Warhammer 40k Arks of Omen is a new Games Workshop book series that promises to shake up the ever-evolving narrative of Warhammer 40k in 2023. It’ll introduce fresh plot developments, brand new main characters, and a whole new game mode for spaceship boarding. As we await the first Arks of Omen releases, here’s everything we know about the next big thing in 40k
Vashtorr, demigod of technology and creation formed from the inventive personality of life making new things in the same way that Khorne was created from war and spilling blood. In order to achieve his goals of godhood, Vashtorr shares some information with Abaddon about something related to the prophecy that will alter the course of the war and fundamentally change the Imperium of Man.
Abaddon and Vashtorr believe a rapid simultaneous strike at all the locations where artifacts are rumored to be hidden that will enable them to achieve their goals before the Imperium even realises what’s happening. In order to facilitate this Vashtorr creates the Arks of Omen.
The Arks of Omen are weaponised Space Hulks, imbued with daemonic power, armed with arcane and deadly weaponry and outfitted with a captive Warp Portal. - Zábava

Great sponsor ad, but what was with that cat in the corner looking like it's welcoming some motherfuckers to the rice fields? Is it something from Bricky's streams?
Ok his name is Abaddon and pronounced Ab-add on
not pronounced aby-don
Abadon , say ab-ad-on
You know, like the mythological demon.
Imagine like a daemon stopping mid rampage and being like "I'd like to thank the sponsor of this massacre, Vashtorr-"
"For only 900 souls you too can harness the might of a demon engine! Act now and they'll throw in a complimentary shrieking battleaxe!"
I can think of at least two gods that would totally support that. And you could probably rope Nurgle into doing it for the lols.
Omfg, Vashtorr is the chaos god of capitalism...
@@plaguerat5911 only 900 souls and a free axe world eaters must be repeat customers
And you two can get your own soul smashed into a daemon engine with 10% off by using my special code: Vashbash.
And now for our second subscription, audible. My favorite book right now is: *noise marine screaming*
Abaddon: just to be clear, who are we declaring war on?
Vashtorr: yes
Abaddon: ok just wanted to clarify, LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Pretty much
Chaos space marine Gary Oldaman comes out of the shadows " EVERYONE!!!!!"
"ooooOOOOOH LETS GET READY TO RUMBLEEEEEEE !"
It helps his plan, he wants to make a warp-rift to Terra (his 'crimson path'), by doing random war he will hopefully get the thing to work properly.
Vashtorr does more in one book then the four chaos gods do in 40 years of irl 40k lore.
Because the gods are too indulgent on their own folly.
Gods on warhammer fantasy are proactive than their warhammer 4k counterpart. But there are reasons why. Simply the power level of gods on 40k is ridiculous
@@nutsostoik6231 that and they won, 40k chaos gods right now are just after each other, no real threat can come to them, emps was last OG to try and he is fucking dead. To the gods they can sit around and war with each until the galaxy burns up, they already won, no more eldar, no more old ones, no more big E, no more C'tan, only each other. Vashtorr on other hand is sick of this shit, he is a god of creation, he seeks to build not sit around and do nothing, he wants the game to end or get the gods off their asses and finally get moving.
@@Fourtytwo4242 they’re chasing each other in circles is the problem. They want power but don’t want to let their guard down to the others, so it’s just a lot of back and forth and a lot more posturing. Vashtor would truly shake things up if he ascended because he’d kick everyone into action like they’re already doing in the Material Plane, he’s the industrial arms dealer of the Chaos Realms and if he becomes his own God then the other Gods just probably lost any leverage they had on the other.
@@Fourtytwo4242 I read a theory that without humanity's emotions the chaos gods would actually WEAKEN - that if Chaos had won during the Horus Heresy, then Chaos would've essentially wiped itself out.
Humanity is the only race "really" susceptible to Chaos and the Chaos gods are fed by emotions - Khorne is fed by warfare, so by fighting you strengthen Khorne. Slaanesh is fed by indulgence, Tzeentch is fed by scheming and plotting, and Nurgle is fed by... something I can't remember.
But these are largely human emotions, so if humanity loses so does Chaos.
Just a theory, but I like it.
Gods of Chaos: "We are the feudal lords of the Warp, all answer to us, all pay tribute to us."
