Every time an Imperial air controller says "Incoming, Flight of Valkyries" the Emperor chuckles at a joke literally only he gets

Funny thing is I’m pretty sure the A-10’s cannon still exists in M41. The Avenger strike aircraft is pretty much the 40k A-10 because the entire aircraft is built around something called the “Avenger Bolt Cannon” which sounds like it turned the GAU-18 into a bolt weapon and I am 1000% here for it

"...as a special needs aircraft." so it's the short bus for Ogryn?

I can't wait for "Imperial Armor! The Battleships of the Imperial Navy" and the tiny lore tidbits like the art of thousands of serfs making a giant cog turn by "walking upstairs" for hours and hours

34:48 Remember in 40k Plasteel is a thing; Its light enough that as a steel alloy it can be used instead of aviation aluminium and the Chonky Leeman Russ MBT is only 60 metric tonnes (allegedly).

So a Valkyrie/Vulture/Vendetta variant's armor could be MUCH lighter than it would seem for a universal 75mm armor coverage...

"What's a vulture?"
This bird that was on earth 20,000 years ago
"And it looks like this plane?"
I donno

Some times it feels like GW simply has no interest in double checking some of the nubers they put on things like the amount of waight something can lift. And then we get to have fun speculating how that could be so still a win.

A Hunter-Killer is the Imperial lingo for self-guiding munitions, specifically what we call fire-and-forget missiles.

“Planes, Trains, and Automobiles” gets a gritty sci-fi reboot.

14:16 I remember back in the day when Hunter-Killer Missiles and Naval Torpedoes used crude and very singleminded AI assisted guidance systems and were some of the only sanctioned uses of AI In the Imperium.

I'm fairly certain that this got retconned into "Aggressive Machine Spirits" fairly quickly...

Fun is having 6 Vendetta gunships slap a WARHOUND off the table turn one. Or having a Vendetta harpooned out of the  sky. Using Valkyries to reenact Blackhawk Down, but with Geanstealers. There were no survivors.

I sometimes like to imagine Arch giving these talks/lectures to a room full of Imperial Officers still in training at their academy, as well as the absolute befuddlement on their faces as he repeatedly mentions and references events, vehicles and technology from the 20th and 21st Century lol

Vendetta crews to astartes, ah yes my lord you are indeed mighty but do you BRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT?

The Hunter-Killer Missile knows where it is because it knows where it isn't.

["Favored Scion" blaring over the Valkyrie's loudspeakers]
Door gunner: Anyone who runs is a heretic! Anyone who stands still is a well-disciplined heretic!

Never was a big fan of the flying boxes, but the vulture with that central turbine has to be one of the sexiest aircraft in james workshop's arsenal.

1 idea for a video is how does an astartes become a tactical or devastator or any other type of marine? Do they choose their favourite weapon or is it chosen for them?

I know you love logistics and also what happens when a marine does something worthy of promotion but no position is available? Just questions that you have yet to cover about the coolest thing the imperium can send against their enemies.

I always think the Valkyries as being like Russians helicopters transport. Being able to get troops there and support them.

"A valkyrie D. Shas´o, what is an imperial gunship doing here?!"

“TRAITORS DON’T SURF!”
