44: Adeptus Astartes: Recruitment | Warhammer 40K Lore
In this episode we take a look at the meticulously structured process for Space Marine recruitment. We look at how Chapters select recruits from specific homeworlds or regions, seeking individuals who demonstrate exceptional strength and unwavering loyalty. We explore preferred recruitment worlds such as Feral and Hive Worlds, known for producing robust and aggressive candidates. We look at the mythic aura around the various types of selection trials, from the straight-forward mass duels to the death to the psychically induced acid trip of the more esoteric chapters. We close out with what it means to fail in the trials together with cultural impacts for those societies who produce a worthy candidate.Chat with us on DiscordPatreonMerchandiseQuartermaster Listen Ad-FreeSHOW IMAGES: NONE

43: Adeptus Astartes: The Legiones Astartes | Warhammer 40K Lore
CLICK HERE TO VOTE ON THE CHAPTER HERITAGE!We start at the launch of the great crusade and the generic Order of Battle used by the 20 legions before experience and the rediscovery of their primarch changed them. We touch on the schism between those astartes recruited on Terra and those who came after their Primarch was rediscovered. We look at the structure of a Chapter, a central organisational block of each legion and the assets available to it. Touching briefly on the size and disposition of the Legiones astartes we skip to the end of the Horus Heresy examining what the Imperium was forced to abandon to survive, including the very Imperial Truth that rationalised the great crusade. We examine the changes wrought by Roboute Guilliman on the Astartes and wider military organisations and the central reason for its necessity.

42: Adeptus Astartes Origins Part 4: The Primarch Project | Warhammer 40K Lore
CLICK HERE TO VOTE ON THE CHAPTER LIVERY!We start with the creation of the Primarchs, the reasons that led the Emperor to command their creation and the mysterious Erda who aided him. We look at how the Emperor's own genome was used and altered and the other “biological material” mixed in… gross. After they mysteriously disappeared their genomes were then used to create the first round of Space Marines even as the Thunder Warriors were conquering Terra For the Emperor. Unleashed upon the world the Astartes finished Unifying the planet before being sent out into the wider galaxy. Along the way we give examples of their effectiveness during the later years of the Unification War at the fall of Orioc and destruction of Vhnori.Chat with us on DiscordPatreonMerchandiseQuartermaster Listen Ad-FreeSHOW IMAGES:Superhuiman ScaleThe PrimarchsErdaLeeto “LE-2”

41: Adeptus Astartes Origins Part 3: Thunder Warriors | Warhammer 40K Lore
CLICK HERE TO VIEW CHAPTER HERALDRY & DOWNLOAD COLOUR SCHEME SCHEMATIC!We launch this episode with a look at the context for the Emperor's Unification of Terra and the needs and forces that required the Thunder Warriors. We have a gander at the organisation of their 20 legions, foreshadowing, and the abilities and flaws of their powerful and muscular frames. We then face their end by delving into the battle of Mount Ararat at the supposed close of the Unification. Exposed for the lie it is, we then examine the morality of the creation of the Thunder Warriors and their culling at the hands of their allies (proving the Imperium to be built on a lie). We close out the episode with the final grasp of justice during the Palace Coup and fate of those Thunder Warriors who survived into the Heresy era.
