You know there has to be _at least_ one time that an inquisitorial chain of authority has gotten twisted into a loop. It makes me imagine a situation where, like 50 years after submitting some kind of request for authorization, some poor inquisitor gets it put on his desk and it's his own requisition.
That would be hilarious.
That would be bureaucracy, elevated to levels beyond even what the Supreme Soviet Council and the US Senate combined could even dream of.
That would be the Administratum's day to day, although I could see a fast rising inquisitor getting his own very delayed reports after a promotion (Inquisitors don't file requisition requests, they flash an Inquisitorial rosette)
Stamp it approved.
That'd be hilarious, and I'm sure it happened many times in w40k. Not a if, but a when.
"I, Inquisitor Delatius, commend the 3rd company of the Blood Angels to the sectorial Lord Inquisitor for their actions during the purge of Keb, and ask for them to be given the highest distinction possible."
Sectorial Lord Inquisitor Delatius, 50 years later, looking at the document on his desk that went through 37 layers of administration, three subsectors, rebounced through 94 adepts and was lost for two dozen years in a cabinet somewhere: "Approved."
The Emperor's most holy Inquisition has never failed or ever made any mistakes. If they ever had, surely there would be records of it somewhere? As such a thing does not exist you best return to your duties, citizen. -Guardsman tasked with overseeing a group of 5th generation indentured servants from Karthargo.
:Incoming transmission from Vraks:
The fact that the empire is still here is proof that the inquisition works.
@@ivanthemadvandal8435 You mean "Badab"?
Indentured servitude is voluntary. Those were slaves.
Not according to the Inquisition!
That's one thing I love about the eisenhorn trilogy. The change he undergoes is so subtle and gradual that you don't even realize it.
Yeah, until he’s regularly hanging out with demons like it’s petting a dog, lol.
Which the one inquisitor he hunted down that thought he was a heretic kinda showed what was come to Gregor.
@@darthbrooks4933 it doesn't really hit home how far he's Fallen until he sees the way his old comrades react after he uses an injured Junior Inquisitor as a demon host to destroy an enemy War engine.
That had just become normal to him then he sees the looks of stunned horror.
I felt that same realization that the character has while I was reading the book.
It's just a masterful work of fiction
Probably my favorite 40k related character
@@VictorianTimeTraveler yup, when Nail was like, “BRUUUUUUHHHHHH”

@@qiushuang239 he is one of the if not the best member the Xenos branch that they ever had, now if only they could lead the swarm into the eye of terror/the warp instead of into ork land then we’d really be in great shape.

@@qiushuang239 To be honest, I am still not sure what to make of Kryptman.
@@qiushuang239 What other options are there? Call for soldiers who'll get there after the planet has been eaten? Evacuate citizens and make the Alien movies look like comedy?
Exterminatus was the only rational option available.

@Survival prepping for normal people bruh war hammer is going the way of anime, I used to have to get into fights at school with kids who thought reading manga gave them the go head to mess with you for some reason now days everyone I know from gang bangers to soccer moms watch some type of anime, The times have changed a lot. These days kids don’t even know what shows like cowboy bebop and trigun are half the time let alone what they did to the west and anime as a whole.
In the classic 40K (pre Girlyman returns) there was one organization with the higher power than the Inquisition, that's the Adeptus Custodes. His Most Holy Custodians have the Magisterium Lex Ultima and can command every institution of the Imperium to do their bidding, even the Inquisition was lower than them. Nowadays Rowboat has the highest authority in the Imperium.
No the custodies had no power over the inquisition unless they were on terra. Their only superior was the emperor himself
Girlyman can't order the Custodies to do anything.
They could, but it would not go anywhere, and said that inquisitor(s) will suffer greatly for wasting Bobby G’s time.
To be fair the Custodians have takin a pounding the past few years in terms of how cool they are. Still look great a shame they are apparently not nearly as good as they once where. (ironically right after they become an army to play)
@@shadowlord1418 Depends on the context really, doesn't it? They operate under the direct command of the Emperor, who decreed that none may get in their way or prevent them from doing their business. If a Custodes told an Inqusitor they needed their help to conduct their business, I'm pretty sure the Inquisition can't say no.
There are a handful of groups that the Inquisition cannot compel. The Adeptus Astronomica, for instance - the group that staffs the Astronomican on Holy Terra - is entirely within their rights to tell the Inquisition to pound sand if they don't feel like allowing an Inquisitor in to have a look. Given that without the Astronomican in good working order, interstellar travel would pretty much come to an end, no one really wants to push that organization very far.
