[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome to the Forty K-Lorecast.
[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome to the Forty K. Lorcass with me, John Barsotti and Brad Jester.
[SPEAKER_01]: This guy.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, thirteen episodes in Brad and now we're moving into what we call the free form version of this where we're going to bounce and round a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're now going to do thirteen through saves for the next twenty five years.
[SPEAKER_01]: Please know.
[SPEAKER_02]: What it worked for Brad.
[SPEAKER_01]: It did work for Abidon.
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, no, it didn't.
[SPEAKER_01]: It hasn't succeeded at one of them.
[SPEAKER_02]: He just he did.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now he has kind of a blue, Katie again.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's Katie getting blown up.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's definitely one of the crutches of GW, but
[SPEAKER_01]: On today's episode, we're going to kind of start setting up some future stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: We just don't want to have to do a bunch of spoiler episodes.
[SPEAKER_01]: So today is going to be post horrors, heresy, the scouring, what it's known as.
[SPEAKER_01]: I like to call it revenge.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, a bunch of stuff that we're not a lot of sand.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's because he's heating.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this, this got ugly.
[SPEAKER_01]: So for those of you who don't understand, we're talking about
[SPEAKER_01]: Horace, after he dies, the force of chaos, the trailer legions, that quickly break up in you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they were, let's set back, go back.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's rewind this.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because what happened is, Horace was already having trouble keeping chaos together.
[SPEAKER_02]: Weirdly enough, keeping chaos together.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was hard.
[SPEAKER_02]: So wrangling cats didn't seem to be the best thing, but he was doing it by the power personality.
[SPEAKER_02]: He was the most powerful besides the Emperor personality.
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe besides the Emperor to be honest with you, because that was his jam is just, Horace was a good doctor.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, to be honest, I think people liked Horace more than they liked the Emperor, just the Emperor, they were just more powerful.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, when you were in the Emperor's presence, you felt guilty to him, where is Horace?
[SPEAKER_01]: True.
[SPEAKER_01]: He tricked you into that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, the Emperor's cheer.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the thing is, is that Horace was already having issues because of the more that they fell into the into chaos, and were powered by chaos,
[SPEAKER_02]: Obviously, the more influenced cast has.
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you're looking to get a nice regiment and structured thing going on, powering it through chaos is not the best way.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it was already fracturing.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so when you take away the figurehead, which is literally how all chaos, since then, and forever is led by
[SPEAKER_02]: powerful personalities when you took away that power of personality, something that was already hanging by strings, it didn't just fracture, it exploded.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we already covered it in the during the horse heresy that the Emperor's children had already run off, that just go do Emperor's children stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: Iron warrior is bailed and grown.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, all these guys, even even the death card that they were caught, they were all already fallen apart.
[SPEAKER_01]: Whole race goes and they all fall apart.
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem for Chaos this one is the other side was very singular.
[SPEAKER_02]: They were not.
[SPEAKER_02]: They were also not done.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Chaos said, hey, guys, I'm pretty tired now, I'm about to go home.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were like, we're not done at all.
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't hear no bell.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, and more importantly, Ultramarines just showed up at the end of the party and went.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, indeed you also have which we'll get into our next episode.
[SPEAKER_02]: You have an angry lion with dudes that are already mad and he's been setting shit on fire.
[SPEAKER_02]: if you met chaos in passing on the expressway, the lines like we should probably burn that down.
[SPEAKER_01]: We've got the situation of your right, the white scars, the Ravencrisole and the recovered, the lay angels have lost their primarque.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're all struggling, but you just got full force, all tremorines, full force, dark angels.
[SPEAKER_02]: And actually, full force.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and a good chunk of what's left of its base walls, all just showed up.
[SPEAKER_01]: and they missed the party and decided to make their own.
[SPEAKER_02]: And to be honest, I don't know who's more angry about it, Lehman Ross or the Lion.
[SPEAKER_02]: like both of those guys are bent and they also kind of got tricked by Horace, which is making them even more and more bad to that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, we got duped and I'm on the other side of the galaxy.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna ruin this guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also he's dead.
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we provide him so I could kill him again?
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I'll just murder everyone he knows.
[SPEAKER_01]: And an important piece here is that the last thing the Emperor said before being entombed was you have to destroy chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, let's talk about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: So what I'm saying what he wanted is
[SPEAKER_02]: a free impure.
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, the Emperor while being a terrible English dad has a vision of no chaos taint, a free world that is not infringed by chaos and that's what he's going to and his sons went
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, so should we should go on a genocidal look to take rampage to be to be perfectly fair here.
[SPEAKER_01]: His words were worth it.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what he said.
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, we should remove that the team to chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: We, I don't want chaos around.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's get rid of them.
[SPEAKER_01]: But he said it to warriors who are going to take that one way and when my only of, oh, go kill all the guys who were on chaos on my way, Dad.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they took that literally, and just went, oh, so we should kill all of the chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: And what is chaos?
[SPEAKER_02]: What is chaos?
[SPEAKER_02]: This is also the beginning of the Imperium turning to shit to be perfect.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we're going to do an entire episode and not to dismiss the future on the inquisition and its origins.
[SPEAKER_02]: But they had a very broad definition of who is chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would even say they didn't know who was cast.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would say it was even broad definition.
[SPEAKER_01]: I would argue they didn't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: They were kind of like thinking which trials.
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, if you think you're innocent, if you feel you're.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyone who doesn't make eye contact were shooting.
[SPEAKER_01]: And if they don't like their eye contact, I'm also.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're like, I don't really like, I'm not cool with this color.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I see there.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it was a big deal.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they, they effectively all meet.
[SPEAKER_02]: They meet at Tara.
[SPEAKER_02]: They, you know, do the Thundercats go put the hands in.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they go buck wild and they have a, they have new, great crusade energy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I believe what we should discuss is the situation that they've come in.
[SPEAKER_01]: So again, the Emperor is talking about, and this is really, this is important for shadowing for what ends up happening to the Imperium.
[SPEAKER_01]: Tara just got bombed to oblivion.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're our, it wasn't just terrible.
[SPEAKER_02]: He got to figure that the, the, the Imperium is shredded.
[SPEAKER_02]: You, you don't really know who's casting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Who's not.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also, it's a galaxy literally at war.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's what I'm even thinking.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I'm even talking about outside.
[SPEAKER_01]: And not like at war, like we've declared war and you want me to come get you.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's on fire and burning.
[SPEAKER_01]: The numbers that I was able to find were over three trillion or dead, at least, probably more than that.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I only think, I think they would say three trillion, because I don't think GW knew the number above that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's also three trillion, but they're talking about the fighting forces.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we're civilians are off.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no number.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's very fun.
[SPEAKER_01]: The issue that survivors have is, well, what is, what is chaos?
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, we know the trailer legions.
[SPEAKER_01]: What do we do about Mars?
[SPEAKER_02]: Which is effectively fifty-fifty right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we've got an imperial navy that everyone, every single element that exists within the, within the, within the imperial.
[SPEAKER_01]: is X percent is chaos, and we don't know which ones.
[SPEAKER_01]: You have a world that went dark.
[SPEAKER_01]: That world go dark because it turned the chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: Did that world go dark because chaos attacked it?
[SPEAKER_01]: Did that world go dark because all their astronauts got shot?
[SPEAKER_02]: We don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, one of the biggest things on that is you do have to ask yourself, I think that they almost gave Mars a have pass because of the fact that they went
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, we think that some of you guys might be cares.
[SPEAKER_02]: At a lot of you guys did some sketchy things.
[SPEAKER_02]: but also kind of, hey, we're at the end of World War II.
[SPEAKER_02]: You guys are bad guys, but also I'd like you to run half of this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's just be honest.
