You all need to know. Leandros being suspicious is a key quality for a chaplain. It also means Leandros will never advance in rank to command his own company, join the Victrix guard or earn a place as a Tetrarch. He will never join the honour guard, and despite being a Space Marine his brothers will allways be hesitant in his presence, his donning of the Emperors black distancing him somewhat from the brotherhood Marines usually enjoy. The Chapter put Leandros exactly where he was supposed to be. And the moment Demitrian Titus becomes Captain again, Leandros will be subservient to him once more. As it should be. Glory to Ultramar, Courage and Honour.
"Fierce was my wrath when I learned of your detention, so fierce in fact that Leandros suffered no consequences for reporting you to the inquisition in violation of the codex"
@@rorokevo4 And I believe also had his identity completely changed because Blackshields normally can't speak yet we see Titus speaking or at least attempting to speak to his squadmates via Vox.
You can tell by the look on his face he loathes titus and likely despises everything about what just happened. In otherwords he never changed and became an even worse prick
We can see that the feeling is mutual, Titus seems to loathe him. At one point in the game, one of Titus’s squad mates says that the codex doesn’t support the course of action he’s taking and Titus just stares at him like he wants to throw him out of the Thunderhawk.
I don't get the impression that Leandros became worse. After the astropath who accused Titus of heresy got killed, Leandros from SM1 would instantly lose his shit and try to get Titus punished. In SM2 he questions the squad and harshly rebukes them, but lets them go on their way. Chaplain Laendros seems less whiny and insubordinate, he's more like a very ruthless but still fair supervisor who considers it his duty to always ensure Titus never goes bad. Though there's obviously still a grudge between him and Titus that will likely never heal.
The two Black Templars that arrested Titus at the ending of SM1: BT1: Did that guy became a Chaplain? Really? BT2: Ultramarines are so weird, man. If one of us snitches to the Inquisition instead of the chapter, Grimaldus himself will fucking kill us.
@@Guo1234bob They might be zealots, but they don't like the Inquisition. At best, they work together when the interests align, such as hunting down heretics for example.
I love Titus and his single eyebrow raise the moment Leandros' helmet comes up. Like "Ahh, this explains all the double speak you've been giving me since I returned."
@@sliestwheel nah. Leandros becoming a Chaplain makes sense to me. Chaplains HAVE to have sticks up their butts and few Ultramarines have such a stick as Leandros's
well this game does a lot to give people reason to hate him without needing to learn his past actions. Throughout this game he was basically just looking for a reason to put down Titus. Knowing his identity now, it explains why he was always watching Titus even before he woke up from his revival. Leandros still holds deep suspicion on Titus to a point it has developed into a form of hatred.
I mean he does suck, so hard. And in the lore primer before the game he supposedly got sanctioned for running to the inquisitor and claiming that his captain was corrupted by Chaos, and Calgar spent years trying to get Titus back. The inquisition even knows that the inquisitor in question was a psycho and died Possessed by a demon and when they went through his stuff he had like 40 loyal space marines in cryo tubes. Titus was confirmed “not tainted” by the Grey knights and his “dishonor” is a fiction the inquisition spun out to keep Titus from trying to go back home. The chapter never bought it and the only people that referred to it as dishonor are people who don’t know what happened and Leandro’s who still sucks because his only role in either game is to be “ the one guy who doesn’t like the main character”. His character was and continues to be trash
@@grubb2103he is a slippery,book wormy,spineless son of a bitch who is a true disgrace and disrespect to Ultramar,Gulliman and to the whole Adeptus Astartes.

His existence *purely disgusts me*
Leoandros isn't a bad guy nor did he violate the Codex. LT. Titus is still an anomaly, lore-wise nobody should be able to stand the confluence of chaos. It's a miracle and still left unexplained. Despite all the unfair bs he endured, it's a message that conveys faith and loyalty despite being unappreciated.
Turbo-nerd subordinate. I get why his fanatical ass would end up a chaplain. Seems to misunderstand that the Codex Astartes is a framework, a guideline. Guilliman himself gets annoyed when people act like it's the end-all be-all tactical doctrine.
To be fair, Guilliman came from a time where a tactical handbook guide was ya know a handbook lol he didn't think they would take a handbook and make it a holy divine text. Imagine not changing tactics or adapting for 10,000 years ew lol.
