You know Moloc is the kind of guy to get the Fum Solano... it just fits his vibe
Be a Space Spartan, get FUM for 10% off here : tryfum.com/MAJORKILL
then there was moment when Asterion Moloch was scared Shitless by Tyberos rather easily
fun fact Asterion Moloch is fucking terrified about Carchadons expecially Tyberos
Is there any evidence to suggest cawl found Sharrowkyn with the primarch juice and then turned him into Alpha Primus?
@@no-nonseplayer6612to be fair i doubt a good chunk of the primarchs would take tyberos in a 1v1 so fearing him is only natural.
I know we live in a time of primarch worship but come on lorgar isn't beating tyberos and neither is guilliman.
@@PeachDragon_ well Guilliman probably doesnt need to beat Tyberos he Will nicely Ask what space Sharks need and IT Will Be delivered on timely Manner well lorgar Will get his ASS beat Black and blue by typeros
New video idea:Who are the chief librarians of each chapter? (Just the original 18 legions)
Chapter *
@@MaxTw1st thank you brother
there are a lot of chapters. maybe just the founding ones?
Alternative idea: The Goofiest Chapters In The Setting
This could be two videos: one for every legion (that had one) and one for all the first founding chapters plus a few notable ones
Yeah Moloch sounds like he's strong because the high lords gave him access to spicy dark age tech rather than him being a custodes or a primarch in disguise
That and (given that the Minotaurs make a point of picking him up if he drops) they use the old Revenant legion tradition of his successor just eating his brain to assimilate the memory. This is a general thing a marine can do, it just doesn't come up too often.
@@Badgertron2009 yeah possibly if they don't use that proteus protocol or something
If the Minotaurs used the Proteus Protocol, every Space Marine chapter would be happy to hunt them down.
@@robertnelson9599 you know what that's fair. They probably do just use the standard space marine gaining knowledge from eating the dead thing along with getting spicy tech through the influence of the high lords
@@robertnelson9599 what is that ?
Both Asterion Moloc and Tyberos are very much alike in a sense that they both are Chapter Masters of very mysterious and fearsome Space Marine Chapters. Both are also known to be absolute monsters in close combat who can easily slaughter entire squads of Astartes without breaking a sweat.
and both are huge for Space Marines standards
And both are made at least partially of traitor gene seed and yet fought for the loyalist chapters during the badaab war.
Honestly the loyalist chapters of that war all being traitor successors while the insurrectionists are all loyalist successors would have been so cool but IDK if it's fully confirmed yet. I do know that the Red Scorpions were also Loyalist at Badaab but they're likely derived from Emperor's Children gene seed.
I wonder how Asterion or Tyberos would do against Kharn or Grimnar
I love this absolute unit for so many reasons. His Chapter are terrifying as Hell, he's just tough enough to give Custode pause, but not comically OP, he barely needs to say a word to get what he needs done (Like that time he told one of his raging Contemptors to "Cease" and that was that) and because he just refuses to die out of sheer spite.
and funny thing is even minotaurs have refused to face of carcadons multible times
@@no-nonseplayer6612 As a hardcore Carcharodons fan, I'd say that's because the Minotaurs have better things to do than fight a firmly Loyalist Chapter when they could be clapping a Chaos Warbands' cheeks instead. In my opinion, the Carcharodons are roughly equal to the Minotaurs in strength.
I love the "cease"
@@jahrusalem3658I see it as respect from the badab war (butchered that shit). As the shark boys were as terrifying if not more so than the minotaurs, which made him respect them.
Moloch is definitely a Gigachad, for sure. Would love to see the Lion meet him tbh
I always thought he was one of the Thunder Warriors that survived the purge at the hands of the Custodies. It would explain why they were loyal to the High Lords of Terra since they stuck up for the Thunder Warriors by criticizing the Emperor for the purge. It would also explain why they are more then happy to take on a Custodies for the High Lords.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOohhhhh dasa cool theory!
