The Imperial Fists are one of the First Founding Chapters of the Space Marines and were originally the VIIthLegion of the Legiones Astartes raised by the Emperor Himself from across Terra during the Unification Wars.
The Imperial Fists stand out from other Space Marine Chapters since they possess no fixed homeworld, although they are most frequently based on Terra. Instead, the Imperial Fists rely on their 10,000-year-old mobile space fortress, Phalanx, to serve as their fortress-monastery.
They maintain recruitment-chapels on various worlds spread throughout the Imperium. Part of the Imperial Fists' duties during the Great Crusade were to function as the Emperor's "personal praetorians," accompanying Him everywhere.
Fun fact: during the fall of Cadia, Imperial Fists used the Phalanx to evacuate tens of thousands of Cadians from the planet, and they allowed them to live there and man the station, so now there's a good chance there are some Cadian Imperial Fists marines

My best Sigsmand quote:
Abbadon: "Sigsmand, you should join us. Don't you see we were lied to, that we..."
Sigsmand: "Ezekiel, you keep talking, does it look like I'm listening?"
And then of course Abbadons words after the fact
1,000 years of constant war, of never ending fighting had taken its toll on him. He was weak, he was slow, he was… brought down to our level. And he still almost killed me.
That is 110% Dorn energy
Sigemand was a lot like his genefather.
This interaction rings the same bell as the Dorn vs Fulgrim talk during their fight.
Also Abbadon was lucky he didn't run across Sigsmand a century earlier. I don't think he would have won.
@@mutantmaster1 Dorn: It is not possible for anything to be above 100%. Nor do I produce energy
@@mutantmaster1 200% Dorn energy would be "No".
If you have an imperial fist with a power fist who then punches, you can say that you have an imperial fist with an imperial fist giving the enemy an imperial fisting.
You CAN say that...
But you shouldn't
You beggin for a fistin'?

Yes - Rogal Dorn
The fist that they use in the symbol is that of the left hand. Which is strange when you consider most things are done with the right hand, salute, shaking hands, right hand man, etc. The only part of Dorn found was his left hand.
Boy scouts use their left hand to shake hands
And rare as they might be. Left handed people are a thing. Maybe dorn was left handed
Damn crazy that they knew which hand Dorn would lose during the siege of terra.
If I remember correctly, the Iron Hands symbols is the right hand so they kinda link up
Hold your left fist up because the right hand is busy holding the bolter
"Yes."

"Yes, phallic individual."
"no"
-Rogal "retreating is cringe" Dorn
Sigismund was THE BEST untainted space marine, everyone in universe agreed. During the siege of terra when the walls fell and the loyalist were falling back into the sanctum the final bastion, Dorn unleashed Sigismund and the templars to strike back one last time. Sigismund went head hunting for every chaos lord, captain, and all the champions of chaos came running for a proper challenge. He killed them all including kharn the loyal. He’s fucking awesome
Here is what I remember form various media about Sigi:
- He was held in very high regard by all Legions especially those of the World Eaters (Kharn referring to him as an oath brother) and the White Scars whose second-in-command he dueled to a standstill.
- Abaddon also considered Sigimsund his greatest opponent and had immense respect for him (pre and post heresy)
- Sanguinius called him a Champion of not just Dorn, but of Death itself
- At the Siege of Terra, Dorn chose Sigismund to be the Champion of the Emperor
- While out to hunt and duel Chaos Champions, Sigismund went head-to-head with Kharn. Unfortunately Kharn got a boost from the Khorne and almost beat Sigi so Dorne had to save him.
- Later on Sigismund was attacked by Fugrim. Even though he, yet again, showed his high level of swordmanship he was no match for a Primarch (less so a demon-possessed one) and the duel was yet again interrupted by Rogal.
- A thousand years later Sigi would duel Abaddon and would lose not to the Dispoiler, but to old age (as Abaddon was demon-fueled and due to the warp seemed pretty unaffected by the passage of time). Despite that, he actually almost killed Abaddon
- Sigismund's last words (to Abaddon) were: "You will die as your weakling father died. Soulless. Honourless. Weeping. Ashamed."
What a character!
@@araposkulo to your point iirc abaddon respected him so much that he sent dogs body and sword back to terra as a show of his respect for him
@@PrestonMcgill I think that was less "respect" and more "look, we strung your champion up and desecrated his body to style on him"
@@ASingleSpaghetti
Didnt they just clean The wounds and take good care of sigismunds body?
There were no warp spagetti spilled on his corpse.
@@ASingleSpaghetti nope, Abbadon specifically said "if you defile his body I'll kill you myself"

KICK THEM ALL OUT NOW OR DO HELP ME EMPEROR
I actually have the excerpt that Bricky was talking about in the beginning, its so much more dope reading it:
Madius beheld it all. Propped up against a broken pillar, he watched his Praetorian’s wrath unleashed.
