Hello everyone, hope you like this video. I tried a few things to improve the audio since some people have been saying my video's audio hasn't been the best in the past. Let me know if I'm on the right track.
Let me know your favorite regiment and any suggestions for future vids
dude what ever your stand up teacher is teaching you.. keep listening. You had me cracking up all video!
lets go another one
People who get into a sci fi universe with so many different interesting races, space marines and chaos and still choose to focus so much of their time on imperial guard always fascinate me. That's a thing I've mainly noticed in older folks like my dad. Seemingly the older someone is the more likely they are to go for the more grounded, barely sci fi guard. It's really interesting. I don't see any young people playing or talking about guard at all
There's so many great Regiments,.
Mine is the Praetorians but forgot to say why last video.
Zulu is an amazing film that Praetorians and their Games Day diorama was based on that campaign.
Give them the good old 1st Rank, Fire, 2nd Rank, Fire….
Please good sir cover the Mordians and Praetorians
The desert raiders are also influenced by the original sas
best guard are scions and tallarn
dude you cant pickup reditors like that with telekinesis they are too fat so i guess emperor blessed you in that aspect
5:34 A GAME THEORY
I recently received a package from my mom containing my old metal figure steel legion and scions :). Always my favorites.
You say that, but calling them the Armaggeddon Chimeras does go pretty hard, if a little confusing.
4:09 – Gentle reminder that the psychic awakening is a thing…
Don’t forget the Taniths Nalwood stock rifles!
I would love to see the one about the regiment with the plinth helmets like the 1920 british explorer ones
Now that i think about it
I hope one day we had a tanith and catachan team up
Or an Armageddon steel legion and krieg team up
Guard Guard Guard Guard Guard!!!
Played Catachans with Cadian models for an armoured fist squad and Praetorians for Veterans, with some non-GW models for mortars.
Lore accurate, coz it’s stated ad-hoc regiments are frequently put together made up of remnants of depleted units.
Gimme Guard any day before I simp for the geneseed betas.
Where do I send the strongly worded letter
I love how he starts the intro of every regiment
You know what? I don’t want to which one is one of the best, if not THE BEST regiment.. what is one of the worse, if not THE WORST regiment?
I do think thus guy should invest in more backgrounds but otherwise I love this guys videos. He is like a more wholesome major kill and a more sane Paul is bad at stuff.
I also heard that the Tallarn have influence from the British SAS during WW2 in the African deserts. Because GW is British, it makes sense. They used hit and run tactics and would dress like arabs. You missed an influence lol!! Insert angry rant at you
If you get 10000 do the Salvar Chem Dogs.
i love these so much
so very much
Personally I'm a big fan of the really weird ones. Savlar Chem Dogs for one. They mirror how a lot of societies under pressure turn to organized crime, despondents, and criminals to secure battle-ready troops. Like how say, after the invasion of Iraq, a lot of the more hardcore for the various more extreme fedayeen insurgent groups recruited from bandit gangs, displaced farmers, etc, who even adopted the practice of being given the privilege of looting weapons from fallen enemies as a form of payment for their services, just like how the Chem-Dogs do.
Well done, good sir, splendid showing! However, I almost spilled my tea, when I noticed that your list of notable regiments of His Imperial Guard is still lacking mention of the fine chaps of the Praetorian Guard. They're one of the best, if not THE best, in the galaxy. Tally-ho!
Praetorian guard! I'm a really old school WH fan (I started at 2nd edition) and there have been some few miniatures of them from the pretty much at the beginning. I've alway thought they would make a really cool looking army but there's never been that much love for them :(.
Steel legion is my favorite simply cause my favorite guard character is from that legion Andrej. Sole survivor with Grimaldus and the best sense of humor.
I've always thought the tanith had a dash of the Chasseurs Ardennais in their inspiration.
