Subject: The history of The Imperium - The Musical!
This is a daft thread. And I want people to chip in with song recommendations which, without being tenuous, can sketch out a rough history of The Imperium.
Posts needn’t be chronological in recommendations. Just say which period of The Imperium’s History it’s meant to represent, and perhaps a wee line as to why. As ever, I’ll kick off.
Expect high levels of camp.
Pre-Unification, the onset of The Long Night
The Emperor begins the creation of the Primarchs
Erebus starts his wicked work
The Primarchs start to fall
After the Siege of Terra, Guilliman reforms The Imperium, and imposes the Codex Astartes
Right, this thread is now set out, and suitably camp. Over to you! Feel free to go anywhere from pre-unification to the modern day.

I know it’s not an especially hot topic thread, but love it all the same!
The Return of Robute Prime, to do to the Black Legion exactly what Optimus Guilliman did to the Decepticons, single handed, when he was resurrected
The Imperium, for basically all of its existence including the Unification Wars and Great Crusade “Golden Age”
The Silent King heads off on his self imposed exile, having singularly failed his species
Automatically Appended Next Post: Abaddon, disillusioned by the failed Rebellion, disgusted by Horus, forms the Black Legion
Automatically Appended Next Post: [b]The mockingly named Goliath’s realise their own worth, and begin their inexorable rise within the worst place upon the face of Necromunda[b]
Also a song on a GW compilation disc when I first got My Shot At Glory. It remains a firm favourite to this very day, because it inspired me to do better. The song, situation and encouragement, all of it,

Ahhhh, you know of the Ancients of Mumu? I always wanted their speaker stacks.

ARISE YE THREAD OF OLDE! Heed my words, dusty thread of nonsense.
For I am now, technically, an Eldar player. And I’m most certainly a Judas Priest Fan.
And so for the delectation of all the boys and girls and those who aren’t fussed either way not to mention those who feel they might make their mind up in due course?
I give you……..Exciter
Clearly a song that plays in the mind of every Eldar in proximity to an awakened Avatar of Khaine.
RAWK!!!

This time, the video is dedicated to The Scouring, and the magnificent efforts The Goodies to take back Dad’s land from the Baddies.
Also possibly the song that haunted Horus as soon as Angron’s pants on head insanity delayed the March to Terra, knowing those he’d tried to get as far away as possible we’re getting their butts into gear with vengeance in mind.
