting it. Only the Emperor knew what the map even showed.
@@seprithlicastia463Yeah, and the geography and topography was so perfectly depicted, that even Big E was shocked, and confused as to WHY such a perfect map was made in the first place. Big E took one look at the map, and said: "Oooookay... I've seen the realms of Chaos, but this is a bit too weird for me."
It's a reference to both Sergei Eisenstien the director and another unspecified scientist so it could be an Einstein reference or a reference to another German scientist actually named Eisenstien
*Pulls out the original version of Rouge Trader, flips to the page with the stub pistol, looks at the illustration... of course, what else would it even be?* Thirty-eight millennium of service and ready for many millennium more. A classic without compromise. The perfect intersection of ergonomics, reliable operation and 45 caliber power. The pistol that forgot to become obsolete. The M1911. Elegant. Effective. Eternal.
What I like about Ollanius is that out of all the perpetuals including the likes of Big E he is the commoner amongst them he does not have powers of that of a psyker(even if he was one to begin with) nor did he influence the world by being one if its leaders. He always was just a common soldier in the wars he fought in maybe he led on some but he was still part of the faceless masses. So one could say that he is the living embodiment of the history of the common people so if he was the one that stood in front of the Emperor against Horus then one could say Horus killed the history of Mankind in the eyes of a commoner making it a reason why Big E saw no hope in Horus after that.
He wasn't always a bystander or commoner. He was Big E's First Warmaster. And then he betrayed Emps. I believe in The End and The Death we will see that Emps KNEW that whoever he named warmaster would betray him. Emps knew almost every Primarch who would betray him because of historical events, the psychic echoing in the warp means that events and myths kind of repeat or at least rhyme. Sometimes it is events in the past being repeated and sometimes it is future events rippling back and creating myths or legends. Usually it is both, history and future are the same event echoing back and forth reinforing the certainty that it will happen a certain way.
The idea that Ollanius Piers is older than the Emperor and has been around for every major conflict humanity has been in, seen civilizations rise and fall, humanity colonize the galaxy, took part in the Great Crusade and experienced the Warp and the gods of Chaos during the Heresy and is still just like "Christ is King." What an absolute Sigma.
Don't forget the fact that the Adeptus Mechanicus purposefully gave the civilian version of the Onager Dune Crawler, the MULE (Mars Universal Land Engine), an acronym that honored the ancient and reportedly stubborn Terran pack animal. The INSECTILE terran pack animal, as far as the Mechanicus knows.
I think I remember when one of the Primarchs (I think Gulliman) said something, which implies that the emperor is actually Alexander the great, and even called the emperor "Aleksandr" (spelling is incorrect, probably because of years of mistranslation in the setting) , I think it goes something along the line of where the emperor teared up by looking out of the sea and said that there were nothing was left to conquer, like exactly like alaxander
It's not impossible that the Emperor was Alexander as one of his many, many identities. After all, Alexander died young and suddenly, like the Emperor trying to sneak away after influencing humanity.
@@apossiblyhereticalalphaleg3595 Isn’t he also Jesus? Or at least hinted to be I know he’s many Great figures but people say so many idk what to believe lol
Fun fact about Mount Rushmore though: it’s survival makes a lot of sense. Mount Rushmore will likely stand in some form for 7 million years before the shape is completely gone. Since the carvings only erode about an inch every 10,000 years, the carvings would be pretty recognizable even in the 42nd millennium.
Unless someone shot them on purpose - that's how the Sphinx lost its nose and how the gigantic Buddha statues carved into a mountainside in Afghanistan were blown up by the Taliban.
I can imagine that some Rogue Trader or Inquisitor just has a pinball machine in there cabin as a sort of status symbol. Like look at this intricate piece of dark age technology that must have been hand crafted by one of the best artisans of old earth surely a work of wonder let me demonstrate its function to you
The Eisenstein is a reference to Sergei Eisenstein, the soviet film director who pioneered the montage, it even says in the book that the ship is named after an old earth remembrancer. He directed “Battleship Potemkin”, “Alexander Nevsky”, and many others.
I wonder if there is a hidden perpetual somewhere that has the collection of every game from ancient all the way to the M42. A story about Kaldor Draigo finding about Doomguy would be an interesting piece of lore.
