Salamanders... Space Marines that can actually laugh.
How refreshing...
Also space wolves.
My memory of the story is shoddy, but weren't there a few moments of humor between Luna Wolves in Horus Rising?
@@TheGreatThicc My favorite was the Mournival wrestling and giving each other nuggies until Horus interrupted with a tone of voice like a bemused dad trying to stop his sons from being morons in front of guests.
@@Ideo7Z Can you please expand on that statement? I've read the first HH novel and am halfway through the second and haven't ran into this.
@@deleonjrd When they were in the dropship bay getting ready to deploy to the planet Horus got stabbed on. Just before taking his oath of the moment he looks for Loken, Abbadon, Aximand and Torgaddon to witness it and to introduce that powerful lady aristocrat with the bodyguard who later betrays her. He sees them just as they had gotten into bro down wrestling match. I, mean freaking Abbadon clowning around with Loken et al like frat boys and dad Horus being embarrased by his top commanders behaving like juveniles was surreal.
When a Salamander tells you ‘nice weapon’, you know you’ve got something special.
(Edit): glad to see some folk agreeing with this simple comment.
haha aut because they are Blacksmiths in there own rights
I wanna see Dante’s “fine weapon” OwO
@@t-34mediumtank16 Yes Inquisitor, that one over there.
@@t-34mediumtank16 Please report to your local Commisar for immediate servitor conversion. Thank you for your time.
@@knightzix_01 all of them are trained to maintain and craft their own weapons but the forgefathers are the ones who can make truly beautiful instruments of war..
Tu’Shan should’ve gave Dante a big hug. He really needs one.
I would love that, It should've happened, clash with the blood angels edgy respect stuff that all space Marines have, that's bullshit their human and should act like it like the salamanders, but I understand that salamanders are like little brothers and respect their big bros
Also might mirror Sanguinius and Vulkan's brotherhood. Maybe. Don't get much wity both of them in one place.
I'm a big fan of the good terms the Blood Angels and the Salamanders have been on. Dante and one of the previous Vulkans fighting back to back in the second Armageddon War is one of my favorite bits of lore trivia.
When a Space Marine is carrying a wounded Guardsman to safety, you know it's a true son of Vulkan from the Salamanders Chapter.
Curiously enough that is a Dark Angel, not a Salamander. Look at the knee guard. It has a Dark Angel livery.
@@miguelortiz3836 curious,
You can see the wingtip on the pdron as well
Azmodai wanted to SPEAK to this one...
@ボイス the guy probably knew about or had met with a fallen angel, he's got a short and painful life ahead of him lol
Dante laughed at, "The save my indulgence for the forge" likely because the Blood Angels are taught to channel their fury and rage into artistic pursuits so he knows exactly what Tu'shan means.
Dante and Tu'shan bff's forever
Yes.
The emperor approves of this
@@willatronblue4835 "Dante and Tu'shan bff's forever" *Stomp stomp*
Dante doing the stomp would be hilarious
Chapter master interactions are always interesting...
Dante: "Welcome to Baal. The reason I've called---"
Seth: "Fuck you."
Dante: "......."
Seth: "......."
Seth: "Sorry. Force of habit. You were saying?"
😆😆😆😆
So accurate in Devastation of Baal in particular.
Dante: oh …. Well I had this speech planned but I guess I’ll just skip it …. Baal is gonna be attacked in force wanna help slay and kill a lot of xenos????
Gabriel Seth: I loved every word that came out of your mouth….. where do we get ripping and tearing???
Allways when reading about Salamanders i have to think about: "VULKAN LIVES! *stomp stomp*" Great vid man!
DofD what are we supposed to do tu’shan? Vulkan is dead, again!
@@connormclernon26 I want to boop the snoot!
@@DofDPlays Stop wanting.
@Dofd We still live!
@@khainegate5519 EVERY-ONE IMPORTANT LIVES.
The Salamanders are the most under-rated and under-represented chapters. They need way more love from GW.
I feel the same about the White scars and the Khan tbh
They both need better agents. Though it sounds like the Salamanders may have acquired the Blood Angels rep.
@@chrisbennett6236 what do you mean?
Everyone says that about whatever chapter it is they so happen to like at that particular time.