‘Your pretty wall is broken, Rogal!’ Fulgrim declared. He lashed his blade into Dorn’s shield, and drew splinters. ‘Your famous fortress is undone! It-‘
Dorn’s blow knocked the next words out of his mouth. Fulgrim stumbled. Dorn’s greatsword tore into his ribs. Fulgrim struck back, but found only shield again.
‘You are a man in a broken tower!’ Fulgrim taunted, and spat out blood. ‘You stand so proud, and so defiant, ignoring the fact the tower is falling around you! It will-‘
Another blow. Fulgrim staggered away, then spun, head lowered, hair billowing, keeping his distance. Dorn lunged anyway, driving his shield into body and face. Fulgrim threw him off, and leapt aside.
‘So silent, Rogal,’ he crooned. ‘No words of denial? No pleading for me to change my foolish ways and come back to you? You can tell me it’s not too late. You can promise me sweet forgiveness-‘
Dorn blocked into him, broke his guard with his shield, buried his blade in Fulgrim’s shoulder meat, then body-smashed him across the platform.
‘Deeds are my words,’ Dorn said.
Fulgrim nodded, and spat blood again.
*‘*Always,’ he agreed, licking blood off his teeth. ‘You were never the wit. Never one for fine conversation. Just hard at work and-‘
Dorn broke his guard again with another lunge, carving a chunk of plate from Fulgrim’s flank. Fulgrim surged, and hammered out nine rapid blows, each one a master kill-stroke. Dorn blocked each one. Their blades flew, ringing against each other, drawing sparks.
Fulgrim danced backwards. Dorn advanced.
Fulgrim wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and smeared blood across his cheek.
‘Are you really not going to try and convince me,’ asked Fulgrim, ‘that I have made a mistake? Talk me back into the fold, where I can make amends?’
Dorn surged, and threw two rapid blows that Fulgrim only blocked with effort.
‘No,’ said Dorn.
He struck again, a low slice that Fulgrim parried, then a high back-cut that tore through Fulgrim’s gorget, and scattered broken rings of golden mail.
‘I’m just going to kill you,’ said Dorn.
The Phoenician growled, and charged two steps. Dorn met his first slash with his shield, and countered his second with his blade. A third, he parried; a fourth, he turned aside in a squealing slide of steel that threw off sparks.
Fulgrim backed off, arms spread, circling.
‘Are you, now?’ Fulgrim said. ‘How bold. How empty. Look around.’
Dorn’s glare remained fixed on Fulgrim. He feinted a step, a bait Fulgrim took, then rammed the Phoenician with his shield, and hammered two blows into his ribs with his pommel before they broke contact again.
‘I said look around!’ Fulgrim snapped. Blood was streaming from his wounds, rolling down his gashed armour. Some had got in his hair. He tossed his sword from hand to hand, then seized the grip with both, and hacked down at Dorn. Dorn blocked with a raised shield, turned out, and raked his blade deep across Fulgrim’s chest. Fulgrim stumbled clear.
‘Look around! Look around!’ Fulgrim screeched. ‘See what’s happening, Rogal dolt!** Your tower is tumbling down! No more running to daddy crying, “Look! Look what I’ve built!” It took you years to make this, and in one night, I roll down upon you, crack your shield and build a foothold-‘
Dorn stamped at him, and they traded four swift blows that chimed like bells.
‘Look?’ said Dorn. His gaze did not shift from Fulgrim’s face. ‘I don’t have to. I see it all.’
‘All what?’ snarled Fulgrim. He swung. Dorn turned the blade aside.
‘I see your siege machines burning at the foot of the wall,’ said Dorn ‘I see your sonic weapons silenced. I see your host, foolishly committed in its entirety, pouring into a run of wall that can be held by a force a tenth that size.’
Their blades flashed and rang again. Dorn lost a chunk of shield. Fulgrim took a laceration to the shoulder.
‘And is held by a force a tenth that size,’ said Dorn calmly. ‘Imperial Fists, now bolstered by the two hundred Legiones Astartes veterans I brought with me. Two hundred veterans who are skilled in every doctrine of war. Who have rallied this garrison and this wall stretch, and are now slaughtering the vanguard you so wantonly committed. They thank you for giving them such a wealth of bodies to reap. You have no foothold.’
‘I have!’ Fulgrim roared. He smashed his blade at Dorn, a series of furious strokes. Dorn parried them away. Only one got through, and gouged his shoulder guard.
‘No,’ said Dorn, as they circled again. ‘You’re a fine fighter, but a poor strategist. You committed everything against a gap that could be held. You’ve burned the cream of your host for nothing. Made them cannon fodder. Nine thousand dead and counting. I know, Fulgrim. I know everything.’
‘You know nothing!’ Fulgrim cried. He railed in, and his gleaming blade sliced the flesh above Dorn’s right eye. Dorn caved his ribs with the edge of his shield, punched him in the face with his sword’s guard and kicked him backwards.
