From the moment Wes understood the weakness of his flesh, it disgusted him. He craved the strength and certainty of steel. He aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.
"Omnissiah, Omnissiah.
From the Bleakness of the mind
Omnissiah save us
From the lies of the Antipath
Circuit preserve us
From the Rage of the Beast
Iron protect us
From the temptations of the Fleshlord
Silica cleanse us
From the Ravages of the Destroyer
Anima Shield us
Machine God Set Us Free
Omnissiah, Omnissiah."
Machine is immortal.
Even in death I serve the Omnissiah
The machine spirit called out to him.
Praise be the Omnissiah!!!
I just booted up Mechanicus Heretek 😂 as I read this comment
Headcanon: all the forgeworlds have varied colourschemes, but only in the ultraviolet and infared spectrums, so that you can't see them without optic enhancements
So, that’s not actually far off from what goes on in the lore: The Adeptus Mechanicus utilizes a type of Augmented Reality network called the “Noosphere” and those who are augmented to do so, can see it as streams of data and information , tagged to the world around them.
So a Skitarii “data-tether” can actually be seen as a tether of data being transmitted up into orbit by others who are logged into the Noosphere…if a weapon has an “awoken spirit”, aka, cogitator-components to it, then it’s user can see things like a round count, chamber/barrel temperature, misfire warnings, range finding, tragectory predictor lines, etc, with just a glance at it. They can also get feed data of the battlefield piped into their brains via the Noosphere from orbital satellites and ships, get ballistic calculations sent to their feeds by their spotters, etc. Aside from the Skatros, no Skitarii sniper uses a scope on their rifles/arquebuses. They don’t need it.
Basically, Skitarii are some of the best shots in the Imperium because they literally get more info in the field then almost any other soldier/warrior there…
…and the Priests of Mars novel series, shows that a common upgrade for cult layfolk, thralls, labourers, etc, is an implant that allows access to the Noosphere….and even more common, are Electoo brandings…basically glowing sigils implanted beneath the skin that work like ID chips, with a lot of data viewable through the Noosphere.
So basically, the robe and armour schemes are there mostly for the benefit of their allies identifying them, or as camoflage (such as with the original Red robes on Mars, or the choice to switch to orange for Ryza’s rust dunes). Anyone who needs to know within the Cult Mechanicus, wouldn’t have to see the colours or painted sigils to identify a group of Skitarii’s forge world, they’d just go into AR mode and see that group’s alliegence, maniple/legion, entire declassified record of battle, medical response info, and maybe their favourite foods and that they like long romantic walks across the Manufactorum gangplanks with cans of Sacred Unguents garnished with tiny metal umbrellas, in hand.
@sklaWlivE In the grim darkness of the 41st millenium, we are sadly still not free from people posting about food on social media.
So, about the "noodpheare", considering how much tech and history is not really known, any chance that the real name of their network at least as a nickname even was newspjeare but people spoke with a New Yorker accent so it came out asnoospheare?
And then when the tech priest tried to pass this info forward it got mangled up with the "noosphere" concept?
@WolframHeart-xp2px Noosphere is an existing theoretical concept. Lithosphere - the planet; biosphere - the life on the planet; noosphere - the network of communication and interpersonal relationships on the planet, as I understand it.
@@WolframHeart-xp2px Also, from what I recall, the Noosphere is actually a more recent development then most AdMech Tech, and is actually well understood as a result.
It was a theoretical framework and experimental tech during the Great Crusade, but was implemented en masse after the original data network the Mechanicum used was utterly corrupted and suborned by the Horus-aligned High Fabricator General. Those loyalist forces who were spared from Mars’s data crash and data-djinn attacks, were the ones unplugged, or already using the new Noosphere as essentially “beta-testers”.
…so, necessity became the Mother of Invention, and the AdMech implemented the Noosphere, despite being new and experimental technology, faster than when Belisarius Cawl discovered the “Safe Fire” switch on the majority of Plasma Weapons.
Noosphere isn’t immune to corruption though, it’s just more resilient than the previous more open network…so AdMech Techxorcists don’t have to worry that much for their livelihoods.
I'd love to see a similar video about the different sept worlds of the Tau, one of the most overlooked parts of the lore by both the fans and GW
I'll add it to my list!