Vashtorr, the Lord of Capitalism: *_"Guns, get your guns here! Only 500 human souls the blaster, 1500 for grafting, and 5000 for body morphing! Orders in bulk get 20% off!"_*
Vashtorr is great as well, because in an Imperium that's slowly starting to move forward again, after ten thousand years of stagnation, having a Chaos entity that feeds from progress, from innovation and development...
_Vashtorr has a vested interest in stimulating technological growth. _*_He gon be bigg._*
Can also blame Cawl for this one, the imperial master innovator
@@chaosbringer9007 Vashtorr has GOT to find Cawl intensely interesting. Potential bffs!
He’s gonna take his vashtorr mask off in the end; he was tzeentch the whole time.
@@Kropothead Potential Professor X/Magneto relationship.
Honestly, kind of disappointed that Ravenor and Ziegmund Molloch weren't like Professor X and Magneto. Would have completed Ravenor's Professor X shtick.
True, true. _This is Vashtorr speaking. Tell the Alpha Legionnaires among my servants that they need to trick the Machine Cult into excavating the ruins of Magma City and rebuilding the Akashic Reader._
I hope that Cogs of Vashtorr sticks around in the rules permanently, but I'll believe it when I see it.
They were talking about vashtor's contracts and jocat's quote about warlock pacts came to my head "unlike bank loans, you CAN pay them off and they aren't inherently evil"
Actually the daemons that sign contracts with the Soulforge get their debts extended every time they fail at their deadlines making them slaves to the forge for all eternity. No daemon has been able to fully pay their debt.
Contracts that they sign in Baator aka The Nine Hells are less morally reprehensible, than your average bank loans.
Vashtor: Just remember to get me those 900 souls by the end of the year or YOU’RE FIRED!!!
I love how Vashtorr is basically the Chaos god of Capitalism.
@@Volvith god of capitalusm and military-industrial complex
"Fulgrim is doing that because Fulgrim is a shithead"
Best way to describe Fulgrim doing literally anything
As Bricky explained how Abby is having monumental workplace problems, I couldn't help but imagine it as a chaos version of big Bobby G's Ultradepression facing the decaying state of the Imperium, with the Imperial cult, chronostrife and all that shit.
In the grimdark future, corporative organizational hurdles are still very present
Corporative hurdles are the most grim dark thing to exist
i love how this entire ark of omen can be sumarised as Abbadon and his new best friend throw hands with the entire galaxy at the same time.
Yes. _"best friend."_
Vashtorr: "I shall work with any Chaos Gods and traitor legions as long as I can innovate the technology of the Materium."
Iron Warriors and Malice the 5th Chaos God enter the chat.
Making the dark mech/iron warriors team up with Malice would be very interesting
thats literally the opposite of malice ...
Malice is lie-fake the Great Horned Rat yes-yes will rise again
@@cigar_goblin4849 pls dont blow up my moon
Malice!!!!
I just imagine Vashtorr talking in some sort of “I’ve been smoking for 40 years” voice all, “look, kid. this ain’t an ork establishment I’m running here. the lever does what it says it does. the button does what it says it does. the contract does what it says it does. just sign the damn thing and let’s get on with our lives.”
EDIT: Also, I think we're about to get a Perturabo reveal. GW has to reconcile Perturabo's demon primarch status with his resentment of the Chaos Gods, and this seems to be their out. I personally have my money for Book 4 on Perturabo. It'll make a neat pattern of new chaos-demon primarch-new chaos-demon primarch.
EDIT EDIT: Should have finished the episode first.
I still think it's going to be Perturabo. It surely has to be. Surely.
I want Purtarabo in Primarch sized Dreadnaught armour due to the Fulgrims ascension after trying to use him as a sacrifice and has armoured himself so much hes just confused to be a deamon primarch because of his armour and life support systems
There's a snippet of his voice in one of the trailers...it's more than a little disturbing 😳
@@TikkiEXX Which trailer? I'm looking through all the 'Arks of Omen' trailers and can't seem to find the snippet you mentioned.
@@fernhausluv44 I think they're getting confused with Vashtorr
Chaos God of honesty, engineering, and war machines.
We finally have a judge to sit upon a throne and slam down the gavel when things are unright
Be better if he was the god of curiosity/Innovation and ambition. You still get the three you mentioned but it allows for a lot more fun.
Khornes already Justice and Honesty. He'll never backstab you. Just frontstab you in the face. Until your face stops resembling a face.