Come the DLC or SM3 and we get a scene of Leandros telling the G-man himself that he’s not following the codex. Or he gets in argument with other chapters own way of following the codex.
I mean one of the core parts of 40k is the perversion of original commandments. The emperor himself does not want to be seen as a god. Thousands of years of war do that.
@@GM-lx7ji I would pay good money to see Leandros tell off a Black Templar or a Space Wolf on their ideas about the Codex. I imagine that Leandros would find it painfully educational.
@@corvusalbus7276Is that even possible? I mean the whole underlying purpose of the Astartes chaplaincy is to keep chapters loyal to the Emperor. Each has their own little quirks, like the DA has the "hold my beer Night Lord" chaplains, but a chaplain getting corrupted wouldn't make sense, right?
I wonder if that's why he opperates mostly solo he just says that shit openly and noone can really accuse him of insubordination or heresy so they just banish him to the realm of kickass
I had the exact same reaction. I wonder if they have considered giving a full length movie another go: the cutscenes I have scene from have sold me on the idea as well as the game itself.

Everyone was fussing over an Ultramarine Captain being accused of heresy but nobody was watching as the Blood Ravens made off with the Forge World's entire Titan stock.
Shows how much you know, since it's shown ingame that Space Marine 1 takes place after Retribution, and confirmed the Blood Ravens purged the heresy within their chapter. Also, just because someone has an impeccable record does not change that they can and have been corrupted. Hell, if one qualifies the Ultramarines movie as canon its happened before with a previous Captain of the 2nd Company even if it was Daemon possession, one should not blindly ignore signs. Was Leandros overzealous? Yes. But Titus himself admits in SM2's campaign that he should've addressed his concerns before it got out of hand leading Leandros to feel that he had no recourse but to contact the Inquisition since they were the first available option, what with there being no Chaplains around. That same refusal to address concerns almost gets Titus killed by Gadriel in SM2 as well, and he acknowledges it as a flaw in his own character. SM2 has made it clear that Leandros vs Titus in SM1 was not as black and white as it seemed to we, the omniscient audience members who obviously know Titus isn't corrupt.
Mission let Leandros be a causality of war. Like whoops suddenly this chaplain just happened to be lost in the warp or left in a Tyranid fleet or being shot in the head by the Fallen and there was absolutely no way at all we could have blocked that.
@@haoo549 Nah, drop him in Tzeench's piece of the warp and let the fucker go mad for eternity. After how we fucked with his plans the poor bird deserves at least to torture this bookworm (Or maybe it was Tzeench's plans to get some justice for Titus all along)
One morning Chaplain Leandros found that the padding of his helmet got replaced with C40. It was the last thing he ever noticed. Lt. Titus was not suspected of any involvement as halfe a regiment of Cadians and Catachans as well as multiple Ecclesiarchy preachers reported that he had joined them in prayer during an all day vigil.
@@quangphung9396there was no point of reconciliation between the two, so Leandros is still suspicious of Titus. They both could spend years making good (by WH40 standards), but it wouldn’t mend the trust issues borne on Graia
@@solinvictus2045Secret level is a new animated series featuring games from Sony and I think will air in november. So it's highly possible and would love to see that shit
I will point out for all his GLARING flaws... The Chaplain is still doing his job. No matter the Beef between Titus and Leandros... He recognizes the skill and power Titus has. He is the one who recommended his former captain to Calgar, after all. He's promising to keep him on the path, and is ready to strike him down the moment he becomes a danger. This is likely the closest we'll get to Leandros conceding ANYTHING to Titus. And that's actually rather surprising, considering the character.
leandros is more in danger of falling that titus because his belief is to rigid. Chaplains are the warrior-priests that minister to the spiritual and psychological well-being of their fellow battle-brothers, instilling in them the values and beliefs of the Chapter. so ultrasmurfs promoted a marine who sold one of his own to the inquisition and make him the person in charge spiritual and psychological wellbeing of the chapter. yeah right not going to happen or else the chapter master is a total dribbling idiot.
Tech marines are too busy mission to complete the deep hibernation rituals, maybe? Light sleep in the hangar sufficient until the incantations performed and holy seals re-anointed for proper dreadnaught cold storage
After the first game, the developer went out of business, and the IPs they owned were stuck in limbo for a long time. Intellectual Property can be complicated and expensive, so a lot of companies don't bother salvaging things that are stuck in a legal grey zone. Warhammer became more popular in recent years, so it became worth the risk. Of course what they should have done is gone straight to GW to a new spinoff IP.