I'd love to see this one too! They have very interesting stuff there but it's rarely every explored
@@weshammerI’d definitely like to see you do this, and I’m not even a tau fan, I’m genuinely just curious
@weshammer need more on the Tau inquisitors.
But what's the point? They're foul xenos whose continued existence is a result of a minor oversight of the blessed Imperium that was preoccupied with more important issues.
Jokes aside, it's interesting how various subfactions of Tau interact. Is Farsight the only one doubting the Ethereals? How's he doing in his own domain?
Dude, I love how you make your lore videos. I love lore, but your videos are unlike the large majority and I absolutely love it.
Glad you like them!😃
Yeah other lore tubers act like scholars Wes is like a friend excited to tell you about his interest and his interest is very grimdark
@@javendanielbuckett4613also he isn’t a bigot or a Nazi which happens a lot in this fanfdom
I agree wholeheartedly. What does he do different? I can’t put my finger on it
@@javendanielbuckett4613 i feel like weshammer when i explain warhammer to my friends and family
The flesh is weak, but my love for 40k lore is eternal
And then... they went woke and destroyed it all.
You've got what my grandfather called a "Cavalry Body". Because in the Horse Cavalry a tall torso gives you more shock and reach with a saber, but long legs are a hindrance on horseback, making it hard to rise in the saddle to deliver overhand cuts, and generally are awkward in both the gallop and the trot, due to longer stirrups. He told me this when I was a kid and he was teaching me to ride a horse, because I'm the opposite of you, shorter torso and long legs and I had gotten discouraged while learning to ride at a trot because it was just exhausting. Just thought you might think that was cool
That is actually really cool thanks for sharing! Sorry horse back riding was rough for you back then tho, that must've sucked being told that
I wrote my own Forge World for an Only War campaign I played in for a bit. Vulcan’s Bounty was a II Primus grade forge world that apecialized in Las Weaponry and had a traditional view on innovation. It was burned to the ground by the Word Bearers and the imperial Guard regiment is a broken people that are slowly dying out.
This raises an interesting question, how many Forge Worlds does AdMech have taking into account that the Imperium has around 1 million planets?
at least 2
Probably around if not a little more then there are hive worlds
Well GW like epic round numbers so either 1,000 or 10,000 or one per sector
500,000 worlds.
I'll go with around ten thousand at least because of the necessary output of the Imperium itself and the insane distance of the galaxy.
Not forgetting that all forge world aren't as devellopped that those presented by Weshammer. Some are probably nearly destroyed, or crippled for a reason or another or are just some century old.
I always look forward for the lore covering Adeptus Mechanicus. They are my favorite fraction in wh40k and today is a good day to hear about blessed planets of the Omnisaiah faithful servants.
All hail to the machine god.
I’m partial to ⅞ myself.
30
30
I wonder if the local mechanics count as the Ineptus Mechanicus
Majority of the mechanics in the Imperium are Mechanicus.. they don't like letting anyone else touch their machines. Local mechanics aren't a thing
The ones that aren't Adeptus Mechanicus are the Dark Mechanicus agents still posing as faithful
hahahaha
lmao
Those are called the Orks.
I just realized that if a tech priest figured out how to make STC they could add any tech they wanted and have it be accepted.
That would be considered, Heresy.
@@the_golden_eggvan2567while that would be true, to prove that the STC is made by someone and is not from some random plebe techpriest would be a hard push
Kind of funny to pump up Forge World Graia so much and not mention that it was saved twice by a single Ultramarine. And is currently now known for really mid autoguns.
I really like the longer episodes. Perfect for getting sleepy to or a train ride home.
I would love you to do a video about unique chaos cults/chaos space marines warband ^^. Thanks for the great content as always, Wes.
The only forge worlds I knew from this video beforehand were Mars, Graia (from the Spacemarine game) and Ryza (from the Titanic defense of Ryza video from Luetin09)
Honestly these are the best types of deep dives, not the same repetitive generalised overview, but an actual inlook at their methodologies
Personally, I'd love more - if there was enough time in the day I'd ask for many many more diving slightly more in depth, such as perhaps 2 or 3 forge worlds but a minor story time regarding them in a video
Great video and i have to say Lucius has always been my favorite Forge World. Behind them i don't know if i have a number 2.