Can we just acknowledge this dude is basically the Machine God? From his plane to his business model to what he does to other Demons and Souls this guy is just the Chaos version of everything the Mechanicus believe in.
@@haroldsandahl6408 thats tzeentch
@@sugargay7168 no Tzeentch is the god of magic and planning.
I think one reason why Vashtorr's introduction into the setting has been received so well is that he fits right in and helps flesh out some old lore dating back to the Chaos Deamons codex from 4th edition, that being the Forge of Souls.
In that lore, the Forge of Souls is a separate realm of Chaos, located in the Formless Wastes. The Wastes themselves is the vast area surrounding the domains of the 4 Chaos Gods which has not been claimed by them. The description of the deamonic forge realm, and how it operates is very similar to Bricky's description with a few additions.
First off, the 4th ed codex mentions the Forge of Souls is operated by the "Deamon Forgemasters of Chaos", who are describes as being blind, their bodies are constantly changing, and they are hard at work making stuff. I can see GW simply stating that these guys are the acolytes and apprentices of Vashtorr as it was never stated who the head Forgemaster was much less having one.
Secondly, it was stated that the forge gets some of its mechanical components from the wrecks of Tanks, Titans, and other engines of war from the Materium that have been previously "touched by Chaos", will eventually get pulled from realspace via any major warpstorm, find its way into the Ash Plains just outside of the Forges like some Cosmic flotsam being dragged by currents to some distant shore. I find the concept of wrecked Chaos tainted war machines being slowly pulled into the warp to be reforged as various Deamon Engines such as Soul Grinders very interesting, though I suppose shouldn't think too hard on how that would actually work. I'll just say Warp Fuckery makes it happen.
Oh and speaking of Soul Grinders and ash plains, this leads to the coolest part and explains more about those deamon contracts. So apparently there is constant battle in the Ashen plains by a ton of deamons who are waiting for their turn to become a Soul Grinder or some other monstrosity. (Demonic cue lines are a bitch) According to the old lore, a deamon must sign what's called "The Oaths of the Iron Pact". These are 3 oaths a deamon must swear by in order to get their new Shiny and Chrome body that can operate in the real world for decades or even centuries without a constant supply of warp energy to sustain it. (Hence the massive cue line to get it).
First oath is all souls reaped by a soul grinder is channeled into the soul furnaces as fuel. (This seems to have been changed slightly to a set number of souls with the new lore.)
The second oath is that all machines destroyed by the claws of a soul grinder is offered to the forge. (Again, I'll just say warp fuckery on how this would actually work and move on)
The third Oath and most frightening one of them all before a new soul grinder is released back to its patron god is that if the Forge of Souls is attacked by one or more of the armies of the Chaos Gods, they will come to defense of the forge, regardless of the Deamon's previous allegiances. (This is another reason why the big 4 don't fuck with Vashtorr)
Enlightening, thank you
Nice lore tidbits, agreed that he fits very well with established lore.
Doesn't khorn have his own forges by his throne tho? Or is the fact that the other three will jump his ass if he screws with the soul forges/vashtor a good enough reason to why he doesn't mess with him?
@@elishafollet5347 Sorry it took me so long to respond, but you are correct. Khorne's Realm does contain massive deamon forges that manufacture various close combat weapons, (such as axes and swords) armor, and the components for Korne's Deamon engines. Note: I said components for Korne's deamon engines, and not the engines themselves. They are built elsewhere, presumably at the Forge of Souls.
I believe that the Deamon armies of the 4 Chaos gods do manufacture their own "basic" weapons, armor, and tools within their own respective realms. You look at what a specific Deamon is equipped with, and it will seem to reflect the nature of both the realm and the god it serves. It doesn't make sense if this wasn't the case.
Where Vashtorr seems to come into play is the fact the 4 Gods represents Specific primal concepts seems to limit the sophistication of the weapons of war each God can create on their own. They would need some... technical assistance outside their own sphere of control to help design and create better weapons, armor, and war machines in an attempt to one up their fellow gods.
Vashtorr, who seems to represent the concept of innovation without restraint or morals, fits the bill perfectly. I mentioned earlier where the forge of souls gets its mechanical resources from, but I believe that the Forge of Souls receives the warped based deamonic resources it needs to continue building from the 4 realms of Chaos in the form of "tribute" or "gifts" as a way of buying Vashtorr's services.
