NOBODY EXPECTS THE IMPERIAL INQUISITION!
THEIR CHIEF WEAPON IS SURPRISE AND FEAR AND RUTHLESS EFFICIENCY AND A FANATICAL DEVOTION TO THE GOD EMEPEROR
anothga ahahahaha
but it's "suspects the inquisition
So... that means that Emps is in The Comfy Chair! Gotta love Mel Brooks and Monty Python references in the same comment stream.
anothga, ahhh. There you are.... =][=
=][= we will be monitoring the comments. You have nothing to fear if you're not a heretic or traitor. Enjoy the video.
JohnnyNismo STATE YOUR ORDER! =][=
I might be infected by chaos.....but no need to worry I have it under control
You have earned your weight in toasters for this
That moment when you realize the inquisition are essentially the secret police
The *necessary* secret police.
The Inquisition to the Rogue Traders:
A bunch of buzzkills who ruin our fun whenever we cross paths. Though if you make friends with them, you have a buddy who can exterminatus and make it perfectly legal and win win for all!
...
Well, maybe except the planet... and the jerk who was coincidentally on that planet who was there because he wouldn't give back my mixtape...
HERESY! HERESY EVERYWHERE!
I like this cogboy! Usually, when they've got that much cybernetics, they just screech at you in binary while you nervously look around to see if you unwittingly just committed some kind of tech heresy by pushing a button before praying or offering thanks to the machine spirit or it is just some warpy shit going down and time to apply firepower until the problem is solved. His voice module sounds so human too… it is actually nice. He's a nice cogboy that Remleiz.
Forgot Ordo Draigo.
They bring the hams!
No Ordo Sandpaperus Cigarettus? Dominique would be sad.
I HAVE COME TO VANQUISH ALL DAEMONS AND LOW QUALITY RAZORS IN THIS REALM!!!
YOU LOOK LIKE A STAR FRUIT!!!
I WILL AVENGE YOU JANUUUUUUS!
Not knowing what is the inquisition is heresy
"Knowing" what is the inquisition is treason.
claiming ignorance of the inquisition is blasphemy.
There's no winning with you Inquisiton types, eh?
Feigning ignorance of all but the Emperor is a good survival strategy.
10,000 years of unchecked inquisitorial exterminatus on who knows how many planets... and the tangible benefits are what exactly?
I sort of hope the emperor pulls a “Bruva” someday and just REALLY lays into the inquisition.
the tangible benefit is that the imperium still stands.
commie416 it stands because of the Imperial Guard, Space marines, mechanicus, astropaths, navigators, Ministurom and Ecleisarchy.
The inquisition's only gain lorewise is the Grey knights chapter.
Inquisitors are a net loss for the Imperium.
Someone has to do the dirty work. They're harsh, but necessary. Like the saying goes,
"Every toolbox needs a hammer". Which is why we have the Order Malleus.
Order Nodificatus, Present!
Leon Valenzuela u mean Nodificatus
Manuel Barro tnx
We will provide the LIIIKES
Just to let you know you talked me into the lore and I finally got some space wolves.
*pops head in* I smell Heresy!
Shall I summon the Deathwatch?
(The dark apostle appears,resplendent in his Daemon skin cloak)
*_Try the Grey Knights,lapdog_*
James.T .Adams *Inquisitorial gasp* Noh! Where's the best chapter when you need them?!
LOL @ 7:52 That woman's facial expression in the picture, you can almost hear what she would be saying; "I'm here to spread the word of the Emperor,,,,,,,and maintain purity,,,,,,,and yeah,,,,,,,but hey,,, let me see that Slaaneshy-gifted member of yours".
The Ordo Maleus 🔥... The sword of the inquisition that struck the imperial world of Typhon Primaris... Epic =][=
*LAUGHS IN BLAMS*
1:34 It is not “Unheard of” for the Inquisition o have entire worlds scoured of all life. Inquisitors rarely us the Exterminatus.
Rodney Kelly if you exterminatus a planet then the planet would be renderd useless.
Even egoistic inquisitors knows what it means to lose an entire planet forever.
james cloe bacaltos I agree, that’s why there’s is an Ordo that actually investigate whether an Exterminatus was actually needed for that situation. Ironically 90% of those who they investigated were declared Traitors for massively wasting the Emperors resources.
Castlerea 12 what ordo is that?
james cloe bacaltos The Ordo Excorium
I love how u pic the perfect pictures for what u are talking about the whole time. Very good reference library
You know...at first I hated the Inquisition, but overtime I have come to learn that they Are needed. Thank you for reminding me why. I still know a few I want to ask the Space Wolves to meet. Not you though. *Hands you a toaster with a ribbon on it.* You are good one. ^-^
The Inquisition is a necessary evil in the 41st Millenium, unfortunately. I shudder to think how much worse it could be if they didn't exist. On the other hand, has that toaster been sanctified in accordance to the will of the Omnissiah? Machine spirits need appeasement you know, and it might try to kill us with projectiles made of burning toast.
