That’s the beauty of the setting. The Imperium is a horrific place to live in an even more ungodly galaxy. Yet it’s the best that can be done for humanity and every Guardsman’s there to hold back the darkness as long as they can, even if they can only buy a second.

I could imagine this speech playing as the guardsman player strolls through the room to the nearest table and slowly sets up one guardsman at a time while everyone drops their rhinos, war trucks, and khorn berserkers and looks on i shock as models fill the table.
The Imperial Guard is a competent fighting force with reasonable effective tactics ,weapons and training but always has to fight overpowered foes which is why they suffers so much casualties and losses.

playing imperial gaurd in dark crusade and yes I will be playing this before every big fight to hype myself up, even against the space marines who aren't exactly "enemies of the imperium"
Even though I’m a servant of chaos at heart, this is a god damn good speech. Guardsmen, despite being corpse worshippers, are the bravest of the brave.
A corpse that your Dark Masters still fear, heretic. In all seriousness I’m impressed by 40k’s ability to make a nation as utterly terrible as the Imperium appealing to defend just by virtue of how they characterized the Guard.
@@Scatmanseth then again, if your other choices are either getting killed, raped, raped then killed, raped, killed, brought back to life, then raped again, or being eaten, the Imperium doesn't seem that bad

Hell, some places like Ultramar can even be considered Utopian. So no, Imperium all the fuckin way.
I just imagine a large force of xenos or heretics moving through a bombed out city or urban area and they suddenly start hearing this coming from the PA system.
As much as I like the Imperium of Man, I might like to point out here that this speech is given during a mission where the objective is to claim victory over the Imperium of Man.
And when the fires born of the first heresy began to die, Lo, there stood the sons of his Imperium. Ready to hold the line for ten thousand years. And hold, they will, for ten thousand more, if from his throne he does so, they shall comply
Enemies of the Imperium hear me! You have come here to die! The immortal Emperor is with us and we are invincible! His soldiers will strike you down! His war machines will crush you under their treads! His mighty guns will bring the very sky crashing down upon you! So make yourselves ready - you cannot win!

How to eliminate the commissar on max level difficulty: throw everything you got at him. Hammerheads, kroot, destroyers, Dreadnoughts, fire prisms, defilers, berzerkers, even servitors
It's a good quote.....until you realise it's said when you have already been pushed back and surrounded, your back is against the wall, no reinforcements are coming and you're making your last stand, with death being the most likely outcome
I feel like speaking to chaos like that even as a threat is inviting conversation for them to respond, which is inviting chaos, call the inquisitors, they might all be innocent, but we need to find their guilt.