Chaplains ARE permitted to remove their helmets, only to Captains and I believe Chapter-Masters, he probably did it either A: under order from Calgar (something you can't ignore and know he's watching) or B: out of a form of respect for his former Captain since even he admits at the beginning of the game that despite everything he was accused of, he never faltered in his loyalty, in his devotion.
@@mattaffenit9898 Only the blind hating would jump to such a conclusion, maybe instead of holding a grudge like some petty wannabe Dwarve, you'll see how Leandros is behaving after all this time! He's not the same gun jumping private he was when he made that original accusation, he's waiting for ACTUAL evidence this time and because Titus was his former captain him removing his helmet can be seen as him respecting what Titus once was or as mentioned Calgar ordered him to remove it to Titus and because he's already being watched by both the Chapter-Master and numerous other Chaplains, he's in no position to deny such an order! Even at the start of the game the Chaplain points out that even after all the time Titus spent in the Deathwatch, he never faltered in his devotion, the Chaplain even told him to his face, "in order to be fully redeemed, you need to prove yourself to your brothers" that's Leandros himself saying that. He might still be suspicious about his immunity but he's still willing to give him that second chance Titus himself feels like he didn't deserve.
This guy sent Titus to the inquisition for a century, the guys who will wipe entire populations on suspicion admits to him they found no taint in him, watched personally as he saved two worlds. Has the trust and respect of their own chapter master. And he's goes "I can't trust you." Are we sure he isn't a dark angel because someone mixed up the gene-seeds?
He would make for a great inquisitor: -an asshole, vigilant and tough on others. But he is already a space marine, so he had to settle for the second closest role.
To be fair, not trusting others is kind of a Chaplain's job. They're very agressive psychologists and spiritual guiders. As in if you feel bad or your faith faulters they will yell at you and recite litanies until moral improves. If that fails, the beating starts until moral improves. Not saying he's unreasonable for seemingly holding a grudge, but he at least could admit he was wrong about Titus, but from his perspective, Titus have now twice been directy exposed to way more warp than most marines can handle and came out fine. I can understand why he is suspicious, even if he is unreasonable.
@@Rodoet001 I am almost fucking certain Calgar has been exposed to the Warp way longer than the average Marine should ever be as well. Following this incredibly stupid line of logic, Calgar should thus be prime suspect number one in any Heresy allegations, no? I mean, he's directly fought Abbadon, I forgot the name of the Greater Daemon he killed, but he's killed one before. Strange that Leandros doesn't target him, huh?
@@darthnox8286 One, not stupid logic for 40k setting. Two, because Calgar is a Chapter Master, that's why Leandros doesn't suspect him. Hell, remember that Leandros is highly rigid, believes in the codex by word, and is clearly zealous. It makes more sense that he *doesn't* suspect Calgar of Warp taint. He's practically a saint according to their beliefs and is reveared by the Ultramarines only second to Guilliman. He is _expected_ to be able to face warp and be fine. Meanwhile Titus was a captain who was already clashing with Leandros who we know is orthodox and rigid as fucking evident by the first game. Is it hypocritical? 100%. Welcome to 40k, that's the way they roll around here.
Given that they went the road of Leandros learning to be slightly less suspecting (he's still "watching" titus but not outright accusing him, and in fact admits he seems to be ok atm), they will likely instead try to redeem him by, say, making him die heroically
...So you're telling me that Calgar made FUCKING LEANDROS A CHAPLAIN????????? "Fierce was my wrath" my ass. Should have taken it out on the rat that snitched on Titus.
@@germanmandalorian3514 Helsreach novel seems to address this. The will of the high chaplain and other officers are seriously considered. But the Chapter Master has the final say
Maybe it's Calgar's way of punishing Leandros who clearly violated the codex himself. He's probably like: "Oh you love the Codex so much? How about you learn to become a Chaplain? You know, the one YOU should've consulted before turning your own captain to the FUCKING INQUISITION?!"
@@ExcaleaTitus: I have suspicions that one of my men is tainted by chaos. Perhaps I shall snitch on them to the inquisition. Leandros: Titus you need to report these things to me! Titus: Oh really I should report them to you and not the inquisition? Now where does that sound familiar?