"The Ever Staring Cyclops" and "Furnace of Shackled Stars" are such metal titles (Pun intended). Great vid, really want more Admech stuff if you need the excuse
Also, I desperately want some of those tank sized tech priests in tabletop. I like Kastelans and Dunecrawlers as much as the next guy, but I would love to field something like the magos on the 10th ed codex
I would love to see a video of the notable human and xenos alliances that have occurred. Like the Tanith working with the Eldar or Cain working with Tau against a Genestealer cult.
id love to hear more about the various Astra Militarum/Imperial Guard units, in particular the old ones they don't make minis for anymore like the Praetorian, Mordian Iron Guard, Tallarn, etc.
I'd love to hear more about the Vostroyan Firstborn, as they're my absolute favourite Guard Legion 🙏🏼
The Tanith First and Only especially.
Perfect timing! Starting to build my first army, and pretty much immediately gravitated towards the mechanicus, but had no idea how to really make them unique. I had no idea there were so many forge worlds! I'll probably watch this video a few times to decide which one I really want to model after, or maybe i'll take some inspiration and create my own forge world.
Great vid Wes, I always love hearing about the Mechanicus. I don't care what you cover next, I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Mechanicus needs more models with spider legs! You can always see just a swarm of legs underneath the robes of Belisarius cawl as well as some of the other tech priests like the Dominus. I want to see a combat unit, either an infantry unit, or a combat walker with more spider legs! The Dune crawlers, so cool! Mechanicus has such a unique feel, I want to see more of the quirky creepy unit that give such flavor to the army
Can Weshammer do a video about Bruva Alfabusa and TTS? It would be funny for him to discuss the Fabulous Custodes.
I hear oiled abs quivering.
Ah ya ya yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Perfect vid to watch while doing school work :D!!
And rewatch at home when I can use Wi-Fi worth a damn :P
Definitely Rysa, my personal forces require me to be building and productive, I would be absolutely devastated were I to be stuck in a situation where I was disallowed to build novel designs.
More spoopy stories! :3
Like Cast a hungry Shadow.
Ive made a custom forge world called plagos, the sunken shrine.
They have green and brown robes with bronze armour.
Their unique quirk is that there forges are all underwater, and the planets oceans cool there engine's
There's potential for unique cultural characteristics related to an ocean world here. Maybe they use ocean water to quench steel as a ritual much like how the Iron snakes bring a bottle of ocean water from the home planet to bless the worlds they land on. Normally you don't quench steel with water unless you have nothing else to use because water cools hot steel too quickly making the metal too brittle and potentially causes warping. But this can be mitigated by mixing manganese into the steel and manganese is also common in sea water. Not to mention IRL you have manganese nodules forming at the bottom of the ocean from various complex biochemical processes which contain mainly iron, nickel and manganese. The techpriests probably considered these ore holy gifts from the Omnissiah. And they probably ornate their guns with nacre harvested from marine animals like how people do it with luxurious hunting rifles and shotguns.
Another thing to consider is their favored choice of weapons if you want to go a more realistic route. Ocean planets are more likely to have a thick atmosphere because they tend to be larger and young planets where there's a lot of volcanic activity and lots of water to begin with. A thick atmosphere will absorb radiation, making large scale energy weapons less effective but favor explosive weaponry because thick atmosphere transmiss shockwave very well and water even more so. So they probably arm their titan legion with missile launchers to deliver massive warheads Such planets will probably also have an oxygen rich atmosphere from all the planktons in the ocean. This means incendiary weapons are more effective in a thick and oxygen rich atmosphere. So the infantry should prefer energy weapons because they tend to have an incendiary effect and since they don't fight at extreme long distance the energy loss from the atmosphere would be minimal.
Omnisiah, how I LOVE these videos! The Adeptus Mechanicus is one of, if not, my FAVORITE faction EVER! Your lore videos are AMAZING! Out of all the forge worlds, Stygies 8 is also my favorite one!
I would like to see a lore video on the Iron Hands. Since the Mechanicus and the Iron Hands are about the flesh is weak!
Anyway, nice job 👍!
