  • Hi all Wolf Lord Rho here!
    Today we are taking a look, at how faith, can be the strongest light in the dark...
    Spoiler warning to begin, the events we are discussing today are from the Warhammer 40,000 short story "Champions, All" by Marc Collins. As always I really recommend you read the story for yourself first. As that's the best way to enjoy the lore. Not only that, we help to support the great Games Workshop and Black Library. Because without them we don't have this amazing lore to talk about. Link: www.blacklibrary.com/all-prod...
    I do not currently have Patreon. However if you wish to support the channel or would like to send me a gift as some have asked, then sending a virtual gift voucher to WolfLordRho@gmail.com using the link below will help towards the channel. But please include your name in the notes so I can thank you.

    They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will blight them.

    The templar week might be over, but the Eternal Crusade persists. It makes a lot of sense too, the Imperium is a horrible mess that is constantly under siege. Space marines are way too effective and their numbers far too small to simply standby in their fortress worlds, being proactive is the only way they stand a chance of managing the disarray of it all.

    After watching the first few Helsreach videos on youtube, I Immediately bought the audiobook and spent the next 12 hours listening to the entire thing lol. Out of all the iconic moments like the one your talking about, when they make their last stand at that church at the end, there's this part right after the orks bust in and right before everyone starts dying where Grimaldus stops fighting, grabs an ork by the neck and raises it up with one arm and holds it there. Then he just starts laughing at it, while everyone's fighting for their lives lol. He's laughing his ass off and making fun of it, lol talking mad shit. Out of all the cool shit in Helsreach, that's the part that stuck with me the most.

    The Emperor's Champion is probably one of the coolest features of the Black Templars, taking into account the peculiarities. The most interesting detail in my opinion is the chain, a habit taken from the World Eaters by Sigismund while he was fighting in their pits (and kicking arse, since only Savatar was able to best him and only via an illegal move). Hopefully the Templars and the World Eaters will face each other one day because that fight will truly be legendary

    I think we're starting to see something interesting in the faith of the Imperium. Something that seems to be different from the powers of the warp. That Pariah sector seems to highlight it quite clearly. The powers of the warp seem to not work there. The entire sector seems to be cut off from the warp. However it's not cut off from the faith of the Imperium.
    This is another thing that makes me think that the emperor has finally repaired the human webway. If he isn't actually in the warp but in some way adjacent to it like in the webway. Then I don't think machines and technology which cuts the physical reality away from the immaterial would affect it. And if it has been repaired and the emperor isn't in the warp but projecting his power from the web way of into the warp and physical Universe then there's no reason it could not be more directed and controlled like a targeting system. Especially since there are some hints that he was developing a weapon in the human web way to be used against the ruinous powers.

    Sister and Black Templars make good allies but Sisters and Salamanders are the true embodiment of burning the unclean, for maximized purging!

      @Deathcoldan that's what's funny about the pyromaniacs. Off the battlefield they still even keep in contact with their families and sometimes visit, so they always keep their human connections.
      Also obvious jest is obvious. They'd just go somewhere else and burn that too. Heresy does not stop for parties! If anything parties cause heresy and should probably all be hosed down with blessed promethium, then bombed from orbit for good measure.