One of the interesting things I did notice in these interactions that Titus has with Leandros is that Leandros doesn't necessarily seem to hate him. He's suspicious of him, but that's literally a Chaplain's whole thing. He recommends him for what seems to be a high priority, high importance mission (notably, even Calgar seems to be a little surprised by this), seems to be genuinely pleased to see Titus survive the Rubicon surgery in the beginning, and also seems satisfied that Titus regained his place in the Chapter. He only seems to get hostile when there's Chaos shenanigans about, and considering that's what he turned Titus in for in the first place, that makes sense and, notably, he levels that animosity at Chairon and Gadriel in those talks, too. I wouldn't necessarily say that Leandros likes him by any means, but I don't think there's necessarily unfiltered hate on Leandros' end either.
While I'm glad he didn't turn Chaos, this is a much worse fate. The Snitch is going to be up Titus' ass until he dies or Bobby G himself tells him to chill.
As is required of a Chaplain. People forget that the Imperium in general and Space Marines in specific are not good people. They are hateful, cruel, violent zealots that were directly inspired by the idealized version of a fascist goon. The Imperium can only be seen as good in comparison to the forces of Chaos.
@@joefloggg3257 is now forced to obey the codex to the letter AND watched closely by the whole Chapter, AND he will probably get reminded over and over that he got the position by disobeying codex. Given that he now at least admits Titus deserves second chance and "redemption", it seems to be working.
At the company my dad worked for, problematic employees were "promoted" to roles that had no possibility of career advancement. This has that same energy
Leandros is gonna fall to chaos, i call it. Angry at the Chapter for not disposing of Titus, despite (for him) clear connections to the warp. He did was he was told, maybe a bit to eager (should have told the chapter master, not directly the inquisition) and yet Titus still walks. Envy at Titus, because even with the chains of shame, he's beeing an awesome soldier, receiving honors that Leandros most likely would wish to gain himself and defying the odds again and again. The only thing missing now is a little tzeentchian voice whispering in his ear "Isn't it unfair? You follow the codex astartes by heart, obey it's very law. Yet here this traitor walks in honor, while you are forgotten and overlooked... Let me help you expose him for what he really is" and Leandros falters. Could very well be that Leandros is allready an Agent of Chaos, specifically asking for Titus to be part of this mission with the intent of exposing him.
I don't think so. He's too much of a brainwashed automaton at this point to even consider chaos. It'd be way more fitting to see him just die stupidly and humiliatingly to some random enemy in the DLC because he comprehend thing that isn't BOOK.
@@xanmontes8715 ... Oh shit, you're right. First game was Khorne, this was Tzeentch, Nurgle's well and truly covered by Fatshark's games, if they make a third it might well be Slaanesh. Tzeentch could tempt him easily, but in theory so could the one whose domain is excess, the desire for _more,_ which in theory could include what Leandros wants. Especially if he's envious.
I really hope that we get a story continuation where its revealed this was all a plan to get Leandros alone and its just an hour long "quick-time event" of Titus beating Leandros' ass.
considering how mad Calgar was about it, Leandros most likely had to review the entire codex from the ground up as his punishment as way to constantly remind him how badly he screwed up the rest of his life and how much most of the Ultramarines probably hate him for what he did.

The last Ultramarine that Titus sees before being taken by Inquisition? Leandros. The first one to welcome him home and performs rites to return his colours? the same. Also, he is a Chaplain now. He starts to breath down Titus' neck after first mission with Chaos presence and also puts pressure on his squadmate after the Astropath incident, for trying to fight him. He likely gives the same treatment for every battlebrother in Company after every encounter with Chaos. He is strict, but I think he has gained some wisdom after century. It appears that he might have defended Titus and recommended his return to the Chapter after the prologue, he is always strict face to face but he won't speak ill of you behind your back. Not a pleasant fellow to be around, but you can trust him to be professional.
I'm pretty sure I remember reading in a space marines codex (it might've been 5th or 6th edition codex) that chaplains are forbidden from removing their helmets due to them needing to be anonymous to their brothers
I suspect Leandros was pursuaded to don the black of the Chaplain when Calgar found out who reported Titus...fitting. Chaplains cannot command or move beyond their station, along with eternally being distant from their fellow Battle-Brothers. He was overly suspicious and skirted the Codex, now he will remain eternally suspicious in administering it.
