Fun fact: If you actually help the Guardsmen finish off the enemies that they are fighting in this level, they'll actually follow you up to the command relay that you need to secure. This is the only mission in Chaos Rising that they do that, though.
Kyras before Dark Crusade: Thule, bring the Blood Ravens to Kronus and purge the planet to protect the secret of our chapter. Carry out the order even if the Imperial Guard stand in your way. Blood Raven during Chaos Rising: Chapter master! Chaos forces threating our recruiting worlds. The Black Legion's commander even mocked us and the Emperor himself. Kyras: Just fall back. We don't fight with the Black Legion. If I'd be a Blood Raven I'd be like: bro, are you a heretic or a fuckin' coward?
Some are badasfully skilled (drop-troops such as stormtroopers or elysians, harakoni...), some are there to make the enemy run out of ammo and slam him with the sheer mass of bodies (death korps, vallhalans...) some are your modern day army in quality (cadians).
Thaddeus: We beat back the Tyranids, you will fare no better! Araghast: empty bravado will not save you strippling Me: big words coming from a "nobody" chaos lord with halfass megatron trope
@woodwyrm The Grey Knights Codex also the Tyranids attacking a planet while some daemons tried to turn it into a daemon world, but neither of them won since the planet was hit with an exterminatus.
@dragonstormx to Araghast, who may have lived for more than thousand years, such a claim is but hot air from the mouth of a loyalist. Perhaps he simply have never faced Tyranids before to realise their threat?
Not the Tanith, at any rate. They're more of a "sneak up behind you and stab you in the neck with straight silver while your buddies all get sniped to pieces" sort of Guard regiment.
Blabla, Aragast is some big headed Chaos lord that probably just won a few victories over a bunch of badly defended worlds. Really, what kind of idiot thinks a good response to beating a Tyranid invasion is calling it empty bravado?

Both it turns out
to be fair, the chapter is heavily depleted at this point and couldn't afford another protracted conflict
@@justinokraski3796 And you know what depletes it even more? Giving up recruiting worlds to chaos.
@@warhawk9566 Indeed to be a heretic since discovery in the Judgement of Carrion
Davian "Too cool for Schola Progenium" Thule
Getting the best lines since 40,000 A.D.
"Then we will burn it to ash" - Davian Thule
Damn to be sure to be sure :D
Shame Araghast was cut short.
He was a capable opponent
Rustymcnut yep, and instead we got Blum Eliphas very sad.
but it shows eliphas awesomeness in that he had it with taking orders from him
I'm always sad that Davian Thule end up confined to a Dreadnot.
Still, he serves the Emperor.
@dragonstormx accord to in-game information, Araghast is no simple pushover, his claim to have pillaged a thousand imperial worlds is no empty boast^^

I must wonder why every last Imperial Guardsman in the Imperium has a slight British accent.
My guess is that it’s due to GW being based in Britain.
1:33 “Don’t be like Ward!”
Then....we will burn it....to ash.

What happens if you never capture the communication array?
Do you still learn about the traitor?
Yes
@Rogovets I must wonder why every last Imperial Guardsman in the Imperium has a slight Scott McNeil accent.
Thanks for sharing. One of these days, they need to do a Dawn of War/Gaunt's Ghosts crossover, so Avitus can see how real Guardsmen fight...
4:17 idk Avitus you seem kinda sus
amogus

@dragonstormx there's a hint of Iron Warriors having faced Tyranids in Storm of Iron^^
Araghast.
Pillager of a Thousand Worlds.
Master of Hounds.
Lash of the Black Legion.
Truster of Eliphas with his escape route.
My favourite chaos rising mission
I think he would call them cowards for using stealth. But if he would recognize the tactic as "smart" then it would be interesting.
VindicareAssassin I know you're comment is old...but fuck you and every other "Ork" sniper.... Celestial Lions! Kek
I’ve heard that Araghast has the same VA as Mephisto from Ultimate Alliance.
@dragonstormx to Araghast, who may have lived for more than thousand years, such a claim is but hot air from the mouth of a loyalist. Perhaps he simply have never faced Tyranids before to realise their threat?

MERRICK!
@woodwyrm
It still does speak well of his intelligence to dismiss of claim of beating a tyranid hive fleet as an empty boast.
I just realized I think it’s the same voice actor as Mephisto from Ultimate Alliance 1
Even if they would Avitus is Canonical traitor so he can't see anything because he is dead.
i know your comment is old but from the wiki it and from what tarkus says in retribution that avitus was the traitor in CR
@woodwyrm or he may just be unimpressed because he hasn't faced them in combat before^^
@woodwyrm
Actually, I don't think there's anything in the fluff about battle between Tyranids and Chaos.
@woodwyrm Yeah.
@Extraintrovert
He's just calling him a youth.
do tarkus have the grenadier trait?
Ah the time before the Guard got an annoyingly overpowered army in Retribution.

its stops.
