Summary

*Ad Free Version available on Lorehammer Patreon, link below.*The Brass Legion is not a force of wild berserkers, but a grinding wall of discipline in service to Khorne, an army where individuality is erased and war is waged as an unbroken, methodical advance. In this episode, we break down how this Traitor Guard regiment turns faith into function, from the Endless Tally that defines their culture to the rigid doctrine that keeps them fighting long past the point where other armies would collapse. We explore their origins within the Crimson Armada, their uneasy relationship with the War-Forge, and what happens when the Line finally breaks, because when it does, the result is just as terrifying as any chainaxe charge.Lorehammer Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/lorehammer/membershipOne Time Donationshttps://paypal.me/lorehammerpodcastLink to all Linkshttps://linktr.ee/Lorehammer40k

0:35.0	So hang tight with me as I go down this journey of madness into
0:39.1	the Knights of Slaughter and all the elements that get attached to them. On the last episode,
0:44.7	we dove into the Crimson Armada, which is the fleet that is attached to the Knights
0:51.8	of Slaughter. We learned that the Knights of Slaughter don't have this whole fleet.

1:21.2	many other things in that that episode um so yeah we're just going to kind of keep going into
1:27.1	these little kingdoms within the Crimson Armada.
1:32.8	Because all these things are kind of, they're all a part of the Crimson Armada, but no one really is in charge of it.
1:40.3	It's like when you get all these elements together, they kind of just form up and they have the
1:45.2	mutual cause, so then they go do mutual things together. You know, go listen to that episode if you
1:51.9	haven't. But on this episode, yeah, we're covering the Brass Legion, which are the mortals that do
1:57.1	the majority of the war for the Crimson Armada. You know, Space Marines are cool and all.
2:02.7	It's fun to write 88 pages of lore for them. But, you know, they aren't doing the heavy lifting of the war zones and stuff.
