The Death And Return Of Yarrick Was A DISASTER! | Warhammer 40K

Thank you Into the AM for these Amazing Graphic Tees. Get yours today and get 10% off site-wide when you use this link http://intotheam.com/weshammer In this video, I break down how and why Games Workshop fumbled the death and return of Commissar Yarrick. From his sudden removal in the 9th Edition Astra Militarum codex to his miraculous revival in the the Return to Armageddon trailer with no story in between, this felt less like a meaningful story and more like a manipulative marketing tactic designed to boost sales at the cost of franchise's integrity. I’ll explain why Yarrick’s “death” mattered, how it could have strengthened Warhammer 40K’s narrative, and why his return ultimately feels unearned. We’ll also dive into larger issues like plot armor in 40K, the relationship between lore and model sales, and what this situation says about the future of storytelling in the setting. If you care about Warhammer 40K lore, narrative stakes, and the long-term health of the franchise, this is a conversation worth having. ⭐ Weshammer Merch store Here ⭐ https://shop.weshammer.com/ Special Thanks to my patrons over on Patreon   / weshammer   Find more of my Shorts over on my Tiktok https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdhNbAva/ Join us over on DIscord!   / discord   My amazing Editors @ServitorDominusPrime    / @servitordominusprime   @Dutch40KGuy The Gaming story teller    / @dutch40kguy   time stamps 0:00 Intro 3:27 The Story of Old Bale Eye 10:34 The Death Of Commissar Yarrick 14:52 Why Yarrick's Return is Bad for 40k 26:12 Why Did GW Do All This? 30:46 My Problem With The New Trailer. 40:16 Bonus Segment They explained everything guys! *if your artwork is featured in one of my videos and you would like an art credit added to the description, please message me on discord. or just "@" me in the comments.