Yes but that individual or even possible that cell of the house might accidentally fall down the stairs…. The dozen rounds in the back are coincidence
@@kingofwolves9536 nasty ork snipers
@@kingofwolves9536 no, it won't. The Adeptus Astronomica operates under the umbrella of the imperial household and as such have close operational ties to the Adeptus Custodes, the singular organisation with a higher authority than the Inquisition.
As such, messing with the Adeptus Astronomica is a very straight and short way to find yourself with a Guardian Spear through your back.
@@kingofwolves9536 Actually no the astronomica have quite the strong ties with the custodes and if I remember correctly they are under the protection of the custodes by decree of the emperor. Tho some insane inquisitor could try to assassinate them but would be stopped by fellow inquisitors before things escalate .
@@draochvar9646 Guardian Spear in the back you say? On Holy Terra you say? The reinforced door to his hideout shattert to pieces? From the outside? *stamps file as "Suicide"* And another case closed.
Arch: "Even the Inquisition is not perfect."
Me: *Turning down my volume just in case*
Don’t forget vraks, the inquisition had a hand at starting that glorious siege
Starting, escalating, mismanaging, almost saving, mismanaging again, escalating again, nearly losing, and concluding.
@@tba113 oh absolutely, and to this day it was the unwavering will and bayonet charging demons of the Kriegsmen that won the siege. Seriously that was my favorite info of the siege of vraks that they literally bayonet charged demons and even pushed them back is absolutely legendary
Three points about the War of the Beast, not in defense of the quality of the books but in defense of some of the lore it provided.
1. Established lore already hinted that if you get enough Waaagh energy Orks get stronger and smarter, so with enough Orks them devolving back into Krork makes sense.
2. Orks being soccer hooligans, them calling these super orks "Prime Orks" as a laugh about the Primarchs fits the tone and tenor of the orks.
3. By the time of the war, and how quickly orks move in comparison to the Imperium, the idea of the Waaagh forming after the assumption that they were eradicated isn't that much of a stretch of credulity and could be good if the writing were at a competent level.
Everything else about the books is batshitarded
yup shame the beast war is beast summed up by tts "saving the imperium from a substantialy sized threat for a time then it was back and there was more of them"
In my mind, Ordo Sicarius was created to keep the Imperium-crushing ego of Cato Sicarius in check.
😂😂😂
38:30 Surprised you didn't mention sanctioned Xenos here. Imagine the looks an Inquisitor must get when they walk into a room with Ork muscle.
Oh my emperor look at the heavy guns on that Orc over there let's call in a exterminatus on that one due to the fact I'm jealous
You mean, the looks they get when they have cat girls.
Pretty sure orks are an absolute rarity in the employ of the Inquisition if not entirely unheard of. Jokaero, kroot or eldar sure but orks are pretty much incompatible with the Inquisition and humanity at large given that they would seed any world they travel to with ork spores not to mention that their lack of intelligence and tendency to solve each and every problem with violence is diametrically opposed to the MO of the Inquisition.
@@angelsofblood9879 using felinids is completely acceptable they are Abhuman, orks on the other hand are anything but ok to see walking around on human planets unless something as powerful as the inquisition allows it. I hate the idea of cat girls in 40k but I at least must respect the decision made that they like beast men, ratlings and ogryns are human and must be utilized, anything else is heresy. Justifying exposing planets to ork spores on the other hand is something I fail to see any good reason for.
@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus These damn radicals are really pushing it these days...
I swear i read somewhere that the Inquisition unearthed a request for help from a planet dealing with a minor Chaos Cult that had been buried for like 6000 years, so they go to deal with it . The thing is, the cult had been long since defeated by that point and the planet had enjoyed 6000 years of peace since then, with basically no one alive even knowing there had ever been a Chaos Cult in the distant past.
The Inquisition decides to play it safe and nails the planet with a Cyclonic Torpedo.
I mean, devils advocate… how do you know the cult didn’t win and that’s the reason for the peace? I haven’t read what you’re talking about so I can’t rule out with 100% certainty the planet wasn’t just sneaky spy Orks.
No one alive knowing that there was once a chaos incursion is highly suspicious.
As much as I love warhammer lore, I don’t fear a day arch switches to another universe.
Arch has the voice acting skills to cover most any universe (and I believe he’d do almost any dam well)
Keep chugging arch, I’m a super fan.