@@kevlarburrito6693 I don't use the Salamanders in any way, shape or form. I just think the Salamanders and White Scars don't get the attention they deserve. I'm an Ultramarines player and have been for 18 years.
Between the two angelic figures behind Dante and his advice to Tu'Shan, I'm strongly reminded of the quote from Fear to Tread, "It is not the descent toward the shadow nor the rise toward the light that makes us superior. It is the endless struggle between the two that greatness of character lies."
I see Tu'shan and all I can think of is Vulkan yelling "FRIENDS!"
Look at this toad!
I want to boop the snoot
Is it bad that I read that in Vulcans TTS voice and that that is the only voice I can imagine after TTS? This is not how Vulcan shout sound! Needs more Base... But it fits so awesome!
This creature does my bidding now
@@kedarraman6690 whyyyyy
We need a Tu'Shan miniature.
We need more lore also
Y E S
For the love of the Emperor yes
This is one rare instance where I beg to differ. What we need is a profile/entry, but there's something special about Slamanders when it comes to miniatures. They are master craftsmen, and it shows on their wargear. Making an official miniature of such a character settles its appearance in stone, and there will always be Salamander players for which that particular sculpt won't reflect their idea and mental representation of the craft mastery. On the other hand, having just a profile and having people kitbash their own miniature lets them express their own personal view of what Salamander wargear should look like. It's also quite fitting on a meta level that miniatures of master craftsmen be represented by the litteral (hobby) craft mastery of their owner/player.
Nuko couldn’t put it better, shame that he doesn’t have a profile to my knowledge tho ;-;
Tu-Shan reaching for Dante’s council shows how incredibly adaptable the minds of the Salamanders are , to be at a high place where others look at you to know what’s next, and not let pride or doctrine dogma cloud your mind is incredible wise. I love how Dante knows this is a rare quality for any proud Marine to have and above all a chapter master , man I can tell you that you wouldn’t find a Ultramarines or sons of Dorn knocking at Dante’s door for council ., and I know Dante is humbled by this visit. I wonder tho, do you think Dante’s shared their flaw with Tu-Shan? .Thanks for another great video Wolf!, I can’t wait for you to cover the new Conrad Curze Primarchs book
It's hard to say if he'd share, it is a big secret that even Sanguinius shared but if Dante shared with anyone it would be his best friend Tu'shan.
I know Sanguinius told Horus but I'm pretty sure Vulkan knew as well. Hell Guilliman knows and he'd probably be one of the last of his brothers Sanguinius would tell.
@@chrisbennett6236 Admittedly, is I remember correctly, Sanguinius told Horus only after Horus witnessed him killing one of his sons.
@@radoslavhresko8736 Yep Horus punk ass literally snuck in as sang was having to put one of his sons down from the red thirst
No he didn't. Explaining the mural would have given the secret away. Dante didn't. Although he did allow that hint to be dropped, which is unusual.
Um.
It literally says during the 2nd War for Armageddon Calgar and Tu’Shan immediately asked Dante to take supreme command.
"... the one, the only, the Old Man in Gold, in the Red Corner, Daaaante!"
😂
The two fought back to back against the orks durring the second war for Armageddon, after the campaign had closed Dante personally honored Tushan (who had only been a chapter master for a few years) for his courage and commitment to the people of Armageddon. Truly a statement of one's being given the honor of Dante's praise.
Salamanders are so under appreciated it's insane. Models need to happen and Vulkan must return. Imagine how relievedd Guilliman would be to see his most human brother return and offer his aid.
It looks like three of the greatest tacticians and warriors among the Primarchs are returning and they will be a huge help but I think Guilliman needs either Vulkan or Sanguinius right now. Or better yet both.
It would be an amazing read if Vulkan returned with a resurrected Sanguinius with him.
Even me a son of the Lion absolutely love Dante seriously one of the best current lore characters
Well after the war on Armaggedon even the proudful Azrael chapter master of the Dark Angels kinda understood that when Dante is around he is in charge, not because of authority, but because of experience.
Im a simple man, I see Tu'shan and dante, so I click.
I love Blood Angel and Salamander collaboration stories. The sons of the two most compassionate Primarchs.