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you tell the difference between a mechanic and a dark mechanic?
[SPEAKER_01]: If you look at, because the guy just tells you he's not that bad.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's a deep by actions.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, hey, this guy just cut the guy's arms off and put robotic arms on him.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he's totally dark mechanic.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, he's actually regular ad max.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's Ted.
[SPEAKER_01]: Ted loves him.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like an emperor, Ted too.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the biggest thing is, like I said, they literally treated like World War II scientists.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, well, you were on the wrong side, but now you're on the good side.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also, we really need you guys to make stuff so that we can go get the bad guys quotation marks.
[SPEAKER_01]: Tell more Hall is dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: That guy's gone.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Somebody has to be made an example of.
[SPEAKER_01]: Someone's someone's getting.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure there's some other bad guys.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I know that you guys are all good guys now.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're like, oh, yeah, please just leave us a little.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're definitely good guys.
[SPEAKER_01]: Another problem you have is chaos is now everywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: We went from and seven, eight and seven years.
[SPEAKER_01]: We went from there was no chaos or there was chaos, but no one really knew about chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's popping up all over.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's also there's cults and the thing is is that all there is just, remember the horse did a great job of
[SPEAKER_02]: propaganda misinformation.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is all the Imperium's fault.
[SPEAKER_02]: So you have these cults that took place because guys, your terrible suffering is for sure the Imperium's fault.
[SPEAKER_02]: And your life sucks and we'll get into this because it got stuck here.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But that's all you know.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like, well,
[SPEAKER_02]: Now you did mean to, but you just joined a cultist squad, you know.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now they're the, and I, we covered this on the Elder episode about, you know, the birth of Sloan Ash.
[SPEAKER_01]: Once chaos gods are getting a taste of the depravity that the Elder put forth, they got empowered.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, as we just said here,
[SPEAKER_01]: at least three trillion no way more than that are dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: And they didn't die of old age.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, they died of in ways that feed, nirgot, feed, zinech, feed, slonech, and feed corn.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: So all those gods are more powerful.
[SPEAKER_01]: They've now also been breaching the material from the immaterial in taking over the trade allegiance.
[SPEAKER_01]: So chaos is also just popping up everywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not, the, the, the, the impereant doesn't know this.
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem is as they, but they're going to go out and wage their crusade back.
[SPEAKER_01]: They have no idea.
[SPEAKER_01]: They do a world though pass over.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's totally cool in two years might be pure chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they also kind of, in a dependent religion, and it also depends on what Lori you look into.
[SPEAKER_02]: Some of the legions still kind of thought the cast was just something that their fallen brothers found and utilized.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that was it.
[SPEAKER_02]: They didn't realize that this thing is insidious tendrils everywhere now.
[SPEAKER_02]: You open the Pandora's box and you're not getting it back in.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just everywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, and that's why I like this idea of a world that you look at today to, oh, they're good.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're totally fine answering and move on because you remember we still have to move linear.
[SPEAKER_01]: These guys have to leave to come out of the galaxy and start moving in a straight-ish path away.
[SPEAKER_01]: As you go, you're going to check on a world in the world's totally cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're going to move forward.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to fall the chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't realize it's falling the chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I have to double back and do all this stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: So this what they're about to step into.
[SPEAKER_01]: really does set the stage for the inquisition, sisters, all this stuff that are coming up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because you're getting bit literally bit in the ass because of a world would fall to chaos when your ten systems away and that was the logistics.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, since place all you have is shipping you all your food.
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually it was a hub for all your food now is nirgot.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you have to go back and that's happened multiple times now.
[SPEAKER_02]: And now you don't even have that not only did you not you were you're not even able to recapture it now you eliminated that and now you don't you need another one.
[SPEAKER_02]: So now they kept going well if we were to done this right the first time and you would have just accepted acceptable losses of
[SPEAKER_01]: every one of you so but this is I want to cover this way because one thing I didn't like when I kind of do some research into the scouring as we call this is we refer to scouring as a period of time the scouring has never ended my first time considering that the scouring began when horror is died and we are in the forty first millennia now and it's still going on this is the scouring to be more of a secret though because they still
[SPEAKER_02]: Pretend that chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: People don't know about chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: The average imperium citizen still does not know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, what I'm talking about is that when you look at it from an imperial history standpoint, they refer to it at this period of the scouring in my life.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, this is forever.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're a hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is this is just what we do now.
[SPEAKER_01]: We just we just renamed it a few different times.
[SPEAKER_01]: The reason I've been up is that when we're going to cover today is kind of the earlier part of the scouring person, this doesn't end.
[SPEAKER_01]: The plan was to wipe out chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you played the game, you're aware that they didn't.
[SPEAKER_02]: One of my favorite parts of this is Bobby G comes up with amazing plans and nobody pays attention to them.
[SPEAKER_02]: They all agree, everybody high-fives Bobby G. It says you're right.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a great plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then they go yellow swag.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm not ever.
[SPEAKER_02]: They go, hey, I'm going to make a bunch of twelve inch charges.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's do this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, and that's, so let's go into kind of that exact piece.
[SPEAKER_01]: They all get to Tara.
[SPEAKER_01]: And he said they have their discussion and everyone agrees with the Amperes at White.cast.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's go White.cast.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bobby G. Offers up a plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, he, well, it's not like he gives a plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: He, it's not like he has a manifesto.
[SPEAKER_01]: He was writing the whole.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, this is, this is good job.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got everything.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is how it's going to go.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the perfect way.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is how we stamp out chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: And everyone goes, we hundred percent agree.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then they leave.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he goes, but that wasn't part of the plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: They goes, no one's following this plan.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because they all, especially the Lion and Lehman.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, very strong opinions of what they were going to ask Bobby G's presentation.
[SPEAKER_01]: Five stars.
[SPEAKER_01]: Good job.
[SPEAKER_01]: A hundred percent totally.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it also should do to have made a wildly better impure him because his was a conquer rebuild refocus, basically reeducate the populist and move on.
[SPEAKER_01]: and laying the line in the line basically with, I'm down for vengeance.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I need to go hit somebody now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, what happens if you're hitting them?
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to find someone else to hit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, what happens then?
[SPEAKER_01]: See part one.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, what about that rebuilding effort?
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't, I forgot about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't, someone will do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, I'm pretty sure it's just gonna make more chaos happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, nah, I don't probably work at South Island.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll punch that chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: But by the way, foreshadowing did not, did not, did not, did not, did not.
[SPEAKER_02]: Weirdly enough, if you beat the crap out of somebody and you leave, they're not super cool with that.
[SPEAKER_01]: The other problem though with this is chaos and we're going to get to how fast they did this did have a place to flee that made this whole process effectively impossible, which was the eye of terror exists.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but they all could just go into the eye of terror.
[SPEAKER_02]: They took the most odd roots though.
[SPEAKER_01]: What I'm getting at is that this whole plan of like, I'm going to go hunt them down and kill them all.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, well, then you're going to have to go into the place.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's an infinite number of them.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not really going to work.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also the laws of physics don't actually like this doesn't make any sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you're not works.
[SPEAKER_01]: You can't make this happen.
[SPEAKER_01]: In some of them, the works could have wiped out case.
[SPEAKER_01]: I will say that.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm saying that as a work player and that I know I'm right, the orcs could have with through power of belief, just by the app.
[SPEAKER_01]: And he could have just said, I'm going to kill corn and then corn would appear in via a war boss, the war boss would kill corn and corn, stop to exist because the, that's just how that works function.
[SPEAKER_02]: They have no idea why.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no one knows how it happened.
[SPEAKER_02]: But if you have drops, let's talk about some of the things that happen because a couple of allegiance won.
