I know a lot of people are making this type of video at the moment, but I bet none of them are gonna give away a 1/6 Scale Titus statue

Well since Leandros didn't notify a Chaplin or Librarian and went straight to the Inquisisiton about his suspicions he should have at least been busted down to Scout Reserves if not worse for violating the Codex Astartes. You know, that set of rules he was so hard for.

“YA GOT A NEW HYPE-TRAIN SPACE MARINE!?”
- Warboss Grimskull

I love that instead of doing what almost every Warhammer media does nowadays, where they use Death Guard, they are using the Thousand Sons. A faction that's kinda like ec that's rarely talked about compared to the other 2

One thing I never understood was: why Graia a forge world doesn't have any skitari defending their forge world. Aside from that little plot hole and the mix up between mechanicus and mechanicum, great vid

[Joseph-mwrl]

Leandros really went: I'm not gonna let erebus out do me, I WILL become the most hated character

[DOOM_Dwarf]

A friendly reminder that WH40K has TWO Doom Slayers.

Malum Caedo in real space.
Kaldor Draigo in the Warp.

*THERE IS NOWHERE TO RUN DEAMONS*

[mrckapm]

Watch Titus have to go up against a Swarm Lord that is suspiciously immune to being powerfisted

[Tangy_Horizon]

Malum caedo becoming cannon is the good twist of the day I didn't know I needed

[perfectpushup]

pre-ordered the Ultra edition, bought a PS5 for my two sons and I, each with their own colored controller specifically for this game! The three of us are hardcore 40k fanboys! Being a dad of fellow 40k lovers is so awesome!!!

Remember whatever your favorite chapter to customize as in SM2 we all can spare a few moments to give Leandros the clap back heard from the other end of the galaxy.

I'd love a Malum Caedo Easter egg or cameo.

Fun fact, as well as making mark strong a more recognisable name, Drogan was voiced by Danny Webb, who has done absolute tons for games workshop, narrating the early gotrek and felix audio books to be quite specific. However most will now him from tv and film, such as the UK’s The Bill, Pennyworth, Poirot, and doctor who. He’s played both goebbels AND himmler, was in Alien 3 and Death wish 4, AND was in the video for YES’s owner of a lonely heart. He’s been about for years. And is quite funny voicing Gotrek. Which many newer fans will know as Brian blessed (who was also in earlier gw projects, tau: firewarrior. )

Orks: Waaagh!
Csm: Evil!
UM BFFs: But the codex astartes!

There is a way to make you play as guards in an FPS in a realistic way.
The battlefield 1 intro mission comes to mind where you posses multiple soldiers.
you can add some general/commisar mechanics there too!
To blend an RTS light with an FPS!

[generalunclesam]

There is also a lore conflict regarding the location of Forgeworld Greia, in the first game the cinematic shows that the world is located in Segmentum Ultima in the Eastern Fringe which makes it’s location strategically close to the Realm of Ultramar but official lore puts the forgeworld in Segmentum Tempestus

[honestwarmonger]

You know what would be funny,
Titus fighting a sorcerer and it casts an illusion of warboss GrimSkull

[ninjamasterall]

FINALLY, I need Majorkill reacting to trailers and giving breakdowns

[ddogthepimp]

TOTALBISCUIT playing space marine 1 was the whole reason i got into warhammer in the first place. excited as shit to play this.

[housetoocrowded]

I wonder if Leandros was reprimanded for reporting a brother Ultrmarine to the Inquisition without consulting with the Ultramarines other Captains or chain of command.
He was a prime candidate for a drop
Pod failure IMO