‘You’ve let yourself be used as a distraction,’ said Dorn, keeping his gaze on his adversary, ignoring the blood pouring down his face. ‘You’ve let your host be decimated. For nothing. The Saturnine ruse - I know about that too - has failed. Perturabo played his move, and lost his piece. You’re just a pawn. Was it the Lord of Iron who fooled you into this? Lupercal? Abaddon? You must have been willing. Were you getting bored with it? The spear-tip is broken. You’re holding a gate for no one. You’re just an idiot standing on a wall.’
Fulgrim’s eyes widened very slightly.
‘It failed?’ he whispered.
Dorn lunged. Fulgrim leapt back. Dorn sliced, and Fulgrim capered clear.
‘I’m not trapped here’ said Dorn. ‘I’m not under siege today. You are. And that’s why I’m going to kill you.’
The Praetorian swung. Fulgrim parried. Dorn followed in, and the greatsword tore Fulgrim’s cheek open. The Phoenician stabbed frantically, splitting armour, and lacerating Dorn’s side. Dorn struck out, and severed Fulgrim’s left wrist so the hand was left hanging by a shred of flesh.
Dorn drove the entire length of his blade through Fulgrim’s belly.
They stood for a moment as though embracing, the length of Dorn’s sword spearing out from Fulgrim’s spine, steam rising from the blade.
Fulgrim rested his bloody cheek on Dorn’s shoulder, and sighed. Dorn ripped the sword out, and stepped clear.
‘Well,’ whispered Fulgrim, blood spattering out of his mouth. ‘What a mess.’ He straightened up, gore running from his torn face and broken plate. ‘It really failed, then? The Mournival plan?’ he asked.
‘It did. They are all dead.’
‘Oh.’ Fulgrim smiled as much as his butchered face would allow. Teeth were visible through the slash in his cheek. ‘You do fine work,’ he said.
‘I wanted a scalp,’ said Dorn. ‘I wanted his head. Lupercal. But you came instead. A Traitor primarch. I’ll make do with you.’
‘All these things you know,’ said Fulgrim. ‘So very able and informed. But there are things you don’t.’
‘Name one,’ said Dorn.
‘One,’ said Fulgrim. ‘I can’t die.’
He stared at Dorn. His wounds closed, the skin re-knitting without a scar. His dangling hand re-fused. His armour fixed itself and regained its lustre. His blood dried up, and blew away as dust.
‘Two,’ he said. ‘I am sick of all of this. All of it. The others can find a way to grind you down and bring your fortress low. I cannot die, but I feel the pain, and I won’t take any more of it.’
He sheathed his blade. His form began to grow, stretching its dimensions with an unearthly inner light. His legs fused like flowing wax, and he became, from the waist down, a gigantic serpent. The thick loops of his snaking lower body coiled out across the stonework, scales gleaming like mother-of-pearl. He rose up, his lammia-form towering over the Praetorian. There were scales around his eyes and cheek, and his tongue was forked.
Dorn stared back up. He did not take a step backwards, but his eyes narrowed and his grip on his sword tightened. There were no words for the impossibility of what he was seeing with his own eyes.
‘Three,’ Fulgrim said, no longer smiling. ‘I hope our father burns when the time comes. I hope Lupercal turns Him into a screaming corpse. But you won’t see that, Rogal. You’re the one who dies here.’
I love this. I need to read the Dorn book. Favorite primarch.
It might be my bias, but considering how sick Pertarabo was not only of the Heresy but the general incompetence of his traitor brothers, I really like the thought of him using Fulgrim as a throw away distraction.
@@Lazysupermutant prettyface go do shit! *yeets* fulgrim. And now to skadaddle. Fuck. All. Of. You.
*Leaves*
I love how Fulgrim reacts when he told him that the attack failed and he was being used, because he knows Dorn doesn't lie.
@@Lazysupermutant knowing Perty and his petty ass this is for Fulgrim using him to ascend into a daemon primarch.
Ultramarines maybe able to claim the most successor chapters, but it can be argued that Imperial Fists have the most significant. Black Templars and Crimson Fists most famously, and both deserve their own episode. Pedro Kantor's actions can make a grown man weep.
I wouldn't say most significant. I would say most effective and or most famous
exorcists- the chapter that lets daemons posses them- are also imperial fist successors. seems imperial fist successors have a tendency to be extreme lunatics.
Quantity < Quality
Executioners as well, the real OGs of the Badab War.
I second a Crimson Fist Episode, if only because of the Angry Land Raider incident and the best line in the rynns world novel
"brother, you've lost your arm!"
"no I haven't, I can see it over there"
Rogal's home planet is Inwit, Inwit is or was a frozen hellscape, and the Imperial Fists favorite form of art is Scrimschawing. The Inuit live in a frozen hellscape and most if not all their art is scrimshawed onto walrus and seal bones. Did no one else catch this?
So is scrimshaw bone and ivory carving art or am I reading that wrong?
@@azathoththe3rd No, your reading it perfectly right. That’s exactly what scrimshawing is.
sounds nothing like Louisiana
@@commissaryarrick9670 Exactly.
