‘I do not care who knows the truth now, tomorrow, or in ten thousand years. Loyalty is its own reward.’ - Lion El'Jonson I feel that noone who learned anything from the Lion or his teaching would ever concern themselves with the question of loyalty. They just are, it is not a question.
His one quote does not wash out all the actions and consequences of those actions that his legion have made after ... He is loyal but his legion act the opposite. They are loyal though.
@@wiggy5209 They are loyal, but they are technically traitors to the Imperium. When Johnson wakes up he's definitely going to be dishing out some punishment to the inner circles of the Unforgiven.
@@moncey1120 maybe, but I see him laying waste to chaos, and will find those "errant" sons, from Luther down Cypher and all in between. Remember, the Luther faction drew first blood.
"I'm done with first born marines." I mean, yeah, you have the entire first and second company there, there are no more marines lol. Gorgeous collection.
The dark angels are the most loyal space marine chapter in all of the imperium There totally isn’t a dark angel holding a bolt pistol at the back of my head *chuckles nervously*
Now THAT is a nice collection. Little bit of classic, little bit of new, all looking awesome. With how much some people like to crap on space marines, looking at that table you get a sense of what a huge army is supposed to look like, and it's a feeling I don't get from looking at other large forces.
And now the Dark Angels have one of the best all around looking models with the Lion. The face/expression is perfect, the helmet is amazing, the way the Watchers can hold various items is efficient. Whoever designed the Lion and the new Angron definetly incorporate actual physics in the design. Like they think of surface area, viscosity, topography, etc. which makes those models look incredible with contrast paint and make methods like slap chop and 'eavy metal easier and more forgiving. Like even a thin coat of nuln oil will bring out insane detail. Very very cool model the new Lion El' Johnson
Wish the Lion would wake up all of a sudden and be like "Why do I sense....the color Green? I don't like this feeling, hopefully I'll never get to see this color in mass or large abundance - Anyways, where is my legion?."
@@snakeyman5560 I liked the comment then unliked it quicker than the DAs leaving in the middle of a war to hunt the Fallen. Imo purple is cool but not as the whole armor, returning to their roots in black armor would be my wish and maybe mix in purple for cloth and whatnot.
@@rwyot767 God yes I want them to go back to Black. I was looking at the new Dark Angels ultima founding successors and one of the chapters is slick af in this smooth and slippery purple.
@@snakeyman5560 Honestly at this point I’ll take anything but the swamp green, leave that to the Salamanders. And the Fallen thing is a nothing problem, I want the Lion to slap current Dark Angels upside the head and tell them “Go say sorry to your brothers for hunting them down and killing them.”
@@snakeyman5560 congratulations, if they actually will change their colors again all Dark Angels players who just finished painting their last model will be after you XD
Oh it is glorious to see my chapter represented in such fine detail. None of us is heretical, Why would you even say that? Unless you know of the Fallen! He know's of the Fallen! Brother Interrogator-Chaplain, He needs to Repent!
I think this was the original lore of Luther but with the new book, it is revealed that he never actually turned to chaos and he rejected every chance he got. All he wanted to do was help Caliban but despite his rejection of them, Chaos still managed to cloud his vision. One of the last things he said before he left was, I would only seek redemption from the one I betrayed which was the Lion. Paraphrased the quote but you get the gist of it. He really wasn’t a bad guy, just confused. BTW, this is less for your comment than for people who want to know more about his confused loyalties
Dark Angels are my favorite chapter. Something about them and their "Knightly" aura really appeals to me. Before I really knew what 40k was, Dark Angels were accidentally my first Marines. I got a small packet of 2 metal DA Veterans. Not only that, But they are 3 armies in 1. Deathwing, Ravenwing and Greenwing, each being its own playstyle like he said in the video. But finally; LOYALTY IS ITS OWN REWARD!
Same reason I chose them for the knightly way they are and loyal, I just hate how some authors make us out to be c**ts and disloyal. I understand our need to purge the fallen but the very first lore I read about them was how loyal and adherence to all forms of chivalry etc now that author I shall not name ( must be a fallen trying to get DA excommunicated)
I'm working my way toward that. Finishing up my primaris battle company, then the Deathwing, Ravenwing, and Scout company. Was a great vid and I love to see people who have been in the game as long as I have.
This is one of the biggest and most beautiful armies I have ever seen! He did such a great job with the layout and painting of these models. I hope he doesn't stop so we can see another video of his army.
nice speedy video cuts, chilled dudes, much love in this army - if I may suggest: it would not hurt to have more closeup shots and less moving camera shots of this wonderful minis. Would have enjoyed focusing more on them while listening to the chat in the background.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they are the next two Primarchs to come back. The 13th Great Company of the Space Wolves just came back (Leman left for the Eye of Terror with them) which hints toward Leman coming back, and Luther has escaped and the fallen angels are gathering, which hints towards a confrontation between the Lion and Luther. Edit: Of course when you consider the pace at which GW advances the plot, we can expect them to come back sometime in the next decade.
@@filwilliamson9149 We had a Tau apocalypse match already....and honestly, more Tau won't change the fact that it's still Tau. Granted, it was a HELLUVA blast, but I'd like to see more variety in the armies on PlayOn's roster. When was the last time we saw a Tyranid army? All the way back in that first Apocalypse match. Orks? On Kill Team Challenger Episode 1 and never in a proper 40K game. Necrons? Also on Kill Team Challenger, see Orks. Eldar? All the way back in the Season 1 Championship. Drukhari? On that one Kill Team game vs. Tau and never seen again since. Knights? ...OK, we saw Tycho field a full squad of Knights against Paul(Which there is NO WAY he should have lost that game-I was screaming at Paul to MOVE HIS MODELS ONTO OBJECTIVES ALREADY!). But the last Imperial robot we saw was back in the same Tyranid Apocalypse game. I could go on and on-the only factions PlayOn seems to field consistently are AdMech, Chaos, Space Marines(admittedly a different chapter every time), and Tau. So honestly, I don't care who-as long as it isn't ANY of the four above(or in the case of the Space Marines, at LEAST a chapter new to PlayOn!)