I like the idea that the same perpetual uses golden age tech to keep arcade machines going for way longer than they should and then subsequently inviting admechs in to absolutely floor them in fighting games and such. The kicker of it is the mechanicus he does invite will be too busy trying to read inputs to optimize their own play. Reflecting even when gaming, they are just bots.
I like to imagine that somewhere, deep in the corners of the galaxy, on a paradise world far from all the war and destruction of the 41st millennium, there is place where a Call of Duty: World at War server is still running.
I think the names of old places being different is supposed to be like how language changes over time and doesn't always perfectly preserve the spelling and sounds of things. Many examples in real life.
Not an artifact from our time, but if I'm not mistaken, Fabius Bile is the only character in 40k that we can connect to a place that actually exists today, Ingolstadt. A Jermani City in the province of Bavarii. Also, I think Van Gogh's Sunflowers are still arround at least in 30k.
Belasarius Cawl misconstruding the original meaning of the Goldie Locks Zone and the Goldie Locks Fable is absolute golden.... Could you imagine the testimony of Goldie Locks' astro charts?.... Or that of the 2 brothers compiling records and accounts of stories of lost and hidden Lore before and of Old Night?.... I bet they would be so *Grimm* ... Probably pretty *Dark* , too! 😅
I personally like to imagine Imperial Nobles using genetically modified monsters and xenos to fight each other in tournaments based on an ancient traditional sport wherein youths would set off into the world and capture strange ancient Terran creatures to fight each other like Rodents somehow (at least to the understanding of the Biologis and other Imperial scholars) capable of utilizing the friction between it's paws and it's body to eminate massive voltages of electricity, and repitillian creatures which appear to have a gland which allows them to ignite gasses discharged from their bodies to produce fire. Truly prehistoric Terra was a ferocious place!
if the idea of a warhammer fantasy world mimicing one of our sport based on lost relics found about rules and description, but obviously twist them... look after bloodbowl and it's origin xD I found it hilarious!
Don't forget the very ancient and very forbidden Terran ritual duel where the participant uses psychically enchanted cards to summon various beings to fight for them where the defeated will be banished to the Warp.
@@matthew3009 now that i think it: how the imperials would classify some of those monsters? I mean, some of the clearly are no psiquically powered, like the one that looks like a pink and white dog with laces...
Eisenstein is a nod to Sergei Eisenstein since he directed the Odessa Steps which uhhh yeah, is an influence on basically all of cinema and was called up a lot in the early years of Games Workshop lore stuff
Just a quick note on ‘Eisenstein’ - I’ve always thought it’s likely to be a double reference; there’s a legendary film director called Sergei Eisenstein who’s most famous film is about a mutiny onboard a Russian Imperial Navy ship
The Venus of Villendorf. Is still around or atleast known about in 40K. During one of the Gaunts Ghosts stories, a character likens a fat chaos woman, to the Venus and other ancient fertility statues.
@@demonking86420 No idea, i only remember it being mentioned, by a non-terra human, so it might be a part of the emperial education if that is at all standardised.
@@MyGreengecko as an assumption I would probably think Big E has it, since it's the earliest recorded thing made by humans that is for a more abstract purpose(consensus is that it's a fertility idol, likely so a household would be blessed with more offspring or something in that line)
Don't forget the Tyranid fleets are named after mythological monsters. And the Necron Gauss rifle has got to mean that this physicist is being remembered as well. These are all names from Imperial conventions, the Necrons and Tyranids don't name their own stuff like that of course.
In Flight of the Eisenstein they also mentioned that it was also the name of a "remembrance. Almost certainly Sergei Eisenstein, a soviet film maker who invented the Montage.
Glad to see Oll Persson capping it off. Another reference to our time, from HH book 'Vulkan Lives' was the perpetual assassin Damon Prytanis talking about the targets he killed over the millennia. One of them was "The good man in Memphis", which is a reference to Martin Luther King Jr. Small detail on the 'Moon rover' that didn't impress Corax; it was a moon rover, but not for our moon. It was called the 'Titan Rover' on a little plaque, as it referred to the currently fictitious (but likely near-future) event of the first rover robot to explore the moon of Titan, that orbits Saturn. Corax's only frame of reference for the word 'titan' in the context of a machine are the giant god-machines. So he's confused more than unimpressed. This also foreshadows Malcador's reasoning for Titan to be the future base of the Grey Knights; he has sentimental attachment alongside whatever practical rationale.
