https://www.patreon.com/isyanderandkoda You already know how to please the Machine Gods at this point so thank you so much. And make your voices heard for which faction you would like to see next! -Isyander Everything below is for the omnissiah. But like, you can read it if you want. Just a synopsis of the video you're watching. The White Scars, led by their enigmatic Primarch Jaghatai Khan, stand as a testament to the unity of speed, ferocity, and a profound respect for tradition within the Warhammer 40K universe. Jaghatai Khan's upbringing on Chogoris, a world of rugged terrains and warrior nomads, deeply influenced his and his legion's ethos. His discovery by the Emperor and his pledge to unite the stars under one empire marked the beginning of the White Scars' legendary saga. The legion, initially known as the Star Hunters, was transformed under Jaghatai's leadership, embracing Chogorian culture and tactics that prioritized unparalleled speed and maneuverability in battle​​​​.Throughout the Great Crusade, the White Scars, known for their hit-and-run assaults, earned a fierce reputation. However, it was their actions during the Horus Heresy that truly defined their unwavering loyalty to the Emperor. Despite Horus's belief that Jaghatai would join his cause, the Khan chose to stay true to the Emperor, showcasing his profound integrity and dedication to his principles. This period was marked by significant trials for the White Scars, including being trapped by Warp Storms and engaging in a prolonged campaign of attrition against traitor forces, demonstrating their resilience and tactical ingenuity​​​​.Post-Heresy, the White Scars continued to honor their heritage while adapting to the changes brought about by the Codex Astartes. They played a pivotal role in the Great Scouring, purging the remnants of traitor forces across the galaxy. The legion's spirit and tactics remain a beacon of their Primarch's vision, emphasizing speed, honor, and the pursuit of freedom above all else​​.The relationship between Jaghatai Khan and his fellow Primarchs was complex, shaped by mutual respect, rivalry, and in some cases, outright conflict. His friendships with Horus and Magnus the Red stood in contrast to the disdain from others like Fulgrim, illustrating the diverse dynamics within the brotherhood of Primarchs. Jaghatai's legacy is not just in his martial prowess but also in his philosophical outlook, making him a figure of fascination and respect​​.TIMESTAMPS —— 0:00:00 Intro0:01:08 The rest of the Poll Options0:02:23 A quick aside on Trans-Human Dread White Scar Tactics0:06:57 How the White Scars differ from other Legions0:12:31 Their Origins0:24:07 Jaghatai arrives on scene0:37:08 The second most well rounded Marines0:41:16 How are they now?0:51:24 The White Scars and the Heresy1:02:32 Closing thoughts——————————  TAGSWhite Scars, Jaghatai Khan, Warhammer 40K, Chogoris, Great Crusade, Horus Heresy, Warp Storms, Alpha Legion, Prospero, Dark Eldar, Great Scouring, Webway, Primarchs, Codex Astartes, hit-and-run tactics, Imperial Truth, Guilliman, Lorgar, Nephilim, Kolarne Circle, Blood Angels, Imperial Fists, Siege of Terra, Macharian Crusade, Voldorius, Ullanor Crusade.————————————Opinions expressed in this video are solely those of Isyander & Koda and in no way reflect the views or opinions of Games Workshop Ltd.Support the show