The image of the Salamander carrying the wounded Iggie off the field says it all.
They are some of the greatest chapters and most compassionate. The salamanders are great on Hellsreach, but the space marine carrying the guardsman is a Dark Angel, not a Salamander. Look at the livery on the knee guard.
Look at the marine behind they're dark angels
@@randomlygeneratedname Those might be the crests of the Salamander emblem rather than wings.
@@miguelortiz3836 Can't be then because that is a 2 to symbolize the 2nd Company, the 2nd Company of Dark Angels is the Ravenwing which wear black and have their own crest.
@@Watcher-in-the-Dark yes but the number 2 on the knee is the squad number, not company. There company markings are the checker colours on the knee (red and white)
Imperiums 2 biggest bros having a much needed bro moment
"Brother." Dante calls Tu'Shan "Brother." That's normally something only said between members of the same chapter, or at most same legion I have to ask, though, why does Dante use that term?
Maybe it's for motivational purpose. Dante must know more about Marine psychology and leadership than even the oldest Chaplains. He might be calling Tu'Shan his brother because he wants to convey that he trusts him, to subtly tell him that he's not alone and give him encouragement to carry on.
On the other hand, maybe it's personal. Being Dante, or any chapter master, really, is a lot like being a Primarch. He's got no peers, no friends, he lives every second on a giant pedestal. Maybe he likes Tu'Shan because he knows that, if anyone can understand his struggles and his doubts, it's his glowing-eyed counterpart.
It's actually more common than you think. Marines from different legions and chapters reference each other as "brother" and sometimes "cousin", mainly due to being the same type of human or just trust. In the Horus Hersey books, Dark Imperium, etc.
@@Amatsaru29 The cousin bit I'm familiar with, but that different lineages would call each other bro is news to me. Nonetheless, it's still true that Dante isn't the same type of human as almost anyone else. Even to other Astartes he's larger than life, sitting somewhere between an Astartes and a Primarch. That level of familiarity from him is significant, I think.
It's not really all that uncommon. Horus Heresy series for one is full of marines that call some marines from other legions brothers that they have fought with or something like that. Fighting whatever horrors Warhammer universe can throw at you back to back is a pretty good connecting factor.
Dante calls Tu'shan brother for few reasons.
First Dante and Tu'shan have been friends for a long time.
Second their chapters (Salamander and Blood Angel chapters) have been close since the great crusade, likely due to Vulkan and Sanguinius being so close.
Third both chapters showed unwavering respect to one another in this story: the Salamanders kneeling and the Blood Angels bowing. Have you ever even heard of Space Marines doing doing such a thing for another Primarchs sons? Likely not cause it doesn't happen. That level of respect takes time to develop, in this case since the days both Primarchs still led their legions.
Fourth Space Marines in the Death Watch, even though from virtually every chapter, call each other brother all the time as they have fought together side by side many times and have earned each other's respect. Now I admit that it is alot more common between Blood Angels and Salamanders outside the Death Watch but it's not completely unheard of.
Nicely said and I agree .
I want a bro down between Tu'shan, Dante, and Logan just have them somehow meet and fight on the same battlefield that could be cool (if not a little fan-fictiony)
And then have a feast right after!
They nailed the style of both chapters duting the meeting, ive always felt they are friends as chapters
Their Primarchs were great friends so it stands to reason that their sons would have a great deal of respect for one another.
Plus it helps that Dante and Tu'shan have been friends for a long time.
Salamanders need more special Characters.

He’Stan is best Forgefather!
we stan He'stan
When I saw the names 'Tu'shan' and 'Dante' together on the thumbnail. I clicked instantly.
Edit: Holy hell! Where did all these likes come from?!
InquisitiveI I almost thought it was click bait by how amazing such a meeting would be...
I’m not dissapointed
I picked this post since it is the most liked (apologies to Inquisitivel), but W.L.R. should now allow us to give him Patreon or Subverse money. This is top quality content, and dude deserves some financial support for the excellent content he gives us
Holy hell! Worthless internet likes!
people like to show their agreement
Ah, Dante... when you absolutely sure that he can’t be more awesome, BL gives us something like that.
I guess now I have to buy this short story just to show GW that this kind of stuff I would love to see in my 40k.