I could imagine in one of the God Emperor's hidden vaults is the original model of the USS Enterprise that they used in the 60's tv series. Just a thought.
I think that, aside from the authors trying to avoid copyright stuff, ir could be argued the shift in language is simply due to the passage of time. Compare American and British English as an example. The United States only split from the UK a little over 250 years ago. Already there are differences in slang, in pronunciation, and even grammar at times. Extending this out 38,000 years, it's honestly amazing that there are any recognizable names or words left.
I always find it funny how the Emperor called Magnus out for arrogance when the dude was so arrogant a fellow perpetual who is older than him told him he was playing with fire and he still didn't listen. I hope The 2 finally reconcile and Magnus gets redeemed
I distinctly remember this one piece of old John Blanche art that features Malcador in front of a gallery which includes things like the Pyramids of Giza and the Statue of Liberty, but I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere.
Malchador was named "Malcador the Sigilitte" later to be "Malcador the hero". He was the last member of the sigilitte order who's goal was to search and maintain greatest cultural achievement of mankind. That is how he managed to obtain such treasure. I'm not even sure the emperor has anything to do with that.
Yeah the Nazis had something that managed to get into space but that wasn’t the goal, most of early space anything was based on WW2 missiles so you could say the first true spacecrafts where made later when we decided to actually make shit
After reading that Ahriman has a Viscont-Sforza Tarot deck, I found one and started learning how to use it. I'd like to think mine has survived for the next 28,000 or so years and he's using my deck. And thus the time-loop will be complete
Here's 2 you missed There's a dark Eldar that has a vinyl record with music from Bach in one of the Vaults of Terra books. The music makes the Dark Eldar cry a little if I remember correctly. Nathaniel Garro's sword Libertas is either Excalibur or The sword of the Red Hilt wielded by Galahad in Arthurian legend. Either way it is a sword that can only be wielded by the worthy as seen in the book Saturnine.
In one of Fabius Biles book ( I believe it’s the 2nd book in his series) I think he talks about listening to Mozart in his consortium while operating as it clears his head, but he has since forgotten his name so just calls him a artist from lost terra.
My head canon is that every time he says peace in the end of his videos, he really is saying Piss Oh also that Malcador has hidden in a vault the complete manga of One Piece, but Alpharius stole the last Volume
Don't forget the Onager Dunecrawler. That beetle-like war machine of the Mechanicus was based off descriptions of Terran mules, which as we all know, are very similar in appearance to a beetle.
Nice video! Here's more video ideas: 1. Do sports exist in Warhammer? If so, then does each faction have them? 2. Lore on Arkhan Land 3. How powerful is the Black Rage from the Blood Angels (this in celebration of Halloween)? 4. Does the Internet exist in Warhammer? 5. Do movies, TV shows, etc also exist in Warhammer? One more idea: 6. Can anyone else use the Waaaug or just only Orks? Anyway, LOVED this 😊!
1. Yes, beside Dark Eldar arenas, there are references to local sports on imperial worlds. 4. Yes, there are a ton of references to "Vids" and "XXX-Vids" in the Ciaphas Cain novels. Like always, comes down to the sector or planet you life in/on in the 40k universe and how developed it is.
As stated. Scrumball is a popular sport in cain novels, he played as a teenager as well. The Internet would be mechanics nuosphere. It's how mechanics get all their info and communicate instantly. TV, or "vids" exist everywhere in 40k. Local news and fictional shows are referenced frequently in cain novels. Also, cains assistant watches porn regularly.
The black rage totally changes a space marine. So much they are isolated amount themselves and on the battlefield are their own unit completely apart. An orc waaahhhh is specifically an orc attribute. Cannot be used by another faction or race
It always makes me laugh when Big E character creation brings to life a perfect human female shaman with maximum weight provided by rulebook xd And it comes back to bite him during critical faiulre dice roll early in the quest xd
Doesn't Malcador have one of the Voyager probes? And either Olly or Gramaticus fought in the battle of 73 Easting, so there's a chance I met one of them.
The Eisenstein was also named for a famous movie director, as well as for Einstein. The captain mentions this, stating it is named for two people: a Remembrancer and a scientist.
I have never played Warhammer 40k, nor do I know anyone who plays it. But the lore is so damn interesting that I regularly listen to 40k videos. I would call myself a 40k bro. Also, your delivery is really fun and entertaining!