TLDR version to answer your question, Vashtorr can build bigger and better weapons than the 4 chaos gods can do on their own and so each one will try to keep on Vashtorr's good side or else or Vashtorr will stop building them thier cool toys. The reason why one God hasn't just claimed Vashtorr as its own is that the other 3 would band together and beat the crap out of said god. Vastorr cannot rise up against the other Chao Gods (yet), is that he doesn't have the power or resources to fight on their level. Thus a equilibrium of a sort is created and the Great Game continues....
I hope this helps.
@@rowanerickson129 You're welcome.
with the lion being teased to wake up from his nap soon i'd love to see vashtorr eventually become an actual chaos god
What book was that teased in?
@@deadlyydude5522 I believe it's Arks of Omen: Angron
@@deadlyydude5522 the prophecy also teases it. As it talks about noble knight on kneeling on the battlefield. If your curious Valrak has some recent rumor and speculation videos on it.
If the great horned rat can become one in AOS then vashtorr certainly can here, though I doubt since he's so new
@@radicalgremlin6440 tinfoil hat valrak
I really hope it turns out that Perturabo turns out to be a demon prince of Vashtor, and the iron warriors along with the dark mechanicum could act as subfactions for that force, ala the dark Eldar cults cabals and covens operate. You'd have the iron warriors astartes, dark mechanicum tech preists and their creations and the forge feinds of vashtor, which would help give the iron warriors a more distinct identity as chaos astartes as well as reduce the needed unit load to add dark mech and provide an interestingly varied force
I don't even play the game and I hope this happens. Vashtorr fills a hole I don't think anyone fully realized 40K had until now.
That's such a cool idea, I'm sure it won't happen XD
DID YOU SAY PRIMARIS LIEUTENANT? I HEARD PRIMARIS LIETENANT.
Shhhh.... no spoliers
That would mean that he is essentially enslaved to Vashtorr's will, and that was his big problem with his brothers that became Daemon Primarchs. But I think he might take a page out of Vashtorr's book and make himself into a Daemon Primarch using pure warp energy.
The fact that Vashtorr is the most ungodly honest warp entity, it wouldn't be a surprise if he becomes the 5th chaos God, but all this sounds like is another build up to the Horus Heresy but on the Chaos' side
The Abbadon aberration/abolishment
5:45 it looks like bricky is holding the glass in a unique fashion
Hi, Skaven fan here, GHR kinda schmooved his way into Slaanesh's spot after he was sealed by the elves during End Times. The other gods absolutely do not respect GHR because he cheated his way into Slaanesh's spot while she was having bondage time with Techlis
Wait what? The skaven guy became a chaos god?
@@pifilixxiv3192 he always was, but yeah he cheated his way into Slaanesh's spot to become a major chaos god. As well he technically deserves, he has way more worshippers than any other god.
@@beowylfen Ohh right skaven being dime a dozen... Huh, coolio
@@pifilixxiv3192 yeah! His domain is Ruin
@@beowylfen One way I heard it said, is GHR is all the bad parts of the other chaos gods without any of the good parts. War without honor, death without rebirth, selfishness without pleasure, schemes without knowledge
Tonite on Ridiculous Gear: Bricky advertises Manscaped to Vashtorr which is a lost cause as Vashtorr has no balls but instead has a plethora of wires where his scrote should be. DK attempts to feed a Maulerfiend whom he calls ''Mr Snuffles'' and Shy takes a particular interest in the Arks of Omen which might bring her one tiny step closer to world domination
This manscaped ad makes me think that this is no longer a joke, but a prophecy.
Babe wake up, new Ridiculous Gear comment just dropped
@@lexyinspace lol cheers man
Vashtorr may not have balls, but he has a pair of 500kg brass ball bearings. GW unfortunately deleted them from his stat sheet since they didn't fit on the tray.
Manscape didnt say it had to be your balls. I bet they have a stash
You know, an episode of unaligned warp stuff would be wonderful. Like, other than Vashtorr, unaligned warp entities are everywhere in 40k in side stories and then like there is Balakor and his whole deal. Would be sick
Furies are probably my favorite unaligned warp creature. Even though they're literally the catfish of the warp lol
Well about that says a voice from the future
Aligning with Vashtorr could also make him an enemy of all four chaos gods. So although the deal may be good and Vashtorr may be honest, the other gods may not appreciate this development and seek to ban together and kill Abaddon
Next best is perturabo being the "```Demon```" primarchs of vashtorr
@@pifilixxiv3192 Plz god no Perty becoming a Daemon is so against his character, at best I could see them being uneasy allies.
