If you liked the introduction to the Siege of Vraks, make sure to continue the rest of the series. We still have lots to cover. :_janoKrieg: You may also enjoy the Civil War on Krieg or the Horus Heresy series.

I like to think that in order to get the machine spirits of the imperium's trains moving the Adeptus Mechanicus has to play the Thomas the tank engine theme song. Its not actually required for them to operate, it just makes them go faster.

My in the middle of re-exams having already watched all parts multiple times Janovich: ‘Wanna see it all in one video?’ Me: ‘Don’t mind if I do.’

If the Kriegsmen were not already near suicidal in their fanaticism, they were certainly suicidal after spending days on end listening to the Thomas the Tank Engine theme on the way to the front lines. What a genius way to ensure the Death corp performs as expected.

38:02 "the continuous artillery barrages continued..." Ah thank the Emperor, you had me worried for a second then

I love this went from "great schism" to "Western Front 1914 Future DLC" to "Dawn of War Soulstorm Apocalypse mod"

43:30 From what I've studied of military history, and what a couple high school buddies who went in the service said, this is EXACTLY how you deal with a minefield under open field assault. If there is no cover, then you have to charge ahead. Ideally, on a wide front: If spaced out, it makes it harder for the enemy to sweep down groups, and while each individual soldier has a larger chance of hitting one, the company as a whole will not suffer entire squads dying to one mine blast. Not to mention, once one company has charged over... others can follow. A minefield is meant to slow and demoralize an army, removing mobility. Mobility is the only thing that keeps a soldier alive against machine guns and artillery.

This is a much better way of understanding the conflict

I like how the order of scales the wars was fought in was so big that using actual numbers would do more harm than good for the story

33:45 And over the vox you hear an ancient song from a distant past: Strike at Zero Hour With overwhelming firepower They're fueled by the fear in their enemies' eyes It's a Shock Troop infiltration A fast and violent escalation Out of the trenches the stormtroopers rise

One of my favorite little fun facts about the Siege of Vrakks is that in the mustering of forces for the 88th Siege Army the Krieg soldiers weren’t given names rather numbers so it was easier to tally dead/wounded etc

These :_janoKrieg:Death Korps of Krieg:_janoKrieg: are willing to redeem themselves and die gloriously in battle in the God-Emperor's name.

You, my man, are a blessing to this community. People like you are the reason 40K is such an amazing Hobby despite GW being such an incompetent bunch

“Can I have more troops?” “How many?” “ Y E S “ Has got to be the best convo ever lol

Allready a Masterpiece. I can't wait for the Finished Project. And i can't imagine what a Collaboration with the Maker of "VRAKS" could do. Most certainly something that look "Warhammer +" Content like a Russian Cartoon from the 50'.

the emperor protects

Imperial Military History Visualized ....even with humor added. What a great piece of work. Here's hope you dive into other events as detailed as here. o7

Hell yeah!! 19:28 easily the best part of the whole seriesm

43:20 Vraks: “Oh, they found the land mines.”