Back in the 90's the Necromunda weapons pack for conversions pretty much had a 1911. Same with a bunch of juve models. Just checked, and one of the Cawdor juves has a 1911-ish looking pistol and knife 😀
I believe The Eisentstein actually may refer to world-famous Soviet director Sergei Eisentstein. His last name is literally Eisentstein, as opposed to a corruption of the name Einstein. I may be wrong though. But considering how some names do stay intact in other parts of the lore, I'm willing to bet it's more likely a nod to Sergei Eisentstein rather than to Einstein.
In the book the refer to a scientist and an artist. I still dont see how Einstein fit in here. There is Sergei Eisenstein as the Remembrancer and then there is a scientist Ferdinand Gotthold Max Eisenstein
Not going to lie, that version of the three bears story sounds like an awesome premise for an epic sci-fi adventure. Its hilariously inaccurate but it's awesome in its own right. In his favor the "Goldilocks zone" is named after the character and for good reason, so I don't blame him for confusing the two.
@@tarreth The zone in which a planet is far enough away from a star to not be too hot and thus inhospitable, but also close enough to a star that it isn't too cold and thus inhospitable.
One of the perpetuals also had the original version of the stories from Hans Christian Andersen that they took from Odense Cathedral, which must still have been standing after almost 29 thousand years.
I really enjoyed the names of the countries and continents on that map. It’s surprisingly realistic as well as funny, like Oz-Tralla being just Australia in a very heavy Australian accent but that’s how information would be passed down with limited recording. It’s likely the only records of Australia present in the 40k times are spoken accounts, so they’re having to guess how it’ll be spelt. Same with Gyptus, they most likely heard “the Egyptians” as “the Gyptians”.
Fun fact: One of the Tau client/slave races are brightly coloured psychic ursines essentially grimdark carebears. Its possible Cawl could have put them into his goldilocks story along with some ancient fragments of celuloid.

Especially since it's implied that the Emperor was Jesus.
Fun Fact: Jesus is historically proven to exist. Theirs many historical documents about him including a general back then talking about this Jesus guy whose creating a new religion. Even his disciples and how he died are all real things. What’s actually In question is if he was the Son of God or not as well as if he actually did all those miracles or if it’s just rumors and tall tales. Jesus was an actual person, he actually started Christianity and he was killed on the cross but we don’t now if he was what people say he was.
@@Broomer52 As an agnostic, I’ve seen prominent atheists claim that Jesus wasn’t real. But just think on it at a baseline level, a guy in a rural backwater led a splinter sect of a pre-established religion, preached something different from the orthodoxy, and was arrested and executed for his trouble. At a baseline that is very easy for me to believe, and so I have very little trouble believing Jesus was a real dude and firmly believe that the claims he wasn’t real purely come from feelings of resentment towards Christianity from militant atheists.

My favorite thing from the real world that crosses over to 40K is the story of Pinocchio. In the Master of Mankind, Ra asks the big E why he lets the primarchs call him farther. And the Emp tells him the story of a puppet maker who brought life to one his creations, and the puppet called him father, so naturally what else what the Emp let his primarchs call him?
There are a lot of interesting historical references in 40k. Three more that I find interesting include the perpetual Damon Prytanis mentioning killing “the good man in Memphis” who is clearly Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Pope Innocent III being the Blood Thirster The Ragged Knight due to his claim of destroying the Karthur (the Cathars who were wiped out in the Albigensian Crusade), and finally there was an Imperial Army trooper named Mericus who claimed to have been named after a great warrior kingdom of the past (clearly the US).

I remember an interesting point a Magos makes in one of the Bequin books about keyboards. Specifically the standard qwerty layout for English keyboards. He said the origin of this standard were lost, but still in use in 40K. There's also an ancient rocket with CCCP written on it, with no one knowing what those letters means anymore.
"It sort of implies that Da Vinci was some sort of Pysker or perpetual."
Star Trek seemed to think so.
I'm so sad that you forgot about that amazing moment in Pariah (Bequin episode) when Bequin found/saw a toy/model rocket from the USSR space program. Similar to the one that sent history's first man into space (Yuri Gagarin), automated space stations launched from a similar rocket compiled the first map and took the first photographs of the Moon. A similar rocket launched the first satellites/probes that landed on the Moon, Venus and Mars. On such a rocket, the first living creature (the brave dog Laika) was sent into space, as well as the first machine (Sputnik) created by human hands into space in our real world, shortly after World War II. The inscription "CCCP" means the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - USSR) here is the quote:
‘Let me show you this,’ he insisted, before I left. A trio of small, beige items came out of a cabinet and were laid out on a cloth. They had been white once, but age had darkened them like bone. Their surfaces were worn, but I could still make out the trace of silver on the engine bells, and the red markings along the fuselage.