I mean, everyone always has a different geographical interpretation for them for some reason. The night lords are slavs, the smurfs are greco roman, the wolves are norse and i'm pretty sure the blood angels are spanish or italian, yet the fists go anywhere between germany to america to apparently the arctic.
The dueling scar ceremony is extremely similar to mensur fencing in 19th and 20th century German fraternities where the goal was to stoically endure a face wound in the presence of your brothers.

" Come and FIST ME, ROGAL! " - Perturabo, probably
in the same fashion Blood Angels feel the final moments of anger and fury of their Primarch, Dorn's Darkness gives them that feeling of complete and utter horror at seeing a broken and dying Emperor, and a slain Brother. An unequal misery and pain so great and a fear so tremendous they just cannot process it. Anyone who is afflicted basically looks like a stroke victim- they won't even be able to feed themselves. If a member of the Excoriators chapter falls victim, they are put into their stasis crypt to be taken back to their homeworld of Eschara. The aim of these is to create a spiritual darkness of his own within the stasis crypt. In this state they look upon their failings and weakness in hopes they can be spiritually renewed, banish the darkness and be renewed. As it stands it is not known if any other chapter suffers from this
Bonus lore I think I've gotten accurate but correct if wrong; The Imperial fists during the war of the beast were wiped out but their sucessor chapters donated gene seed to rebuild them
Only one guy remained. When indomitus crusade reached phalanx they for new and puree geneseed from the times of start of the Primaris project
@@JedrzuGaming One guy did remain, and his name was Koorland, but he died later on in the war of the beast as well, so the chapter was wiped out.
@@kaiqing243 if i remember he was put as a leader of imperium, due to high lords.. Bering high lords
@@JedrzuGaming Yes, he became Lord commander of the imperium after a coup, but this was still during the war of the beast and he was later killed in the conflict by one of the Beasts
@@JedrzuGaming nah that one guy died in the war of the beast as well
Dk needs to recheck how a Space Marine is made.
They never have anesthesia.
Don't the blood Angel's do technically. When they're in their coffins?
@@lweaver2988 if anything it's worse for them since they are basically drowning in blood while remembering their father die over and over from Horus and come out half insane.
@@digitalninja5941 No they don't. Inside the coffin they are not covered in blood. It is literally a coffin with life support hooked up, and they do all of the surgeries while the individual is asleep in the coffin. They pass the entire time unconcious and in REM sleep but also in a waking dream. They are lucid dreaming while the genes play back random bits of genetic memory. When they see Sanguinious die is when they snap awake and are a proper space marine. If they don't ever wake up it is because they saw the death and died themselves. They actually have a nigh painless transition and one of the HIGHEST success rates for space marines. They don't come out half insane. If anything they are known to come out acting more noble (like Sanguinious himself). The half insane happens later when the rage starts to bleed into them as they work their way up the ranks.
@@Nempo13 the last bit is wrong since in the book Dante it says they are unconscious while soaking in blood and one of the neophyte has been taken by the black rage.
Yeah, they say that. But something tells me they probably do. Because you're not borrowing into a person's head to plant extra organs without them jerking around or causing such trauma that the cost/benefit analysis is no longer worth it and you'll kill the patient or drive them half mad. I'd bet good money that for most of them, that claim is just "in universe" propaganda, because no Apothecary worthy of the title is risking something as precious as gene seed on silly machismo nonsense such as that.
Bricky: * calls Black Templars the most evil loyalist chapter *
Marines Malevolent: “Are we a joke to you?”
Yes, and not just us.
Dorn:Yes
If I remember right, the phalanx was found by rogal as it was orbiting around Inwit or another close planet, it origins were unknown(could be possibly xenos or from the dark age of technology) however the way it looked at first resembles nothing as it does now, rogal retrofitted it to make it look more imperium and so he could use it as he and the mechanicus had no clue how to use the phalanxes original ship, so rogal and his legion added many standered imperium weapons and insignia e.g large canons, cathedral's and plenty of gold
It was hovering in his solar system
I don't know about mods, but I am pretty sure it was a salvage job by Dorn, and that's probably why Big E didn't take/keep it for himself.
God I hope it's DAoT tech. So it could be "unleashed" ala the Speranza when the mechanicus turned it on and it started firing mini black holes and manipulating time to make sure shots hit.
@@Baconmonster723 it is DoA tech but the Speranza stands as literally a 1 off that gets nerfed hard by the 2nd book of that series and can't fight off a takeover by a deranged tech priest even though in the 1st book its alluded to containing a Man of Gold
I think it was a dark age of humanity ship but I am not positive.
The exchange between Dorn and Fulgrim in Saturnine is amazing. Dorn beats Fulgrim physically and verbally.
I mean it’s more strategically, fulgrim is basically fucking with dorn the entire fight and doesn’t care in the slightest.
