    Yes I like ultramarines, yes I am cringe. Also there's a part in the video that kinda sounds like I said "Half the legion turned traitor", I actually said "Half the legions turned traitor" but I can see how it can be misheard. Hope everyone enjoys the vid!

    - they love the Roman Empire

    I genuinely think that how captain Titus was depicted in Space Marine (as true Ultra-Marine, not a nerd-marine) and positively recived by the fanbase, paved a way for Ultra-marine characters and the chapter as a whole to develope into a more interesting subfaction.

      @TheExecutorr 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      honestly, this may be a hot take, but I think Leandros gets more shit on than he deserves. After all, it is (or at least was until recently) a big problem within the Ultramarines that way too many of them had a stick up their behind when it came to sticking to the codex. Honestly it's a miracle Leandros was the only one in the game to question any deviation from the codex. And sure, him ratting out Titus to the Inquisition was a dickmove, however after all we know about chaos and warp fuckery, he had every reason to be concerned after Titus was carrying the Warp buttplug for such a long time and was able to touch it no problem. I'd argue half of the Ultramarines at the time would have done the same. And any Black Templar around would have shot Titus on the spot. Leandros telling the Inquisition and them just taking Titus away for investigation was the most lenient way to handle the situation honestly. Also he got to kick ass in the Deathwatch for a century or two, so I'd say it's a win for him.

  • @josephrossow8901
    @josephrossow8901 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +340

    I had a friend once describe why the Ultramarines were the 'poster-child' the 'most-successful' chapter. He put it like this:
    Each Space Marine chapter is 'the best' at something. One chapter has the 'fastest' guys. Another has the 'strongest melee'. Another is the 'stealtiest'. Now, the Ultramarines are 'good' at all of that, but where they excel is... 'logistics'. Territory the Ultramarines will stay with the Imperium longer, and they are the best supplied, best supported Chapter. They don't do any ONE thing better than the other chapters except take care of their stuff. And in a war spanning 10,000 years, that is really the deciding factor.

      In all honesty, they'd only need Caedo for the threat at hand. He probably won't show up in Space Marine 2 because he's just complete overkill for a nid invasion. Titus and Caedo are both incredibly powerful on their own, but both? That's overkill even by the Inquisition's standards.

    *Ekhem* *ACHKUALLY KRAKA* the chapter system as a sub-division of the legions was established by the Principa Bellicosa, a sort of proto-codex astartes but meant to standardize the organization of the legions, not chapters. It was created early on in the Great Crusade, though most legions used it as toiled paper, some kept it. Guilliman, notably, made almost no changes to the structure it introduced.

    i like the way the space marine games show the flaw of the ultra marines in a more realistic manner than being too good at their job. in the first game, stink-andros snitches on you because he's so gung ho for the codex, and then in the second game it shows with the problems titus and gadriel have, gadriel feels snubbed and turns that into suspicions that makes the team work less effectively.

    I'm a relatively new fan of Warhammer 40k, I've been aware of it for decades, and even when I could only name a few things from the setting like "Imperium" and "God Emperor", the other term I was familiar with was "Ultramar", even though I didn't know what it even meant. When I discovered the Primaris Marines, I got more interested in Warhammer because finally the super soldiers had slightly more normal proportions with their armour. The fact that Primarchs were returning to the setting was also interesting to me. This year I read my first Warhammer novels, I started with Lion, Son of the Forest, and then read the Dark Imperium trilogy. My favourite chapters also happened to be the Dark Angels and Ultramarines due to their themes and colour schemes, so the fact that they both have their Primarchs back is awesome!
    I haven't started collecting the miniatures yet, because I discovered the Joytoy line of action figures so am collecting those first. As a kid I always loved the models, but lamented that I had to construct and paintthem myself and without some modifications, they mostly wouldn't be pose able or have interchangeable weapons. The Joytoy figures are EXACTLY what I've always wanted from Warhammer! :D

    I am Space Wolves fan (as you can probably guess by my pfp), but even I acknowledge that Ultramarines are as essential to the Imperium as water and food are to survival. They're elitist and arrogant at times to be sure, but when has any other Space Marine Chapter NOT been that way. This video practically highlighted most of the reasons why the Ultramarines are my third favorite founding chapter (just under Imperial Fists)

    Ah, a man of culture, seeing the Ultramarines as the chads that they are, but also understanding their flaws. Thanks to better writers not glazing them the chapter has become the shining beacon of what it means to be an Astartes without being "holier than thou" about it, most of the time. I can't wait to see how they are portrayed in SM2, I hope we meet Papa Smurf and maybe even Girlyman himself at some point, because that just feels right. Titus needs to be told he's the best an Ultramarine can be!

    My favored Legion/Chapter is the Imperial Fists, as I relate to their Primarch, and like the vibe of being codex compliant out of spite for the fact it exists. Also it's a good note that the precedent of the Indomitus crusade has non-verbally notified the Fists that their Primarch's ideals were, in fact, viable and needed.
    I'm glad that the Ultramarines are getting back to their Roman themes, instead of the Matt Ward era Smurfs that were just "the perfect baseline" when being the best overal basis is what the Imperial Fists are about, being the stalwart brick wall they have been trained to be.
    I also do enjoy that Guilliman's Ultra-depression is sprinkling down the ranks through his legion, the Ultramarines being perfectionist due to their failure to reach Terra on time to save the Emperor is a nice detail that makes them less bland to me. While the Imperial Fists are the best they can be out of pride for their performance in holding Terra against all of Hell and actually winning, the UM are perfectionist out of shame for not bringing assistance until the very end, far too late.