Worry not! My Lasgun fires Jelly and Butter.
Brandon Aughtman Praise the Omnissiah!
They might be needed, but the biggest problem with the Inquisition is zero oversight and they have essentially unlimited power.
One mild correction. Aren't the Inquisition Storm Troopers different from the normal imperial storm troopers?
They are a variation of them yes, but they undergo the same military training (albeit with more purity checks).
Remember Tempestus Scion is High Gothic for Stormtrooper :)
40K Theories inquisitorial storm troopers has better equipment since they have the backing of a inquisitor.
love you're videos man
@Remleiz, hey man you're cannon in the new Imperial Knight codex. There's a saurian skulled techpreist on page 106 in the upper left corner. You are CONFIRMED good sir.
Nobody expects the emperors inqustion but everyone really should at this point
So the SOB are actually in the Inquisition? Is this in the same manner as US Marines are technically part of the Navy?
eeeehhhhh..... Kindof? They're officially part of the Adeptus Ministorum, but the Orders Militant is both part of the Adeptus Ministorum and is the Chamber Militant of the Ordo Hereticus.
The Marines were part of the Navy until WWI when they became their own branch because of how hard they fought and how masterfully people behind the scenes did PR for them. They went from a group very few people knew of in 1913 to the stars of the show by 1919.
The history of the First World War is incredible and I wish more people knew it in depth.
Ordo Sicarius? Are they tasked with, shall I say, the exquisite privilege of monitoring daring exploits of the most glorious hero of the Imperium, that is He, Cato Sicarius? And the even better question is: does Calgar know about them? ^^
I love your content, but when i am sitting at home relaxing doing some painting, and i forget to jump past the intro, i get heart attacks.. it's just so loud and noisy.. content is well worth it though.
It just makes sure you're paying attention ;) But thank you
It is very effective :) i appreciate your help in making me get shit done and not slacking!
"ORDO DRAIGO PRESENT, WE SHALL PROVIDE THE HAMS"
Question: I know you probably get this question a lot, but have you thought of making an Inquisition army based on your persona (if you don't have one already)? If so, what army would it be (Imperial Soup, Ad-Mech, etc.)?
Think about how different societies in the past have reacted to "demons" and "witches," then think about what would happen if actual cloven-hoofed, blood-thirsty demons would appear today. I imagine the reaction would be similar to the inquisition. In fact, one must wonder if the Eldar had an similar force during their heyday, they might have prevented the birth of Slaanesh. In the Asurmen novel, the Eldar empire is described before the fall, the chaos cults are known, but still the minority, and it seems like a inquisition would have nipped that in the bud.
Great video to listen to while painting my Deathwatch army. :O
I'm sure the fact Inquisitor Martyr came out just recently has nothing to do with this video :)
Surprisingly no, but it is a happy coincidence
40K Theories And a welcome one, for sure.
Just read Dan Abnett's books
I am gonna need 2 boltors for this heresy.
I don't know why, but I imagined you as an _actual_ mechanicus giving the new acolytes of the Omnissiah (us viewers) an intro orientation into the structure of the imperium so we can better serve the Will of the Emperor and the Omnissiah's Grace.
"Laughs in Gold" - Custodes
8:03 who monitor the actions of CATO SICARIUS
God damn I love the inquisition. They're metal as fuck.
very very helpfull!
Basically they're like the Salem Trials gone intergalactic
I did not expect this.
I always thought that the sisters of battle were the militant arm of the eclesiarchy .
They're both, thanks to the events of the Convocation of Nephilim.
4:32 he said almost choking his words from PURE RAEGE
8:10 too bad i thought it was to regulate somewhat the amount of cheese of aibo sicarius
MAGNUS OPEN THE PORTAL!
No. I think not. A change of leadership is in or-wait, wrong reference.
I wonder if there is a second inquisition, the inquisition that inquisits the inquisition
Is the ordo that monitors documents responsible for destroying unwanted records? I recall several books where mysterious burn teams were engaged in wholesale destruction of books, Imperial histories, and priceless other records in order to purge Imperial records of something they didn’t want anybody to know. They didn’t appear to know exactly where that information was so they burned entire wings of buildings just to be sure. Some were operating on Terra itself.
We know you’re wishing that we’d go away; but the inquisition’s here and it’s here to stay
So, it's been about 2 weeks binging your channel. I gotta know; do you game, or just read all the novels and lore books? What's your legion look like? I wanna see it!