Video idea: "what if the tyranids invaded during the great crusade? Or the necrons awoke during the great crusade?" Curious how the legions would stand against them, except big e probably brain blast them
I honestly believe there is something Major going in with both Asterion Molo and Tyberos The Red Wake. They are both abnormally large for astartes, both have Primarch like weapons, and have an absolute beast record in combat. I think they might have something to do with the two lost legions. Especially Tyberos who’s said to be the size of a Primarch.
Tyberos was never said to be the size of a Primarch, it's fan lore. In full armor is just a head taller than his terminators guards, this is nothing too out of the ordinary when we already had giant Space Marines like Abaddon or Alexis Pollux. "He stood apart from his brethren, alone, a dozen paces behind them. Even by the standards of the Adeptus Astartes the figure was a giant, standing a head above the rest. He too was clad in Tactical Dreadnought armour, and for a moment Otte’s analytics glitched, informing him he was looking at a graven statue." Extract from The Outer Dark about Tyberos
@@wakito64yeah Alexis was so huge Guilliman went "holy shit what do they feed you". He was likely bigger than Tyberos
@@wakito64 i mean, not kinda at the size of abaddon or alexis, because i think it was stated that he use’d modefied terminator armor with dreadnaught parts, making him probably abought the size of atleast 2-3 more head’s taller than a terminator.
@@mibromibro2779 It was never stated that he uses a modified terminator made of Dreadnought part, it's fan lore made from a statement about his Tactical Dreadnought Armor which is just the complete name of every Terminator armor in existence. The excerpt that I posted, from one of the only books in the entire Black Library starring Tyberos explicitly says that he is just a head taller than his terminator guards, he is not that big
What about the theory that Asterion Moloc is actually Arik Taranis an OG Thunder Warrior perpetual. That would explain the custodes uneasiness and him being baseline substantially stronger than regular astartes. Solid vid!l Roided out overeem lol
Oh I like that theory.
@@rednoggy Hell yeah! Checks some spicy lore boxes
I like anything that makes use of the Thunder Warriors.
@@justinweber4977 For sure! They were a cool and very interesting faction, both in their inception and extermination. Would love to read more about their achievements
There was a perpetual Thunder Warrior? First Time i hear about that one, i like the Idea.
this chapter are one of my favourites due to the chapter master but also they are iron warrior loyalist successors
3:51
Tyberos :I take the mantis, you take the lamenters .
Moloc :deal
Great vid. However you forgot to mention arguably the second biggest theory on moloch, the theory that he is Arik Taranis/Babu Dhakal the last and one of if not the strongest thunder warrior in the galaxy. I personally agree with this theory as the gap between a Thuner Warrior and a Custodies is much smaller than the gap between a Astarties and a Custodian. After all, Constantin Valdor (a man who fight PRIMEARCHS) had to put in some effort to beat Ushotan (one of the main leaders of the thunder warriors). So it would logically make sense that the greatest of the thunder warriors could beat even a shell captain of the custodies.
Awesome vid. Great character and chapter, they do need their own book and so do all the major dabaab chapters.
Spear isnt single shot anymore that was changed some time back. So consistent laser shots in the face.
Not sure how feasible it would be but I would love for Asterion to fight against the Tau, however begrudgingly. Just the idea of the Tau going wide-eyed at some "crude spear wielding savage" deploying a better shield than their best battlesuits.
Tau: You still use spears and shields?
Asterion: Anything more would be overkill...well, OVER-Overkill, in your case.
Attempt number 12:
What if the Primarchs where found in the order of their creation. So the Lion was first and Horus was nearly last. I think that could change quite a bit, don't you think?
P:S yeah, I'm definitely doing this till it gets to a 100. Also, sorry I couldn't do last video, I was at work.
JOIN ME MY BROTHERS!!
If the Lion was found that early, than there’s a good chance that the later Primarchs wouldn’t have as much to conquer since the 1st Legion would have steamrolled most of the galaxy.
could be a good setup to expand on Majorkill's Lion Heresy too
Literally was looking up lore for him today. I truly have been blessed by Majorkill 🙏
Moloch could also be one of the few surviving Thunder warriors.
