@zeterzero4356 I don't want to be nit picking, but every crimson fist has crimson gloves. That's part of the process of becoming a crimson fist. After you finished your time as a scout you become a full space Marien by soaking your fists into the blood of your enemies. Originally Dorn cut his hand and shake the hand of the new space Mariens. But since he is not available and his blood is sacred, they established the blood ritual to honor him.
Astartes has a genuinely ridiculous amount of details, only a true son of the Emperor could have made that. Just the opening, with the fighter and drones, has immense detail and you can see how they rely on eachother so well.
If you want an ambush hunter the Raven Guard would be better than the Space Wolves. Or to say that the Wolves can’t, just that the sons of Corrax are better at it.
@@mattwilsn I think in the lore they're supposed to be able to move up to 60mph? I can't quite remember, all I do know is that it is said that nothing that big should move so fast
@@thepodcastcrew1113 they can move like Neo in the Matrix. Despite their size and yes, they can run fast, maybe not 60 mph but 30-35mph easily. Their motions are almost too fast for the human eye to follow in battle. Like a blur. In the videos they slow it down because otherwise all we'd see are blurry marines doing crazy stuff. There was a video that showed them as lore-accurate. Death of Hope. In the trailer fight sequence where it's almost a blur as they fight sword and chain axe and he keeps fighting even once his arm comes off, without hesitation or delay.
I remember a funny short story I can't remember if it was in a codex or a novel but basically a space marine ends up falling through the floor of a building due to the extreme weight of his power armor and the squad sgt has to call for an admech recovery team
Honestly I expected some meat and skin on the flayed ones, but the video is awesome. Great work! Also the arrogance against regular guardsmen is really on the point. They don't even talk to them, just wait until they understand their intentions.
Love the into the most. The "Astartes" Spoken in awe by the regular sized humans, right before we get to see them next to each other so we can appreciate their size
I have a feeling this Deathwatch Kill team were hunting that big Necron specifically. the Deathwatch are only deployed when expertise in fighting Xenos no other Imperial force can handle need to be dealt with.
This video really captured how "demi-godlike" the Astartes are in the eyes of regular humans and even the Imperial Guard. They seemed overwhelmingly grateful for their arrival and equally terrified of them at the same time.
I so fucking love the scene about destroyer entrance... Just hollow music of nightmare and this thing is appears, while the wall desintegrated slowly and his appearance become totally uncovered. And i like the lore fact about destroyers - this thing comes to you not for vengeance, not for clean his territory from you, not for anything another races could want from you.... This thing just want to kill you because you alive and its hate the very live itself, amazing
@@ijiwaruiKarasu Thank you very much! I can’t take the credit though, unfortunately! I’m absolutely delighted you like it! I’m hoping I can get good enough to make stuff like this!
I love the idea of having a small unit of Space Marines where each member is from a different legion. Also, good to see the Crimson Fists represented. They were the legion shown on the cover art to the 1st edition, Rogue Trader rules book, and the original plastic Space marines box set. And, because there wasn't a green colored legion, at that time, they were the first legion I chose to paint my minis as. Ahh, good times!
it's always the same "oh no we imperial guard we suck so much... pls call space marines!"- "here, i give you 3" yet it always works! Great video! cool ! wuuuuhu!
Prime is actually doing a series called "secret level". It will do one video game per episode and one of them is about warhammer 40k. starts 10th of december
@@masonharkness6437 it’s an official warhammer cinematic, I never claimed to have made it! In most of my replies, I’ve said I’d love to learn how to do it! And yes it’s amazing!!!
@@Emperors_Codex Yeah that is great and all but in almost none of your comments you give out the source. You awnsering to a comment; "This is amazing thx for this masterpiece". Like this " @ijiwaruiKarasu Thank you very much! I can’t take the credit though, unfortunately! I’m absolutely delighted you like it! I’m hoping I can get good enough to make stuff like this!" Where is the source? Why not give the source or mention it? Why not put it in the description? You look very shady.
Unique representation of space marines here, usually alot more crazed anger driven swinging of sword arms and blasting full auto, a true quantity of violence (which is awesome, often necessary, and logistically plausible for a galactic scale industrialized imperium to support) however the Adeptus Astartes is an elite force and their highly disciplined and honed quality violence portrayed here is rarely shown in 40k media. First thing I notice is the sword and shield wielding marine doesn't run over to the twitching Necron on the floor, after it got downed by the boltgun wielding marine, and stomp it with his leg or bring his sword crashing down on it needlessly. Instead he walks over and finishes it with a simple stab, no waste of movement to conserve his energy. THEN when real shit does hit the fan and he needs to close the distance he charges forward to engage in close quarters since he'd be a sitting duck staying at a distance with only melee weapons. Marines are trained to be expert marksmen and blademasters but above all tactically aware of their surroundings, the first priority is defeating the enemy showing off their skill is second. Sometimes they let their emotions get in the way and make non-tactical decisions but that's according to the personalities of their chapter and leadership(Dark Angels wandering off mission to find artifacts or the fallen or Salamanders helping civilians), in this example it was Black Templars whom people somewhat rightly assume are always angry religious zealots but they are full fledged space marines that graduated from centuries of aspirant, neophyte, scout, etc... conditioning. They are fully capable of controlling that characteristic temper according to their discipline as marines then tap into that rage when they engage hand to hand as seen. It is also obedience to superiors' orders that would make something like this happen, the whole plan was to lure it in and knife guy ambush it from the ceiling.
what's written on the shoulder and shield of the guy with all the stuff written on the armor? i never got a good enough shot to make up complete sentences
Dang, awesome 👏 👏👏 Was this just another fan animation? Because with this sheer amount potential and awesome content the fans are putting out, they might as well be the ones to band together and finally make an animated Warhammer show that we all want. No need to wait for Amazon to put there’s out first, I think I’d be even more excited to see passionate fans making more animations like Astartes with a complete narrative to tie everything together. I betcha even Henry Cavill would welcome that
@@PanzeePants It’s an official warhammer cinematic! I completely agree, the fans could make a brilliant series! I believe the maker of Astartes was taken on by GW!
0:54 _We better move_ WE. BETTER. MOVE?!!! The one and the only answer for the guardsmen in the presense of His angels is: "What are your orders, milord?"
Great animation! My only critique would be that, once again, a massively dangerous foe gets a 101 On Curbstomping Xenos delivered. Again, fantastic work - and - as a suggestion, next time, if there ever is one, could you do one where xenos aren't just punchingbags? I'm thinking something like BDSM Space Elf Witches vs. ...whomever I guess. Now THAT would be fanservice!
Crimson Fist - tactical weapons specialist Space Wolves - assault close combat specialist Black Templars - frontal assault don't give a fruck warrior So true to the lore
Outstanding! The movements are smooth, humanlike, and not clunky. The proportions are correctly done, and not uncanny like in other works. Also, love seeing other astartes besides Ultramarines; I'm still waiting on my Raven Guard stealth game, GW! Or my Techmarine survival/builder game! Or my marooned dreadnought singlehanded compliance game!!

The fact that GW essentially killed Deathwatch as a stand alone chapter right before Space Marine 2 and this came out is the real comedy