Actually I think he could try to make something on his own. I'd buy that! :)
@@sazin8635 oh he certainly could, especially with a few of his friends to bounce his ideas off of (so that he has a check and balance, to ensure he isn’t relating it to much to an existing ip)
Heresey ! - but this time it sounds acceptable...
I long for the day Arch decides to go into covering historical events the same way he covers 40k lore.
Imagine a series on, say, the War of the Roses or the Napoleonic Wars similar to his Sieg of Vraks or Badab War series.
@@samuelbedsole5089 “it was at this point Napoleon knew, his forces fell short”
Yea I know Napoleon wasn’t actually that short but you know arch would throw in some humor
The tech the Inquisition has is OP and hilarious. It must have been an ork mek secretly under an inquisitors payroll that decided to make a device to teleport someone about to be shot, instead of you know... just stopping the bullet lol
Not sure where you get that impression from because displacement fields are rare but still standard imperial tech that every branch of the imperium has access to. Even high ranking civilians or aristocrats carry those around if they plan on getting shot at.
@@KT-pv3kl Who in the lore outside an inquisitor used a displacement field? Because even among them it was rare. I'm half convinced it was an invention by Sandy Mitchell more then anything.
@@NornQueenKya Aren't cardinal Roseltte some sort of displacement field? Or was that something.
@@woaddragon Think youre referring to field generators (force fields). What I'm talking about literally teleports you nearby, which is absolute hilarious (and ork sounding) tech
As far as displacement fields are concerned they have exited since Rouge Trader.
A thing that I haven't seen in the lore myself but would like to see more of is the idea of a tech radical. From all the lore that I have personally read, radical inquisitors always tend to use chaos, now imagine an inquisitor that is a puritan when it comes to chaos, but then turns around and fans a necron Gauss flayer like a revolver.
Honestly that to me seems like it should be the more common form of a radical. Unlike the warp, tech is for the most part reliable and in most cases doesn't corrupt you. In very fact, if we go back to necrons, it can be used to fight chaos without having to use chaos yourself (like the Cadian Pylons).
Hell it doesn't even have to be xenos tech. You could have a radical inquisitor with a savant who invents new shit, much to the chagrin of tech adepts. I just want to see more examples of such cases in the lore tbh.
There is a radical ordo xenos inquisitor that uses an eldar shuriken cannon
There is a radical sub-faction called the Phaenonites. They basicly empower what you describe.
@@xBeasTBeaR Any sources I can read about them from ?
Tech does corrupt, the Necrons are proof of that. What else are the space marines other than genetic abominations that almost destroyed humanity.
Using xenos tech is pretty common in the Ordo Xenos. Mostly Eldar tech since the layout is similar to human. Ravenor is well know to use wraithbone pendants with his acolytes because of its psychic reactivity.
I'm shocked that Ordo Sicarius was not made for Cato.
No. Not for Cato. BY Cato.
@@physetermacrocephalus2209 I, Cato Sicarius, hereby found the Ordo Sicarius to investigate how I, Cato Sicarius, am so damned awesome.
Cato Sicarius.
Me too ngl
An Inquisitor, a tec priest, and a rogue trader enter a bar.
The priest is memory wiped, the rogue trader was last seen running towards the starport, and the inquisitior was seen smiling walking toward the governor's palace.
And that's just first customer
One could wonder how often Inquisition ivestigates a potential trechery only to discover that a network of informants belongs in fact to the inquisition itself but it was just established by another inquisitor xD
"Wait so you people work for who?" God imagine the confusion and twists
@@pifilixxiv3192 Members killing each other is no uncommon.
Absolute authority: Yes
Absolute power: First founding chapters are still laughing at that.
Let alone the custodes.
Mechanicum “go on, try to arrest me! I dare you meatbag!”
Yes, the politics of power. You may officially have unlimited authority. Step on the right toes enough and accidents can become alarmingly frequent.
when its said only the inquisition has the drive to stop chaos cult and zeno threats before they are a problem i feel a little sad that the great hero of the imperium caiphus cain isnt included as he does tend to use alot of sense with getting rid of problems before they become a issue mainly to his survivability and the planets that get saved usually a added bounus
Alot of Inquistors actually read Cain's Memoirs for insight into the enemy. Cain has more experience with Xenos and the forces of Chaos than most initiate Inquisitors and even gives them pointers from beyond the grave (Inquisitors disguising themselves as rogue traders is too obvious).
