The RAVEN GUARD Legion in the HORUS HERESY | Legion XIX: Origins | Warhammer Lore

Shame he didn't do to the emperor what he did to his legion master

man the more I listen to these the more I wanna know about the Unification wars and pre-Imperium Terra

Corax - "Oi Terrans! Sod off, you aren't allowed to be Raven Guard"
Terran 1 - "awwww, Ravens are frickin' cool!"
Terran 2 - "Yeah, they're almost as cool as sharks!"

Wtf is a hot house?

Can you do a vid on the types of power armor used during the crusade was there a particular mrk favored by each legion?

Where is Ian? I NEED to know about Alpharius.

Hope you’re god sir. I love the positivity you have about this hobby and your videos are excellent.

Considering all the major reveals that just came, I’m sure you’re mega busy on the next Squatcast

I wanted to read a warhammer novel but they sell for like $15 USD for ebooks. Why do the books cost so much?

Ah, finally, my favourite legion!

Really enjoying this series!

✌️💚

Great video! New to your channel, subbed

Ultramarine: "EMO BIRDY BOIS!!!"

The Emperor meeting Angron: *was forcefully teleported and let him watch his people get slain by the slavers in his home planet*

The Emperor meeting Corax: You know what, Corax. How about I give you some nuclear warheads as a gift to free your people from the slavers.

I guess parents favoritism is still rampant in the far future.

What is the name of the book he is using for reference?

I would love it, if the Alpha Legion video would only be a shrug.

I can’t believe this series is almost over! I can’t wait to watch them all in one sitting.

Does the raven guard have its own candle? Think of the bad luck you're incurring by not burning it! Oh nooo the warp will make its way into your studio! Hide, Ian, hide!

I was today years old when I realised the world over delivance was named after Maleficent's Raven.

This is awesome. Love all the per-legion and per-heresy lore. Nice video. Keep up the good work.

Raven Guard are kind of a meh legion for me. Too many of the legions have a similar backstory of being wide ranging "terror troops" moving ahead of the main Crusade forces, and Raven Guard are just not conceptually different enough from the Night Lords. The stuff about hothousing legionaires is, yeah fine whatever.

Imagine 40k having "spoilers". It never used to have a live canon like this. Everything just always was - there was no primary source for anything.

Ah yes the 19th legion because stealth is a totally viable way when you are 2 and a half meters tall and weight the same as a car and use and armour that weights half as much.


However came up with this was either drunk or had brain damage.

Excellent video! This is my favorite Legion Astartes, and I greatly enjoyed your presentation.

Another enthralling installment. Thanks Ian.

Not to be confused with the other Raven Marines known for stealing stuff from Custodes, of course.

The emperor let corax do a whole insurrection but he couldn't have let Angron save his family

It would be interesting to see a Traitor Raven Guard (or rather Dust Nomads) army, made up of those Terrans who had been assigned to the distant fringes of the galaxy. When they learned of the civil war, some of them returned to throw their lot in with Horus. They were always more loyal to him than to Corax.

Not enough.

Next video, best legion, can't wait.

Ian - is there any chance you can do a video on what the Eldar were up to during the Horus Heresy?

I've always wondered: but never read, seen or heard anything to see what happened to the Eldar during the Horus Heresy.

It seems weird to think that they'd just sit out of it.

Would love to see a follow-up series that sees where each of the primarch and legions end up, as well as a few videos on the next stages of 40k history. How did we get from the Heresy era Legions to the many chapters that came later? What did the primarchs think of that. When did they switch from the Principia Belacosa to the Codex Astartes? Would love your lore videos to cover that stuff! Thanks again for making these!

"Shade Lord", "Predation Fleets", "Pale Nomads"...hm, I smell something fishy about those exiled terran legionaries. 🤔

Finally!!! My boys!

It's a shame that the Raven Guard are so underrated and underutilized, I think they can be really cool. I hope you'll make a video about blackshields at some point too

Corxax meeting his Legion Master:
"BAD IMPERIALIST! Go sit in the corner!"

Shadelord Arcus:
"Father, space doesn't have corners"

Corax:
"THEN GO FIND ONE"

Me: I don't care for space marines.
Me when Raven Guard: Listen. Listen. My good goth communist boys deserve so much better.

The death guard gave the Corvid 19

As you come to the end of the Legions I'd love to see a similar format covering the non-legion forces of the Horus Heresy, like how the loyalist and traitor Mechanicum , Custodes, Sisters of Silence, Solar Auxilia changed over the great crusade and heresy.

Raven Guard are my personal favorite Legion/ chapter. I hope they get more love soon.

I absolutely love these videos. But if I may, humbly, as politely as possible... You are mispronouncing the word subsequent. 😬 Sorry.

each one of these videos I wait to see what shirt he will wear

Can’t wait for next one which is mine. Hahaha sorry Raven Guard did your guys turn into literal birds, our bad

I am forever here to hear Ian say "Principia Belicosa". It's such a lovely couple of words to say.

Ain't never gonna forget how the people gave corax a new state of the art jump pack to replace the one he lost at Istvan right before he and the legion were going to set off for war. So cool.

After the Alpha Legion... famous Sieges/Battles?

These videos have been so good. We need a solution to keep making more. Maybe one for Gaunts Ghosts, or Aaiman?

:D
