Was just about to search your channel to put something chill on before bed. And bam, I see you upload this bad boy 10 seconds ago. Thank you kindly good sir.
This was a fun video. GSC isn't usually a faction I get excited about, but when I was writing gaming lore for FFG 40k RPG, I created a terrible menace of one, to stalk the Koronus Expanse; the Cult of the Scattered Seedlings. They basically started when a charist captain's ship encountered a Space Hulk that had popped into the deep Expanse. Aboard this wreck were several Chameleonic Genestealers, and one of them got aboard the ship, once it's crew decided to run away. It started to turn the crew, and they eventually developed into a cult, but unlike most, it specifically didn't go and find a world to taint, instead electing to maintain its focus on the ship, and then slowly infiltrate another Cham GS into a population, and sail away. Basically, the cult seems to believe that the myriad warp storms that surround the Koronus Expanse will block its beacon call, so it is seeding threats indirectly throughout the region, hoping to create a number of beacons to combine, and call the Hive Mind. The way they operate, though, even if one of their groups, or infiltrators, is discovered, they are several steps separated from the ship, meaning that it is highly unlikely that anything will be linked back to them, and without the dedicated Imperial bureaucracy, they can avoid a lot of attention.
I really like this! More reason as to why I love the 40k Community and have been so captivated by it for 10 years now. So much free thinking creativity!
Thank you. Your story sounds interesting, I'd love to hear more about it. I really enjoy all GSC content, something about their scale within the whole setting is really compelling to me.
An Inquisitor telling his colleagues that there´s all fine and no more investigations should be performed? That should have caused an alert immideately...probably in the form of forhead smashing a red button.
There were a few connections to be made with irl themes and stories within these three tales! Although, I'll eventually do a sequel to this video and go over the Genestealer cult which does in fact exist upon Terra!
Thank you! Those two are certainly on my list, along with the other Necron characters. In fact, I wasn't sure of what the next Necron vid would be, so I'll do some reading on them and try to put something together soon!
Here’s a scary thought: tyrannid orks, or more specifically, tyrannid bioforms that have learned to make conscious use of the greenskin’s reality-warping psychic abilities. If the entire gestalt Hive Mind focuses on a single idea, and the greenskin’s power of belief is utilized, the hive fleets would be truly unstoppable. Perhaps they will focus on being immune to laser fire, thereby making the Militarum entirely useless, or worse, RESTORED by lasers. Perhaps they will focus on all Astartes turning against humanity, robbing the Imperium of its greatest weapon, and it will be a corruptive influence that not even the Grey Knights can resist for it is not born of Chaos. Worse still, what if they focus on the thought that all creature of the galaxy mutated into mindless piles of biomass? No resistance, just food waiting to be devoured.
I wonder if the Genestealers and Nurgle will ever meet to talk and decide to just go halfsies on the galaxy "You guys eat this half, we will eat that half."
But Nurgle doesn't really devour--he brings as much cancerous growth as he does decay. Between Nurgle and the Tyranids, the long term advantage is overwhelmingly in Nurgle's favor. The Tyranids can't *afford* to ignore Nurgle.
No way.. Nurgle loves life.. and he loves you.. becuase you are mortal. Its all about life and decay. The tyranits only devour life and let nothing back to start again. Absolut enemys
Brilliant video - learned some new 40k stuff i didn't know before - no idea that death watch and the mechanius had this history with different genestealer cults. Loving the narrator and actually prefer it over the previous incarnation - well tuned amd truely 'assended' now 😊
Yes, yes! Scholars Lore has insulted our glorious Imperium and blasphemed our god Emperor! He must be brought to the Inquisition for a thorough interrogation.
31:26 this is a bizarre choice, much like in the matrix considering we only produce enough energy to keep an LED running for a few days, or maybe enough to boil an egg?
Harvesting people for energy has to be the most inneficient way ever. Not to mention waiting for future uprisings (which could take years). I wager one primitive dam would generate more power than billions of corpses (like, killing those poor souls probably costs more energy than it gives back). At least in The Matrix they veiled it a bit better by keeping the humans alive and harvesting the heat (which still would not be enough energy, you know otherwise humans could generate enough energy with their own body heat to go without eating). I must say the suspension of disbelief is not kept, at least for me, with this one.
The naration of these videos are something I can only describe as "Esoteric Cybernatic Literature" Shakespear got nothing on Warhammer! and I can think of no other Warhammer channel to do it better than Scholar's Lore!
18:35 I love how this channel has a wide range of normative judgements in the literary tone. Maybe this range of differing opinions (from imperial to heretical) represents different authors, or it is merely the same author expertly crafting their persona to please the intended audience. Regardless of the matter, the timestamp at 18:35 showcases that no matter the normative judgement being made- the author is undoubtedly a human from the 41st millennium. Because to a human living in the grim dark future, heretic or not- human life is cheap. But splicing _xenos_ DNA is beyond perverse. It would be perverse to us as well but that wouldn’t be the phrase that initially shocks us. ANY person from this era upon hearing that a researcher used the human lab rats produced by a eugenics program to test the effects of splicing non-human genes would say “wait did that just say eugenics!? And human test subjects!?” rather than 18:35 “things took a _dark_ turn”, the 41st century denizen doesn’t even say “darker”, just “dark”.
4:10 when you said "but without further a due, it is time for us to learn" I was ready for you to follow with "about raid shadow legend" or something like that. That saying is overused on youtube.
10:32 Umm - Ultra Marines do not use black armor ... Death Watch are Black, or maybe the Grey Nights ... but that chapter doesn't normally deal with such mundane threats .
They are all deathwatch, hence the back. Deathwatch isn't a standing chapter, every member is on loan from a different chapter for a set amount of time. So this is an ultramarine chaplain that is performing a watch in the deathwatch.
We are all heretics 🇬🇧💯👌🥲🫶 Great videos I care please keep fighting the other channels that see a quick GPT 4.0 Script make money. Keep the humanity behind the computers. Ironic as I'm 1:49 writing this while you talk about the mechanics. Love ya 💯❤️😈🤖🫡