Warm greetings from a hut in the snow-covered forests! You have wonderful miniatures and excellent work! Thank you so much for the inspiration given by this demonstration!
This is the best way to show an army they give some lore you get to know the army more and hear intresting facts meanwhile they show you the army its amazing
@@ger5956 If you were surrounded on all sides by forces that want to exterminate you because they think you shouldn't exist either, I think you might view things more like most chapters view their enemies. When it's them or us kind of thing, my bolters says you go first.
I’ve been collecting an ultramarine successor chapter for a little over a year now (new Covid hobby) but the Dark Angels were my favorite marines before I got into it actually getting my own models. love their story, their color scheme, the old knight sword-and-shield esthetic, and their variety compared to other chapters, but I ended up going with an Ultramarine successor chapter for my marines for the rules. However, I use a lot of dark Angel pieces on my models still for the awesome helmets and shoulders, and even converted Master Lazarus into my proxy for Guilliman. TLDR, love the vid, excited to see these boys again one day, might make my own small DA army for the fun of it
I watched the father and son bat-rep the other day and was thinking Chris was from Liverpool! Glad to know I was right as I'm a fellow Scouser and to get that wrong would have been embarrassing...
Well that’s beautiful. I’ve a similar sized DA army myself, and it’s always a joy to see someone else’s version of it. I certainly don’t have as many Landraiders myself. 💚
Holy crap, that tidbit about the renegade Dark Angels makes me want a story about a defector who tries to just live out a simple life on a far off planet, but is hunted down by the Dark Angels.
when he went "i gotta play" I felt that.... 2008-2009 must have been when i put the hobby aside, recently read some 40k lore again and wallethammer is back
Wow, I started with Dark Angels when I got the Deathwing expansion to Space Hulk probably in 90/91, so only the 30 or so years, but only have 140 or so, though still working through the paint jobs, 25ish models to go (but I doubt it will get to the end, bound to be more bought in the meantime), this looks like. Seeing a fully done army like this is amazing!
This is amazing. Dark Angels are my 'home team' and I discovered Play On because of Chris Jones' Dark Angels vs. Astra Militarum. All the love that the robed murder hobos have gotten in the last few weeks warms my (slightly) heretical heart.
Pretty cool collection. It was interesting to hear about the lore and backstory of the DA. Although for such showcase I'd have the following questions: "Is there any favorite unit/model in this collection?" "Which model has the best story? Most heroic deed, or epic battle to remember."
Man great looking Army! I really love the Deathwing Terminators and Knights in general. I started this year also with a Dark Angels Army and will go Heavy Deathwing because they are cool as hell.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING SOO LONG FOR A NEW EPISODE OF THIS AND IT IS FINELY HER WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. and god i love that ares patern land raider hope gw makes some proper rules for it so it can be alowed to play in matched but holy shit that model looks so buterful. other then that great vid hope to see more of this in the future
I love how Caliban blew up *after* the Heresy, and Russ fully knew there were tens of thousands of marines on Caliban, yet the Dark Angels still think the existence of the Fallen is a big secret. Probably every chapter master knows (possibly every loyalist in general). But they just roll their eyes whenever the Dark Angels show up and play dumb, just to make sure DA stays loyal.
That was awesome watching. I been building and painting my Dark Angels since the 3rd edition?. I started by picking up the second skinny DA codex was out. After I started about 3 months later the 1/4" codex came out. But I have no where near you size in forces. At best I think I'm around 9000 points. I'm a lousy player, but love the fiction and you comment about the Fallen being Loyal and the Dark Angels being the bad is interesting.
Anyone wondering what the watchers in the dark are they are an ancient alien race tasked by the Kabal (alien alliance against chaos) to keep the demon prince trapped inside Caliban from escaping. Part of what makes the dark angels lore so cool is that 4 factions were vying for control of the legion during the heresy, marines loyal to emperor, those loyal to luthor, the corrupted librarian Zahariel who was loyal to the demon prince, and the lion who wasn't entirely loyal to the emperor.
I really don’t wanna be that guy but the watchers in the dark are not chaos. When the changling, a demon of tzeench, saw a watcher in the dark it screamed and cried then ran away
Awesome video, this gentleman honors the chapter ! And great hosting with Nick. Small secret : watchers in the dark are hobbits. Keep it to yourselves.
Really love, nicks enthusiasm! I will soon be ready to come up there and believe it or not. I want Nick and his Genestealer cultists to be my first opponent
1:18 What mystique? The dark angels definitely don't have a mystique, as that would imply that they keep secrets, which they definitely do not do! They are a perfectly loyal chapter who do not spend all their time and resources hiding a dark secret about their past heresies!
It goes up very quickly when You field 8 full squads of Terminator Deathwings. Some Deathwing Knights in Assault Land Raiders for a charge on disembark. And then An entire Ravenwing with Bikes and Planes.
Hey, mum! It's me!
Beautiful army dude! Thanks for showcasing it with us!
Hey Chris, hope we'll see you play with that army some time soon. Your appearance on the channel is easily one of its highlights!
This is glorious!
How many % of the chapter do you own? Surely more than one battle company!
@@brothertobias About a demi-company of each
Hi son
"Got any Alpha Legion here?"
"Maybe."
That is the correct answer, yes.
Absolutely gorgeous collection, mate

