[Luetin]

Let the Galaxy and the Scambots BURN - been a while since the last Loregear - got more new stuff on the way soon. Working on Part 2 of the Apocalypse stuff as well.
If you enjoyed as always help me out - drop a LIKE - tell me your thoughts on Angron? Could he have been a good son if he wasnt so horribly broken before the Emperor found him?

[DocLefty]

And thus, fate looked upon Angron and said:

“Fuck that guy.”

[coastyfish]

Working through the solar war books and every part with Kharn makes me so sad. Like part of him is fighting to be the old space marine but he’s constantly being overridden by the butcher’s nails

[geodixohard]

The World Eaters didn't fall to Khorne. It was more of a small hop downwards.

[MsPuffykinz]

I always imagined the butchers nails as being something originally built to quell chronic pain. I don’t know why but that always made sense to me.

[adaeptzulander]

What made me sympathetic (a bit) to Angron, is that before the Heresy, he is the only primarch who called out that the Emperor was building a totalitarian slave state. He refuse to pretend that he loved his father or that what he was ordered to do was bringing "enlightenment" to far flung cultures.

[TheGammabomb]

The craziest part is that Angron was meant to embody the Emperors empathy, before he had unwanted brain reconstruction. Makes me wonder what legacy he would have left if he landed on....i dont know...mccrage or nocturne, instead of nuceria

[BluJean]

I'm obsessed with the detail that parts of his brain were REMOVED, it's likely that those priceless pieces of genecraft were just discarded but it's crazy to think that they may still be out there; preserved by someone who saw their value as specimens...

[MikeBrown]

I was not expecting a new video this soon, but I’m very happy to have it. Especially on Angron, his story is one of my “favorites”.

[darkscholar]

My heart tears for Angron. The man was never even given a chance to be good. If ever there was a victim of circumstance, itd be Angron.

[monkeyskitz]

I always think angrons tale is so tragic. If he had landed on another planet, or if the emperor had got to him before the nails were implanted, he may never have turned traitor.

[Jaytwisty]

I didn't know a damn thing about Warhammer till I randomly came across a luetin video then I was hooked! Now I'm absolutely in love with the dark and grim universe of 40k! Can't wait for more content!

[lapislazuli]

Angron reminds me of Cujo. Both were big loveable teddy bears before their brains were hijacked by something beyond their control that turned them into monsters.

[testinghydra]

One of the reasons that the nails are so much more damaging to Angron than most others is often overlooked. The nails were made for humans, a primarch is not your typical human. So the implantation was extremely sloppy, like a square peg to a round hole.

[draad]

"Mankind's appetite to inflict inhumanity upon itself, " that's a good one Luetin, bravo.

[TheRockofEasyCo]

Angron definitely feels like a victim, but not just of his masters, but I think also of the Emperor, I think he could've helped him more.

[CousinJesse]

Angron had endless potential. Could have been on par with Jaghatai and Vulkan had it not been for the butchers nails and a life of slavery.

[dic_tater]

to me Angron was the most important to fall to chaos because of his empath powers that could have saved his brothers from their emotional problems and walked them back from the edge