It's impossible to hate Tu'shan, he's that bro who has your back no matter the situation. Drunk at 3 am and can't drive home, give him a ring and he'd pick you up.
I'm in tears, all I picture is Grandpa Vulcan beaming from his chair and cigar and glasses in hand, "Bro Trip!"
am i the only one who wants a usable model for chaptermaster tu'shan o god emperor would i add that to my army
Yours is truly a burning desire
STOMP STOMP !!!!
Hear! Hear! Though if I am to be honest I hope they don’t turn this great drake into a primaris
I'd also like a non-resin Vulkan He'stan model.
The model would be taller than Abbadon.
I LOVE the Salamanders and Blood Angels Chapter. Both are epic Chapters with interesting lore.
Both first founding chapters of fierceness and compassion.
Which is why they brothers despite having different Primarchs
Leave it to the Salamanders to deliver the best roasts.
most underrated comment of the whole section
The salamanders near infinite capacity to see parallel in other death worlders really shines through.
Everyone: how noble and angelic Dante is.
Dante: I want to die, pls let me die already, is being soo long. Pls Sangui take me to your side.
Sangui: lol no.
Vergil: seems you need some motivation brother.
Dante: oh come on Vergil, this is not our franchise and that's clearly not me!
Yes, the Salamanders! Vulcan's boys are the best!
I had been a son of the lion since the early 90s but the more lore I dig into and the more stories like this I hear I'm moved more towards the sons of Vulkan.
Well duh.
D.A. are just emo gothic teens
Sal. are homedepot dads
Why not Both?
Ahhhhh I get so jacked when I see another WLR video! Love it man, thanks.
I wonder if Tu'shan thinks that Dante was trying to tell him he has a drink problem or something 😂 "turning to the bottle is fine brother, this job is hard!"
I'm soooo glad you made this! Tu'shan is my favorite character in 40k. Keep up the good work dude, you're awesome!
Dante sees quallity's in Tu'Shan that he values and notes he himself has and had now and in earlier years. Their respect for each other is not out of fondness but a common equality and surety of purpose. Above all Tu'Shan and the Salamanders are like the Blood Angels. Like Dante he has defended his homeworld from destruction. Like Dante he values every common man child and woman in the Imperium. This is the foster father in Dante to his stepson Tu'Shan. They may well have been brothers. What Tu'Shan lacks in experience. Dante will teach. What Dante will not be able to give in years, Tu'Shan will bear. It's a baton pass. A slow grooming of a affectionate, respected old leader to the new generation.
"Two greats tastes that" KICK EVERY ASS THERE IS "taste great together"
Read the Salamanders Omnibus. Lots of references in this story.
Vulkan Lives!
messihr stomp stomp!
This picks up right after the Salamanders Omnibus. I’m reading it right now and it’s really good!
I am a simple man. I see Dante I click. I see anything that has anything to do with Salamanders, I click, I like, I comment, I stomp stomp.
Received a notification from yt about wolflord at 2 AM. Totally worth waking up to.

Didn't want to do the famous "Salamander Voice" eh?
My Fire Bois.
Dante: Come Tu'shan, lets put chapter ethics aside for the moment, what do you know of the Legion of the Damned?..."
Tu'Shan: *keeping his eyes fixed on Dante's, turns his head slightly and raises an eyebrow.*
I’m sorry, I’m still learning… Legion of the Damned? Another name for the traitor legions?

I absolutely love this. I never knew that these two chapters were close like this. Please keep it up!
I want to see a meeting between Dante, Logan Grimnar, and Marneus Calgar, with maybe some of the others like Tushan, Kayvon Shrike, and Pedro Kantor there as well. Some epic moment of dedication & purpose, perhaps even a meeting of the heirs of the Primarchs vowing to continue the Great Crusade.
I want to see a team up between Uriel Ventris and Ragnar Blackmane, and see how the real t
You are a wonderful narrator sir. Keep up the good work, For the Emperor!
Dude you're one of the best narrators I've ever heard! I love these lore videos, but none make me as emotional as yours do. The music in the background definitely helps get the feels get going.
Agreed, nicely put.