@@Makorze “beyond the grave” implies that Cain is dead and according to imperial records Cain is still recorded and will always be recorded as alive in perpetuity and for good reason, saying he is dead is like saying sly marbo is dead.
Ciphas Cain hero of the imperium!!!
@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus but Cain is also listed by the Imperium as being buried with full military honours.
(I just hope he didn't get buried on a planet near Tallarn since a sect of them actually consider Cain to be a prophet if the God-Emperor with one of his holy verses literally being "F*** you demon, I am immune to chaos." XD)
@@Makorze Ciphas Cain really is just alway entertaining! Absolutely amazing stories starring that man.
48:07 The Chaosgate game, the inquisitor just waltzes in there and pretty much says "I'M IN CHARGE NOW".
FYI, as the God-Emperor's most faithful servants, the Inquisition is most definitely above such petty emotions as resentment. Just so you all know.
The celestial lions would disagree with that.
The people ok khartago disagree about that
Or jellousy or petulance. No mention of attacking the space wolves homeworld here citizen. Move along.
@@narkokid looks around, they seem to all be dead. So HOW do they disagree again??
@@stefanoputignano1555 thats fine, another generation racked into their sentence and half the rations will make them recant their complaint, or that gaurdsman stubber pointed in their face.
Yes we need a video on Cain. He's probably my favorite character in 40k.
Agreed wholeheartedly. Ties nicely into this video too as he's kind of "inquisitor-adjacent" heh.
@@Sgt_Glory and it works.
An Imperial commissar and IG regiment should be given to every new inquisitor to use as they see fit.
You know who would have made a great Inquisitor? Columbo. "Ahhh......just one more thing....Exterminatus"
Arch. You know you wanna get in on. That sweet, sweet Battletech lore. It calls to you. It beckons to you, like a swooning maiden, or the open cockpit of an Atlas. Elsewise, I have been on a big Inquisition kick lately. Great content. Much love.
No demons or religion or Nurgle in Battletech tho, so it's not interesting. Just people fighting people for material gain.
I always found it extremely weird that the imperium literally most unilaterally powerful force outside of the high lords, dont have a particular and strict method of recruiting and ensuring good practices. I mean, the marines at least psycho-indoctrinate their apprentices, but I would think that you would want stringent tests and procedures before you allow someone to have the powers of an inquisitor rather than it being ad hoc.
They do, though. It's memes and bad writers that make it out that the inquisition is staffed by incompetents.
There is some degree of centralized authority and rules. It's just that individual inquisitors have considerable freedom to act within those confines plus whatever moral beliefs they hold, and the organizational unions and higher ranking members they work for
Honestly would love to get an Arch series on Goge Van Dire & the age of strife
The Inquisition! The solution and cause of life’s problems!
Yup, they can cure all the imperiums ills. Just need a few..... special torpedoes and even tyranids wont try to fight them.........
Love the Inquisition it's one of my favorite parts of 40K. You have good Inquisitor's like Ravenor and such who want protect humanity and care for their agents. Then you have ones like Kryptman who killed billions to slow the Tyranids and didn't lose a wink of sleep and still wants more destroyed to stop them. And we have everything in-between as well as there interactions with Planetary govenors, Generals, and such who can't tell them no to Astartes who actively tell them to F off if they overstep even if it puts them at risk. Such a cool dynamic and wide array of stories.
Kryptman was a good guy you fool. Protecting a few million at the expense of trillions is the evil option.
@@SomeUnsoberIdiot that's the dumbest statement ever especially after we know the damage caused after the Tyranids returned from the Orc war they where pushed into.
@@SomeUnsoberIdiot also virus bombing dozens of worlds is tens of billions of lives not millions. So your scale is even wrong.
@@eichler721 - If He had been allowed to just Exterminatus a firebreak across the galaxy, he wouldn't have had to go with plan B.#KyrptmanDidNothingWrong
@@SomeUnsoberIdiot The entirety of the Octarius War invalidates any good Kryptman might have done. Because whoever comes out of that will almost certainly be a much larger threat than what went in.
Hector Rex is an example of an inquisitor with access to the Grey Knights. But in his case, it's not just seniority. The lord inquisitor is in-fact everything just short of a proper Grey Knight captain himself. I was curious how he could take on the bloodthirster An'ggrath, until I read his background and physical+mental enhancement. So I'd imagine any particularly noteworthy inquisitor usually has some kind of background-boon like that.