‘Toys?’ I said.
He nodded.
‘Playthings. Models made for a child’s amusement.’
‘They are of weapon rockets? Missiles?’
‘Rockets,’ he said. ‘For spaceflight. Don’t look so surprised, Mamzel Raeside. The first steps from Terra were said to have been taken using chemical rockets.’
‘I am aware of history, sir, even though the detail of the oldest eras is lost in the mists. But really? Vehicles this crude?’
He smiled again.
‘I do not think they ever flew,’ he said. ‘I think these are simplified models of possible machines. A primitive idea of flight. But I show them to you because of their age. Your employer is very fond of the oldest things.’
‘How old?’ I asked.
‘It can only be estimated,’ he said. ‘They pre-date the ages of Strife and Technology. I think they come from the Pre-System Age, from the first millennium of the Age of Terra.’
‘What? Thirty-eight or thirty-nine thousand years ago?’
‘Perhaps. Vessels like this first took our species into the unknown,’ he said. ‘They first took us Blackwards. The family name behind this business comes from that outward urge.’
‘I think my employer will appreciate these,’ I said. ‘What price do you ask?’
‘I will write it down,’ he said.
‘And the markings on the side of the rocket ships,’ I asked. ‘The letters in red? What does C.C.C.P. mean?’
‘No one knows that,’ he said. ‘No one remembers any more.’

What I like about Ollanius is that out of all the perpetuals including the likes of Big E he is the commoner amongst them he does not have powers of that of a psyker(even if he was one to begin with) nor did he influence the world by being one if its leaders. He always was just a common soldier in the wars he fought in maybe he led on some but he was still part of the faceless masses. So one could say that he is the living embodiment of the history of the common people so if he was the one that stood in front of the Emperor against Horus then one could say Horus killed the history of Mankind in the eyes of a commoner making it a reason why Big E saw no hope in Horus after that.
He wasn't always a bystander or commoner. He was Big E's First Warmaster. And then he betrayed Emps. I believe in The End and The Death we will see that Emps KNEW that whoever he named warmaster would betray him. Emps knew almost every Primarch who would betray him because of historical events, the psychic echoing in the warp means that events and myths kind of repeat or at least rhyme. Sometimes it is events in the past being repeated and sometimes it is future events rippling back and creating myths or legends. Usually it is both, history and future are the same event echoing back and forth reinforing the certainty that it will happen a certain way.

Corax's only frame of reference for the word 'titan' in the context of a machine are the giant god-machines. So he's confused more than unimpressed. This also foreshadows Malcador's reasoning for Titan to be the future base of the Grey Knights; he has sentimental attachment alongside whatever practical rationale.

In the Priests of Mars series, the mechanicus has some sort of land crawler that is steered using HMS Victory’s wheel.
I always find it funny how the Emperor called Magnus out for arrogance when the dude was so arrogant a fellow perpetual who is older than him told him he was playing with fire and he still didn't listen. I hope The 2 finally reconcile and Magnus gets redeemed
Enuncia is pretty terrifying stuff. I've heard it's what gives the C'Tan their powers.
I distinctly remember this one piece of old John Blanche art that features Malcador in front of a gallery which includes things like the Pyramids of Giza and the Statue of Liberty, but I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere.
Could you potentially be misremembering the artist?
Malchador was named "Malcador the Sigilitte" later to be "Malcador the hero". He was the last member of the sigilitte order who's goal was to search and maintain greatest cultural achievement of mankind. That is how he managed to obtain such treasure. I'm not even sure the emperor has anything to do with that.
Apollo 11 was by no means "The first spacecraft ever built." But we digress.
Vostok-1 would like to have a word
@YurNikolaev V2 claims last word in first to space. :]
@@NoPegs V2 is a projectile, not a ship. Vostok-1 was the first ship with human crew.
Yeah the Nazis had something that managed to get into space but that wasn’t the goal, most of early space anything was based on WW2 missiles so you could say the first true spacecrafts where made later when we decided to actually make shit
There are references to Cricket (Grasshopper played in the Brittanicus cluster) and Rugby (Scrumball) in the Ciaphus Cain books.