[SPEAKER_02]: Embers, children, have been read kind of at twenty two times before what they did.
[SPEAKER_02]: The after they went to the after they went to gap and rounded up the employees and took them to the eye of tear.
[SPEAKER_02]: But they kind of just went to different places and did raids, start elder style among them.
[SPEAKER_02]: And just kind of made their way and didn't get into a ton of skirmishes.
[SPEAKER_02]: Their legions, fairly intact, comparatively.
[SPEAKER_01]: What I think that that's also because of their slenesh, slenesh is not really slenesh is not an enemy yet, shit from demon players here, but slenesh is not a combat god.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, nesh really seems to only love overwhelming odds in her favor.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a success.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all it's all it's all success.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not this is the opposite of a corn or an orc.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, where they actually are trying to really take on the biggest battle.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm going to show you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Biggest in the bad.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're more than happy to raid the planet of all farmers and just take the farmers back to tortureville and have one in torture.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so they get back to the I tear semi quickly.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, when we say semi quickly, the I tear is again.
[SPEAKER_02]: far away.
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, it's a galaxy.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was in the dead center of the Eldar galaxy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: In the Eldar Empire was so far away from humanity that they didn't think that humanity, even though they were taking literally millions of planets was worth bothering with because it was far away.
[SPEAKER_02]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how far they were away.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they go away.
[SPEAKER_02]: The island warriors make a bunch of weird stands for
[SPEAKER_01]: kind of no reason.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they just, well, it seemed like they just went to build forts, which we've already established to not as good as other.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but the, the, none of their stands make any sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry, but like most of the reason they took made a stand is because someone wanted to write a story about another chapter.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry, but guys, that's just, that is, let's, sorry, I had warriors, but they, they literally just use them as the foil to tell a story about how cool X chapter was in winning a story, a battle against iron warriors who were just stopping at random places.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, hey, we got to stop here.
[SPEAKER_02]: Why?
[SPEAKER_02]: Because we got to lose later to so-and-so chapter.
[SPEAKER_02]: Why?
[SPEAKER_02]: It says here in the script.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where I'm just following the script.
[SPEAKER_01]: What's the script?
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not important.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you're like we're basically WWE wrestlers, but I don't know this.
[SPEAKER_01]: What can what Legion?
[SPEAKER_01]: So which which chaos god or iron warriors attached to?
[SPEAKER_01]: They're not.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're identified at the end of my thinking.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I thought.
[SPEAKER_02]: because they never, he finally, he wasn't even a demon prince for like a forever.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That he's just, they, because again, he just was full of furious anger to go screw your robot on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, so you've got that, you've got the, um, the nightlines, who are pointless in this entire thing in the first place by the way?
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, Conrad Cruz, by the way, read his, Conrad Cruz is incredibly important in the whole Horacee, and he meant the scouring.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, he literally breaks the triumph of the sanguiness, jubabbi, jinn, and all that.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the kid's legion is useless.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's doing nothing.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's a genius slash idiot.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, he just comes up with he because he's crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: He sees the future, but he's also insane.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he does not this crazy shit, but his legion just while they also led.
[SPEAKER_02]: several people on a wild goose chase for a while including dark angels but like he literally just ran around and harassed people and they went you know what we were doing this before let's just do it again so they take the most leisurely way back to the eye of terror
[SPEAKER_02]: and just make life miserable for billions, maybe truly isn't enough people, whether they decide.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's called.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's actually funny because they turned the jukari just like the emperor's children turned.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, a lot of just become the jukari.
[SPEAKER_02]: Where they just became the following.
[SPEAKER_02]: They become that they become, well, but not following a darkens, but the fallen has in the fallen other.
[SPEAKER_02]: They went and falling to chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: They followed the same script that the elder did.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just did it way faster, because humans don't live as long.
[SPEAKER_02]: We need to speed this shit up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's just skip to the back.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, like, skip, let's just turn to the back of the book and just see what the lost guy on the page saw.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's pretty much what humanity did with the fall of the cast.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, let's just move, speed this up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's just go to the last chapter.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we got this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Alpha Legion, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't really discuss too much.
[SPEAKER_01]: But because they're just, they're so.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, oh, my God, you can't.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's actually by more Rhett Cond even the night.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the first primary found, but actually the last primary.
[SPEAKER_02]: acknowledge and we see it's like which which which one which brother is actually the one that died which is the one and people are going to yell at me because this has been kind of already put out now as fully canon but whatever yeah but for people for people who aren't who are newer to the game yeah for them that there are some of these stories they held alpha legion has been all over the map
[SPEAKER_02]: That's when we're kind of like a million times.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's you don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: And one of the biggest things is, did they fall the cast?
[SPEAKER_02]: Did they not fall the cast?
[SPEAKER_02]: Or at least the the brothers.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: How the, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how, how,
[SPEAKER_01]: that no one knows.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: The only the emperor, I think, is aware that there are two of them, even the other.
[SPEAKER_02]: They would keep literally taking each other's place.
[SPEAKER_01]: Even the other primarks didn't realize there were two of them.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they would take turns.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, just to take turns.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, and if Brian I've discussed with in the back and the past, it is humorous.
[SPEAKER_01]: These are seven foot tall.
[SPEAKER_01]: four hundred fifty pound monstrosities, where he's hiding behind a curtain.
[SPEAKER_02]: Who was also, no, out there was apparently on terror for a long time, just like pretending that he was one of one of the other guys, and you're like, hey, man, one of these dudes is like two feet taller than everybody else.
[SPEAKER_01]: For the record, if you've watched the princess bride and seen Andre the Giant, he's bigger than regular people than Andre the Giant most, the everyone in that movie.
[SPEAKER_02]: nothing to see here guys just in line with everybody else what like no one no one noticed that guy he's going to be in remarkably handsome too yeah it's not even those guys are all other worldly handsome like it's when you look at a promicure like whoa what's going on because I made the comment under the giant what a prep he doesn't look like onto a giant this is
[SPEAKER_01]: seven foot tall, Chris Hemsworth.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're actually slightly tall.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me,
[SPEAKER_01]: Alpha Legion does also run back to the Eye of Terror.
[SPEAKER_01]: Mortaring gets their fairly quickly it looks like.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Mertary, remember he got trashed.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he got reborn into the terror.
[SPEAKER_02]: And this has been red kind of multiple times, too.
[SPEAKER_02]: They used to have a D&D style where if you got killed, you had to spend an X amount of years before you could come back.
[SPEAKER_02]: But then that got red kind.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then now in current law, Angron can insta come back if you have enough fighting going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Which I actually like because it's if the power of corn is, you know, if you haven't, he'll just keep bringing back.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he'll just keep coming back.
[SPEAKER_02]: But otherwise, you know, if the fighting's less, he can't come back.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, but like we went back and forth about this a little bit at the time.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're tearing couldn't come back into the real world for X amount of time.
[SPEAKER_01]: He was a timeout.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's fine.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: He was in timeout.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's why they went back.
[SPEAKER_01]: Same with it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And the loyalists just go buck wild.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now that being said, I make sure you should kind of get the.
[SPEAKER_01]: Mortarian has died.
[SPEAKER_01]: More Terry has been sent back on the I of Terry he's been reborn there.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're still were a bunch of deathguard though spread both on the planet throughout the systems who did not tell a port with him back.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they did to me to be fair to be fair.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's talk about the fact that
[SPEAKER_02]: He kind of just had the deathguard that came with him.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Over there because the deathguard that tried to flee Terra didn't do great.
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't get very far.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now they got there in a lot of stories.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know what the stories are?
[SPEAKER_02]: They're not deathguards stories.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: They are space wolf, dark angels.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is an ultra-recent story about the Trader legions during this kind of early part of the scouring.