Bloated stagnant carcass of the once might Imperium? I'm reporting Scholar's Lore to the local inquisitor. 🧧
Heresy!!
I heard it, too! And he's best friends with a witch! Mention that, too!

LOL -Intergalactic Hemorrhoid... I wish I'd thought of that. Thank you for the Lesson.
I love the twisted helix cult, cool stuff !
24:31 ok now I'm fully convinced planet Earth is heavily infested with Genestealer cults 😰
That would make so many things make sence:)
Also scary that they can function in the direct light of the Astronomicon as I´d expect this to overwhelm their hive mind.
Wasn't there a story a few years ago where the Custodes rooted out a genestealer cult on Terra itself?
There were a few connections to be made with irl themes and stories within these three tales!
Although, I'll eventually do a sequel to this video and go over the Genestealer cult which does in fact exist upon Terra!
That’s a rabbit hole.
I would absolutly LOVE a video about Zandrekh & Obyron. They are my favorite duo... You doing an absolut fantastic job, keep it going!
Thank you! Those two are certainly on my list, along with the other Necron characters. In fact, I wasn't sure of what the next Necron vid would be, so I'll do some reading on them and try to put something together soon!
Man, the High Lords of Terra sure do have a disturbingly large number of denim pants...
Legends say that there is a galactic shortage of jeans, and none quite know of why!
They're coming out of the wall! They're coming out of the Emperor damned ceiling!
I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit
Sorry, I’ll keep the noise down.
Ot would be cool to see genestealer and chaos cults and humanity, fighting in the depths of a hive/factory world

The Swarmlord seems to like the wars though.
The gene-stealers seem to like indoctrinating.
The tyranids seem to like to hunt and eat.
They are here to save the meek and downtrodden.
More like here to savour the meek and downtrodden
They are here to 'serve' mankind.
@@giantbonsai8950 on a plate.
I find the greeting surprising. I always imagined the Imperium had degenerated into fanaticism, even destroying the comradery of academics.
Time to go to sleep eh? I shall, only so I may receive these gifts of lore
It is always important to ensure that we know as much about our enemy in order to defeat them permanently
Ohohoho... 45 minutes of warm and fuzzy lore about the Jeans Stealers :) We're eating good today, lads :)