I never played 40k, but when I was a kid, one of my sitters did. I was always fascinated watching him put together and paint Gene stealers and space Marines. Got me into gaming in general, especially ad&d (I came in at the beginning of 2nd edition) and I quickly became our groups miniature painter, painting people's choice figurines into thier preferred visage, and occasionally painting heros from the books. Drizzt was a favorite as were later model dwarves (from 'chainmail' series)
And to this day, one of my favorite concepts is the "space marine". 40k still has better space Marines, though. So much history, tradition, and Gene manipulation. Doom marine and master chief can eat thier shorts
I haven't had a chance to play 8th edition yet as I'm still recovering from spinal issues so have been unfortunately pretty housebound for the past 2 years >_< But I've been in the hobby since second edition :)
40K Theories OMG is so sorry to hear that. I hope you recover well.
Looks like I still have a ways to catch up, so, I'll stay with you
Inquisition you say? I AM THE INQUISITION!
It's Trazyn then?
BURN HERETIC FOR THE GOD EMPEROR
Todd Farley All will bow before the will of the Necrontyr. Glory to the Silent King!
Pulls out chain sword "DIE!"
Todd Farley Pulls out warscythe. "Have at thee!"
My favorite Inquisitorial Ordo is/was/will be the Ordo Chronos
Even if you have nothing to hide, you still have something to fear.
I ❤ the Inquistion
Ordo Sicarius = Keeping an eye on Cato Sicarius' shenanigans XD
And he speaks from personal experience. :)
jim white MAGNUS OPEN THE PORTAL
Emperor: oh for the sake of me stop burning my planets those don't grow on trees you know. I sware once I get of this fucking god couch and smack every inqusitor so hard that Malcdor feels it.
Daddy's belt.
Inquisition, encounters with: See "Hopeless Situation". The reason for this? Like Orks, the word "overkill" isn't in their vocabulary as far as their response to threats are concerned. | The Knights-Errant being made up of Loyalists from legions that sided with the Warmaster. | 10:50 - The Sisters of Battle? (as in point in the general direction of the objective, shout "HERETIC!" and stay out of the way.)
personally i think i would adopt a radical philosophy, and from i understand from the eisenhorn books, there seems to a bit of infighting in the inquisition between the puritans and the radicals
You can’t speak of the inquisition without thinking of Mel Brooks.
Monty Python surely?
40K Theories every time I here that word I hear Mel Brooks singing “it’s the inquisition”
Cracks me up.
Hors d'oeuvre Majoris and Hors d'oeuvre Minoris.
I’m hungry
What’s the name of the intro song?
"creeps in trenchcoats"
If i understood correctly.. they are kind of the Gestapo ? 🤔
Rule #9 Do not trust the Inquisition
Scream of Shadow Rule #10 Not trusting the Inquisition is heresy
Rule #11 Don't think too much. Cause that will end you up in heresy jail.
Rule#12 Nobody expects the Inquisition.
That awkward moment when you expose yourself on an inquisitorial meeting as a mono dominant xenohybridist....
I didn't know you were in the Imperial Inquisition?
He's Lord Inquisitor Remleiz now. Got promoted by the Man Emperor himself.
Ficus Tindley I was hoping for the Spanish Inquisition joke.
Barry Bend Welp. This is way too late, but...Nobody expects the Holy Inquisition!
After 1 minute 25 seconds; the inquisition are the skull and bones of the 40k Universe!
I know this heresy will be my dead, but that's the way I see thinks!
L.O.L
Thorianism is a reference to the religious reformer Sebastian Thor, who was believed to be divinely inspired by the Emperor. While some Thorians believe the emperor can reincarnated, the fundamental Thorian position is that the Emperor can intercede in humanities affairs via spiritually guiding certain chosen people. As a result they are focused on identifying individuals who may be receiving such guidance and assisting them.
Horusianism is not simply the belief that the powers of Chaos can be harnessed for the betterment of mankind. Rather, taking it's inspiration from Horus, it is the claim that the best way to ensure humanity's survival is via the empowerment of individuals via Chaos. Like Thorianism this is a sort of messianic belief. It is focused on finding or creating individuals of great spiritual power and supporting their endeavors.
True, but again this is for newcomers and the different philosophies on the Inquisition will be explored in more detail in a separate video, but how they were briefly described is essentially a simplified explanation of their core belief systems even though they are more fundamentally complex :)
This reminds me of a question, how common are air cars in 40k?
Depends on the world.
what I mean is that anti grav seems pretty rare in the imperium unless its very small scale like a servo skull, cherub, or grapplehawk. are there any examples in books of air cars, I know it was mentioned it the first Ciaphas Cain book but i'm pretty sure he was referring to a tau transport. so what tech level might a world need to be at or how important do you have to be to get one rather then something like an shuttle such as a aquilla lander.