[SPEAKER_02]: All the stories are, and this is the cool story about character A obliterating deathguards or somebody else.
[SPEAKER_01]: One guy though, who did flee pretty quickly back to theire of terror is a baton.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, he took his ball and went home.
[SPEAKER_02]: But also, he did go buck wild because he grabbed Horace's body.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Took his talent and just went, I'm out.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm out.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the vengeful spirit and it just went later, guys.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: That way.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he was, I do love.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you don't like Abadan, I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we'll continue to say, which is the better pronunciation, but like some heard it both ways in audio books.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's hard.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is spelled Abadon.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just easier to say about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still my favorite is the fact that his name is Abadon the destroyer and his name translates into the destroyer.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he is the destroyer the destroyer.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, but yeah, any kind of confetti pronunciation because we're in America.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to this this fun one pronounced K K A N S S.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, now, it's Kansas, pronounced AR.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, let us say yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: It should be our Kansas, but we've written on to Arkansas.
[SPEAKER_01]: I can fix this thing deal with it, but that's where we are.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, we have a work against use.
[SPEAKER_02]: Screw you, England.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, one of the big things here is, well, let's just go back to what we're saying.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Imperial, we rally.
[SPEAKER_01]: The, we, I say we, I guess, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
[SPEAKER_02]: like the it will weird that when you subscribe to cast in the end you also get tricked by cast and something bad happens to you every time weird yeah you you scroll back to the end of the book again and it's always bad but
[SPEAKER_02]: The thing is, is that this doesn't happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: This wasn't a two day.
[SPEAKER_02]: This isn't a long weekend.
[SPEAKER_02]: What's years ago?
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it was dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: They got it before they got the iron wars all the way.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, they, they were chasing all these people.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you've got psychos like Conrad Cruz, which we just, me thought it was funny.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he was roadrunnering this.
[SPEAKER_02]: He was like a clock twice.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, it's just, this is going on and to be fair, again, things are getting shitty or because, well, remember a shitty time in human history, real human history, call the inquisition.
[SPEAKER_02]: When we used the fear of the populist to give some people power to do some
[SPEAKER_02]: Wow, bad shit.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, sometimes you can get into things and do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then ramp it up for ten thousand years.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's really good.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we got one to talk about.
[SPEAKER_01]: So we discussed earlier, Gilliman sits there and says, Hey, guys, I got a plan.
[SPEAKER_01]: And everyone says, Hey, it's a great plan.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then they don't just do a work.
[SPEAKER_01]: But he.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because, but no, that's a big deal because of the fact that Bobby G. And by the way, he's alive for a long time after this.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't get jacked for a while.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he does get jack for a while and he comes up with legitimately Bobby G is the most boring and the most awesome primary out there.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got a lot of plot armor, but he comes up with a literal
[SPEAKER_02]: This is how we achieve the goal of our father and enlightening period.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is how we take back.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is how we rebuild from the where our lowest point.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's bring us back.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we do none of that.
[SPEAKER_02]: And eventually.
[SPEAKER_01]: He gets hurt and put in stasis.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I want to tell a why we didn't do that.
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is just just my theory.
[SPEAKER_01]: But my theory reading the law is he has this great plan and Lehman, the lion.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, everyone agrees with it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And those were YouTube big ones.
[SPEAKER_01]: Just my power standpoint.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, obviously, saying, Wendy's doesn't run anymore.
[SPEAKER_01]: Talk about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: But which is, who used to be the voice of reason.
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: So Bobby, Jane would give what we will think about what used to happen is Bobby, Jane would give his plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: It would always be a great plan because he's Bobby,
[SPEAKER_02]: everyone else would tell him to go pound sand, saying, Guinness would tell them, we should at least do most of his plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: And everybody else would go, all right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we like you will listen.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the problem he has right now is that Lehman is having none of it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's already gone.
[SPEAKER_01]: We basically thought he's lost his shit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bobby first of the speech and Lehman goes great idea.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's great.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, this went about as well as when he put out the codex to start his.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And when we're gonna break all your legions apart.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he basically sent a picture of his jog.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was like, I'm not doing this.
[SPEAKER_02]: So is this a no guys?
[SPEAKER_01]: But then the lion's the same boat.
[SPEAKER_01]: The lion's equally just gone off planet.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the problem, Bobby.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, the lion goes full van.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to talk about this in the next episode.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the lion goes to the basis of what it is to be a dark angel, which is vengeance.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he'll pure kill.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it was good.
[SPEAKER_01]: I said the problem for Gilman is that he's at this great plan.
[SPEAKER_01]: But all of the people he needs to line up and support it.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're not just not supporting you.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're just gone.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they're also kind of doing the opposite because you remember his plan is to take rebuild, re-educate, move on, and his brothers went cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: Remember that whole day to the take thing where they didn't even do the take thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just burn it down.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I can't take it anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: Why it's not there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it doesn't exist anymore.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what you wanted to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's a huge deal with this is he's trying to do this in to be to be perfectly honest about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: He does pretty well with what he does.
[SPEAKER_02]: His plan works.
[SPEAKER_02]: It is tiny little bubble with the ultramates can do because the ultramarines are currently
[SPEAKER_02]: wildly with the biggest legion.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not even good.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's close.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's there.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's the, there's the ultra Marines.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you jump off a cliff and then the numbers.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I mean, and I'm going to talk about is the, the, the assets, the number of Marines, the number of Imperial Guard, the, the number of ships, the number of world.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, other than the world's all legit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything.
[SPEAKER_01]: Problem that he has though right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we're going to dive in this in a minute, but I understand that Bobby G. has put together pretty intricate plan.
[SPEAKER_01]: about here's how we're going to expand out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Basically, almost redoing the great crusade in a lot of ways.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to work because this work we're going to effectively do it again with some important caveats.
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll get you in a minute.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, to be honest, some of it's trash.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sorry, Bobby G. But like his overall plan is actually just better than the original crusade.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is.
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem is it's informed.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's trying to is that he's net it has he expands out and gets there.
[SPEAKER_01]: the dark angels and the space wolves got their first and just lit the planet or the system on fire and are gone.
[SPEAKER_01]: So he's coming in and people are looking around going like, hey, what the hell just came through here.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, sorry about that.
[SPEAKER_01]: By the way, you're still part of the Imperium team.
[SPEAKER_01]: Can you go back to making up gaps?
[SPEAKER_02]: You should probably trust me.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like, a guy just murdered everyone.
[SPEAKER_01]: I know who looked an awful lot like you and your legion just killed everyone here.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, everyone I've ever met except for that guy is dead.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, man.
[SPEAKER_01]: It also makes it really hard for any of you who work in any sort of job that requires logistics is imagine if half the ships you're relying on have led you just got blown up in a day.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, you don't imagine you're, you're, you're at Ford and you're like, hey, we got to make X amount of cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: This dude says we have to complete this many cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, man.
[SPEAKER_02]: three quarters of the workforce got killed yesterday.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: They said they still need that many cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, man, like we can't do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not saying that they're late.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm saying everyone died.
[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have an option.
[SPEAKER_01]: Be here.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the whole, this is to say come next and we're going to step into here.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is the Bobby G tried to fix this.
[SPEAKER_01]: I really do believe he did.
[SPEAKER_01]: He tried to fix this and he might have, but he, but everyone saw blood.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so the issue you have is an emulsing blood.