This is my favorite theory. It's the most lore friendly but still ambiguous
Personal fan of the theory that they are at least part an attempt to remake the Thunder Warriors
Asterion Moloc is pure unadulterated awesomeness.
He COULD be a Custodes if he was playing a VERY long game on the other Custodes.
Can Majorkill do a video reviewing Bruva Alfabusa and TTS? And how it’s shaped the worker 40K community and lore?
Anyone noticed majorkill Looks blonde Like Archer when he pretended to be gay?
That thumbnail art is just utter perfection. Kudos to the artist.
Here a fun challenge:
Five best moments of Abaddon in WH40K
The Sharks need more as well, every chapter needs more lore! Lore galore!
Minotaurs - a Space Marine Chapter as the personal attack dogs of the High Lords of Terra.
Well... gotta work it for your Sugar Daddies, right? 💀🍻
Not anymore.
@@MrFallenonenot anymore? What's changed?
@@080izationhigh lords got clapped and bent for Mr. G-ma
@@sircole4549 so minautors now under the direct command of Gman???
New video idea “who was the Emperor been through out history?” Like for instance, I think it’s pretty odvious he was the Assyrian king Haddad as Haddad was said to be a golden figure who stood 15 feet high and bore crossed lightening bolts as his sigil. Haddad was also said to have lived an inordinate amount of years. I think it’s also obvious he was King Arthur. We know that Ole Perrson was one of the argonauts.
Superb video as always @majorkill.
Could you make a video dedicated to the Navigators, the major houses, their politics, relation to the overall Imperium and factions, etc
Majorkill the kinda guy to spend his genie wish on bringing the God Emperor to life just so he can recite 40k lore to him directly.
Imagine if the Minotaurs are based from the uncorrupted geneseed of the World Eaters Legion.
That just breaks my heart all the more, knowing they could've been this cool if Angron didn't ruin them.
They are the attack dogs of Lords of terra with world eaters being previously called warhounds,so that kind of fits.
Aren’t they based on iron warriors, world eaters would be bit boring
Isn't it explicitly stated that the Minotaurs are descended from the Iron Warriors, thus being the reason they're hardy as fuck?
Based off of Iron Warriors, makes sense with the tech upgrades and high grade armor
Can we get a video about Lord Solar Arcadian Leontus?
For the Imperium!
Really hope you talk more about other notable chapter masters
Video ideo: What if Vulcan was found then raised by the Hrud?
I was thinking the other day, what if Vulcan comes back but he's gone a bit Orky due to falling into the reactor and seeing their gods?
I have an idea for a video:
Considering that the ruinous powers selected their four traitor legions and their primarchs, whilst the other ones follow chaos undivided, talk about which chaos god every primarch (both traitor and loyalist) would follow if there wasn’t the undivided option.
(Don’t use any of the alternative history Heresies for comparison, just your opinion based on lore knowledge from the books.)
just imagine Asterion Moloc and the Minotaurs were all Thunder Warriors in disguise
Video ideas: Why Astorath the Grim is an absolute BEAST!
Why Logan Grimnar is an absolute BEAST!
Who Would win
Minotaur or Sharks!
Moloc Vs Tyberos
I Would Love to see you make a video about that!
Hopefully we see him and Tyberos the Red Wake vs Kharn
That would be peak violence content.
Could they take Kharn out though?
I love Tuberos but I don't think anyone stands a chance against Kharn.
As a new Warhammer fan I was heartbroken to find out Moloc and Tyberos don't have official minis. Thank goodness majorkill minis has Shark Daddy. Ordered him and waiting!
My favorite thing about your channel is when you state the numerous theories and one of them comes true.
I could see him being a semi servitorized custodian with no will of his own
Hey majorkill can you do a video on the people who lead the legions before their primarchs where found
Video or stream idea: reading the official and unofficial catalogs of the stuff Trazyn has
How did the Primarchs treated Imperial Army units serving under them?
Varies a lot.