If it makes anyone feel better, I've heard theories that Leandros became a Chaplain more as a punishment than a promotion. The theory goes that after Leandros handed Titus over to the Inquisition-something that, despite him referencing the Codex Astartes, he was absolutely *not* supposed to fucking do-he obviously got in trouble for it. They couldn't get rid of him since he was still of use, but any trust he had with the rest of his brothers, any chance he had for promotion, like perhaps getting Titus' rank in the future, effectively went up in smoke. As for his punishment, he was trained as a Chaplain, which is the person who he actually should have gone to if he had any suspicions about Titus, instead of to the Inquisition. While there, absolutely no one would like him. He'd be treated the worst out of all the candidates, and if he didn't know the rules before, he'd sure as hell know them by the end it. He'd eventually make it out as a Chaplain, but at a heavy cost, and would have to build up his reputation from the ground up. Or maybe he didn’t. I’m not sure. I definitly know if what the game has to show about trust between the Ultramarines, there would be few willing to watch his back in a fight.
I haven't played this game yet, and I've not played the original in many years. Yet I still felt a visceral hate when that helmet came off and I realised who it was. Fuck that guy.
Honestly, I had a feeling that the chaplain was Leandros all along. It was a good twist, and I'm looking forward to seeing how things will play out from here.
I never have thought Leandros would become a Chaplain of all things. I thought that maybe he may have died somewhere, learning too late that Titus' actions have been right. I think he became a Chaplain due to his penchant for others to be loyal and pure of purpose The question remains whether he's been chastised by Calgar or Guilliman himself before. Perhaps here, he'd actually see the proper actions of Titus. Now seeing this, it is poetic: Leandros had outed Titus before, how he's the one, despite from the orders of Calgar and maybe assurance from Tigurius, to reinstate Titus back into the Ultramarines and has seen the merit of his actions.
@@jalpat2272 Yup. Diomedes saw that he fucked up, and took measures to atone, but still guide his brothers with his natural Ham. Leandros fucked up, and somehow got promoted.
You can truly tell that Calgar's acknowledgement of Titus' devotion and incorruptible nature meant a lot to him. He truly is an Ultramarine and would die a thousand deaths to prove his allegiance. It naturally also offends him to hear Leandros' unshakeable suspicion. Though it is still understandable from Leandros, and probably even respectable to some degree, that he retains his suspicion given Titus' resistance to Chaos without being a Blank. However he could still be a latent psycher, with a mind of steel in the same way that Grey Knights have. They can also resist the touch of Chaos, but they are not necessarily more special than any regular Space Marine biologically.. or at least any Librarian. In my mind Titus is simply an would-be Grey Knight or Librarian that just never awoke his powers.. and is strong enough to resist the temptations even without the specific training. If he had gotten the tailored training he'd be legendary amongst either groups.
the chaplaincy has its own command structure separate of the chaptermaster, it wouldnt surprise me if leandros joined it to escape the harshest of the potential punishments
Leandros should not have gotten any promotion like that, at best he should have been just another first borne among the primaris or have died in between games cause his ridged codex worship got him killed
Leandros is the perfect chaplain, they are supposed to be fanatical and suspicious to the point of being assholes, I think he got the position that was the most beneficial to the chapter after everything that happened.
So I hope they will continue to make Space Marine a series like it was originally planned. With each game having a different enemy of the Imperium. The only ones left are the Tau, Eldar, and Necrons. I think the Necrons would have to be saved for last though. And of course putting Chaos in each game.
@@richardtouchstone5508 maybe there can be a story work-around where one of your teammates kills him, causing him to come back with your teammate’s moves as well. He can kind of act as a pursuer-type boss fight. And since Titus has weird warp-resistance, he can resist Lucius’ possession, which can make for a pretty cool mental battle. I’m just spitballing, though.
@@Ssosmooth69 yeah, the possession thing really limits options. It sucks since Lucius from what I heard has been annoying since Horus Heresy. I never read any of the Lore but the Lore videos I have seem and read while looking him up. He is a supposed to be an exceptional duelist but his main thing is “Oh I can’t really die since Slaanesh lets be possess the one that kills me”. Which the possession has gotten ridiculous since he possessed a factory worker who created the mine that he stepped on which killed him, all because the factory worker felt pride in his work.

Befitting for a Chaplain, indeed.