In the 41st millennium, no one remembers these cultural heritage of humanity before the dark times.
Except Trazyn who keeps them in his collection.
Wouldn't be surprised if the Blood Ravens had some
kinda funny the cultural heritage even existed for so long in the first place.
I wouldn't be surprised if trazyn has every historical figure cryofrozen at the moment before their death and swapped them with a body double
If Cawl can fuck up Goldilocks I can only imagine what bullshit his vault holds :D
Trazyn has a shelf where he has all the original Pokemon toys from Burger King
If you take John blanche art as lore, then the statue of liberty still exists. Which if true it'd be neat if it was turned into like a Titan.
Heh, nice. Now I have the image of the statue using her torch to immolate heretics.
@@RJALEXANDER777 The torch of liberty, flickering though it may be burns eternal...
Now All I can Imagine is Ghost busters.
After reading that Ahriman has a Viscont-Sforza Tarot deck, I found one and started learning how to use it. I'd like to think mine has survived for the next 28,000 or so years and he's using my deck. And thus the time-loop will be complete
Just as Tzeentch planned
Here's 2 you missed
There's a dark Eldar that has a vinyl record with music from Bach in one of the Vaults of Terra books. The music makes the Dark Eldar cry a little if I remember correctly.
Nathaniel Garro's sword Libertas is either Excalibur or The sword of the Red Hilt wielded by Galahad in Arthurian legend. Either way it is a sword that can only be wielded by the worthy as seen in the book Saturnine.
"Many other writers and poets are referenced."
One has to wonder how they'll react if somebody brings up Lionel Johnson.
The three bears bit is probably the inner planets being too hot, the outer planets being too cold and the goldilocks zone (earth) being just right
In one of Fabius Biles book ( I believe it’s the 2nd book in his series) I think he talks about listening to Mozart in his consortium while operating as it clears his head, but he has since forgotten his name so just calls him a artist from lost terra.
I think Nikola Tesla would've liked the idea of his skull becoming capable of emitting an EMP wave.
My head canon is that every time he says peace in the end of his videos, he really is saying Piss
Oh also that Malcador has hidden in a vault the complete manga of One Piece, but Alpharius stole the last Volume
Don't forget the Onager Dunecrawler. That beetle-like war machine of the Mechanicus was based off descriptions of Terran mules, which as we all know, are very similar in appearance to a beetle.
Nice video!
Here's more video ideas:
1. Do sports exist in Warhammer? If so, then does each faction have them?
2. Lore on Arkhan Land
3. How powerful is the Black Rage from the Blood Angels (this in celebration of Halloween)?
4. Does the Internet exist in Warhammer?
5. Do movies, TV shows, etc also exist in Warhammer?
One more idea: 6. Can anyone else use the Waaaug or just only Orks?
Anyway, LOVED this 😊!
1. Yes, beside Dark Eldar arenas, there are references to local sports on imperial worlds.
4. Yes, there are a ton of references to "Vids" and "XXX-Vids" in the Ciaphas Cain novels.
Like always, comes down to the sector or planet you life in/on in the 40k universe and how developed it is.
Didn't some astartes (thousand sons?) Play a form of Boule in one of the HH books? They where throwing big stone heads on a field.
@@cdev2117 Cain also played "Scrumball" in school, and apparently it's a popular sport (at least in the area of space he's active in)
As stated. Scrumball is a popular sport in cain novels, he played as a teenager as well.
The Internet would be mechanics nuosphere. It's how mechanics get all their info and communicate instantly.
TV, or "vids" exist everywhere in 40k. Local news and fictional shows are referenced frequently in cain novels. Also, cains assistant watches porn regularly.
The black rage totally changes a space marine. So much they are isolated amount themselves and on the battlefield are their own unit completely apart.
An orc waaahhhh is specifically an orc attribute. Cannot be used by another faction or race
At least TTS Emperor can play Warhammer Fantasy tabletop games with Magnus, Rogal Dorn, Pillar Men Custodes, High Lords of Terra and Decius.
It always makes me laugh when Big E character creation brings to life a perfect human female shaman with maximum weight provided by rulebook xd And it comes back to bite him during critical faiulre dice roll early in the quest xd
I miss those shows. No ending to brotrip 40k hurts my soul.
