The Posterboys of 40k

Any other Marine: "You think you're better than me?" Ultramarine: "My service record indicates this to be true, yes."

Guilliman's true unique gift has always been the incredible power to be a well-adjusted member of society.

The Ultramarines are so practical so efficent that they happen to be the easiest color to paint minatures ..their lore literally extends to real life .. i love it

Isyander: I will start with slander. Brain: Islyander I so sorry

Other chapters: “What do you have that we don’t? 😡 “ Based marines: Our dad 🗿

"The Church ate the post office and the trains are run by the navy, goodluck!" has got to be the best quote. Always a joy to listen to you guys.

53:43 That is my absolute favorite thing about Guilliman. 99.99% of the Imperium would be thinking, "The God-Emperor... the God-Emperor... the God-Emperor...." Meanwhile Guilliman is that percentage of a percentage that thinks when troubled, "What would my mom do? What would she say if she was here?"

The Ultramarines are the chapter for people who's fantasy is having a dad who loves them, and a functional family

I so desperately want the hero’s of the imperium to win

Looks like the Ultramarines luck finally prevailed again.

Recruiting with the Ultra Marines is like: “oh, I see you maxed out your PT score, ASVAB and your SAT welcome aboard!” Space Wolves are like “I see you got blindingly drunk, made a bet you could hunt down a Blackmaned wolf in a blinding blizzard, punch it in the face then ride it back here all while naked. And you did. Welcome aboard brother!” Basically this is exactly why the Wolves of Fenris are also so popular. They are the complete opposite of the Blue Berries.

Uriel Ventras had a good handle on the Codex and I think viewed it like Guilliman intended. That’s what got him in trouble and sent to deal with the Daemonculaba.

As a newer WH40k fan, nice to see something about the Ultramarines that isn't just meme'ing about how boring they are for an hour straight.

Your guys are adorably wholesome. The bit at the end where Koda calls out Isyander for always rolling a human adjacent character in D&D is priceless.

Praise Guillimom for making the king of the Blueberries relatively well-adjusted (compared to his brothers) EDIT: Most of the way through the video and you guys are just great keep on hyper focusing I'm here for all of it

Kodas analogy of court proceedings and policy making with regards to establishing tactics was the most Guilliman thing!

I want to see Ciaphas Cain, Hero of the Imperium.

I'm so Ultrahappy that we are finally getting the Ultraepisode for the Ultramarines. Also...I fully believe that everybody on earth has at least SEEN an Ultramarine at least once in something.

The thing with the Codex if I remember right is that Gulliman wrote it as a general guideline and just as it was being rolled out, he did wargames where he was the side running AGAINST the Codex he wrote to prove that it is not infallible. He wrote the single best pieces of combat literature ever concieved and implemented, told the Astartes forces to learn them and then beat them in spite of it to prove a point. I'm just giddy with the idea of Roboute and Lion meeting up because they last part on not very good terms. Both of them seem to have been mellowed or tempered a bit. So I just imagine Roboute waiting for Lion in just normal clothing, with some tea and biscuits, hoping against hope that Lion won't punch him in the face the first thing. And maybe hope for a hug. Or even just a firm handshake. But the boy needs a hug. Both of them do, really.

Honestly discovering a franchise with 10+ years of lore was a gift. And then I found these two, which made it easier, and that's the REAL gift.