@@FoxHound-ut1hu Aye, and it really fucks with Fulgrim. I don't know much about him but from Saturnine I got the feeling Fulgrim was the kind of dude who loved mocking others but hated being mocked, or in Dorn's case mocking by ignoring him.
@@Lazysupermutant Not really Pre-Lear Fulgrim was an all round good guy, maybe a bit pretentious but a good dude. Honestly Fulgrim has been done dirty in the heresy books but it was still a truly Chad moment from Dorn.
@@FoxHound-ut1hu Fulgrim acted like he didn’t care until Dorn made him look like a fool. Dorn showing how Fulgrim got played fucked with Fulgrim.
@@FoxHound-ut1hu After just reading the transcript there, I can say Fulgrim definitely started off by fucking with Dorn, but I believe the one who really didn't care was Dorn. He was simply trying to kill Fulgrim and wasn't really rattled by anything that was said to him.
They NEED a sigismund episode to talk about the new lore surrounding him. Like how a young sigismund was originally going to be put in the night lords legion instead during the great crusade and how he stood his ground in a staring contest with a salty leman russ after beating a space wolf champion in a duel. What a chad
He defied leman, like a True fist.
after Sig's first trip to the sparring pits on the Conqueror, Angron tried to trade Dorn his entire librarius for sigismund.
@@bladestormviking
Primarchs trading their marines like some pokemon cards?
That is funny.
Sigis with the nails? The galaxy isn't ready
@@brok56 Angron never saw his sons has his own, they were just troops, so angron trading soldiers for others is not such a big deal, he just trying get a better soldier, like wise he hated his librarius A LOT. Dorn on other hand yes being a bit cold here and there STILL loves his sons and would never do such a thing.
Kinda shows how much Dorn does care for his children and how little angron even thinks about his.
Knock on the door.
Imperial Fists: "Do you want to build snowfort?"
*YES*
DK shocked that he's actually good at hosting is cute, considering he works in broadcasting
Dorns darkness happens at random.
Current chapter master of excoreators was afflicted with it in the midst of battle.
It caused his predecessor and almost all of the 1st company die (He was champion bodyguard of the chapter master).
He was paralized so badly, that only an electryc shock in the neck nerves helped.
Basically an extreme version of crippling depression?
@@silveredbullet802 crippling depression that basically causes a stroke, or symptoms that seem like a stroke
@@silveredbullet802 Like the above comment said, it's more like a stroke and an emotional shock all at once. It's been said some marines basically never recover from it sometimes and are needed to get put down, because they literally are in a vegetative state permanently.

"Black Templars are the most evil loyalist chapter." Bricky the Marines Malevolent called. Also fun fact about the modern fist is the legion went extinct during the War of the Beast but were revived by their successors geneseed donations. Oh and after that first captain came back he was surprised that Dante was still Chapter Master
Are the Malevolents ACTUAL canon though? Like, what's their originator chapter?
The malevolents are absolutely canon, they show up repeatedly in the Salamander's novels.
@@ProjectXA3
Werent they from The cursed founding?
Who knows Who their primarch is, their Genes are a bit spliced.
And I mean the Blood Dragons (BA successor) have a massive "Kill everyone, the emperor knows his people" thing for everyone they like too.
Maximus thane was the last survivor of the original legion it didn't go extinct you lie
Man. As a cajun, I hate that we are now Imperial Fists. And I just had a crawfish boil for Easter.
As a cajun, I'm glad to have already been an imperial fist player. One man's gris gris is another man's blessing.
Especially when you consider Rogal is basically an Inuit. His home planet is literally named Inwit and he has bronze skin.
Dude same. It physically hurts me when they use that accent. I wanted to rep a chapter, but not like this.
Get back to reinforcing your boats and fufilling your daily requirement of calling Pertarabo mean names.
I don't care how long it takes, Sigismund definitely deserves his own episode.
Someone needs to make a fanfic where an Imperial Fist is captured by a Night Lord or drukhari, and the captor gets increasingly frustrated as the Fist just is like "oh yeah that's the stuff."
I’m fairly certain that’s the backstory for First Company Captain Lysander, though he was captured by the Iron Warriors instead
Imperial Fist: *becomes part of the wall*
guardsmen: cute. You became another piece of it, I was born in it and I'll die the same
Pretty sure that ending sound bite is what you hear when your Gellar field goes out mid warp travel.
Ironic, how Bricky says he doesn’t wants to talk about Dorn’s deeds but in the fight with Fulgrim he literally says “ Deeds are my words”
Keep in mind in the fight between Sigismund and Sevatar, Sev was a suppressed psyker, one of his abilities showed him flashes of the future which made him such an effective duelist.
And Sigismund tied him for nearly 30 hours before Sev got sick of the stalemate and headbutted him so he could go home.