Thank you for this. I love the friendships that form from between these chapters
We need a get together of Dante , Tu'shan, Grimnar or Ulrik. Crack open a case of Fenrisian ale and go on a hunt. I can just imagine the face of the Inquisitor who reads that report lol
In this case they will hunt a daemon prince... or two just for the lols
@@EderReis And all the while riding Carnifex's as war mounts. Why you ask? Cause they can.
I just finished painting my Tu'stan. Decent!
It was really enjoyable listening to the story, and i liked it quite a bit, especially the part dante seemed like he wanted to tell tushan of the red thirst and show that even the Blood angel, even though they look noble, have a dark secret that they themselves see as a plague on their nobility.
I play salamanders and this is rad
Awesome content as always. Thinking about shelling out for the seige of terra book one.. Ouch about the £29, but if the Emperor wills it so.. So be it.
I think its funny that there's a DA photo for a salamanders and blood angels vid in the very beginning
After listening to this and the meeting between guilliman and mortarion, I'm subscribing to this channel
Clicked for Dante, ended up staying for Tu'Shan
Talking about Salamanders and BA.
Opens with pic of Dark Angle who eventually came back and killed the guardsmen he saved for keeping his word and not betraying Cypher.

🤔
Steller video my man. Thank you and keep up the awesome videos.
"May the Emperor protect."
I highly do recommend the modern Salamanders books, I've been reading them and it's been a great time reading them
WLR I work nights and your analysis of the black library books and insight into the human side of our Beloved imperium makes the night pass much faster . Well done mate you have found your calling . If you go down the Patron route you will have my support.
Thanks mate that’s nice to hear!
Another fantastic upload, my Lord Rho. May the Allfather’s blessings ever be upon you
Best 40K characters for the best chapters. Love this
The way you speak, it really helps drive home the humanity of Tu'shan and Dante as they speak to one another.
Tu'shan' lives!!! Dum, dum dum.
Dante talking with Tu'Shan about his "complacency" for some reason made me remember pre-heresy Horus talking with Loken after the mission where Jubal was possessed and Garviel was saying he had failed the mission
Ok. You always recommend we read/buy the source material but i'v always just enjoyed listening to you/other WH40k TH-camrs. I'll be honest, i'v even pirated some books but this will be my first ever purchase. I love the Salamanders and i love when chapters interact outside their respective Brothers. Keep up the good work Wolf Lord Rho.
How can something be so badass and heartwarming at the same time?
Great vid again mate. Like the fact that you're including these great short stories.
Astartes being friendly with each other is so refreshing.
Jes!!!!!! More Vids!!! I dropped everything I was doing just to watch this, I can purge xenos and traitor sum after the vid ;-)
As awesome as a lot of the chapters are, Salamanders are best IMO.
It's quite funny as myself and one of my good friends I play 40K with is a Salamander player and I play Blood Angels. If life ever goes back to normal we are going to have to do the Tu'Shan/Dante combo in a 2v2 when we can meet in person again.
Also, Dante meets Azreal needs to happen.
Hey man... In the first picture, those green space marines are Dark Angels not Salamanders. Also the picture is mirrored. You can tell by iconography on the knee pad that the front marine is of 5th company second squad. On the shoulder you can see the angel wings. You can tell that the image was mirrored due to iconography being inverted. Both company and chapter markings go on the left side.
Great Work as always Battle Brother 😎 , didn't have time to Comment, Know I am Happy 😎, Continue your Good Work , Ave Imperator 😎!!!!.
Tu'shan & Dante is like the embodiment of Vulkan & Sanguinis personality... Imagine if Gulliman saw Tu'shan & Dante talking... He probably gonna cry 😢 😢 for its make him miss of his brothers..
It will probably not happen but think how cool it would be if all the founding chapters, Chapter masters got together like most of the Primarchs once did. (For the Khan and the Emperor )
I would love to read that!
The Drakes and Angels are great friends. If this story doesn't showcase the limitless respect and trust they have for one another, I don't know what will.