@@andythesaladgod4578 thats why i put the fat quotation marks, since at best i can imagine him being more an ascendant of the forge of souls or like, a "chosen" by voshtarr to rrescue him from being killed by the wound
@@andythesaladgod4578 like being a "daemon primarch" in name only, while in reality being just basically a necron with his body turnt to metal and soul stuck in a body of metal
like, just using the term "daemon promarch" of pragmatic reasons, as to get the rest of the imperium to stay out of his fuckin way
Vashtorr would most likely be the chaos god I would follow, no tricks, no lying, no pointless schemes, just simple "here the contract, get shit done you get power, if you fuck up then your my slave." simple, easy, straight up, I like that, if your honest with me then I be happy to serve.
If Angron's ark and fleet aren't commanded directly by Lotara Sarrin the Conqueror I'm gonna riot.
At that point gimme her just being the female equivalent of the betrayer, but titled "the captain"
I believe she’s like grafted to the ship Davey Jones style
GW should just make her a valkia 2.0 or something similar
Soo... Glad that you didn't have to riot? ;)
Farsight: this is commander Farsight of the Tau. Depart enclave space immediately or prepare to be fired upon.

Super hyped for Vashtorr. Also was awesome to get to meet Bricky at LVO! Super nice guy! Taller than I expected!

was his forehead bigger or smaller in person
@@imperialguardsman5726 truly a 5head
So what you're saying is...he wasn't just a little guy?
today's thumbnail is absolutely insane. the composition, the details on vashtorr, the design elements...
I'm honestly disappointed, not a single joke about ABADDON teaming up with an ARMS dealer, smh
Fun fact, the one Ark Dante and the Blood Angels assault was found to be dead. Chaos marines found dead by blade and bolt rounds, traces of bio weapons.
Guessing the Death Guard did it.
I heard it was the Legion of the Damned because there was a “sulphpourus smell”….like fire and brimstone, Damned Legionnaires….idk
This all came from Lexicanum though so idk how accurate it is
Some of the blade marks were done by something bigger than what a space marine would use.
@@alexyoblick ah, okay maybe it was…tyranids….the Rangdan? I can see my info is mixed up
I subscribe to the watchers in the dark/Lion idea
Vashtorr & his lore seem so badass to me, can’t wait to get his model… and hopefully some darkmech lol
58:46 tbf to Horus, by the time the Siege of Terra was underway, the other legions besides the DG and the IW were falling apart due to their chaos corruption, and iirc he was dying, so the only way he could win at that time was to go for the big guy, shut down the Astronomicon, and let the Imperium fall apart due to interstellar traveling being unavaivable without it. If he had more time/ his brothers didn't fall completely to Chaos, he probably would have taken as much time as necessary before confronting Terra like Abbadon is doing now
True, and although the Imperium is larger now, it was MUCH more formidable and unified in 30k. So it was likely in the same ballpark of difficulty
I would argue if Abby could whip all the Warbands and Deamons into shape and point them in one direction, he would be more dangerous than Horus. Issue is thats really hard to do when the biggest ones either Don want to listen to him, or would only do it for the chance to stab him in his back.
Khorne, Nurgle, Slannesh, Tzeentch, and Vashtorr will become the five on chaos news channels
Don't forget about Malice

@@mikehunt9641 And the joke was missed
I feel like a dark Mechanicum army under Vashtorr would be my favorite thing in the world.
To come back on the idea of one more Chaos God: in Fantasy there were more, but Khorne, Tzeentch, Nurgle and Slaanesh were still the main 4, the Horned Rat, Hashut and the others were mainly mono-race/really niche.
You guys really need to do an episode on the Dark angels/Lion El'jonson.
Definitely, especially since Vashtor is assaulting the Rock for the teleportation device that allows the Rock to travel the galaxy
*Norm Mcdonald voice: 'In the early parts of the new millennium, Chaos decided to go to war. And who did they decide to go to war with? THE GALAXY'
God I can now only imagine Abbadon as a guy who enjoys late Sunday mornings in a nightgown and cap watching warp MSNBC with a cup of coffee. Great episode I love you guys
You could have summed up the whole power struggle with Abaddon as 'remember Belakor......yeah we don't want that to happen again'

Perty is already immortal
@@Ashtor1337 fancy immortality with a cyborg body.