1 step closer to the Crimson fist episode
They didn't even mention Alexis Polux. :(
Pedro kantor is absolutely a top tier chapter master
I am fortifying this position for Adeptus Ridiculous
I dont need sleep, I need to fortify this strategical and structural importand position
We are sending a shipment of mastercrafted cerimite plates for use in construction. We are also in the process of Putting together about 8 cargo ships full of plasteel to join up with the shipment of rockcrete that the minustratum is sending your way.
I have arrived with 8000 laborers and another 10000 more on the way
while the results of the iron warriors and the fists are very similar
the difference is in the methods
the fist make a wall without weaknesses, the iron warriors make a wall with fake weaknesses drawing their enemy into traps
the fists go in slow and steady anchored by heavy tanks and hardpoint fortifications, the iron warriors go in with trenches hiding that they are undermining your walls
If you haven't read it "Storm of Iron" is a novel about iron warriors attacking a fortress which gets reinforced with imperial fists, good action, really good character development of imperial guard and iron warriors. It also introduces Honsou the halfbreed to the 40k universe
Patiently waiting for my Pedro Kantor/Crimson Fists episode.

All the chaos Primarchs stayed loyal, and all the loyal primarchs went traitor, except Gulliman cuz he just sat back at Ultramar and made is own imperium
It was called the theoreticus heresy
It'd be hilarious if every Space Marine had to get a mandatory tramp stamp of their chapter insignia.
And all the brandings are done by a Salamander wearing a "Kiss the Chef" apron.
It was from a book made by Ian Watson before 3rd Edition, so it is not canon 40K, the same way that Inquisitor Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau and Librarian Tigarius parent being Eldar is not canon.
I don’t think he’s on the table top but the shortest ever recorded space marine was a fist named Maximmion Voss. He was apparently significantly shorter than your average marine, so to compensate, he just bulked up to crazy level, so much so that his captain had to make him stop, putting on more muscles cause of how annoying it was to keep having his power armor refitted all the damn time, safe to assume this lad ate his Wheaties. He was also just so good at everything he was skilled in melee, shooting, vehicles, he was so good he got seconded to the Deathwatch.
A meme is born... and somewhere across the sea Luetin mutters under his breath "damn you Bricky" 🤣
You can actually HEAR the moment that Bricky's soul dies in the poster shilling.
Oh neat, glad to hear that Fists recruiting on Necromunda is still a thing. Back in the early 90s there was just the three 40k novels available unlike how spoilt for choice people are today. There was the Inquisitor trilogy (a squat is one of the main characters), Deathwing (to this day one of my favourite collection of 40k short stories including a fantasticly grim tale about how dang miserable life in the guard can be), and there was also one about the Fists where the main character starts off as a ganger on Necromunda. Note this predates Necromunda the game, and this is still back from when that was called Confrontation.
I just finished the last one. The squats are also in it and an Emperor Titan flips off some other titans before destroying them.
Imperial Fist: Hey there Brother, do you want to try this pain glove for meditation? It can create simulated burning pain effects.
Salamander: See-mew-lah-tid Burning??? I'm sorry brother, your words make no sense.
In the end bricky broke before the guard did in the case of the poster, for the nyemporer lol
that catboy poster is the reason why I am aligned with chaos
I'm really hoping Raven Guard are next, really wanna hear about the Edgelord Bird boys and their Emo-Demon Primarch
“Who’s bones?” DK - this is ALWAYS a relevant and important question… in both lore and life…
So hype for monthly “Truly Ridiculous” episodes. Great job DK, looking forward to it.
"Do no ask me to approach the battle meekly, to creep through the shadows, or to quietly slip on my foes in the dark. I am Rogal Dorn, Imperial Fist, Space Marine, Emperor's Champion. Let my enemies cower at my advance and tremble at the sight of me." -3rd Ed Core rulebook
Heh I really love this cover art with the sand castle and happiness
Can't wait to see the new lore of the iron cage when it comes out:)
Phalanx is the massive starship that serves as the mobile fortress-monastery of the Imperial Fists Space Marine Chapter and was constructed many millennia ago by unknown hands during the Dark Age of Technology long before the Age of the Imperium.
If Rylanor can wait a million nights to call Fulgrim a bitch I can wait too
I love that dornable's "No." Is the most replayed part of the video.
On the topic of sons of Dorn, I have a suggestion, if/when you do the black Templars chapter, you should do an episode on Sigismund in place of a primarch video.
This was honestly the least in-depth dive on any faction that you've released. DK and Bricky, into the pain glove. Shy, you have the controls, the bridge is yours.
Get well soon Shy!
I think the Iron warriors has a ways to go as the DKOK and the Inquisition smashed through their defenses on Vraks.
Idk if any of the Adeptus Ridiculous crew will see this but If so, I just wanted to let you guys know we appreciate all the work you do in making this podcast for us, all the funny memes and videos and posters and merch and etc. You guys go well above and beyond, and i as well as many others appreciate it, you guys work on this show even when you’re sick, and tired and we all really love and appreciate that about the three of you. It really shows your passion for Warhammer40k, a passion we all share. Keep on making great content guys, and we’ll keep on loving it.