[SPEAKER_01]: led to a very natural next step in my, which is the Inquisition.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the Inquisition was awful, but, and it's sorry, Malkador, you did a bunch of cool stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: He originally, it was supposed to be, there was never supposed to be good, be honest with you, because he kind of created the KGB original.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he effectively created thought police because he was trying to root out chaos wherever it is.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it became a widespread, eventually galaxy spread movement and gigantic arm of the Imperium.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's own arm.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was no longer the secret police.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was the wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a gargantuan branch of
[SPEAKER_02]: We smell corruption everywhere.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you got people that we were looking at this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we're going to, we're going to upset on the inquisition, but for everyone kind of can follow along what's going on is we've got a problem that no one really knows who the bad guys are as Brad has said, and I've said numerous times.
[SPEAKER_01]: The regular member of the Imperium doesn't know that chaos exists.
[SPEAKER_01]: What they kind of understand has happened is there's been the bunch of pretty large-scale revolutions happening all over the place.
[SPEAKER_01]: We have to do something about it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Behind the scenes, the people in charge are very well aware of what's really going on, which is an infection.
[SPEAKER_01]: then they have to get soldiers, just to listen to the conversation with the secret.
[SPEAKER_01]: The inquisition is formed by Malkador to hunt out chaos, which no one can know exists.
[SPEAKER_01]: But in order to hunt out chaos, they have to get citizenry to go and hunt out chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: But they can't tell them the chaos exists.
[SPEAKER_01]: So that level of disconnect basically translates to, hey, person X, you are in charge of hunting down problematic civilians.
[SPEAKER_01]: what's a problem actually look like.
[SPEAKER_02]: Whatever I tell you that out and also you you can edit this out later, but the lords of terror since the beginning.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: have been a tornado of dicks.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, the lords of terror are probably one of the biggest problems around you here because they are.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they they weapon they they use it to basically go, hey, you don't agree with me.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're probably can't let's just send some guys to kill everybody to support you.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's exactly what's happening with the whole scouring.
[SPEAKER_01]: The scouring period should have been fairly short.
[SPEAKER_01]: It should have been, they go out.
[SPEAKER_01]: The world that had aligned with Horace were eliminated.
[SPEAKER_01]: The world that weren't that weren't with Horace were reinforced.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how it should have gone.
[SPEAKER_01]: But instead it became
[SPEAKER_01]: really the revenge is a better way of looking and people were just looking to not only get back in the case of like the space wolves and the dark angels they were trying to what to go kill off everyone who caused the many problems but behind the scenes you also people who used this period for self
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just give it, they, they, they consolidated their own power.
[SPEAKER_02]: And anyone that went against them, they went, well, that obviously is a heretic.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they would just have, all, they didn't just have them killed.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just had all of the, they're, I mean, it's way worse than that because they would go, hey, this system supports you.
[SPEAKER_02]: This system's obviously a radical.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you would have inquisitorial forces show up.
[SPEAKER_02]: And when I say inquisitorial forces show up, it's not like three dudes with their comrades.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they took an imperial navy fleet with them and blew the planet up.
[SPEAKER_02]: And all of a sudden, you don't have any supporters.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you're like, I'm probably going to win the election.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought I was going to win by, I was going to lose by four billion votes.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I just blew those up.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: I blew up six billion votes.
[SPEAKER_01]: Problem solved.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it looks like the polls have me winning.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the one good thing that my my opinion and space will players will disagree with me on this one that comes out.
[SPEAKER_02]: It is very so much right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it is because I can read the screen.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Brad can see the notes for me.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're talking about this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Gilman does at this point though pull off the second founding of the space.
[SPEAKER_01]: I actually like this and the reason I like this is when you look at the problem that happened with the horse heresy the biggest issue with the legions were too big and they could be they were too easily corrupted so what Gilman decides is the best way to do this is we're gonna split these these legions down to smaller fighting forces and you'll still be under the great
[SPEAKER_02]: I get it, but he makes it so it's, G-Man made a bunch of great decisions.
[SPEAKER_02]: He had a great plan.
[SPEAKER_02]: This part of the plan, I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it sucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because he became, and he's always become, always been, not become.
[SPEAKER_02]: The king of bureaucracy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he had it so much bureaucracy.
[SPEAKER_02]: He had it later upon late.
[SPEAKER_02]: Literally, you can't get things done in the Imperium because it is, there's words that have been just destroyed accidentally because of the fact that a form said with the wrong place.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they said that they might be chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, wasn't this file, this form filed?
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, looks like eight thousand years ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, they might still be there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Just blow it up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like you're like, dude, we've been literally making stuff for you.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the thing is he breaks the cat.
[SPEAKER_02]: He brings the he says.
[SPEAKER_02]: No one person can be in charge of this much power.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he tells them to break up the legions, which becomes the second founding, which brings the space rings up into chapters.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's a literally that for those of you who play the game currently, who are new to the game, that's is how the game is played.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how you have the thought of unless you play certain versions.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, which is
[SPEAKER_02]: to you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Russ was a real down with this idea.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And this was, we should, before we dive into, we should point out, this was optional.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the
[SPEAKER_02]: They are an entire, the endless armada.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's begin that.
[SPEAKER_01]: So before the second founding.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we'll use the line because if you guys haven't figured out our next episode, it's going to be dark angels.
[SPEAKER_01]: So let's start covering this now.
[SPEAKER_01]: At this stage, the lion is not just in charge of the space brings with which he shares genetic code with effectively.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's also in charge of every member of logistics that puts the armor on them, the navy that moves them from planet to planet.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's in charge of
[SPEAKER_02]: He has multiple sectors or segments, under his control, and they are all his.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're talking only his.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, exactly.
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you want access to it, you have to get permission from him.
[SPEAKER_01]: That is holy crap.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that a lot of people?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's going to charge of a system.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're not talking like, hey, you're in charge of earth, Mars, Venus, whatnot.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, he's in charge of everything within light years of earth.
[SPEAKER_01]: Kind of thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: And they all are that way.
[SPEAKER_01]: And during the horrors, heresy, the reason is matters that during the horrors, heresy.
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, we can debate this lately, right about it very, very well, but as we'll use Emperors children, fall to chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: They mean it's all the systems, every ship, every single thing, under, under the Emperors children are now on chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: which they had civil wars in that book.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, they didn't actually work that way, but Gilman.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it did for like Horace.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, for Horace.
[SPEAKER_02]: But Gilman doesn't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Horace didn't also show up with wild wings and tentacles, so it does help not being a giant purple snake.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's tough to negotiate.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, I think you might be the bad guy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, fuck the bad guy right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: What are you talking about?
[SPEAKER_01]: My four arms and I still got great hair.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's true.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a real thing in the model and in all the, all the artwork.
[SPEAKER_02]: He has literally a snake debid with four arbs and wigs and amazing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Beautiful hair.
[SPEAKER_01]: Just so much like like the romance romance novel.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's Fabio.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's fantastic.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, figure it out.
[SPEAKER_01]: What it does.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the issue is that so Gilman I think rightly says, hey, um, no, like we're going to let you be in charge of.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, it's a huge hypocrite on this though, because he does break it up and he makes a bunch of secondary chapters.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're all directly under his command.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he brings up the ultramarades and they're all.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's he's Captain Burek.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I suppose.
[SPEAKER_02]: Look man, uh, you guys should break your chat.
[SPEAKER_02]: Look, I've broken my chapter up.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, yeah, you gave them like stickers with new names.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still the same guys.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're the same guys.
[SPEAKER_01]: No report to you, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but they could choose not to.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but they all do.
[SPEAKER_02]: Could they choose the most loyal people?
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not important.
[SPEAKER_02]: They have the same color like nothing changed.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the reason I do want to cover this over everybody and following is, this is when you play, I want to cover this change because when you play Forty-K, this is a big piece where you have, hey, what are all these chapters that were part of?
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't actually play that much.