I love Vashtorr’s concept, and doubly so since Daemon Engines are my absolute favorite thing about Chaos. Best concept, most fun.
Well, it took almost seven editions but at long last Abaddon is getting some good writing. I'm honestly amazed at GWs failure to screw this up so far
It's a good sign. Hopefully this means they've learned and are making him a good character like he deserves.
The introduction of the Leagues of Votann - the return of the Squats, in the spirit if not in the details - has me convinced that GW just sticks player feedback in a box for a couple of decades, before coming back to it. They take it seriously once they get around to it, but they have a long-@$$ ping time.
I think vashtorr and perturabo would be bests of friends in the near future
I would lmao if there will be an idiotic plot twist like “Vashtor is Perturabo” or some bs like that.
I feel like if ever their was a God to submit to for Abbadon it would be Vashtor because they seem like kindred spirits
Tzeench has got to hate Vashtorr.
"You're honest."
"Exactly, great right?"
_"I hate you and everything you stand for."_
One of your best episodes in months. Vashtorr is such an excellent new addition to the universe.
Also happy to be hearing more about 'current-day' lore.

we need that Abaddon watching warp news bit as an animated short
that sound like a new episode about characters. those episodes are great. I just wish that we get a new episode about a Battle or major event again soon. like the Cadia episodes or the horus heresy episodes. still this podcast is great and i am happy to hear about new Characters
There's a book in the HH saga that tells how Perturabo went to the Forge of Souls for something to help in his fight against Angron and I believe this is when his legion gets the obliterator virus embeded into them
Perhaps the price of getting the obliterator virus from vashtorr is peter turbos ascension to dæmonhood?
im curious what about be'lakor? he had the same aspirations as vashtorr in being the next chaos god i kinda miss the dude
I think he gets more love in AoS.
Be'lakor is unfortunately confined to being The Chaos Undivided Daemon Prince. He'll probably show up again to fight for Abaddon, could even have some neat interactions with Vashtorr, but like Bile he isn't an important villain. It seems GW is more keen on him being a big deal in Warhammer Fantasy, anyways.
If be lekor returns to 40k he'll absolutely try and be a foil to vastorr which could be interesting
@@RougeMephilesClone yeah I’m guessing GW will have Belakor be a big player whenever the Old World comes out
@@RougeMephilesClone i wont be surprised if or when vashtorr has enough power to ascend to a chaos god is when be'lakor would swoop in and destroy the mcguffin or ruin the ritual or something just out of spite and jealousy
You've got Vashtorr and the Black Legion picking fights with everyone in Warhammer 40k, and then you've got New Phyrexia picking fights with everyone in Magic The Gathering. The timing could not be more impeccable.
Vashtorr pretty much embodies the fans who are sick and tired of the setting not going anywhere/moving in cycles or at a snails pace for decades and actually wants to get the story moving and get EVERYONE involved
19:44 "Part of the crew, part of the ship"
I hope Abaddon in his house robe makes it to a poster
Reminder that this is the first time we've seen an actual chaos 'god' on screen directly messing with real world. And while he's the weakest one he's such a threat he's causing everyone else to mobilize.
Well, him and Abaddon. Vashtor brought the Arks, Abaddon brought the Chaos armies.
DK when the main antagonist is present in the series:😨😵💫😰
Daemon princes still have their will intact.
We even have example of one Prince switching God
How does Abbadon not know of Vashtor if Vashtor is an arms dealer to the Chaos Gods? Wouldn't these two know of each other if they both serve and work with Chaos?
Chaos is not a friendly and unified team. Knowledge and influence is precious and hard to gain. Vashtor is said to very rarely manifest in the real universe and almost never take a direct hand in the mortal side of the Great Game.
Ultimately it is because GW just invented Him, but they have provided us with halfway decent explanations.
@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen You would think Chaos would have a networking convention once a year but no.....
@@LutherMahoney would certainly make Abaddon’s job a lot easier.
@Leon Sprauge Well, they did, but that stopped after one of Nurgles' new plauges broke out.
