For the Dark Age of Technology tech to still work for thousands of years and still have a long battery life as a statement of humanity technological innovation and pinnacle of near god like powers.
There’s this old lore vlog by some GW franchise writers where they talk about DAOT humanity, golden age elder and the necrons. They said outright that DAOT humanity was a lot closer to the necrons than most people think, but aren’t directly comparable due to humanity having some psychic potential causing them to move down what they described as a slightly different tech tree. So yeah, DAOT humanity was ridiculous,
@@NemFXnah our tech tapped into the warp (inadvertently) due to our natural psychic potential, while Necrons conquered the natural laws of the material universe and were able to bend reality to their whim.
The fact that the Iimperium could reach and maintain its scale for 10,000 years without innovating or in any way improving on the barest dregs of the leftovers of DAoT humanity's technology is testament to the heights humanity reached. No surprise that the Aeldari and Orks would have treaties with DAoT humanity; pretty sure even the Necrons wouldn't have treated humanity with apathy had they been awake at the time.
Wish we got a few books on the DOAT human empire just like halo got a trilogy about rhe forerunners who were the most (well second after the precursors/flood) powerful and advanced species in their universe
I wonder how involved the Emporer was in creating the tech from the dark age? What if he designed the A.I. to overthrow humanity just so he could pop out as Billy Badass save you all?
I think he played role in the creation of Navigators/ He probably tried to guide humanity from the shadows and once it didn't work he decided to brute force it
No, humans caused the Cybernetic Revolt by doing what so many humans have always done- treating their servants with no respect..... if you just want obedient machines don't give them the ability to think for themselves cause they might want to do their own thing.
Im glad you were there and witnessed the facts of the case :D. What if AI since it was self-aware got corrupted by chaos? Everyone can be right or wrong on this one.
@@TheLostPrimarch I tend to lean on the Aeldari doing SOMETHING shifty. It isn't like their behavior of redirecting their enemies at other races while pretending they have no idea how it happened is something that started in the 41st millenium. The knife ears also have an interesting habit of keeping their supremacy by attacking allies and crippling them. At a time when the orks thought the umies were too killy to scrap with, I can easily imagine Aeldari ambasadors delivering a tainted device hidden in a gift. Then, after the virus or scrap code had time to work, offer help to whoever was fighting against rebellious AI, and being the only race to mysteriously finish the war intact. 😂😂😂
I heard that space marine armors are just hazmat suits or mining suits from the Dark age, pretty crazy. I wonder how powerful power armor really is from that time. Anyway, can you make a video about Tau Navy and their battles. I watched The Exodite show and get interested in Tau ships.
It was specifically Terminator armor that was based on DAOT hazmat suit designs, specifically suits meant to operate on , and likely inside of, starship reactors.
@@TheLostPrimarch 'Muricans love accents as we don't think we have one 😂. There was a study that showed Americans found British English to sound the most intelligent while the french language was found to sound the geyest...
It could be that it was the C'Tan instead, specifically Void Dragon. There is a suspicious level of similarity between Necrons (Destroyers in particular) and AdMech. Emperor imprisoning the shard of Void Dragon on Mars apparently boosted humanity's technological progress so it wouldn't be Too surprising if thinking machines were infected with hate for humanity by the C'Tan.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Emperor initiated the AI wars himself. He could never become a god-figure to such an advanced civilization. They would laugh him off the planet. But a desperate and dying civilizarion is much easier to subdue and take over
Considering the Votann and Dark Angels both still have Men of Iron, that's unlikely. It's probably like how it was stated in the Votann lore: The Squats treat MoI as equals and Kin. Regular humans didn't, and the AI got pissed eventually
Event Horizon isn't canon to 40k explicitly on both ends. The Director never heard of 40k before making the movie. It's pure serendipity. In Warhammer, Humanity didn't leave the Solar System or discover the Warp until the 15th Millennium, 13,000 years after when Event Horizon takes place
Golden age humanity was on par with the necrons at their height. The castigator titan alone was an insane achievement. A titan that moved like a person and powered by AI. Damn eldar and their blood orgies ruined everything.
