At least most of the Mani Domini were volunteers;( most were the most fanatical, but that's a subject for another time)most of these poor souls get involuntary volunteered.
these things always leave me torn....I love the grim dark but my inner cynic wont stop screaming how ridiculous it would be to try and field them in actual combat.
it's TRUE I tell myself to shut up but I cant.... 4 armed demons an elves that cant spell elf fine. An army spending resources on all those robotic components to be a troop that can be smashed in the face by kids throwing stones..... the plot armour has grown to thick I cant carry it anymore.
Seems like it would be useful to have non suicidal or utterly demented walkers... But hey... While I'm not really sure what they're getting at with the name arco-flagellants there's no arches or bows in sight... Anyway they strike me as Eversors on the cheap...
Because why NOT feed slaanesh with pain while we are at it. Seriously, as important as the church is to holdind the imperium together its like they just arent trying to win in some places. Just kill them and let big E sort it out, its part of his job after all so just let the guy do it.
By the decree of Lord Cardinal Giorgias Delvaux, Sister Canoness-Preceptor Alexis de Chatelaine, commander of the Sororitas mission/convent of Hjec Aleja on the world, Ras Shakeh, was sentenced to fight as a Pentient Engine, when she failed to protect Ras Shakeh from the Plague Marines invasion. She was able to break the Engine reeducation program. In his "different life" Arco-flagellant Rasselas X-42 was known as Lord Cardinal Lukasz Król[Król was a despot, he f*cked up so badly he was converted to Arco-flagellant. The whole procedure was performed without anesthesia as a part of Król repentance]
This has got to be the most ineffective weapon of all time, even for Warhammer lol. That's a lot of wasted metal for something that could get taken out by pretty much anything and from a distance.
Just started the video 8th to view and 5th to like which is cool. And I'll definitely check out that other channel as I love 40k lore so the more the better I say. I'll edit this comment at the end of the video if there is a vote but for now I'll say thanks for the upload gdn.
Chrono gladiators have it worse than arco flagellants in my opinion. Chrono gladiators differ from their arco flagellant cousins in one important regard: a chrono gladiator literally lives on borrowed time. The process of creating a new gladiator is similar to that of the arco flagellant but with a few important additions: The mind of the gladiator is not destroyed by combat stims. As matter of fact veteran chrono gladiators have been known to utilize advanced tactics and strategies to track down and destroy their targets. The addition of a timed kill switch from which the chrono gladiators derive their name. The design and function of the kill switch system is as varied as the tech adepts involved in their creation but in essence they function on the same principle:when the gladiator is activated for the first time the countdown to its termination begins and the only way for the gladiator to add time to their death clock is to track down the targets their masters instructs them to kill. Knowing that your central nervous system will be fired or a lethal dose of nerve toxins will be injected into your blood stream if you fail to murder your assigned target within a certain time frame is way worse than being a mindless berserker who just fights and fights until they are unable to fight anymore.
would the Sororitas allow me to salvage any valuable components from them when they fall in battle? its mostly there "biological" CPUs that i want. there "biological" CPUs is the most valuable components i need to make Cybernectica Cortex for my battle automatas and no my creations are Silica Animus and are not guided by self-awareness and reason but by a web of primal bellicose instinct and programmed framework of encoded behavior, comprising of simple and exacting interactions and commands.

Man... this is so messed up, death would be a mercy, but then it wouldn't be punishment.
"For those extra, extra naughty Battle Sisters..."
You have my attention.
Thank you GrimDark Narrator - you are awesome! :)
Loved the collab. Awesome stuff!
Happy to help!
And here I thought the Word of Blake's fanatical Mani Domini where totally messed up people.
At least most of the Mani Domini were volunteers;( most were the most fanatical, but that's a subject for another time)most of these poor souls get involuntary volunteered.
these things always leave me torn....I love the grim dark but my inner cynic wont stop screaming how ridiculous it would be to try and field them in actual combat.
That can be said about half of all units in 40k :D
it's TRUE I tell myself to shut up but I cant.... 4 armed demons an elves that cant spell elf fine. An army spending resources on all those robotic components to be a troop that can be smashed in the face by kids throwing stones..... the plot armour has grown to thick I cant carry it anymore.
I would imagine the engine is a little more reusable than the penent
Glad you covered this thing today. They are pretty creepy.
You're welcome.
Giving the Emperor so many tortured and twisted souls in the end the Emperor will become a greatly disturbed god.
Unless he is one already.
Seems like it would be useful to have non suicidal or utterly demented walkers... But hey...
While I'm not really sure what they're getting at with the name arco-flagellants there's no arches or bows in sight... Anyway they strike me as Eversors on the cheap...
Kinda what I thought. But hey, why take time and training for 1 Eversor when you can have a dozen of these at the same price :D

What a waste of valuable machinery having such a squishy "Achilles heel". Just strap a bomb on the penitent and show him/her in the right direction.
All of these should have a sign like a Claymore mine: 'front towards the enemy '. Point them at the enemy and get the hell out of the way.
With all the contraptions on it, it might be hard to tell which is the front :D

That arco flagellant does sound familiar.
came here from SleepySack :) Agreed, definitely worth checking him out. Also, great channel you have here too. Subbed!
Thank you!
So you only need to aim for the pilot's head to to take this Machine down?
If they're the basic kind, pretty much. The other two are a bit more armoured.
NUNS WITH MECH WALKERS?
the horror
the horror
Great collaboration with SleepySack I've come across from his channel another great warhammer lore40k youtuber check him out, subbed
Glad it helped.

A smart person would use them on melee focused enemies. Can't get shot that way 😎
I think that might be partially intentional though.
Holy cats that is bazaar.but great video 👍
Thank you.
Hello TH-cam algorithm. I can think of zero PG jokes for this one.
Liked, saved to playlist, commented. :)

Thanks for watching.
Manling !!!!They seek a mighty DOOOOM!!!!! I'm a sinner but have no drivers license so am I excluded?
Unlike you, brave slayer, they wackos don't even care about honor. They're usually to drugged up to care about anything.

Fun thing about 40k. Whenever you think you've seen the peak of grimdarkness and ridiculousness, there's always something worse around the corner.
👍
Algorithm +1