@@LutherMahoney have you seen the guys? how easy do you think it is getting them to all congregate in some conference center? just a pain in the ass really.
VASHTORR is amazing development! I want to see Bel'akor and Vahtorr meet and see if they work together or against. And DK do you know who Bel'akor is?
I think reading about Bel'akor despises Vashtor really bad.
Fan fic for the Dark Angels vs Vashtorr box:

Oh, never heard of this guys, it will be fun. Hope we will cover Malice one day, because I like that dude so much.
Malice is a great chaos god ^^
He's a new character so it makes sense. I'm hoping since he's Abbadon's new best friend, he will help him look competent.
He is like brand new like less than a month old
Of course you never heard of him he was created this fall. And lore was published this January
YO, THIS IS SOME STYLISH THUMBNAIL. GIVE ARTIST MORE CASH FOR SUCH GOOD SHIT.
YAAAASSS!!! Chaos is Back in The Saddle Baby. Go Abaddon, Go Vashtorr.
Kick ass and Take Names.
I am so down with Vashtorr and this new wave of Chaos. I SO want him to be proper Chaos God 5. That is what I have wanted forever.
SO COOL!
Vashtorr really feels like chaos' version of Cawl to me. Bursts onto the scene and majorly upgrades the strength of their faction with new technology and gear.
I like to think that the soul forges have the chop shop choir music that the workers sing from the robot movie
Vashtorr is a good excuse to kitbash heavily cyberized Daemon models. Like, you have a mix of Daemons from different gods, that have given themselves up to Vashtorr in their quest for power (or, as per Warhammer Fantasy, to get back to the Materium early after having been banished). Cyber limbs, wires/pipes everywhere, etc. Either grafting these parts onto existing Daemon models, or scratch building your own. Just get _really_ creative as to what the Soul Forges would do with regular infantry.
I had an idea of having minor daemons being partially infused into vehicles. Like one being a motorcycle centaur or an insectoid walker
@@pifilixxiv3192 Heck yeah.
I like how Vashtorr looks a Steam-punk Deamon Prince.
Question to everyone isn't Vashtorr the guy Perturabo meets in "slaves to darkness" the guy that gives one of Perturabo's marines the obliterator virus???
I get that reference, but unless Vashtorr has multiple names (very possible with Demons) it isn't the same "guy".
@@Kristian.B.Kristiansen yeah the description was kinda of similar it made me wonder
Sadly it isn't. I thought that soo, but the one in Slaves to Darkness is a Khornate Daemon weirdly enough.
@@TheBlastmeister no it makes sense, the Khornate demon bought the virus from Vashtor.
The second I heard about vashtorr Instantly made me love him and his model. I want more lore and dedicated factions
GW, please give us a _Dark Imperium_ like series on Abaddon already. It's high time you fix what you should've done with his character decades ago. B/
ADB’s Black legion books are really good (and the closest thing we’ve got to an Abaddon Dark Imperium series)
@@lordtallon5610 Yeah, but they aren't from Abaddon's pov like _Dark imperium_ was. We are _told_ Abaddon is great and more than a Regular Chaotic A-hole, but we never really see it or read into his mindset. :/
It has actually been confirmed that a fifth book will be published, and most rumours point to the lion making his return to fix this mess.
The rumor I heard is that 3 books would be following chaos.
3 books will follow Xenos.
and another 3 will follow the Imperium.
@@command_unit7792 GW will make 4 imperium books, 3 for space marines, 1 for the rest
What was that Waiting Animation before the Stream started? All those moving Dials & Switches and rotating Engines and moving Armor Plates? I need to know! So good!
Is it just me or does Vashtorr look like the demonic equivalence of Belisarius Cawl?
Somewhere in a dark corner of the warp that many deny even exists, Malal is absolutely seething.
Well at least more than usual.
So I guess what chaos really don’t want is Vashtorr and Fabius teaming up
Part of the crew part of the ship
Part of the crew part of the ship
Also what if we got iron warriors codex that had dark mechanicum unit as their unique cultist equivalent
I love the Soul Forges.
It's Steampunk Hell.
And it just works.
Bel'kor gonna be pissed because Vashtorr is looking like having a higher probability of ascending then Bel'kor
Bricky, ya done fucked up, now you gotta do Dark Angels too since Vashtor's story will heavily include them, even the release box for him is vs Dark Angels!