I don't get the impression that Leandros became worse. After the astropath who accused Titus of heresy got killed, Leandros from SM1 would instantly lose his shit and try to get Titus punished. In SM2 he questions the squad and harshly rebukes them, but lets them go on their way. Chaplain Laendros seems less whiny and insubordinate, he's more like a very ruthless but still fair supervisor who considers it his duty to always ensure Titus never goes bad. Though there's obviously still a grudge between him and Titus that will likely never heal.

well this game does a lot to give people reason to hate him without needing to learn his past actions. Throughout this game he was basically just looking for a reason to put down Titus. Knowing his identity now, it explains why he was always watching Titus even before he woke up from his revival. Leandros still holds deep suspicion on Titus to a point it has developed into a form of hatred.
@@orrthehunterTzeentch gleefully rubbing his hands...
I mean he does suck, so hard. And in the lore primer before the game he supposedly got sanctioned for running to the inquisitor and claiming that his captain was corrupted by Chaos, and Calgar spent years trying to get Titus back. The inquisition even knows that the inquisitor in question was a psycho and died
Possessed by a demon and when they went through his stuff he had like 40 loyal space marines in cryo tubes. Titus was confirmed “not tainted” by the Grey knights and his “dishonor” is a fiction the inquisition spun out to keep Titus from trying to go back home. The chapter never bought it and the only people that referred to it as dishonor are people who don’t know what happened and Leandro’s who still sucks because his only role in either game is to be “ the one guy who doesn’t like the main character”. His character was and continues to be trash

10/10 chaplain and inquistorial lapdog.
Space Marine is set post DOW Retribution
Blood Ravens clearly has a history with Inquisition They are Inquisition's "our men"
Everyone was fussing over an Ultramarine Captain being accused of heresy but nobody was watching as the Blood Ravens made off with the Forge World's entire Titan stock.
Shows how much you know, since it's shown ingame that Space Marine 1 takes place after Retribution, and confirmed the Blood Ravens purged the heresy within their chapter.
Also, just because someone has an impeccable record does not change that they can and have been corrupted. Hell, if one qualifies the Ultramarines movie as canon its happened before with a previous Captain of the 2nd Company even if it was Daemon possession, one should not blindly ignore signs.
Was Leandros overzealous? Yes. But Titus himself admits in SM2's campaign that he should've addressed his concerns before it got out of hand leading Leandros to feel that he had no recourse but to contact the Inquisition since they were the first available option, what with there being no Chaplains around. That same refusal to address concerns almost gets Titus killed by Gadriel in SM2 as well, and he acknowledges it as a flaw in his own character.
SM2 has made it clear that Leandros vs Titus in SM1 was not as black and white as it seemed to we, the omniscient audience members who obviously know Titus isn't corrupt.

He is the one who recommended his former captain to Calgar, after all. He's promising to keep him on the path, and is ready to strike him down the moment he becomes a danger.
This is likely the closest we'll get to Leandros conceding ANYTHING to Titus. And that's actually rather surprising, considering the character.
EXACTLY
leandros is more in danger of falling that titus because his belief is to rigid. Chaplains are the warrior-priests that minister to the spiritual and psychological well-being of their fellow battle-brothers, instilling in them the values and beliefs of the Chapter. so ultrasmurfs promoted a marine who sold one of his own to the inquisition and make him the person in charge spiritual and psychological wellbeing of the chapter. yeah right not going to happen or else the chapter master is a total dribbling idiot.

After the first game, the developer went out of business, and the IPs they owned were stuck in limbo for a long time. Intellectual Property can be complicated and expensive, so a lot of companies don't bother salvaging things that are stuck in a legal grey zone. Warhammer became more popular in recent years, so it became worth the risk. Of course what they should have done is gone straight to GW to a new spinoff IP.

At this point, what did you expect?
Chaplains ARE permitted to remove their helmets, only to Captains and I believe Chapter-Masters, he probably did it either A: under order from Calgar (something you can't ignore and know he's watching) or B: out of a form of respect for his former Captain since even he admits at the beginning of the game that despite everything he was accused of, he never faltered in his loyalty, in his devotion.

Eeeeeey, this is one of them shitposts isn't it?