Horus, Roboute, Fulgrim, Sanguinius, Dorn, Vulkan, Leman would be like getting a chance to be led by a war hero.
Corax probably wasn't too big on being a figurehead. Same for the Khan.
No one would even know Alpharius or Omegon was leading them.
The Lion and Ferrus would be very to the point. Do the job and that's it. Not much for interaction.
Magnus would've been either amazing or terrifying depending on how you feel about psykers.
Lorgar oddly enough would've been brilliant given his charisma.
Angron, Konrad, Mortarion, Perturabo would've been an active punishment. As in, you would probably be a Penal Legionaire cause no one else would want to deal with them.
@@randomcenturion7264 I dunno. Since the Night Lords pacified planets with minimal fighting all you have to do when serving with them is secure the conquests and deal with remnants no actual large scale battles to die in.
Im still in the thunder warriors camp when it comes to the minotaurs.
40K lore is so fucking good. Moloch is an old Canaanite god which people used to sacrifice children too. They would throw babies into furnaces shaped like bulls as a ritual. If y’all want to see some crazy shit, Google “moloch Luna park tragedy” and do some reading.
Moloc sounds like a custodes clone dressed up as an astardes chapter master.
Can you make a video on the tyranid that broke off from the hive mind?
I sure do hope my Big E mini arrives on Christmas
Many of the tactic of the Minotaurs also mirror the Thunder Warriors. I think Moloc is part Iron Warrior, part Thunder Warrior. The cybernetics would be applied wherever physical degradation was and the excessive use of psycho indoctrination could also be for mental degradation. He’s bigger than normal Space Marines the way a Thunder Warrior would be, and of the High Lords when the Minotaurs were made, the Captain General of the Custodes was in their ranks. He would have known the Thunder Warriors existence and loyalty even after the purge
I believe that Moloc is a Thunder Warrior who through the his connections to the high lords was able to fix his genes and maybe even has a few of the astartes sacred organs implanted in him to increase his longevity and health.
Thanku mate. Your stuff gets me thru some shit nights. I dont play or paint anymore but i love the lore. THANKU!
ima just say it. your the best 40 k lore channel. honestly you could break into other forms of media and have a lot of success. maybe upload a space marine 2 playthrough when it come out? a lot of new people will hop on the 40k train when that comes out and are gonna want to know the lore.
What about the theory of Moloc been Thunder warrior??? Especially the one from that novel of the Heresy
A video covering the ordinatii of the Centurio Ordinatus would be interesting. They literally have a weapon that would kill everyone in the imperial palace from Mars with the press of a button, the empire has known about it for over 10 millenia, and everyone is just cool with it chilling in a warehouse practically unguarded, and they have the authority to hold and wield it. Stuff far beyond what is on lock down under the dark angels or the custodes. Stuff even beyond anything the necron or leagues of V have ever done. They genuinely have a time weapon that is indefensible against far beyond what the Hrud ever could do over a far larger area at a massive distance. It is potentially stuff that could upend the entire setting, and everyone sleeps on it. It is so bizarre that they are allowed custody and control over the ability to obliterate terra on a whim, and nobody has made a move on that fact for a dozen millenia. One was even used to bypass a C'tan forcefield.
Damn we need more lore on this guy
can you do a video on the space marines that led their legions before they got their primarch
I second this. Ive always been interested in this too. Would be an awesome vid for sure
Pre-Primarch planet lore is great. I’d love to see more lore on them. A whole game or book on ancient Caliban would be epic.
He is a custodian playing the ultimate long game, blood games.
Video idea: vlog a day in the life of a space marine, similar to the space marine spare time video just irl
Space Leonidas and his 1000 Spartans
Lore video on Grand Master Belial of the Dark Angels Deathwing Company sometime I hope
"Too stubborn to die...extensive use of cybernetics...doesn't give a fuck, and doesn't play fair..." And some people doubt they are sons of Perty Turbo.
My Bets still on that Moloc is a near immortal Thunder Warrior hybrid , one of a kind
Lore idea. Explain what and how the high lords rebelled against G Man.