Cody Archer - Nah, he has air cars in other books, on high-tech worlds.
Grey knight is the best chapter.
This video has been approved by the Inquisition. Some of the others....well, we'll discuss those later. =][=
I'm not sure if I really hate to love these guys or really love to hate them
michael howell Por que no los dos? Why not both?
Ordo Matt Wardium of the cheesy plot-armored super marysues
now only if they could get a new codex
The Inquisition is a group of VERY nice People who protect you from things you shouldn't know ANYTHING about.
YOUR WATCHDOG GROUP IS NOT NEEDED IN THIS IMPERIUM.
+1 like for TTS High Marshall Helbrecht reference.
In all seriousness, the Inquisition is probably the most screwed up organization in the Imperium. One person sneezes and suddenly, EVERYONE DIES.
That and as a Blood Raven, I frown upon this organization. Mostly the Ordo Malleus being denser than ceramite on hiding our genetic heritage. Like it's some *big* thing.
By the Emperor, Malcador the Hero is shaking his head in frustration. I really don't like the Inquisition, if I haven't made it obvious....
Malik al-Rawandi I understand. I detest the Inquisition myself. They're up there with the Ecclesiarchy on my list of most disliked Imperial organisations/factions. At the same time, I can see why they are a necessary evil. Things might be a little bit more worse without them unfortunately, what with Chaos around the corner, the blueberries and their alien ideology brazenly taking Imperial planets, and a whole host of cults and rebels.
Ficus Tindley There are some good Inquisitors out there, don't get me wrong. I understand their need but I believe that there is waaayy too much power in their hands. I mean, look what happened to the Rainbow Warriors. These dogs need to learn to heel.
You are right, however. Their existence is needed but the scope they cover is much too large. Then again, its grimdark bureaucracy so it fits.
Malik al-Rawandi The horrors of giving well intentioned extremists way too much power: that's the Inquisition in a nutshell. Also, what happened to the Rainbow Warriors? Ork snipers? Or was it those Celestial Lions who got that?
HYDRALISK ZERG !!?? On your right 11:40
Nah, that's a Toxicrene
For the Emperor!
talking out of turn. thats heresy.
looking out the window. thats heresy.
staring at my new sandals. thats heresy.
paddling the school canoe. oh you bet thats heresy!
hells onion what about trying to lick your own elbows to become immortal?
Heresy, painful and damn funny looking :-P
2:59 I love crazy bitches! :D
Who stands over the inquisition and judges them for false murder?
The thing that irked me most, was the pronunciation of some words. Such as the Grey Knight’s Ordo. I may be wrong, but the Imperium has quite often used words in a pseudo Latin, and as such, have a very different pronunciation. Maybe Gothic is English, read like Latin, and with a British accent... I would love to be proven wrong/right by a video
Lord Clang` maybe you should just stop being persnickety
Cues in mel brooks inquisition song
The Inquisition!, Let's begin!, The Inquisition!, Look Out Sin!
Speaking of song, what’s the name of the intro music?
When exactly, and under what circumstances, did the inquisition go religious?
Blood for the blood God!!!
Found the heretic. To arms, bruvas! Pray! Kill! Burn! No remorse! No fear *Helbrecht scream*
If it bleeds like a heretic,
dies like a heretic,
burns like a heretic,
It must be a heretic.
Hail the empire!!! =][=
The pain in my oiled up ass
Are you an inquisitor?
Hey guys could you all check out Oculus Imperias channel please,his content is amazing and really needs to be viewed by every 30/40k fan.
Best regards
Felix Jaeger.
Ps...Gotrek is in a foul mood today and does not wish to comment lol
Why is an inquisitor talking about the inquisition?
Imagine if there is a pair of Inquisitors called Stacy and Becky, who came from the Kalliphornya System, and they speak like Valley-girls.
Stacy: "Ah mah Emperah, Becky! Look at this, it is, like, soooo Heretic!"
Becky: "Suuuuper Heretic! I will tell everyone!"
Becky takes a selfie of the event at the background using a servo-skull with a pict-taker doing the "V" sign and a duck-face, and text in a dataslate conected in the noosphere machine-spirit "Visageparchment":
"This is an afront to Daddy E and everyone to the point of, like, I MUST destroy this planet" #exterminatus #burnthebitch #inquisitiongirlsrulz 😜
ORDO XENOS
Sinply do not:
Entrust Inquisiter
=]❌[= no
Evil as Shit
I think aliens are fine, every citizen should get to follow whatever religion they want and Abaddon did nothing wrong.
It's cool for me to chill and hang out here right?
Not Ultramarines. Unsubbed
Ordo Ultramarinus, present! We will provide the Codex!
What’s the name of the intro song?