New subscriber, found the channel while looking for lore videos and it seems my quest is over. Had them on all day while painting up another Kill Team, and now want more models as you have so many videos, 👍
Archs lore is the best lore

I've finally gotten into collecting minis! My army of choice is the good ol' Imperial Guard. First time I even went into a Game store too. I'm just waiting to get more space before building them and I'm thinking about getting a 3D printer to make my own, but I'm not really sure if that's frowned on or not and I have the computer skills of Otto Von Bismarck after a three day whiskey binge.
Dont buy. Build.
Building a 3d printer isnt worth it anymore. You get a lot for your money these days. Building a resin printer (which is basically nessecary for mini printing) is also a big hassle, and they are very affordable.
Does anyone else watch these videos to fall asleep to yet dread the song at the end because it’s so loud and will wake you up 🤷🏻♀️
Yes
Cain's inquistion adjacent shenanigans are a long read, but generally entertaining.
Love the videos, thanks for doing what you do
I’m been waiting for this for a while
Hopefully we’ll get other videos on the branches and ideologies
This was fucking awesome.
This is what you excel at. In depth analysis of organizations people and events. With a little wit and sarcasm mixed in.
I thoroughly enjoyed this.
Thank you.
When you do videos of Caine and ravenor and Eisenhorn, I would advise to humanize them a little.
Eisenhorn and ravenor make incredible sacrifices in service of mankind. Caine as well can be humanized. The galaxies bravest and most capable survivalist. He tries to avoid dangerous situations and keeps getting into them regardless.
Eisenhorn could have disappeared into the imperium many times over. Letting someone else deal with the terrifying horrors of the galaxy. But that doesn’t happen. This is a almost superhuman dedication to duty even after everything he has been through. Torturered, crippled both physically and mentally, loosing friends and loved ones again and again. These are psychopathic levels of drive and determination.
The same can be said for ravenor. The human tin box.
I lost my body???
Fuck it. I’m gonna do my duty regardless.
As far as Caine is concerned. Remember that Caine is hilarious and also he is not a coward he is a survivor. He doesn’t run from danger, he doesn’t panic. He always does what would maximize his chances of survival.
Panicking and running from danger is in most cases fatal. That’s why Caine almost never does it.
These are of course fictional characters but authors usually put their fears and contempt in their villains, and their aspirations and ideals in their heroes.
Mention and acknowledge Eisenhorns fortitude and courage, ravenors genius and resilience, and even Caines cunning.
I was wondering when you would get to the inquisition, glad you finally got to it
Arch is by far my favourite lore youtuber. The way he covers things concisely yet with such personality really helps me stay invested in the lore and video. I find him the funniest, the most interesting and i always find myself wishing Arch would cover whatever new lore im curious about such as league of legends lore or Hunt showdown lore as i find other youtubers just can't hold my attention as well or make it as interesting. Definitely one of my favourite youtubers of all time im praying he somehow magically finds an interest in league lore because no one else has been able to hold my interest in it so far. Thanks for the constant amazing videos Arch they never fail to keep me entertained
You've covered the more radical part of that organisation, along with the chamber militant of the Ordo Xenos (the Deathwatch) the Ordo Malleus (the Grey Knights) and the Order Hereticus (the Sisters of Battle)
2:00 - Even they can't be everywhere at once...also, even they have their bad days.
3:40 - Ah yes, he burned himself out on the golden throne, while giving the Emperor time to deal with the problem of the traitor Warmaster personally. They were made up of loyalist elements of traitor legions.
5:08 - Don't you mean the moon Titan, the planet it's orbiting is Saturn, a gas giant.
10:40 - Ah yes, THAT one.
15:02 - The Age of Apostacy.
18:03 - Greater Good...a concept that's meaningless by itself, it's those with power that decide what the definition of that is.
32:40 - Ideas change with the times... Scotland's secret shame is no exception to that.
38:34 - Ah yes, you've covered that.
45:45 - Especially with the "Months of Shame"...the Space Wolves are certainly hostile towards them. Also the Celestial Lions against "Ork Snipers" on Armageddon.
Funny how I decided to download a 40K mod for Rimworld. Decided to make an Inquisitor character for funzies.
Then this video drops! Weren't you an Vacation Arch?
Love this Arch! Fantastic breakdown, makes me.want to reread the Eisenhorn series 😜
Love this video keep it up Arch
Another great video Arch! Always get excited when I see a new video!