Doesn't Malcador have one of the Voyager probes? And either Olly or Gramaticus fought in the battle of 73 Easting, so there's a chance I met one of them.
That would be ollanius pious
It’s the Titan rover, because I think it’s either Loken or Garrow remarks that it “doesn’t look like any Titan I’ve seen”
@@callumbrown9259 I remember that part but I thought I remembered one of Voyagers too.
The Eisenstein was also named for a famous movie director, as well as for Einstein.
The captain mentions this, stating it is named for two people: a Remembrancer and a scientist.
Some random psykers got a vision of the 41st millennium and decided to make it into marketable plastic minis
I wonder if Half Life 3 exists in Warhammer 40k?
It was lost in the Horus Heresy
No, but Skyrim has been re-released recently
@@macewindu3492Todd Howard ascended to daemon princehood of Tzeench
Techpriest Todd Howard: It just works. As the omnimassiah decrees.
@@GrubSlime just send me 50 thrones and a servitor will activate additional features.
Maybe it's just me having read it wrong, but in the end and the death is alluded that Ollanius is Ulysses and was a friend of Theseus
It’s all most incredible that anything could survive for that long period of time.
Everyone alive today still knows who Ramses the second was. But he tried VERY hard to make it so.
@@tenaciousrodent6251Same with Genghis Khan his looks, the first painting of him came 80 years after his death
theres still cave paintings and ruins from 10,000 years ago, from before recorded history.
@@tenaciousrodent6251 Rames was 4000 years ago, not 40 000 :D
I have never played Warhammer 40k, nor do I know anyone who plays it. But the lore is so damn interesting that I regularly listen to 40k videos. I would call myself a 40k bro. Also, your delivery is really fun and entertaining!
In the Emperor's vault. In the deepest, darkest corner. Behind doors with unfathomable locks. Keys long forgotten. Lays the last copy of the Bible.
In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, even the Emperor’s Wi-Fi connection is considered heretical - it’s been buffering for millennia!
If I remember correctly, the 1911 still exists. Would have been cool to see it added
"Thirty million world wars"
Back in the 90's the Necromunda weapons pack for conversions pretty much had a 1911.
Same with a bunch of juve models. Just checked, and one of the Cawdor juves has a 1911-ish looking pistol and knife 😀
Early sources had literally just a 1911 as a stub pistol. The M2 is also still around.
@@SomeNavySEALs the m2 will live forever.
I believe The Eisentstein actually may refer to world-famous Soviet director Sergei Eisentstein. His last name is literally Eisentstein, as opposed to a corruption of the name Einstein. I may be wrong though. But considering how some names do stay intact in other parts of the lore, I'm willing to bet it's more likely a nod to Sergei Eisentstein rather than to Einstein.
In the book the refer to a scientist and an artist. I still dont see how Einstein fit in here.
There is Sergei Eisenstein as the Remembrancer and then there is a scientist Ferdinand Gotthold Max Eisenstein
That was sick and very interesting. Lol Goldilocks was ancient scientist 💀
8:28 Listen, okay, I’m old - I’m not gonna get EVERYTHING right.
Not going to lie, that version of the three bears story sounds like an awesome premise for an epic sci-fi adventure. Its hilariously inaccurate but it's awesome in its own right. In his favor the "Goldilocks zone" is named after the character and for good reason, so I don't blame him for confusing the two.
three ursines = three bears, neat
Goldilocks zone?
@@tarreth The zone in which a planet is far enough away from a star to not be too hot and thus inhospitable, but also close enough to a star that it isn't too cold and thus inhospitable.
One of the perpetuals also had the original version of the stories from Hans Christian Andersen that they took from Odense Cathedral, which must still have been standing after almost 29 thousand years.
There’s a short story where you see Cawl working in his lab listening to Beethoven and Mozart
I really enjoyed the names of the countries and continents on that map. It’s surprisingly realistic as well as funny, like Oz-Tralla being just Australia in a very heavy Australian accent but that’s how information would be passed down with limited recording. It’s likely the only records of Australia present in the 40k times are spoken accounts, so they’re having to guess how it’ll be spelt. Same with Gyptus, they most likely heard “the Egyptians” as “the Gyptians”.
Fun fact: One of the Tau client/slave races are brightly coloured psychic ursines essentially grimdark carebears. Its possible Cawl could have put them into his goldilocks story along with some ancient fragments of celuloid.
