      Wanna know something amazing. In the modern age with the advancement of AI at rapid pace, we are also developing all the components to do the same exact sort of procedures as some of the augmentations in warhammer. We, as humanity, in various instances, have devloped methodology for manipulation of mammals based on electrical nodes making direct connection to parts of the brain. Hmm sounds familiar. Y'know what we also just got really really really good at, connecting human nerve tissue to implanted bits that can control robotics. we are rapidly approaching 40k actuality XD

    the mechanicus is one of the most interesting factions of the 40k universe, no artwork or models can really demonstrate just how absurdly augmented they are and in a world of incredibly human factions, the mechanicus stick out as like the exact opposite of the spectrum, and its perhaps ironic they're the representatives to some of the most remote and rural worlds out there when it comes to knight world and other feudal societies where the mechanicus recruits their knights and titan crews

    I love that scene from the Fall of Cadia shorts. Where Belisarius Cawl is talking with the Necron lord on how to get the blackstone pylons working again. You would think an Adeptus Mechanicus like Cawl would have some admiration for a necron lord. He didn't. He was still willing to listen out of desperation though. Lol

    The skitari sound like a variation of the titans from the dune series, different, but similar, these whom were once ppl had their brains removed and put in vats of fluid, which made it to where they could not die, only be killed. And they had all sorts of different forms the brain vat could be put in, 100 story military walker forms, space ship forms, generally when they used a regular human form it was to vivesec live humans. Anyone who likes sci fi and likes to read I highly recommend the dune series. It took me several years to finish, I believe its 18 books, when herbert the elder died he actually left manuscripts and herbert the younger finished the series. And did an amazing job. They made a movie, which is 1/4 of the 1'st book. Basically. I'm definitely hooked on warhammer lore but to anyone who reads, read dune, the whole thing.

      @crhuskey Před 4 lety +5

      To be completely honest, I have been watching less for that exact reason. I'm definitely not trying to throw shade at OMS, but there are several other 40k channels that
      seem to put in a lot more effort.
      I mean, check up on pronunciation and flow pre/post editing and get rid of the sentences that repeat 5 times. There are times when they say something and then its repeated one sentence later. It is either a mistake or artificial lengthening. Either way, it's not a good look and when its combined with awkward mispronunciation and a topic that they have covered themselves 5 times already, it is bound to take a toll on views/engagement.
      I believe in you OMS. You can do better.
