After watching this video, you will know everything you need to know to make sense of the 40k timeline. The warhammer 40k timeline is massive! it stretches back 60 million years to the war in heaven with the necrons, eldar, orks and old ones, all the way up to the 42nd millennium. today Were going to be abridging the time line just a bit and focusing specifically on the defining moments that would shape the universe into what it is in the most recent material. The stuff I chose to leave out is important, but it doesn't have as wide of an impact on the story as the stuff were going to be going over today. This time line covers the war in heaven, the fall of the eldar, birth of slaanesh, rise of humanity, the dark age of technology, age of strife, the unification wars, the great crusade, the horus heresy, and the 13th black crusade. as well as some quick explanations of the events in between.

No space marine legion is quite as repugnant and horrifying as that of the Death guard. They turned against the emperor of mankind and chose to instead follow nurgle, the chaos god of plagues and despair. They are the warhammer 40k universe's equivalent of power armor equipped plague zombies. they are immune to pain and can shrug off practically any injury. this once proud and noble legion, has forsaken its oath to protect the men and wemon of the imperium of mankind, to instead travel the cosmos, spreading Nurgle's corruption as far as possible. lets take a deep dive into their tactics and history and see what Nurgle's nasty boys are all about.

Do you know where Warhammer 40k memes come from? Do you know the origins or the lore behind these jokes? And did you know that many of the most popular memes aren't even true? Decades ago, Warhammer fans came up with a small handful of jokes, and every new meme that has been invented over the last 20 years, is just derivate of the original 8. Space wolves = furries. Purple Orks are completely invisible. The Adeptus Mechanicus likes to do horrible things to toasters, and every variation of "yes inquesitor, this video right here". They are all absolutely hilarious, and S class memes in their own right. but where do they come from and why do they persist many years later? Lets deep dive some of these Warhammer memes and figure out the lore behind them.

The Adeptus custodies are 8-9 foot tall golden demigods, each a one man army. its like an entire faction of maxed out video game characters. they are that RIDICULOUS! but they have the best training, the best equipment, and they are immortal! but for how great they are... they have spent the thousands of years since the Horus heresy doing nothing. well not literally nothing, but they haven't been participating in the larger fight. now in Warhammer 40k, the God Emperor's 10,000 are needed once again... lets take a deep dive into the Custodian guard! the royal guard of god himself!

The Bloodtide is easily the most controversial 40k story of all time. its got everything! characters acting dumb, tons of blood and grim dark imagery, and a conclusion that has left many readers utterly confused. it is easily the most messed up encounter the sisters of battle and the grey knights have ever been involved in. The community seems to believe it was retconned yet no one seems to know the source of its replacement. 
lets take a look at the blood tide incident and warhammer 40k retcons as a whole. How do we know if something has truly been retconned? lets find out!

Part 1 Linkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh7wjZP3258
***CORRECTION! It was the first heretic where the comparison of custodes to lions and space Marines to wolves came from. not false gods. 
We will be going over the top 10 most powerful armys in the entire warhammer 40k franchise. stick around till the end as there is a bonus segment that shows how the power rankings change when you take alliances into account. tyranids orks necrons and the forces of chaos...just one of these factions would be apocalyptic to deal with, but all of them at once? how is humanity suppossed to make it to the year 50k?
agree or disagree with my ranking? let me know what and why you would change it down in the comment section

Were ranking every faction in 40k from bad to best! warhammer 40k is home to a whole HEAP of ludacrisly OP factions. but how powerful are they actually? and how do they stack up against everyone else? are the Tyranids the ultimate creations? are the space marines as OP as games workshop would have us believe? Or are the Orks actually "DA BEST"? lets dive in and find out!
And a side note. alot of these factions are actually allys with each other, and some are vastly larger than others. so ive done a bit of grouping to get the list to a solid 20 entrys. if I was to list literally EVERY astra militarumregiment, we would be here all day. 
So enjoy part 1, (20-11). Part 2 will be up soon!

Are the Chaos Gods actually the good guys? There's no doubt that the chaos gods do some pretty messed up stuff. but did you know that the Warhammer gods actually have a good side? it doesn't get talked about much, but these beings have been worshiped for millions of years by millions of different cultures. Nurgle, Tzeentch, Slaanesh, and Khorne, these are only the names we know them by, but they've gone by many names across time. if so many people worship them they cant be all bad right? lets take a closer look at the good elements of each of the chaos gods and try to figure out where everything went wrong.
If you are a warhammer 40k fan or a warhammer age of sigmar player, the lore of the gods is pretty similar, as chaos is trans universal.
I still plan on doing a comprehensive deep dive of the chaos gods, this was a short that was running long so i decided to flesh it out and turn it into a full length video. so expect a follow up in the future! there is SOOOO much to cover when it comes to these impossible creatures!