That sound at the very end is what Imperial Fists make when they wear the pain glove.
21:09 If the official motto of AdRid is entertainment before accuracy, the wiki's official motto should be citation needed.
"Imperial fists like pain; It's a big part of their culture"
So they're definitely feeding slaanesh
Here's hoping theres a hellish Death World in 40K that's inspired by Louisiana
YEAHHHH BOYYYYSSSS THIS IS MY LEGION
Personally I like their successor chapter The Black Templars, mostly because of the zealotness of the chapter.

I've recently learned that there's a moment in a novel/or book where Ferrus Manus ate sand because he was hungry
The only reason Rogal and the Imperial Fists went into the Iron Cage was because they couldn’t *read* the warning signs!!
Cool but why so late im from Switzerland it starts like at 10pm (night) 😅
But still fantastic
Luckily here it's 5:30 pm (Newfoundland Canada)
Yeah the original time was great for me as I start work at 6am aus time. And it was always out so I could listen on my way to work, 1 hour long drive. Disappointed I won't be able to listen to it this morning🥲🥲.
Because Shy got fucking Nurgled by a cab driver and now she’s Nurgling all out of her nose and mouth and shit.
Shy is ill, which is why it will be posted later.
Courland/slaughter is definitely worth covering he has an amazing story for post heresy
VENGEANCE FOR SIGISMUND!
NO PITY! NO REMORSE!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The Imperial fists are good at building fortifications.

"The more of a fight you put up, the better you resist, the more likely you are to be a recruit."
...Hold up, I could be wrong here, but wasn't that the exact same recruitment method for the World Eaters?
Trial by fire is always tried and true
they are both marshal
46:08 Necromonger's feel no pain. or I just think of Dune's Gom Jabar scene and Paul's pain litany: "I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
i wouldnt worry about the Iron Hands because even GW has forgotten about them.
+THEIR FLESH IS WEAK+
We are Iron Hands fans, the pain will literarily never stop at least not until we are blessed by the embrace of metal.
If you want to get an idea of the Broken heart of Dorn. I cannot recommend enough Baldemorts three part episode on Rogal Dorn.
Too understand the pain you have to fully grasp the Imperial Dream and how Dorn believed fully in the dream.
Fun fact
During the war of the beast the entire imperial fist chapter is killed and has to be recreated from successor chapters
So, meaning that modern IF is an imposter, a false idol
@@Madjo-qj2ge Considering that it was still Imperial Fist Geneseed used(sucessor or not,They are the sons of Adornable).
They are Fists,no discussion.
@@Madjo-qj2ge you could look at it like that but the imperial Fist only semi broke up to begin with. they have a protocol that if things get real bad the chapter Master of the imperial Fists can activate and the entire group of Dorn successor chapters come back and temporarily reform the legion. Which is what happened at the time
Well, ALMOST every impfist died in the beginning of the war of the beast (if I remember correctly).
There were a few, about a hundred or less Impfists that were guarding holy terra during that incident and were not on the frontline.
But yea ... it took about 100-200 years for the chapter to get back to its original strength.
@@ottoarvidsson4526 the chapter was sent to fight orks on a planet but it went bad and only one guy named koorland survived. He become the defacto chapter master and was called the "last son of Dorn". He's the one that activated the protocol to bring all the successor chapters back and he later died fighting the beast.
Alexis Pollux: *breathes heavily during the entire episode*
Another reason Imperial Fists take more casuslties is because their sus-an memrane organ doesn't work. When regular marine suffers a lethal wound that does not blow up his head or chest, he activates sus an membrane and goes into hybernaton. If marines win the engagement, comatose wounded marines could be recovered and healed or put ino dreadnoughts, if they're wounded too much. Fists dont have that safety net - when one of them falls in battle, he dies for good.
The stuff about the Tunnel of Terror and the Fist tattoo and the process of becoming an Imperial Fist and their love of pain is from the Ian Watson novel from the early 90's - Space Marine. The novel itself predates the Black Library and is no longer considered canon. A large part that was due to Watsons writing style which was a little too, well... erotic for GW as they moved forward. There was also a lot of stuff in there which got retconned like Squats (hey they're back!) and Zoats for example. The early Watson novels, including the Inquisition trilogy did however lay a lot of the groundwork for what the 40k universe was to become imo. In my head canon I've always treated his work as the proper lore.
I think there’s another novel that follows 3 rival tribe youths from anFist recruitment planet when they’re yanked from the middle of a big old war to be Space Marines that does a better job of handling the canon side
I believe the Tunnel is there but under a different name, as is the modern depiction of The Pain Glove
The more they talked the sense Cajun Imperial Fists makes.
Imperial Fists: Fortifying the Little Guys since M.31
Sigismund is my favorite Fist. Almost all his quotes are actual pieces of wisdom, such as-doubt is the greatest weakness, or the best- I will not fail!
Markiplier's not a masochist. He's just an early made Imperial Fist!