I appreciate the transitions between factions in your script 👌
I haven't came so fast to a WesHammer video since he got that handsome haircut
I hope we one day get to see an Adeptus Mechanicus centric CRPG. I love Rogue Trader and I hope it might open the door to more rpgs in the 40k Universe. Flying around uncovering warp routes, scanning planets, and so on, made me sometimes dream of doing something similar just as a part of the Explorator Fleet. Uncovering Archeotech and fighting Heretek in the name of the Omnissiah.
Would love for you to do a deep dive into the Grey Knights. Going through Their origins, name characters the brotherhoods there's just so much to the faction. I know you touched on it in your shorts but a deep dive would be Epic!! Thanks again for all your hard work you rock 🤘
I like how i watched weshammer shorts on YT not even that long ago. then the community just let him cook, and next thing you know hes got merch and long form vids with quality content. Im happy for him:). Not that long ago this man wasnt even top 20 WH40K youtubers and now hes easily top 3 in growth and overall on top of the food chain. LET HIM COOK!
Honorable mention for Orestes Prime, from the novel Titanicus. Its a youngish hive world that has an honest to Emperor Titan repair facility who's bays are built vertically into a dead volcanoe and acessed by walking up TITAN SIZED STAIRS. The Mechanicus and the Legio had a heavy presence in the captial hive that surrounded the facility.
In the novel it gets invaded by a chaos Legio and theres an engine war, and efforts of the locL mechanicus to get the upper hand result in heresy. Its juat such a good book
Would love to see a video on the Emperor’s Spears!
Would love to see a video about the unique weapons of the mechanicus.
Wes this was a great lore video, will this become the start of a series of each races subfactons?
Yes. I think I'm either gonna do eldar or tau next
@weshammer tau would be crazy! For arguably the most "hard sci fi" race in 40k I rarely see any lore on them. Prolly cuz they're communists and too many of us have played fallout😂
@@weshammer Tau would be great (not just because I'm a Tau player) but it would be interesting to see what you put together, really appreciate the effort you put into your stuff and it's great to see, thanks :)
It is my dream that one day GW will release a full encyclopedia dedicating to describing places of the Galaxy of 40k. Name dropping important planets, space stations, space landscapes, maps of towns, geography details, forge worlds, space marine homeworlds...
Adeptus Mechanicus were already my favourite faction in 40k.
But Dyson Spheres and world stripping Halo-Machines? HOLY MOLY!
My Favourite here is Metalica.
I agree with you. The Martians hide behind machines, but dig little and they are more human than most.
Great video thank you for your hard work. It really does pay off 💯❤️🤖
Loved this. Your content is always a pleasure to watch and listen to.
You manage to convey excitement but your voice is still calming and you go in such detail even veterans can enjoy so much.
The octet bless you!
Im so glad you made this. I didnt even know there was lore for separate forge worlds. Dont let content arguments get you down, yours is novel
Excellent depth on the research 👏
Slap me with that Mechadendrite knowledge Wes... I need it.
You should cover the various Ordinatus, they are one of the most powerful weapons of the Mechanicus, they are even rarer than the emperor class titans.
You da man, Wes. Please keep making content.
I'd really like to know your take on Constantine Valdor : what he was, what he did, what was his place, what he thought and what he is doing right now among other things.
Once more, excellently digestible info. Plenty of new lore even for a long time 40K fan!
Visual aid choices are spot on too!
Great material. Thanks man.
Ryza because when so much of the mechanicum was divided or faced treachery they rallied the loyalists and held the line against the Warmaster. Also Crucius is my favorite titan legio.
Thanks for the video!
Yay, new Weshammer video!
I would appreciate it if you made more videos on the Mechanicus, it would also be nice if they were longer too.
Awesome video! Tons of great lore I had no clue about
Great video thank you please keep up your great work
Ryza remains my favorite of the forge worlds as a result of the Battle of Ryza in the horus heresy, if you take time to read about how that went.
Forgeworld Metallica also has a thriving rock-and-roll scene.
The God that failed blasts daily.
Wes, my greatest hope is that you make an Adeptus Arbites video deep dive. Keep up the great work
Though only one truth prevails in the Mechanicus order: *nobody skips Toaster-f*cking day.*
Can you make vid deep dive about the assassin temples ALL of them
I've been pretty deep into collecting space marines since I started playing when I was 12, but if I were to only get into 40k now, the mechanicus are my ideal image of grim dark and would definitely be my go to army
I liked those sukers from Gryphonne IV. It is like the Eldar. Wanderers in space. Would like to know more about this loss to the Hive
Tjx
Little disappointed that you didn't cover Lathe-Het, Lathe-Hesh, and Lathe-Hadd. Still, top quality vid as always Wes.