@@mattaffenit9898 Only the blind hating would jump to such a conclusion, maybe instead of holding a grudge like some petty wannabe Dwarve, you'll see how Leandros is behaving after all this time! He's not the same gun jumping private he was when he made that original accusation, he's waiting for ACTUAL evidence this time and because Titus was his former captain him removing his helmet can be seen as him respecting what Titus once was or as mentioned Calgar ordered him to remove it to Titus and because he's already being watched by both the Chapter-Master and numerous other Chaplains, he's in no position to deny such an order!
Even at the start of the game the Chaplain points out that even after all the time Titus spent in the Deathwatch, he never faltered in his devotion, the Chaplain even told him to his face, "in order to be fully redeemed, you need to prove yourself to your brothers" that's Leandros himself saying that. He might still be suspicious about his immunity but he's still willing to give him that second chance Titus himself feels like he didn't deserve.
This guy sent Titus to the inquisition for a century, the guys who will wipe entire populations on suspicion admits to him they found no taint in him, watched personally as he saved two worlds. Has the trust and respect of their own chapter master.
And he's goes "I can't trust you."
Are we sure he isn't a dark angel because someone mixed up the gene-seeds?
He would make for a great inquisitor: -an asshole, vigilant and tough on others. But he is already a space marine, so he had to settle for the second closest role.
To be fair, not trusting others is kind of a Chaplain's job. They're very agressive psychologists and spiritual guiders. As in if you feel bad or your faith faulters they will yell at you and recite litanies until moral improves. If that fails, the beating starts until moral improves. Not saying he's unreasonable for seemingly holding a grudge, but he at least could admit he was wrong about Titus, but from his perspective, Titus have now twice been directy exposed to way more warp than most marines can handle and came out fine. I can understand why he is suspicious, even if he is unreasonable.
@@Rodoet001 I am almost fucking certain Calgar has been exposed to the Warp way longer than the average Marine should ever be as well. Following this incredibly stupid line of logic, Calgar should thus be prime suspect number one in any Heresy allegations, no?
I mean, he's directly fought Abbadon, I forgot the name of the Greater Daemon he killed, but he's killed one before. Strange that Leandros doesn't target him, huh?
@@darthnox8286 One, not stupid logic for 40k setting. Two, because Calgar is a Chapter Master, that's why Leandros doesn't suspect him. Hell, remember that Leandros is highly rigid, believes in the codex by word, and is clearly zealous. It makes more sense that he *doesn't* suspect Calgar of Warp taint. He's practically a saint according to their beliefs and is reveared by the Ultramarines only second to Guilliman. He is _expected_ to be able to face warp and be fine. Meanwhile Titus was a captain who was already clashing with Leandros who we know is orthodox and rigid as fucking evident by the first game.
Is it hypocritical? 100%. Welcome to 40k, that's the way they roll around here.
he alpha legion for sure
This is the second time space marine ends with titas boarding a gun ship being within 100 m of leandros
But that also means leandros is within a 100 meters of a bolt to the head
Leandross falling to the chaos gods over his suspicion turned hatred of titus...
Man cannot wait for Space Marine 3.
Given that they went the road of Leandros learning to be slightly less suspecting (he's still "watching" titus but not outright accusing him, and in fact admits he seems to be ok atm), they will likely instead try to redeem him by, say, making him die heroically
Imagine if they trolled all of us and made calgar turn to chaos
Me: Mom can I have a Grimaldus?
Mom: No we have a Grimaldus at home.
Grimaldus at home: ...
saying that Leandros is Grimaldus rip-off is actually an insults towards the rip-off itself, it's should actually considered as Heresy.
Now that's insulting. Grimaldus never sold out anybody to become chaplain.
It's nice that they made Leandros an ally, AND kept him an asshole xD
...So you're telling me that Calgar made FUCKING LEANDROS A CHAPLAIN?????????
"Fierce was my wrath" my ass. Should have taken it out on the rat that snitched on Titus.
Did a Chaper Master have a Word in this Matter? The choosing of a Chaplain is surley the Work of the high chaplain/Boss Chaplain?
On the guy who violated the rules, even. Leandros should've reported it internally, not to the inquisition.
@@germanmandalorian3514 Helsreach novel seems to address this. The will of the high chaplain and other officers are seriously considered. But the Chapter Master has the final say
Maybe it's Calgar's way of punishing Leandros who clearly violated the codex himself. He's probably like: "Oh you love the Codex so much? How about you learn to become a Chaplain? You know, the one YOU should've consulted before turning your own captain to the FUCKING INQUISITION?!"
