Grimaldus' Speech on Helsreach. I ask you now: Do you know me?' After a century of faithful service, Grimaldus was elevated to the esteemed role of Reclusiarch of the Chapter and accompanied High Marshal Helbrecht to the war-torn world of Armageddon in 998.M41, to stop a massive invasion of that strategic Hive World by the Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. Pausing to notice he should be dead and hitting the ground. The bilious bastards who write that stuff for the Saturday Evening Postdon't know any more about real battle than they do about fucking. 'That time of judgement is upon you. I.e. Grimaldus receives the rank of Reclusiarch and his squad of knights is introduced. But perhaps I should make a new one, solely for the purpose of videos like these. See the scrap fleet that sails into your port, bearing a horde of howling beasts.

My knowledge on his speech comes from 1d4chan and the “Helsreach” animated series made by Richard Boylan. Let hatred fill you. Why, by God, I actually pity these poor bastards we're going up against. We are judged in life for the evil we destroy". Then, an enemy who thought the battle won will find himself beset once more, smashed asunder by a tide of zealots whose arms have been lent fresh strength, Grimaldus at their head carving another victory for his Emperor. Those who welcome these gifts may live, but I will visit naught but death and eternal damnation on those who refuse them. Because giant armoured killing machines need some moments of levity, too. 'That was a stern talking-to, no? He always refuses. The Arch-Arsonist of Charadon (the Ork warlord attacking the planet) continually broadcasts his speeches of triumph and terror to the populace...failing to realize that his intended audience doesn't speak Orkish. I hope you all enjoy listening to this, as much as I enjoyed making it... and I pray I have not sullied the proud name of Grimaldus.

Their duty done, the Black Templars pulled their forces back into the walls of the hive city. That said, if you're interested in reading it, your best bet is the Armageddon omnibus, which collects both Helsreach and Blood and Fire for basically the same price as Helsreach on its own.
His rise through the ranks of the Chapter was meteoric, for he once stood as the youngest Sword Brother in the Chapter’s history. \"Helsreach\" is a Warhammer 40.000 novel written by Aaron Dembski-Bowden and in it is one of the most memorable speeches in any WH40K novel.So naturally, I had to try and do that!MP3 Download - http://www.mediafire.com/file/wl9raw51nn3wlf7/Warhammer_40.000_-_Grimaldus%27_Speech_on_Helsreach.mp3If you enjoyed it, throw a like my way! To the ignorant I bring faith. They will fall because of you. 'Sons and daughters of Hive Helsreach,' the voice boomed across the shore districts, too low and resonant to be human, flavoured by the slight crackle of vox-corruption. The men ask Andrej if he'd do something like give a speech. For several seconds, the people of Helsreach heard nothing but breathing - low, heavy, threatening - over the vox-speakers.