I agree, the 1st Legion NEEDS to be revived soon. It doesn’t matter to me that they don’t care about being 100% accurate when discussing the lore, I will chew them out for things that they miss or get wrong.
Love to see an Ark vs the Silent King's flagship as that's the most powerful ship in the universe so far. Also exciting to see Chaos get a new powerful enemy and would love to see him face a Void Dragon Transcendent Shard. Such cool dynamics.
Edit: also the Segmentum Solar has a fleet so large even the 12 ARK's would not be enough to overcome them as they number in the hundreds of thousands of ships and defense monitors.
I don't know much about the Silent Kings flagship, but I imagine it would easily solo an Ark, since they are still relatively ramshackle.
There are way more than 12 Arks on the way though, the first wave alone was 12. The book mentions "dozens" of Arks being produced.
@Johan Stenman yes I figured there will be 30 or more total as Space Hulk arks are still not as good as the Planet Killer, Blackstone fortresses, or Gloriana class ships. However, they are far more powerful than Battleships of the Imperial Navy and Ork rocks. Just want to see how durable they are. Maybe a smaller ship like an Overlords command vessel.
@Johan Stenman as far as his capital ship it's stated that it's the most powerful ship they have currently which means better then the World Engine which fought fleets and chapters of Astartes so far beyond a Space Hulk but would be a cool showcase of Necrons power against something other then the Imperium and Tyranids.
As a Chaos boy, I love Vashtorr and what he brings. OH! You guys should have Kirioth on to do an episode on Daemon Engines! If Bricky will need a break that is.
I can't believe you didn't make a "just a lil chaos/god" joke
Vashtorr - God Of Nerd Rage
I like this Deamon more then others no tricks just Math and pure death reminds me of the Tech priest and dark tech priest rather then desire murder getting sick and a trickster
Perterabo: welcome to the club, nephew lol
The unknown final book is probably about either Perturabo or Huron "Luggy" Blackheart
Do you think the kneeling weeping knight in the vision is the lion?
Arks of Omen consist of 5 different books. Part 4 is something xenos and part 5 seems to be secrert. A sixed mini-part will come in a white dwarf in the future. I hope, that part 5 brings back the lion to 40k. He could be the knight from abbys vision.
it'd make sense, too, because GW needs to keep that balance between chaos and the imperium, so counteract abaddon's new power, they're going to bring back a primarch, my guess is that something the xenos do tip off the watchers in the dark that it's time to bring back the Lion
@@imperialguardsman5726 and what better primarch than the one who cannot be corrupted
Although to be fair i worry about them making him fall to vaashtor seeing the crying tears of cinder thing
@@marneuscalgar4361 i mean
Lion
the guy who a deamon of tzeentch who could look into infinite possibilities of everything he could say and none of them had him even consider his words
and him falling to not even a proper god?
the best i see vaashtor doing is like
vaashtor doing *something* that hurts the Lion or something that makes him cry tears of brass, maybe some sort of like pseudo-disease?
This has gotta be my favorite addition to the lore in a while. The forge of souls is soooo cool
Abadon: So, Vashtorr, who do you want to declare war to ?
Vashtorr: Yes.
Finally, some non-boring Chaos lore. This honestly bumped up Chaos in my ranking, at least it's not at the rock bottom anymore
That was a cool story from a vet. I'm very surprised adric has flags before necron merch though.
Honestly, wouldn't be surprised if they connected Perty to Vashtorr. We heard that he ascended to become a Daemon Primarch, which never sat right with me personally, but him being allied with Vashtorr would be kinda nice
If Farsight actually is the one on the forth book. I'm curious if the Dawn Blade might be the object they're looking for. If not then maybe one of the other relics they found recently.
CADIA STANDS !!!!!
This guy loves the T'au and the Squats! Also, why do I fell like Perturabo will like him?
14:25 today on WBN (Warp Broadcasting Network) Herald World Claimer, Haarken of the Apocalypse helps Abaddon do his taxes
I just realized that we technically have 4 chaos demigods. Malice, Belakor, the Great Horned Rat, and now Vashtorr.
The Lady of the Lake or so of(or from?) the Bretons should be a Chaos(Demi) God too.
@@germanmandalorian3514 She's an elf. But there are plenty of lesser chaos gods in warhammer fantasy. The Great Rat as mentioned above, The Great Beast, Hashut, Necoho, Zuvassin and more.
