- I've added timeline timestamps -
As we are well into 2020 the Space Marines seem something I should put off no longer, despite still having some other races and factional elements I need to cover in the wider galaxy of 40K it seems the right time to begin the process of covering the Space Marine’s. While it is tempting for me to go all in on a weighty singularly comprehensive video that covers every possible detail of a legion/chapter, from experience this would become an all consuming sprawling multi-hour video that would likely take me months to create - I want these instead to be consumable and not hinder production of other material each month.
I was all ready to leap straight into the first Legion… but then I realised in order to properly begin this series, it must establish how this all began. So this is a deliberately condensed version which I think hits the key elements from the beginning to the Primaris - so that I can continue on from there.
Lastly I’ll say that as per usual anything or anyone I’ll omit related to a legion’s history or events will be by choice, to either save time, or pin til later.

Last time I was this early, the Emperor was still a group of dank shamans having a bad trip.
Thanks, Luetin.

[grasstoucher]

I literally have no interest in playing the actual game but I can watch these videos all day.

The torturous process from Space Marine to Primaris is represented by the pain you feel in your wallet as you update your armies.

Me at 10PM: "Just one Luetin video won't hurt, right?..."
Me at 4:42AM: _"ALL PRAISE THE GOD EMPEROR, FOR HIS BEING IS DIVINE. THE EMPEROR PROTECTS, THE EMPEROR WILLS, AND SO, WE FIGHT."_

[raycearcher]

"What's that guy's deal?"
"He's an angel."
"Wow! How about that dude?"
"He's a werewolf."
"Woah! What do you do?"
"I'm space Genghis Khan. But I've got a sweet mustache."

Well done, Luetin! On behalf of us "newbies" to the 40K universe, thank you for keeping your videos clear and concise.
I know it must be easy for those of you who grew up with this, to want to just go off on these subjects that you learned quite some time ago, but for us newbies, this is one of the most intensely detailed universes I've ever encountered.
I patiently await your next video, sir.

57:02 "And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge."

Love that 'Lord of the Rings' reference.

[ICrazySkills]

83 minutes of Leutin?! Just as I was going insane in self isolation?! The emperor really does protect

[tyskbulle]

Me: Trouble sleeping... Need a bedtime story.
Luetin09: How about more tales of the grim dark future?
Me: Perfect!

[MrAbraxus]

As much as I'm not a Dornian fan-boy, I felt summing him up as having the "mastery of building walls" was a mega understatement. I'd argue that he was gifted with the mastery of stubborness and defiance. As a master builder, including earthworks and fortifications if he chose to dig his heels in on a world (Iron Cage) very little could get him to feck off again. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led to the Imperial Palace being fortified so it wouldn't fall. It was his stubbornness and defiance that led him to attack a Chaos Warship and get his paws chopped off (because lets face it, he not dead).

[CepheusTalks]

The Emperor being able to alter people's perception and memory of him seems correct, I found this in the novel Dark Imperium. The emperor had no need to hide his size from Guilliman so its likely a passive ability that he can't completely turn off.. either that or Guy Haley is going for something else here or perhaps no one in GW has thought about this issue

Guilliman smoothly drew his father’s sword. Mathieu gasped. He had seen the Sword of the Emperor drawn on several occasions. Every time, he bore witness to a miracle. On leaving the scabbard, the blade burst into flame.
Guilliman did not begrudge the priest his awe. There was great warpcraft in the weapon. When the blade was removed from the Emperor’s withered knee and presented to Guilliman by the Captain-General of the Adeptus Custodes, it had somehow fit his primarch’s stature. Guilliman frowned. He tried to remember how tall the Emperor was, but His living image refused to be caught and examined. In some memories, He was as tall as Guilliman; in others, no bigger than a mortal man.

In the grim darkness of quarantine, there is only Luetin09

[Tokumastu]

I just love the irony behind the creation of the Primaris. Cawl is someone that's looked down on by the astartes and yet it's because of him that the Primaris came into being and he manage to achieve a successful conversion for one of the most decorated chapter masters. The Omnissiah works in mysterious, yet logical ways.

[syvarris]

That slip into Galadriel’s intro to lord of the rings was good

[spethmanjones]

Astartes episode 5 followed up with an hour and a half of LT Space Marine goodness? You guys are holding back the darkness of this quarantine—thanks for yet another impeccable piece of content (only just started it, but I already know I'll love every second)!

[MadMax-]

Omg, Astartes, and now this....I’m getting spoiled

[covenantfestival]

Since COVID-19, I have made a (small) part of my income by selling painted models on eBay. It hasn't made me rich, but it has bought me a couple trips of groceries. I couldn't have done it without listening to your vids while painting, Lutein. Thank you so much.