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to accept for the Dark Angels.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's probably the only one writing the chapters do matter because you do wrong or even guard or wrong or even when you do wrong death.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they're not though.
[SPEAKER_02]: Those are part of it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but they actually, they're not the second pounding.
[SPEAKER_01]: That breakup, they did follow.
[SPEAKER_01]: Kind of, but they just stay together.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, versus though, I actually don't.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you have like the Emperor's spirit.
[SPEAKER_02]: You have all the successor chapters, which are, here's the Ultramarines, but here's the chapter with the chapter master.
[SPEAKER_02]: Go do your thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's what was already happening anyways.
[SPEAKER_02]: They already, that's my problem in the fact that they just, everybody did gave you face to this and just went, yeah, Gilman said do this thing and they all figure, well, how can I do the thing he's asking me to do, but actually not change anything.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what, that's, that's what you know, which is pretty common.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you had some sister chapters that are way cooler.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, like Black Templars came from Piero Fiss, which is my least favorite chapter.
[SPEAKER_01]: And Black Templars are a lot cooler.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're awesome.
[SPEAKER_01]: Suns of the do's are really cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: I do like Suns of the do is follow our hands.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's get our bad ass.
[SPEAKER_01]: Those are, those ones are really cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, blood age, those are cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyways, but also flesh tears are probably cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: Great cooler.
[SPEAKER_01]: A flesh nurse, first flesh nurse are way cooler.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the thing is, is that this is how successful chapters became and existed.
[SPEAKER_02]: But we're skipping ahead here, but Bobby G eventually gets sorry, phlegms, lashes and things happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: And shit goes down.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we're in a, the Imperium's functioning, but it's not the same time, I guess.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're just sending it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's get, because I mean, as I said before, we started this episode, I didn't want you all thinking that we're going to cover the scouring, because again, the scouring is ten thousand years and running.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what we're going to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: To be honest, it's eleven thousand.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're the eleven thousand years and running right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's where we're at on the scouring.
[SPEAKER_01]: But this early part of this kind of jewelry covering really is going to set up almost everything else that's coming in the future.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because it was this idea, but I do like government a lot.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm coming in to the standard of government.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're sitting there and this entire thing that you just helped rebuild.
[SPEAKER_01]: You were part of the great crusade.
[SPEAKER_01]: You've brought all the worlds back into it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything was on the up and up.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now it's on fire.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's out of terrible fire.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what do we do?
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we've got a great idea.
[SPEAKER_01]: What if we eliminate the chaos, we rebuild, we do mean they call these changes, yaddi, yaddi, yada, none of that really worked.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it also becomes a bastardized, exact opposite of the version that you're fighting for because it was supposed to be this freedom of thought.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, obviously, we won't talk about how they treated Zenos.
[SPEAKER_02]: But for if you were human,
[SPEAKER_02]: You had lots of, you were supposed to have these freedoms to do what you wanted to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: Be who you wanted to be, serve the empire, but go as high as you could.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's equal opportunity for all.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the Imperia became this living hell for eighty percent of the inhabitants.
[SPEAKER_00]: will be right back after a quick break.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's important here to talk about really what's what is happening now for the imperial.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it is effectively now at its weakest point, I think, since the dark ages, I know.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no functioning government.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no functioning government.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because the Lord said that we mentioned Lord's a therapy minutes ago, and I want to dig in.
[SPEAKER_01]: The lords of terror were largely figurehead.
[SPEAKER_01]: The emperor handed over the reigns to them, but the end of the day the emperor was still there, and they would all... Well, no, well they had power, but the problem was is that they actually did have power.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to contrast this.
[SPEAKER_02]: The lords of terror had great power, but they were always held in check by the fact that the emperor
[SPEAKER_02]: his he didn't veto shitty when oh, I'll just cut that guy's head off.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and you can't stop.
[SPEAKER_01]: He started the Darth Vader Star Wars episode four.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, I'll just choke this guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Look, he's like, hey, man, you did some nonsense.
[SPEAKER_02]: You went a little too far.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you went a little too far, I'll just replace you.
[SPEAKER_02]: And when I replace you, it means I'm cutting you in half.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you don't exist anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then, oh, I forgot to mention that I also were ruining you, uh, psychically soul.
[SPEAKER_02]: I will murder your soul when I get you.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's not a great bath.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not a great death.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, but now those guys have unmade.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they no longer have anybody.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no, there's no checks and balances without the door.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they just have so I have unlimited power, unchecked and limited power.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I can do.
[SPEAKER_02]: horrible things.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And no one can stop me because I also have which the inquisition again, what a trash fire.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry guys, but the you can like inquisitors and inquisitors, chaplains.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'm just saying everything awful stem from them.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we have people that are utilizing this power to solidify power.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're using the Inquisitions power to be their own personal hitman.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we're talking like again, it wasn't a joke.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's multiple stories of Tara Highlord's going, oh, John's getting too much power as my rival.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll just murder all the planets that follow John.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: not cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I think one thing I want to point out is these guys went from you right.
[SPEAKER_01]: The number of figure heads that they were they had they were of checked power.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're then granted on mitigated power.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the problem is that they're getting ready.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm mitigated power at a time where half of the imperium is dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're, and, and it's ain't on a downward swing.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so if you've ever, man, it's my, it's my, it's over.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you got there.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you ever had a boss, who was taking, who, if you're work for, who's in charge of a trash fire, that boss is usually a dick.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's also the thing is, is that we're saying that the Imperium since it's lowest point, but it's still,
[SPEAKER_02]: wildly powerful.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, only it's not weak.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's, but it's flailing is how I would just write.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm saying here at a down thing, but you're still working for Microsoft.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're, they're, they are.
[SPEAKER_01]: I look at the loads of terror and I see people who work great.
[SPEAKER_02]: The thing you've always wanted, which is all this power you get, but they're awful, but you get a single lord of terror, something that you somebody correct me on this, give me a story where a lord of terror wasn't the worst.
[SPEAKER_02]: just the worst.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're by rule.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the fact.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I feel like every story, every Lord of Terra has been a trash fire.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I guess technically, Trash is now a Lord of Terra.
[SPEAKER_01]: Fine.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
[SPEAKER_01]: That that is one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: But he's not, but he also murdered all the rest of the world.
[SPEAKER_01]: The next big problem that they are having though, and this is more for the Imperium is Xenos.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the whole time their wages were what and we're going to get into this next episode pretty hard is that the Emperor, during all this stuff with the great crusade and the Han almost a shadow crusade he was doing, where he was killing Zenos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Whoa, whoa, whoa, John.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like you said kills.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like kill is mad that you use that word because the word you meant to say was horrifically genocidal, Xenos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Xenos, Worf, Worf.
[SPEAKER_02]: Kill would be you and I duel that dawn.
[SPEAKER_02]: What was happening was I didn't like the planet you live on.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I removed.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, no, I killed a made sure everyone was dead and sometimes they went back to make sure everyone was dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so you have is that because of that, and two of the things, you know, we're going to discuss here are orcs and jukari, which is the worst ones that will jukari orcs are more of a problem, because orcs are actually looking for fights, looking for ways were a problem.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I mean, jukari weren't a problem.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now are about to become
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, the jacari are a big problem, but jacari aren't a problem to be perfectly honest with you.
[SPEAKER_02]: They don't feel like a problem from Marines because Marines get into scraps here and there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But like the jacari just leave and then you leave and then the target by go back and go, hey, man, remember where there wasn't any Marines to protect you?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, none of you guys can do anything to stop me.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, I literally work it again at the gap.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, not me more.
[SPEAKER_02]: You work at the me doing terrible shit that you plan to.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm about to introduce you the calculus, Kevin.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not going to love it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Stuff's going to happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to be real, but you're going to really wish you fought me to the death.