Only loyalist to kill a traitor primarch unless you count the dubious Guilliman killing "Omegon"
only primarch to kill another without warp hacks
@@henrypaleveda7760 , every primarch is a warp hack.
@@Ashtor1337 but Horus was bolstered by all for and fulgrim had slaanesh backing him when he got Ferrus, Dorn didn't pull anyone else's power for alpharius/omegean
@@henrypaleveda7760 , wrong. 1. The twin primarchs we're smaller than their brothers. This is confirmed in one of the first HH books. When one of them is standing before Horus and he is closer in size to the dick head from the word bearers Isabel, Elizabeth what ever the f*** his name is. 2. As of thier fight with Dorn they had not tapped into chaos and were just fighting a bigger stronger and faster opponent. 3. It is unclear if they were in fact working for Horus or were playing a longer game and we're actively trying to convince Dorn that they had inside info and Dorn was just having none of it because they are dirty lying alpha legion and can not be trusted.
Nothing against Dorn but if the twins were not fighting together and or from the shadows they could never take one of their brothers in a one on one fight. They were not designed for that. They are not fighters. They are sabatours.
4. Literally every primarch has warp fuckery powers. Some are just more blatant than others.
@@Ashtor1337 I know they have warp fuckery, I was referring to said fuckery not being bolstered by another outside force such as a chaos "god." The point was Dorn a loyalist got a kill on another primarch and is the only primarch to get such a kill without gaining assistance from another warp entity. Not saying he was stronger than his brothers.
Jesus the Imperial Fists seem like a whole Legion of Teddy Roosevelts.
Dorn's darkness sounds like the equal but opposite force to the blood angels blood rage.
Blood angels get lost in the anger of Horus's betrayal, the fists are a few minutes ahead in their grief and get lost in the abject horror of losing the Emperor and the most beloved primarch.
If the imperial fists are from Louisiana I just imagine Sigismund talks like tahm kench from league of legends.
I think the black templars would be more like Florida men similar but unhinged and less stable (mentally)
Bet they’re celebrating today. Happy 420!
In that same scene where Dorn was shit talking Fulgrim he did, in fact, kick Fulgrim's ass
Bro, Dorn literally beat the shit out of Fulgrim furing that “you’re an idiot on a wall” quote you said
Okay a bit late than usual tbh I actually got scared for a second :))
As a cajun and imperial fists player, I'm 100% okay with this meme
That ending was fucking beautiful, Shy, well done.
Brother the ice cream thunderhawk approaches... finish the landing pad, I do hope they have sprinkles
I also love how the phalanx is still massive even after having to scour 10% of its hull mass to save it from corruption by turning its own guns inward
20:40 For the citation, I just finished reading Space Marine by Ian Watson. That happens in chapter 4.
“Despicable neophytes, jeered a loudspeaker,
Welcome to the Tunnel of Terror. This is an amusing variation on the nerve-glove. You will enter naked, An energy membrane denies access to anyone wearing any protective garments. Along the tunnel there exist a few modest zones of safety. Between these are zones where you will experience mischievous phenomena such as incandescent heat, absolute cold, airless vacuum, induced agony, and such. Oh yes, and gravity increases the further you proceed. It will be interesting to see which safe pockets you end up cowering in. Should any puny neophyte reach our end, which seems unlikely, you will be rewarded with a brand of honour on your buttock. You will of course all enter the Tunnel of Terror because, commencing now, the air is to be exhausted from your end of this chamber. Proceed, and entertain us!"'
…
“Yet still, there was to be a branding upon the leather-tough buttocks: an imprint of a clenched fist, no larger than a fingernail. Only, this was indeed to be an honour-for the Sergeant himself personally wielded the electro-iron when Lexandro, Yeremi, and Biff bent over to flex the great gluteal muscles of their rumps.
Did he himself bear such a brand. hidden beneath his uniform? Had he too once conquered the Tunnel of Terror? He must. He must have. Surely. This was one of the arcane rites of passage of the Chapter.”
As soon as you mentioned Ian Watson, I knew immediately how it was going to go
@@thedoomslayer8900 Have you read the books or just watched the TTS about it?
@@jm329 I have read the books actually. I lost a bet
@@thedoomslayer8900 That’s good. A lot of people who talk about him have only watched the TTS, and that exaggerated a lot. People only know the meme version.
@@jm329 True
3 Primarchs Killed other Primarchs (Not Including Vulcan)
Fulgrim killed Ferrus Manus
Dorn killed Omegon (or possibly Alpharius)
Horus killed Sanguinius
Callidus assassin M’Shen killed Konrad Curze.
Many Primarchs seriously injured/wounded other.
Konrad Curze killed Konrad Curze, he cut off his own head, to show the Assassin how they should have done it... M'Shen just got the Honours of the Kill... Meaning that Konrad didn't die the same way as what was Foretold, he Ultimately Changed his Fate... He might come back to life, simply because he Changed his Fate in the End...