I've been praying for an upload Thanks mate this faction is one of the more interesting ones in my opinion anyway 👍🙏
Another fantastic video ^^ I know Xana II became Dark Mechanicus and we're still waiting to get more lore on them, but can't say I wasn't hoping for it to have a little mention here. Next time!
PLEASE do Guardsmen faction next, the rest are so underrated and under talked about it’s just crazy considering how cool they are, when we hear Guardsmen it’s always just “Cadia STAND!” or “The Commissar will probably get killed from trying to hold you back from death charging into the enemy line rather than them executing others” which for the latter is not even always the case, as evidenced by Vraks.
I'm surprised this video is only 30 mins long, this seems like a topic that could have easily been an hour long video.
Hey man hope the spooky nights were good and it's good to hear that awesome voice again.
"I'm all torso baby" 😂 love it
Ok.... The Crown of Miracles/Grand Crown(not sure, this is my first exposure to it) has to be the coolest most terrifying(for primitive species, or real humanity right now) concept I have seen in sci-fi for a long time
Good to see you again Wes. Be safe this holiday season and make sure to take Santa's mojito when he hits Clearwater lol 😆
Awesome deep dive, Wes. Mechanicus are my favorite faction.
Love this one and more drukari
First Wes video. Definitely slaps. Props my guy.
All surprisingly unique. I actually did not expect that.
I would like to see the survivors of that last world that got wrecked by the tyranids, to colonize a new world and focus exclusively on combating the tyranids in the future
I used to imagine each Forge World aligned with a sector/Chapter, each one in the DAOT a capital their empire now sector was built around
lol, almost all major population sectors died in the birth of she who thirsts, those highly civilised worlds were also the ones most tolerant of psykers, and thus also most directly at risk to being dragged into the warp when the eye of terror opened,
in lore i believe the common name for those places now are vortexes of screams or something like that.
and those dead worlds are still screaming 15 thousand years after the eye of terror opened(it opened in M26 i think)
I'd love to see a vid on the Lathe worlds Hadd Het and Hesh, since they're some of the coolest forgeworlds in the setting :)
Weshammer being the most informative WH40k lore guy. I go to A Vox in the Void for stories, Wes for lore and ebjoy them both immensely.
Also Lucius supplies my favorite guard, regiment, Death Korps of Krieg.
i am also all torso, i wish you had mentioned that you shirts are good for ppl like us!!
More lore on necrons please
Metalica is my favorite forge world. I attached to them because of the white, red and black but when I found out they absolutely abhor flesh and have a literal metal planet I loved them.
I’m not even an AdMech fan
Okay dude, I remember shitting on your video style like a year or two ago, and honestly you've become one of my favorite Warhammer youtube channels
Thank you so much for your content I really like it. I especially enjoy your deep dives such as these. My request from the dj is please make a video on Caiphus Cain. He’s the best and he fights fkn everyone
I love the sneaky bois.
I'd love a video about the named Orks, besides Ghazghkull Thraka!
This is the ideal video to watch during my work right now. Um trying to turn a pile of broken PC's into a couple working one's.
Praise the omnisiah.
Love it when you cover my main army
The Mechanicus are the solution to the Tyranid problem. While the Necrons sleep, The Mechanicus beeps....menacingly.
Have you done the lore video for the creation of warhammer? Not the in universe but the writers, first models and the like?
Heya Wes. Got to agree with you. Love the Stygese 8 Mechanicus. They sound really cool and I wish more of the Imperium would embrace the Xenos tech. Especially the Aeldari stuff :)
Yes, inquisitor, that s the heretic i reported.
Can you make a video about Jago Sevatarion and the Night Lords ( Deep dive video )?
More Orks please
I was hoping we could see some info on The Lathe Worlds in the Calixis Sector
Good video
Take a shot every time he says "the next forgeworld we're gonna talk about"
Pls do traitor foge words next!
A video on the Dragon Warriors and other little known Chaos marines would be awesome.