I see the same nobility and you and your salamanders as you see in me that's coming from Dante that is an extreme compliment
Dante - the most respected chapter master, before the return of primarches I feel that every other chapter master would defer to him in a battlefield situation, after all you have to be a great tactician to survive as long as Dante has. He also wouldn’t try to order them as he would know that wouldn’t work, it would be a strong suggestion and it would incorporate the other chapters preferred style of fighting. When the sad day comes that Dante falls in battle, there will be a honour guard made up of 100s of marines from various other chapters, and considering the doctrine of “no personal glory, only duty” that is saying something. For there will be no other like Dante.
I'll never understand why there's not a Tu'shan miniature Co sidering he's such an established character and a chapter master no less
Because he doesn't wear blue armour....
Dante has been the Bloodangles Chaptermaster for like a thousand years now, right?
And the Great Crusade was only like 200 Years, right? Doesnt that make Dante the More experience commander between him and Guiliman?
Great Crusade occurred roughly 10,000 years prior to the present (during 30th millennium). Dante is nearly 1,500 years old and even he wasn't in the Horus Heresy. In fact only Bjorn the Fellhanded of the Space Wolves was alive during the Heresy and he is bound to a dreadnaught.
@@chrisbennett6236 Yes, thats true.
Your point?
Yes but guilliman is a primarch
Roboute Guilliman lives *stomp* *stomp*
Are you secretly Matt Ward?
@@jimvenanzio6561 no matt ward has a TH-cam account that he uses and shows up with on random 40k youtubers.
Matt did love his Ultramarines. Probably more than Guilliman does lol
There’s more humour and banter between this group of salamanders then half the space marine chapters
Leave it to the salamanders to find the time to get a bad breath joke in. Honestly if any chapter deserves my blessing they would be it.
I think that the biggest sign of respect is that Dante removed his helm. It is said that he never takes it off except inside the Fortress Monastery on Baal
Calgar was also on Armageddon with Dante and Tu'Shan. It is a Sanguinius and Vulkan thing to just Hug people Dorn and Jaghatai are not huggers but got hugged anyway. A solid wrist grasp is tame for these two chapters meeting.
I can only imagine a conversation between blood ravens chapter master Gabriel Angelos with Dante. That’d be a conversation I’d pay money to see.
I am not familiar with the blood ravens lore, could you explained what would Make interesting that meeting?
@@juanwong2973 Certainly. What I think would make it interesting is Angelos’s and Dante’s perspectives on becoming Chapter Masters. Both were Brother Captains that were promoted to Chapter Master in the wake of their predecessors’ deaths and near extinction of their chapters. For the Angels it was a surprise assault from the Black Legion, for the Ravens it was an internal Chapter Civil War with half their brothers falling to Chaos. It would be a moment of shared experiences between the two.
Man i love this format.
Great narrating and great commentary.
I like this I am more than tired of "There is only war" so just a nice chat is well welcome
This shows us that space marines, no matter how augmented and super trans human they are, they're still human. They still have their moments of humanity. I love the Salamanders for that.
“FRIENDS!!!!!’”
Definitely MORE Salamanders and Blood Angels stories
Slammander give hugs. That is more true than you realize! Also this why we love Vulkan and all his scary looking but friendly sons. And their humility in this makes them even more love about. More Salamanders books need to be read.
Always pumped when I see two of my favorite Legions broing out! Hail to the Regent of Imperial Nihlus!
You've said the Devastation of Baal is your favorite book, I fully agree. Know no Fear is defintely my favorite HH book, before I read the D of Baal one, that was my favorite book. Now this means quite a lot coming from an Eldar fanboy. Have you read any of the Aeldari books? I know you're not much into eldar, but I'd definetely would advise you to read Valedor, it's by far the best "eldar" book the Black Library has. I've read it several times, there's some parallels with the Baal book, but it's obviously very different. I'm mostly a xenos guy, I got most xenos armies too and Tyranid lore is always really interesting, putting them against my favorite faction (eldar) would automatically end in an excellent book. Now, as for the video, it's quite interesting seeing what's happening in the current timeline, I'm especially interesting in dante now, though i'll admit I'm not a huge fan of BL's shortstories, I much prefer the full novels, codices and campaign books got plenty of shortstories to read. The newer rulebooks have so much lore in them, it's a blessing to people like us who love the lore.
Gotta say man, your story telling style of lore channel is quite awesome. Love it. Keep it up. Instant subscription.