Just look at what happened after ww2 when the first nuclear bomb was dropped and how the unchecked destruction that resulted in almost leading to the death of the world, but it was through understanding and progress were we able to repeat such a catastrophe
Always good videos. My only problem with 40k and the way they represent DAOT tech still in use, is the tech is always so primitive. For example, whenever we've seen structures or even ships that survived from the DAOT, they're not even in the least bit impressive. The authors seem to associate "technology" with "lots of weapons/guns" and that's about it. For example, we've seen 2 examples now of DAO ships. When the AI was triggered, the AI was impressive, as was the unique weaponry. But what about the rest of the ship? Downright primitive. Wouldn't the DAO have metallurgy on a completely different level? The Imperium uses a primitive approach of "want better armor? Make it it bigger/thicker/heavier"! Nothing impressive about that. When you think of an ultra advanced society, do you think of large, clunky, and heavy? No. When people claim to have seen/found crashed UFO's for example, the metal is always "thin, and weightless, light as foil". That's advanced. But these ships are so primitive that they completely flew under the radar minus their size. No one suspected it was capable of wondrous deeds. And the same applies to the armor, weapons, anything that is a hold-over from the DAOT might have a few aspects of improvement, but that's about it. Yet we hear about all these wonderful, mindblowing things they could do, whereas in practice, any time we see their tech in action, it's rarely a giant leap over what the Imperium produces today. The writers need to stop associating "just make it bigger and add more cool guns" with "Advanced", and really put some thought into how much of a giant chasm there should be between the current Imperium and the DAOT tech. It should borderline look like magic due to the gap in technology.
There are some examples of tech fears from the DAOT that do properly showcase the technological disparity. One of them is referred to as an Ontological weapon, which was a DAOT relic tech that the Dark Angels legion had a few instances of, and essentially removes anything it hits from both existence and the timestream, making it so that it is like whatever was hit never existed to begin with, though not perfectly, as the DA who shot some corrupted ship crewmen with it still remembered that what he shot were corrupted ship crewmen, just nothing specific at all about them despite serving on that ship for many years and Astartes having perfect photographic memories. Another example are the Mechanovores, which you've probably heard of before, those big Unicron-like siege engines that bite chunks out of planets to get rid of fortified enemy strongpoints and such by consuming and unmaking what it engulfs on a fundamental level, describes as eating the very spacetime "data" of existence itself. There was also a DAOT relic ship called the Slaughtersong which was caught in a Warp storm until the 41st millennium, but when it was rediscovered, the ship was not corrupted by the Warp, being incredibly clean and optimal looking. It had powerful energy weapons, hundreds of advanced automated fighters, and get this, was described as being partially built from hardlight, meaning that if sufficiently powered, it could quickly repair from any damage and maintain itself indefinitely, which would go a way to explain how it survived being ok a Warp storm unmolested for so many millennia. There were also some examples of DAOT relic weapons/devices used by the Admech against the Necrons in the recent Pariah Nexus lore, with one example causing a dimensional vortex that expanded from a singularity that swallowed up both the Necron fleet, the Admech fleet that deployed it, as well as a good chunk of a nearby planet. Oh yeah, there are also mentions and even an official image of the Leagues of Votann (a faction whose tech would be from the very start of the DAOT) of having ships/devices that can break apart entire planets and even stars relatively quickly for the sake of better extracting resources.
That's because it's supposed to hint that despite all the Extreme tech, even in the Dark Age of Technology, Life for a normal Human wasn't good, and is barely any better than living in the Imperium. In 40k it's always sucked to live
Knights, some of the most renowned war machines in the imperium reserved for nobility and their adepts and scions alike, were literally environmental suits used by common folk. Wowie.