[SPEAKER_01]: That was all promised that the period now is you've got their entire fighting force, bunch of them are dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: The ones who aren't dead are trying to hunt down the ones who are on the other side who aren't dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: effectively, also ignoring the police.
[SPEAKER_01]: You've had systems that you used to have because the way it worked before this, if we go back to pre-horus heresy, there would be a garrison, a fact of every single planet, and that doesn't matter how space means, but they could get space marries to the planet.
[SPEAKER_02]: Kind of a bit of a moment's notice on us, so you had enough guys, or unless it was a giant invasion, a, you know, a gasko style and you know, if it wasn't just a gigantic invasion, you would put up a fight long enough where someone would show up.
[SPEAKER_02]: and wreck whoever's messing with.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was going to say, I thought, you're currently, but that's, that was always Drew Carrey's problem.
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you carry with pop out of a web way?
[SPEAKER_01]: They come in real hard on the raiders and the venom's.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to hit you.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're in grad people, but they didn't have a lot of time because once they they showed up, the phone call went out and the space Marines came down to space Marines.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, they were doing the movie, he's instead of a bank.
[SPEAKER_02]: We got two minutes for the people show up.
[SPEAKER_02]: go go.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now all of a sudden they go and do those same reads because they don't know what's going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: It also nothing happens.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, your guys show up and they're like, we got to go go go.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then they try to leave and they go, hey man, no one can.
[SPEAKER_01]: No one's shooting back at us should be.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's give it a couple of minutes to the public.
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's just hang out for a little bit.
[SPEAKER_01]: And now that it's kind of sitting around like next to the web way and just going, do we just do a second rate?
[SPEAKER_02]: Can we just go murder more people?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I guess like I got nothing on my calendar.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like going that another month into the raid and then just
[SPEAKER_01]: The angel curry, I said, let's get bored and go.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, let's try another one.
[SPEAKER_01]: But this begins to open up.
[SPEAKER_01]: So if we talk about the loads of terror, this is the problem they're having.
[SPEAKER_01]: These types of raids are having.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we're using Orcs and Drew Curry because they're the ones who exist in forty one.
[SPEAKER_01]: K, but they're in a forty.
[SPEAKER_01]: K, but it's forty one.
[SPEAKER_01]: There are a ton of other Zenos all over this, who are in a small system.
[SPEAKER_01]: And also who are doing?
[SPEAKER_01]: Weirdly enough, we were some of that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and they're doing so now you've got
[SPEAKER_01]: worlds are burning from invasion and Eldar are also starting to come back in the picture now too.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not just true curry, but you also do have Eldar who are now kind of, you know, the craft world.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, the craft ones are like doing Eldar stuff, which means that they're looking into the future and going, if we prune this branch, and sometimes you live on that branch.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they go, yeah, but you're eventually going to be chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're just going to kill you now and you're like, but I'm not chaos now you're like, yeah, but I'm like a hundred years you'll be you're like, I will live on.
[SPEAKER_01]: And you're a fifty.
[SPEAKER_02]: This time.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sorry, man, but we're going to have to kill you now because, you know, you're great grandchild is going to be chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't feel great about this.
[SPEAKER_01]: But there's no, the issue is that because of the scouring is going on and all the problems, there's no defense for this, which of course leaves invariably to the next big problem, which was rebellion, which also because as you, if you're sitting there if you're part of the Imperium and you're getting this note, hey, you got to produce this tie to the Lord of the Terror.
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to do all this stuff to then pay them all these pieces.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, great.
[SPEAKER_01]: But in return, you're going to give me like protection, all that stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're getting nothing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, totally.
[SPEAKER_02]: But also the the worlds that are worse are the ones that could have been chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Allegion went by and again killed what two thirds the population on average.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then left and went.
[SPEAKER_02]: Go back to doing what you're supposed to be doing.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, hey, man, I get a lot of the animosity towards this.
[SPEAKER_02]: How about you go screw yourself?
[SPEAKER_02]: And then a guy goes, hey, man, I've got a way to get back at them.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you're like, yeah, I'm down with whatever you say.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a terrible idea, but also I'm super angry because you know, like, everyone I know doesn't, is it on a live right now?
[SPEAKER_01]: World's correctly said, hey, man, screw the Imperium.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm out.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now you've got,
[SPEAKER_01]: Worlds because you mentioned them falling to chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm saying the ones who didn't even fall to chaos.
[SPEAKER_01]: The ones who just were like, yeah, weren't independent body now.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, like now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, yeah, but what are you going to do about it?
[SPEAKER_01]: You're the space Marines.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're busy.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're spending your period of Navy.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're busy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Who are you going to send to come tell me?
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling them I feel like we're going to do.
[SPEAKER_01]: Nobody.
[SPEAKER_01]: Cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: Then I go do what I want to do.
[SPEAKER_01]: effectively, because what we'll get into kind of in later episodes is that these worlds, so half of, when we talk about the horse heresy and about half the world's leaving and Gilman's plan of rebuilding, you need a lot of logistics, you need food, you need steel, that's still serimite, you need all these pieces.
[SPEAKER_01]: So a world that would say, hey, you have to produce a thousand bushels of, hey, I'm using a very incorrect term here.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you're going to them and saying, hey, I know you're doing a thousand bushels of hay, and I know a bunch of you were dead, but we get fifteen hundred or two thousand bushels of hay now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also with one third of the workforce.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, one of their workforce, you need to today.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're just saying, and also we'll kill the rest of you if you don't.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and what happens if I don't, but okay, but while I'm doing this, I'm getting rated by like all these different forces.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, we need to fight them off what yourself too.
[SPEAKER_01]: And eventually, when screw this, I'm not sending you crap.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I can actually hire some guys to protect me if I give all of my stuff to them instead.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I stop dying to am ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also they've been meeting some of the others, you know, which aren't just the psychos, you know, which are just like.
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, you guys want to hang out with us?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we'll just, you know, we can also the elder.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going quite a bit of that to be perfect now.
[SPEAKER_02]: With you, elder started trading with the impairment this point in time because of the fact that multiple planets, that just planets systems were like, yeah, man, like, there's not big giant power soldier guys to immediately kill you if you are Zenos and no one's protecting me and you guys said you would trade with me.
[SPEAKER_02]: Cool, like I would like to not die this is the origin the road trader kind of yeah, let's say there's the origin of road trader which is it's before and after this the origin Yeah, obviously had we know this is the mass road trader because you get the people that just betrayed with anybody but the the ability to trade with people was once we stopped having
[SPEAKER_02]: coordinated murder all Zenos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's when you were able to trade.
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess we had it during like the pre crusade obviously.
[SPEAKER_02]: Pre crusade existed.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what that's why I was saying the road trader existed, but then it kind of didn't.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then after the horse heresy, they kind of just came back and went, okay, no one's going to kill us.
[SPEAKER_01]: Cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: And if someone came to you and you're treating with, with, with, will use the elder.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trading with the elder.
[SPEAKER_01]: In my trade is I help give them supply his kind of stuff and they keep eliminating all my enemies.
[SPEAKER_01]: And you come to me and say, you can't trade with them.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I say to you, will you limit my enemies?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I'm not.
[SPEAKER_01]: Screw you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Rebellion.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm gonna, I'm gonna bail.
[SPEAKER_01]: The last one though that I do think we should touch on here before we kind of bail out of this is fear.
[SPEAKER_01]: And this goes what we've been discussing throughout a lot of this.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is as a citizen of the Imperium.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is one of the most fearful times to be alive in thousands of years.
[SPEAKER_02]: Which is how the inquisition actually happens, though, because people, I mean, this goes to humans right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone's afraid of the unknown.