That was so good! As a GSC player I would love for you to do the other major cults. Excellent work as always
Thank you! I'm going to cover them all eventually (hopefully), but this one was getting fairly long so I cut it back to just three for now
I don't know whether I should be impressed or worried about the accuracy of an AI generated Sigh.
I for one welcome our new ai overlords
Yeah, that really spooked me after I read that this was AI - noticing the proper pauses and inhales.
I wonder if the Genestealers and Nurgle will ever meet to talk and decide to just go halfsies on the galaxy "You guys eat this half, we will eat that half."
But Nurgle doesn't really devour--he brings as much cancerous growth as he does decay. Between Nurgle and the Tyranids, the long term advantage is overwhelmingly in Nurgle's favor. The Tyranids can't *afford* to ignore Nurgle.
Tyranids cause a shadow in the warp so I'm sure they won't get along with Nurgle
No way.. Nurgle loves life.. and he loves you.. becuase you are mortal. Its all about life and decay. The tyranits only devour life and let nothing back to start again. Absolut enemys
A good old treaty of Tordesillas for the entirety of the galaxy

Great video! Thanks! 👌
it's people like you dear scholar magos that make the warhammer community great
Haunting descriptions well told
Furiously purchases Day of Ascension on Audible. Seriously, chapter 8 and 9 in the background while I build my boxes of cultist, can't beat it.
Yes, yes! Scholars Lore has insulted our glorious Imperium and blasphemed our god Emperor! He must be brought to the Inquisition for a thorough interrogation.
This was just great, loved it thanks for sharing. Gives a great insight to the shady underworld of the GSC's.
Please cover the Terran Genestealer cult
I can see the cult of the bladed cog actually being interesting in they their beliefs might be able to help make the omninicia a warp god
Love your videos more GENESTEALER CULTS please!!!
Love this video! One little nitpick, a couple times you used the word ‘inoculate’ when I think the word ‘inculcate’ is what was actually meant.
31:26 this is a bizarre choice, much like in the matrix considering we only produce enough energy to keep an LED running for a few days, or maybe enough to boil an egg?
Awesome post.
Finally adding a GSC Playlist. Only Krieg has its own Playlist, but.....
Wait their emperor has 4 arms?!
But-uh… ours only has two :(
Dammit… I guess I’m a cultist now.
Arm count is like 99% of my lotalty.
Don't worry, ours has four. Speaking of which, they missed the biggest genestealer cult in the galaxy
This is yours king *hands you crown of denim*
The Twisted Helix is basically the Healing Church on their Yharnam world
HELLO KIND SIR! thank you for uploading this very nice video! Love to hear from you xoxo love HOXTONTRON!
Deathwatch are my new favs
Aww yiss, time for bed, dreaming about the horrors of 40k
Best channel ever
Don't forget about the Cult of Rusted Claw
Very cool
24:23 Doctor Fow-chee, do do do do, do do

3 arms give the best hugs :)

The narrator sounds like the narrator from "Myth: The Fallen Lords".
Me a 40k noob.
Looking at the genestealers. They look like mutants caused by the warp. I thought that or because of demons.
Disgusting beasties!!
I met one once! He (IT) stole my Levi's!!!!!
If I could be a part of one Astartes chapter, it would be the Grey Knights, but the Deathwatch would be 2nd
The naration of these videos are something I can only describe as "Esoteric Cybernatic Literature" Shakespear got nothing on Warhammer! and I can think of no other Warhammer channel to do it better than Scholar's Lore!

Doin some research before warpforge drop GSC
I do have to say, it is odd how your AI voice actor changes the types of mistakes it makes on the same words.
Yea its a bit weird but that's the downside from what I can tell of current consumer grade non Custome made ai.
Is it just me or does the AI narrator sound like John R. Nolan from Person of Interest?
Nice
Im confused. Was this episode about 40k or Monsanto?
Im sorry but what happened to the Attenborough series? :(
They got a cease and desist.
I got some Genes you can steal right here bud.
Oh, c-u-L-T-s, not N-T. Got it. And plasma rifles? When did the Deathwatch turn Tau?