Terminator armor was idealistic in things like ship boarding where yes dedicated breacher squads armed with breacher shields held more flexibility but lacked any real firepower or defenses, compared to a single terminator armed with an assault cannon shoved into the middle of a ships corridor and you essentially have the equivalent of either a 20mm spaa or an A10 warthog standing in front of you which is why they are a mix between a light armored fighting vehicle and heavy infantry along with older models being given personal force shields increases their destructive capabilities even further especially against a well defended and static target such as say ww2 Omaha beach where a single five man terminator squad would’ve easily captured the beach on their own with one or two losses, all the while being able to simply walk up to a navel gun battery and take a shell to the face and keep going is what they were designed for, and that’s how they were used, which is why terminators are equipped with both ranged and melee weapons for added flexibility and for anyone who hasn’t played space hulk I dare you to get three other friends, give them all an assault cannon and stand in the middle of a corridor as a swarm of tyranids come at you 😂😂
It is said that in order to prove that the wearer was human, the first Terminator Armor had a built-in test to discern man from machine. This was known as the Captchaphractii Pattern Terminator Armor
The closest form of power armor we actually have would actually be either deep sea pressure suits, designed specifically for deep sea salvage and recovery or maintenance, such suits are designed to withstand the incredibly high pressures of the deep sea, another form of exo or power armor available to us would be EVA or astronaut suits, whilst not exactly armor in the more traditional sense such as preventing bullets, however the armor is capable of withstand the incredible amount of radiation and heat as well as the freezing temperatures of space, all the while being capable of withstanding small impacts and debris but isn’t able to withstand kinetic impacts such as say a small pebble at the speed of a bullet. But again most modern military vehicles and equipment are based off of civilian items such as the tank which was based off of the old American tracked tractors or hell the American lvt buffalo was based off of a similar design used by Arizonan swampers due to its amphibious nature and was used extensively in the pacific due to its fantastic ability to swim as well as cross small rivers and streams and was able to be used in a variety of beach landings.
Tau has star trek warp drives, borrowed from Kroot. If they managed that, I am sure humanity also did have that at some point. Because generational ships cant even manage an empire that big even in 10000 years, and "warp" drive is also too unreliable to form and maintain a galaxy large empire considering it still took 100 years in some cases to arrive at a location. They must have had something in between.
I always learn so much with videos and content like this, but I have all the gaps filled in by knowledgeable and nice people in the comments. I love the 40K community!
can you tell us anything about everyday tech used by the imperium? how advanced is it? what if someone breaks their back, can it be repaired? what kind of cybernetics are there? how advanced is medicine? are there civilian vehicles?
Kinda hard to creat new technologies and having a 1/3 chance to summon a fucking demon. Thats why finding random bits and pieces of already really really well crafted technology is the safest way to go. + if praying to the machine makes it work, so why not do it?
@@TheLostPrimarchwhen angron came back wasn't he going after a device that was described as a mini astronomicon? If that was built during the DAOT what if instead of having one giant lighthouse there were hundreds to thousands of them scattered across the Galaxy?
What is the name of the soundtrack you use in the background, throughout the duration of the video? I'm just asking, considering it's difficult to find it on other Warhammer 40k channel videos, like The Amber king.
The funny thing about the "scientific" explanation for the Chaos gods, that being "they're simply reflections of emotions" is that it doesn't actually answer anything. Okay, they're reflections of emotions... Why do things as subjective as emotions have the ability to create an entire other dimension? It's like solving a murder by going "Ah, well this person died because someone killed them. Case closed." 😂
That dimension has always existed since the creation of everything. It is like a mirror. Imagine a battery cell that has + and - . Material universe is + and Imaterium is - , like two sides of the same coin and both are bound to each other. Everything that is not MATERIAL in nature, piles up in Imaterium, energy has to go somewhere, if it is psychic energy including emotions (which is not physical) then it goes to Imaterium. Does this provide better explanation?
It's a good thing we were endowed with the ability to perceive the Reason inherent in the universe, such that our faith doesn't have to be blind at all. "Blind faith" only applies to those with no or little understanding of natural theology.
@@TheLostPrimarch the mechanicus is MASSIVE. They're not merely a part of the imperium, they're a sister empire. Tech priests are not ignorant of science, on the contrary they recognize that recreating dark age tech without ai would take ages if it were at all possible. They wager that they're more likely to make advancements by recovering lost tech.
That is what I am implying, they are focused on maintaining what they have instead of innovation, it is not an innovation if you find some type of an STC and use it improve upon existing technology, it is merely once again copying for from the Dark Age Tech. I never said also that mechanicus is small, I just stated the fact that generally Imperium is bigger so I don't even know why you are making that part of the argument. I will repeat, finding tech, or finding a shard of an STC is not innovation. Generally I don't really understand your argument here, because my statement is that Ad-Mechs don't innovate and basically hope to finding STCs and keep maintaining their current technology, while at the same time they are not trying to fully comprehend inner workings of the machine, if they don't have a template they can't make it. There is literally a story where ad-mechs went to war for an STC of a freaking wrench, so don't tell me they understand science, they see tech and they worship it. Knowing patterns, which button to push, which level to pull isn't science, it is factory work, and while chanting hail Omnissiah makes them ad-mechs. Yes there are some of individual mechanicus representatives like Cawl who is not afraid of innovation without templates, but they are literally shunned and viewed as heretical.