Bidet: actually a really solid choice. Especially if you have routine tummy troubles.
Moloch's momma was one of those new female Custodes and his poppa was one of the lost primarchs(or Alpharion Omegarion) and he was fast tracked to be an Astartes.
Thanquol needs an episode
Y'know you pointing out how Asterion Moloc likes the Minotaurs fighting other Space Marine chapter made me think of how the Cretan Minotaur (i.e. the OG Minotaur AKA Asterion) was a cannibal, so maybe this is just a roundabout reference.
Or I could be smoking something, IDK
I like the theory he is one of the lost primarchs soul put into a normal marine as pennance for past sins.
Loved the Uberreem reference! Would love to hear about your BJJ journey! Oss!
I kinda want him to be a perpetual that does die but keeps coming back. Maybe with the high lords messing with his mind when they found out to make him as loyal to them as custodies are to the emperor
Random Heretic: _"You're a bunch of uncultured savages!"_
Asterion Moloch: *_"“Haven’t You Noticed? We’ve Been Sharing Our Culture With You All Morning.”"_*
Now the real question, who would win in a fight with all their gear, Tyberos the Red wake or Asterion Moloc
Molec's guardian spear is for your pain because it is his pleasure.
Lamenters: *exist*
Minotaurs: "Time to put them in their place in the Pecking Order!"
I can’t unsee the shoe in the thumbnail
A video of the top ten community made wholesome moments would be great
Can you do a video discussing the primarch’s fighting styles in detail? I believe there are videos in discussion of fights that happened in WH40k that go in depth of them and some of them are primarch fights but even though they do discuss their fighting styles I would like your description of them overall because I find your content quite entertaining
The Minotaurs and the Space Sharks are definitely some of the coolest legions in Warhammer 40k. Would love to see Moloch go up against a Norn Emissary or Swarm lord, or even just aid The Carcharodon's against the Tyranids in a future novel or something like that. Seeing the Minotaurs get called to aid the Dark Angels would also be fascinating. Two legions that use Dark Age technology fighting side-by-side, would be siiiick.
“For when you feel like sucking on something fresh” -MajorKill 2023
What about a video on the top 9 traitor marines from the loyalist legions.
I know it's very stupid but F it. My headcanon is that Asterion Moloc sounds exactly like Frank Horrigan.
"Your rides over, traitor. Time to die."
There's only 3 things a Custodian would hesitate to fight - Primarchs, OTHER Custodians, and T. Warriors.
We know Molach isn't a Custodian or Primarch, due to the Custodians not reconizing him as either.
There will be an “Astarion Moloc” in my WIP deathwatch force
Majorcu*t, you haven't made "Bjorn The Fell Handed is a BEAST" yet!!!
What I wouldn't give for the Lion to tell Moloc to sit down and stfu while he goes to beat the shit out of the high lords.
"A 'roided up Alistair Overreem" is a tautology.
I have not smoked in months, but the fume ad very genuinely made me want a cigarette, and I have never fiended for tobacco once in my life before this moment. Majokill, you have missed your calling.
Thanks for the Big E update!
okay ive had this idea tossing around my head for a little while. how would masterchief do as a space marine aspirant in a scenario where he was born on any of the recruiting planets? which legion would he fit in with the best?
I remember reading a theory that he was an iron circle robot reprogrammed
When the auto subtitles show "minors" instead of minotaurs lmao
"When the High Lords of Terra need to get sh*t done, they call the minors"
Pretty dope list at the beginning of the vid. Just rock these boys. Tyberos is an absolute beast.
Supposedly, he became a Primark all of a sudden
Nothing to do with the video but o thought this was funny, I just got done making an ai generated song sung by Konrad Curze singing about his sob story to Sanguinius and Sang was having none of it, it was unironically hilarious!
Didnt even watch yet but know its a great video based on the topic
Who are the chief librarians of each chapter?
My theory is that moloch is a thunder warrior
Moloc is the Adam Smashur of the 40k universe
Leonidas is still one of the most badass names I’ve ever heard I can’t wait to have a son 😂