[SPEAKER_02]: You don't know if there's going to be another big war.
[SPEAKER_02]: You were isolated from information for somewhere between five and ten, fifteen, some of these more.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, years, the whole thing was semi-longer for some people.
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, we also have warp time, you know what I mean?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so, but the big thing is it's like, you may or may not have been conquered, you may have not have been isolated.
[SPEAKER_02]: You don't know what's going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: All you know is that
[SPEAKER_02]: Terrible shit might happen to you tomorrow.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what you should do?
[SPEAKER_02]: Let whoever it is make that stuff not happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: Does it make my life suck?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, but we're gonna weed out those people that would do bad things to you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Aren't you doing bad things to me?
[SPEAKER_02]: They'll talk about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's important.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's unimportant.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's unimportant.
[SPEAKER_02]: You let us take care of the things.
[SPEAKER_01]: The note I left here is who can you trust?
[SPEAKER_01]: And that became I think the overarching story of the entire Imperium is who can you trust?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, and the thing is, I want to go on to one of the notes that John has and this is why I kind of went and branch on this is
[SPEAKER_02]: The Emperor is dead, but the Emperor is not dead.
[SPEAKER_01]: The Emperor tried to put it in quotation marks.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no, but this is where it becomes terrible because the Emperor becomes literally the thing that he was fighting against.
[SPEAKER_02]: because the emperor died and effectively for the populist, which is what the inquisition says, the emperor died but was ascended to better the emperor
[SPEAKER_02]: is a god now.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Emperor is defeating chaos personally, which now he kind of is, but at the time, the time, the Emperor is just holding it bay, the problem, sorry, the Magnus, you didn't do anything wrong, but you did ruin a lot of things.
[SPEAKER_02]: The Emperor is pretty busy.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's a, he's a carcass on a throne and he's got some shit.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got to take care of.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's also fragmented with his psyche and he's everywhere.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You like, hey, man, you have to make sure the cast doesn't destroy the entire galaxy.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also you're going to take care of what twenty two thousand other things.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also your personality got shattered into a billion shards.
[SPEAKER_02]: Can you take care of all that tomorrow?
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's the thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: So as a citizenry, what do you do?
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you do?
[SPEAKER_01]: And now into the inquisitive, it's worshiped out.
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're telling you that, you know, to turn on, to turn on each other.
[SPEAKER_01]: And you've got this.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's because I'm being, well, I was going to be set on all sides.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got Zino's attacking me.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got rebellions attacking me.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got space Marines.
[SPEAKER_01]: Are they a space Marine ship?
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, think of it this way.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like if you're, if a space Marine ship appears or a fleet appears in orbit.
[SPEAKER_02]: You don't know whether you're getting killed or whether you're getting saved.
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the thing is, is that that's why the inquisition now becomes the shining light, because they said, the Emperor protects the Emperor saves.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's all you need to have.
[SPEAKER_02]: You need to take everything you had to think about and condense that into the Emperor saves.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, and or just the Emperor?
[SPEAKER_02]: blank.
[SPEAKER_02]: And just move all with your love.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I'll do all you're thinking for you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't worry about this.
[SPEAKER_02]: We got I got this because people are afraid.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were right to be demons exist man.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the thing as a world any moment your world can completely collapse die picture term.
[SPEAKER_02]: You, like the Boogie Man's a real person.
[SPEAKER_02]: He lives like three streets now.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's not like a thing you tell the kids.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I saw him yesterday driving down the street.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he's a real thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: From a lower standpoint, the reason this matters is that this is, we're talking ten thousand years before the current state of Forty K. And I think anyone listening to this can follow along of, oh, it's been this way for a while.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, it gets worse.
[SPEAKER_02]: It started bad and got worse.
[SPEAKER_01]: What this leads a rise to is a term called the Imperial Truth.
[SPEAKER_02]: Which is where I can already win.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, which is literally you and this is I mean Stalin asked I mean it's I mean it's If you want to go real things you have to swear a legency to the state in a Comical way but like it's it is you have to be all encompassing in the third problem is is this becomes it doesn't become the norm right away, but it becomes the like
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just how it works.
[SPEAKER_01]: This whole face is setting the stage for what is modern forty k of, you know, everything is about the emperor, you worship the worship that the god emperor, all these things, because as a member of the imperium, I have three choices.
[SPEAKER_01]: Choice one is to rebel and be an independent body.
[SPEAKER_01]: Choice two is to join chaos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, every herding.
[SPEAKER_01]: And choice three is to declare, feel tea to the imperium and hope that they put it.
[SPEAKER_02]: But they only
[SPEAKER_02]: What the thing is is that you're you're you're down selling out because declaring field he isn't just Hey man, I'm on your side right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm a friend of I'm a big fan of living in the United States You know what I did not have to do declare my body and soul to the United States and also sign something that says if I ever go against
[SPEAKER_02]: the wishes of the US.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm totally okay with being tortured and killed instantly.
[SPEAKER_02]: And every imperial citizen knows now that, well, in the modern world of Forty-K, that's just how it is, man.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is, and for those of you who do it, this is where it started.
[SPEAKER_01]: This was it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it came out of fear.
[SPEAKER_01]: It came out of this piece of, because I was, you want to live and you would basically ask yourself, which are the three things, which are these three options would make me live.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, falling to chaos, you technically do die, but chaos isn't going to tell you that.
[SPEAKER_01]: The rebellion ones seems like a, if you're in a system, that's got a lot of old tech and weaponry, maybe it works.
[SPEAKER_01]: Also, you may not have the contact for a long time.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you might, or you might just be close to an elder craft world.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a, that they can trade with, which is fairly significant.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that would actually help a lot.
[SPEAKER_01]: Those are kind of yours, but otherwise, if you're just kind of on the northern fringe, man, and also for those of you who don't realize the neck runs haven't come back yet, and the tear and it's haven't hit the galaxy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep, and there's a lot.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also you might have, and for a lot of these citizens this time, there's a good chance you saw a marine fairly recently, and seeing a marine will make you shit your pants.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, if you're just some, if you're a Brad Chester, and I go, oh, cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: Dante just showed up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, man, I'm doing whatever that dude said because I'm real terrified of that thing that just rolled by he is a significantly tougher than anybody I've ever met and this is where the the period becomes the modern where everything
[SPEAKER_01]: shifts over to war.
[SPEAKER_01]: Effective.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a war.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a war.
[SPEAKER_02]: It
[SPEAKER_02]: The appearing could exist, not as a war machine.
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that's the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: This is what we talked about in the other episode.
[SPEAKER_01]: When you hear about the scouring, you're online, you look it up.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's referred to as a period of time.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I just, you read the more you read about it and you pull the code access and you read the novels.
[SPEAKER_01]: It never ended.
[SPEAKER_02]: It just, there was a beginning to it, which just becomes what the appearing is, which the imperative is is a wartime economy.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's the only way it works though is because of that fact.
[SPEAKER_01]: So with that, I think we'll break this episode and we're going to get ready for our next one.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what Brad and I have had a lot of discussions and but what we should cover next and we agreed that I think the next big thing we're going to jump into because we did the work coverage, which was great.
[SPEAKER_01]: We loved it.
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to go back to new imperium.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we want to start with a very interesting faction, which is the darkest.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's about to get a codex.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're about to get a codex or you're listening this, you know, later on, they already got a codex, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: Who knows, it's coming out, maybe.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the next is always either.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's always a codex coming.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're gonna go to Dark Angels.
[SPEAKER_01]: The reason we're gonna go to Dark Angels is the Dark Angels are actually a really good story arc that lines up a lot of stuff that we're gonna be talking.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, there's a lot of bridges to come right now from them.
[SPEAKER_01]: And so that's where we're gonna go next.