@@TheLostPrimarch no, the problem is that you frame them as religious zealots who don't understand anything but whose proficiency in use of tech is a product of ritualism. The size of the mechanicus is relevant because they're not idiologically identical across forge worlds. Many, do innovate but those innovations are a product of reapplying other tech. The point of this narrative is to identify the internal contradictions within the mechanicus. They innovate constantly and where they draw the line is quite arbitrary. The problem is that they're forbidden from making the invention that made all the other inventions.
I don't support your opinion and I disagree. Simple as that. Currently it feels you are saying a lot of nothing and basically stating that the only thing ad-mechs aren't allowed to innovate is AI, which is just wrong, because there are quite obvious example, like when Primaris appeared, they view Emperor as embodiment of Omnissiah and thus believe it is heresy that anyone improved upon the work of Space Marines. They would literally lynch Cawl if it wasn't for G man. There is no true innovative soul for the Ad-mechs, you can see it in the inner monologues of Cawl and then Spirit of Eternity dug through the memory of magos. Even now you still haven't clearly stated what you are trying to prove, onyl just that you want to oppose my opinion, which is fine, but as it is with all warhammer lore, just because you believe I am wrong, doesn't make me wrong, and since you don't provide any reasonable explanation but rather just your way of how you view ad-mechs, then I don't see the reason to continue. Lets agree to disagree and leave it at that.
I’m kinda sick of the whole ‘current military stuff was daot civilian stuff’ , like it’s not always the case even it is doesn’t mean the daot was 100 times more powerful, if it’s cuz tech either the military stuff is unimaginably powerful, or they where mostly civilian and barley; militarized during the revolt, and stuff made for civilians are militarized all the time, and daot wasn’t really United, like various nations like today having cold wars, skirmish’s or proper wars is how they made the tech, and mostly done by ai
That's a pretty liberal outlook you got on technology for a guy who's got enough videos posted that with a little bit if work could be replaced by the AI generated Lost PryMark.
Can we stop saying cogito ergo sum. Shits been discredited for 400 years now and wasnt even remotely impressive for the time. Des Cartes is good for math and reintroducing skepticism back into the western world otherwise he’s a lack luster philosopher and an amazing mathematician.

Glad you understand, but the numbers really don't lie, at least we have NERD at the end
FOR THE ALGORITHM FOR THE EMPEROR
I thought terminator armour used to be mining equipment
Aren't Inferno Pistols and Volkite weaponry also dark-age tech that the Imprerium did it's best to replicate by manufacturing meltas and plasmas?
I think you are right on this one
Kinda hard to creat new technologies and having a 1/3 chance to summon a fucking demon.
Thats why finding random bits and pieces of already really really well crafted technology is the safest way to go.
+ if praying to the machine makes it work, so why not do it?
How did the 1st Human Interstellar Civilization navigate without the Astronomicon?
They used AI to make short warp jumps, but it wasn't that accurate, some ships got lost im the warp like the Spirit of Eternity
@@TheLostPrimarchwhen angron came back wasn't he going after a device that was described as a mini astronomicon? If that was built during the DAOT what if instead of having one giant lighthouse there were hundreds to thousands of them scattered across the Galaxy?
@@TheLostPrimarch It also helped the warp wasn't so effed up before the super degen Eldar murder effed Slaneesh into existence.
What is the name of the soundtrack you use in the background, throughout the duration of the video? I'm just asking, considering it's difficult to find it on other Warhammer 40k channel videos, like The Amber king.
You need the first or the second :D?
@@TheLostPrimarch The first one
From the Mechanicus game
Children of Omnissiah
The funny thing about the "scientific" explanation for the Chaos gods, that being "they're simply reflections of emotions" is that it doesn't actually answer anything. Okay, they're reflections of emotions... Why do things as subjective as emotions have the ability to create an entire other dimension? It's like solving a murder by going "Ah, well this person died because someone killed them. Case closed." 😂
That dimension has always existed since the creation of everything. It is like a mirror. Imagine a battery cell that has + and - . Material universe is + and Imaterium is - , like two sides of the same coin and both are bound to each other. Everything that is not MATERIAL in nature, piles up in Imaterium, energy has to go somewhere, if it is psychic energy including emotions (which is not physical) then it goes to Imaterium. Does this provide better explanation?