Love Arch lectures, even better long Arch lectures.
Gotta say; this is one of my favorite recent lore videos!
Another great one is the Black Ships episode.
Love your lore videos about ANY warhammer subject!
Making the Emperor proud, Arch
I can see the god emperor using Arch as the primarchs story teller.... if they hadn't been scattered to the four galactic winds.
Cain is a fun series of books. A good human level perspective into the 40k universe imo, for introduction to the setting.
Could a blank become an inquisitor? That would be interesting...
So what you're saying is that their should be an Ordo Primaris aimed directly at countering and eliminating Cawl and his heretical creations?
Perfect work... Thank you Arch!
25:45 The visual here is new to me. I find it fascinatingly horrific. Or horrifically fascinating.
Either way, that is some extra cray cray.
TBF one of the things the inquisition is not allowed to open is the lid to the terminus decree, that falls to the supreme grand master of the grey knights.
Arch should make a Video on the Horus Heresy one day.
Absolute power? Laughs in Binaric...
Hearing you mentioning the meer mention badab makes me remember how much I can’t wait to hear about your eventual video for Huron black heart and the red corsairs also great video about your current employment 😉

No he's an adeptus Custodes in mortal form.
@@brianjohnson5272 i feel he'd be a emperors children onahole, tho add ntr and I think Arch would be happy.
I hope Arch one day considers doing lore videos for the Chronicles of Darkness setting. The worldbuilding is interesting and flavorful, it would be great to hear his bardic retelling of it.
He already has a couple on different vampire clans from back when Bloodlines 2 was being hyped.
@@mpnuorva That is World of Darkness, games like Vampire: The Masquerade, Werewolf: The Apocalypse and Mage:The Ascension.
Chronicles of Darkness is also published by Onyx Path, but has far different lore and mechanics. It has completely reimagined games like Vampire:The Requiem, Werewolf: The Forsaken and Mage: The Awakening. But it also has many exclusive ones like Geist: The Sin Eaters, Deviant: The Renegades and Promethean: The Created. The settings are very different from WoD and the mechanics are a lot cleaner, they stand on their own despite the quality that WoD already had.
Praise our Grand Inquisitor and Primarch Arch of the Gatekeepers Legion!! May the Emperor be with us !
"Dabbling in things best left undabbled."
Well said.
Be careful Arch! If you don't say enough good things about them Surely an Inquisitor will show up at your door
Excellent introduction into the universe of the Inquisition!
This is quite informative and enlightening. I'm sure none of us will be shot for learning these things.
Well having watched arches stuff more or less from day one , that was bloody complicated , im still confused lol 😆
All Doge Vandire wanted was some Sororita Feet Pics
He did nothing wrong, he was looking up on the net for feats of the loyal astartes...
Wiki FEATS
and confused it with

It was then he was corrupted...
Now this is a topic worthy of 80 mn's worth of Arch smug rambling. I'm going to make myself a cup of coffee and let our boy do his magic.
(Good to have you back mate)
Yay! My favorite faction in 40k! I love writing Inquisition my ongoing fanfic series Secret War revolves around the most especially my favorite 40k setting the P&P RPG Dark Heresy. Daaamn I love the fluff rising from the Calixis Sector! The Slaught, the Halo Devices (although, the fluff of them were a bit frigged by the Rogue Trader game that gave away too much of the mystery of them but in my continuity I made them different) Also, the Eisenhorn trilogy and Ravenor trilogy made me love the Inquisition even more. The nuance, the different factions and the ideologies. Just awesome.
MAN those custom images sheesh! SO DAMN GOOD
Thanks for this!
Jesus, that Astartes at 19:30 ate his veggies when he was young dudes primarch sized.
Does anyone else miss the background music from Arch's Very early work? (Total War Warhammer faction speculation)
Ooo can't wait for you to cover Ciaphis Cain. My favorite 40k books.
Best part of the week :D
Great video
Aaaahhh, the Imperium of Man. Where you're guilty. That's it. You're just guilty.
goodness did i love the inquisitor table top game with their large modles and multiple special rules.
Well youtube switched off channel notifications again, guess I will have to listen tonight and then again tomorrow
Despite you never telling me of uploads by creators you don't like CZcams, I will continue to check on Inquisitor Arch's lectures nonetheless!!
To be honest when he said something illegal protected by a large group of the population I thought he was going to say infanticide with the shout your abortion people
"You have been brought before the conclave to justify your actions!"