"The Hydra awakes."
Alpha Legion translates to First Legion anyways doesn't it? So technically, yes. :)
This is a lie
"Weren't there like...twice as many of you guys last week?"
"...no?"
What do you mean? They were definitely the same number of marines. I promise there isn't a bolter held to my cranium.
They died when the planet exploded
They have some of the best lore of all the chapters.

Mine were Ultramarines as I read Dark Imperium but now I’m fascinated by Lamenters and Black Dragons!
Greenwing? Don't you mean the Ironwing? Did they change the name? The Ironwing isn't mentioned much, but it is the armored force of the DA.
Loyalty is indeed its own reward, but a thank you would be nice.

Glad you like it!
Nick geeking out over other people's armies is the best thing ^u^
This is one of the biggest and most beautiful armies I have ever seen! He did such a great job with the layout and painting of these models. I hope he doesn't stop so we can see another video of his army.
Loved this video so much, would love to see more like this. Its always a treat to see people chat about their army and see their passion.
And Chris is a Warhammer Hero. He has done a lot in our community and is a local inspiration.
This guy should have a channel of his own. His voice is so soothing.
holy shit thats a lot. i saw 14,000 points and was like: huh couldnt be that big...
When I set up my space wolves it covers the entire lounge room floor !
I love how patient Chris is being with Nick, trying to explain the specific lore to someone who only knows the broad strokes can be so frustrating
And I love Nick's obvious enthusiasm even with the playful digs at the memed nature of the Dark Angels.
Chris Jones is a great guy and it is a pleasure seeing him on the channel.

"Heretics or Heroes" ? That depends on the dice rolls, they could even become cannon fodder
14k of Dark Angels = my respect
Not seeing the entire chapter = disappointment
Conclusion = 14k of Space Marines is not enough...
I remember in an old White Dwarf they had a full chapter of marines and it was like 25000 points
This was really entertaining, hoping to see more
1:18 What mystique? The dark angels definitely don't have a mystique, as that would imply that they keep secrets, which they definitely do not do! They are a perfectly loyal chapter who do not spend all their time and resources hiding a dark secret about their past heresies!

It goes up very quickly when You field 8 full squads of Terminator Deathwings. Some Deathwing Knights in Assault Land Raiders for a charge on disembark. And then An entire Ravenwing with Bikes and Planes.
That is cool. Every time I see someone showcase their army, it makes me want to do better in painting my Space Wolves
awesome army. saw it in person, loved playing against them