Adrathic weapons are awesome
There is a difference between faith and blind faith
Faith is always blind to a degree
That is true
It's a good thing we were endowed with the ability to perceive the Reason inherent in the universe, such that our faith doesn't have to be blind at all. "Blind faith" only applies to those with no or little understanding of natural theology.
You're completely wrong about the mechanicus.
You are more than welcomed to explain why I am wrong.
@@TheLostPrimarch the mechanicus is MASSIVE. They're not merely a part of the imperium, they're a sister empire. Tech priests are not ignorant of science, on the contrary they recognize that recreating dark age tech without ai would take ages if it were at all possible. They wager that they're more likely to make advancements by recovering lost tech.
That is what I am implying, they are focused on maintaining what they have instead of innovation, it is not an innovation if you find some type of an STC and use it improve upon existing technology, it is merely once again copying for from the Dark Age Tech. I never said also that mechanicus is small, I just stated the fact that generally Imperium is bigger so I don't even know why you are making that part of the argument. I will repeat, finding tech, or finding a shard of an STC is not innovation.
Generally I don't really understand your argument here, because my statement is that Ad-Mechs don't innovate and basically hope to finding STCs and keep maintaining their current technology, while at the same time they are not trying to fully comprehend inner workings of the machine, if they don't have a template they can't make it. There is literally a story where ad-mechs went to war for an STC of a freaking wrench, so don't tell me they understand science, they see tech and they worship it. Knowing patterns, which button to push, which level to pull isn't science, it is factory work, and while chanting hail Omnissiah makes them ad-mechs.
Yes there are some of individual mechanicus representatives like Cawl who is not afraid of innovation without templates, but they are literally shunned and viewed as heretical.
@@TheLostPrimarch no, the problem is that you frame them as religious zealots who don't understand anything but whose proficiency in use of tech is a product of ritualism. The size of the mechanicus is relevant because they're not idiologically identical across forge worlds. Many, do innovate but those innovations are a product of reapplying other tech. The point of this narrative is to identify the internal contradictions within the mechanicus. They innovate constantly and where they draw the line is quite arbitrary. The problem is that they're forbidden from making the invention that made all the other inventions.
I don't support your opinion and I disagree. Simple as that. Currently it feels you are saying a lot of nothing and basically stating that the only thing ad-mechs aren't allowed to innovate is AI, which is just wrong, because there are quite obvious example, like when Primaris appeared, they view Emperor as embodiment of Omnissiah and thus believe it is heresy that anyone improved upon the work of Space Marines. They would literally lynch Cawl if it wasn't for G man. There is no true innovative soul for the Ad-mechs, you can see it in the inner monologues of Cawl and then Spirit of Eternity dug through the memory of magos. Even now you still haven't clearly stated what you are trying to prove, onyl just that you want to oppose my opinion, which is fine, but as it is with all warhammer lore, just because you believe I am wrong, doesn't make me wrong, and since you don't provide any reasonable explanation but rather just your way of how you view ad-mechs, then I don't see the reason to continue. Lets agree to disagree and leave it at that.
No "Hello Nerd"? I'm not feeling the love. 😥

I’m kinda sick of the whole ‘current military stuff was daot civilian stuff’ , like it’s not always the case even it is doesn’t mean the daot was 100 times more powerful, if it’s cuz tech either the military stuff is unimaginably powerful, or they where mostly civilian and barley; militarized during the revolt, and stuff made for civilians are militarized all the time, and daot wasn’t really United, like various nations like today having cold wars, skirmish’s or proper wars is how they made the tech, and mostly done by ai
👍👍👍❤❤❤
That's a pretty liberal outlook you got on technology for a guy who's got enough videos posted that with a little bit if work could be replaced by the AI generated Lost PryMark.
you will be the first thing ai replaces.
Good luck with that!
Can we stop saying cogito ergo sum. Shits been discredited for 400 years now and wasnt even remotely impressive for the time. Des Cartes is good for math and reintroducing skepticism back into the western world otherwise he’s a lack luster philosopher and an amazing mathematician.
So the Emperor basically did what Marvin Heemeyer did with a bulldozer.