@@ExcaleaTitus: I have suspicions that one of my men is tainted by chaos. Perhaps I shall snitch on them to the inquisition.
Leandros: Titus you need to report these things to me!
Titus: Oh really I should report them to you and not the inquisition? Now where does that sound familiar?
One of the interesting things I did notice in these interactions that Titus has with Leandros is that Leandros doesn't necessarily seem to hate him. He's suspicious of him, but that's literally a Chaplain's whole thing. He recommends him for what seems to be a high priority, high importance mission (notably, even Calgar seems to be a little surprised by this), seems to be genuinely pleased to see Titus survive the Rubicon surgery in the beginning, and also seems satisfied that Titus regained his place in the Chapter. He only seems to get hostile when there's Chaos shenanigans about, and considering that's what he turned Titus in for in the first place, that makes sense and, notably, he levels that animosity at Chairon and Gadriel in those talks, too. I wouldn't necessarily say that Leandros likes him by any means, but I don't think there's necessarily unfiltered hate on Leandros' end either.
It really feels sometimes like he wants to be benevolent patron to Titus, that will not blink the instant Titus will fall to chaos.
4:53
So the snitch is still alive......dammit.
While I'm glad he didn't turn Chaos, this is a much worse fate. The Snitch is going to be up Titus' ass until he dies or Bobby G himself tells him to chill.
As is required of a Chaplain. People forget that the Imperium in general and Space Marines in specific are not good people. They are hateful, cruel, violent zealots that were directly inspired by the idealized version of a fascist goon.
The Imperium can only be seen as good in comparison to the forces of Chaos.
Arguably not even then.

Leandros is gonna fall to chaos, i call it.
Angry at the Chapter for not disposing of Titus, despite (for him) clear connections to the warp.
He did was he was told, maybe a bit to eager (should have told the chapter master, not directly the inquisition) and yet Titus still walks.
Envy at Titus, because even with the chains of shame, he's beeing an awesome soldier, receiving honors that Leandros most likely would wish to gain himself and defying the odds again and again.
The only thing missing now is a little tzeentchian voice whispering in his ear "Isn't it unfair? You follow the codex astartes by heart, obey it's very law. Yet here this traitor walks in honor, while you are forgotten and overlooked... Let me help you expose him for what he really is" and Leandros falters.
Could very well be that Leandros is allready an Agent of Chaos, specifically asking for Titus to be part of this mission with the intent of exposing him.
the codex astartes does not support this action
I can see a Slaanesh daemonette getting him to fall.

Also, he is a Chaplain now. He starts to breath down Titus' neck after first mission with Chaos presence and also puts pressure on his squadmate after the Astropath incident, for trying to fight him. He likely gives the same treatment for every battlebrother in Company after every encounter with Chaos. He is strict, but I think he has gained some wisdom after century.
It appears that he might have defended Titus and recommended his return to the Chapter after the prologue, he is always strict face to face but he won't speak ill of you behind your back. Not a pleasant fellow to be around, but you can trust him to be professional.

Leandros: the stain of suspicion…
Titus: STFU, Marneus Calgar just praised me 😎😎😎

Erebus is the worst CHAPLAIN
Leandros : hold my......... sh*t, Gorrilaman confiscated my holy book
Titus has done things Leandros could only dream of. His own personal failures he keeps trying to project onto Titus LOL.
Corpse pale Leandros, may you get what the Inquisitor got. No mercy, no respite when that time comes.
Leandros is the real heretic
I yelled out loud "why" when i saw him.
I suspect Leandros was pursuaded to don the black of the Chaplain when Calgar found out who reported Titus...fitting. Chaplains cannot command or move beyond their station, along with eternally being distant from their fellow Battle-Brothers. He was overly suspicious and skirted the Codex, now he will remain eternally suspicious in administering it.
… damn… I was hoping Leandros was turned into some slanneshi sports cup
If it makes anyone feel better, I've heard theories that Leandros became a Chaplain more as a punishment than a promotion.
The theory goes that after Leandros handed Titus over to the Inquisition-something that, despite him referencing the Codex Astartes, he was absolutely *not* supposed to fucking do-he obviously got in trouble for it. They couldn't get rid of him since he was still of use, but any trust he had with the rest of his brothers, any chance he had for promotion, like perhaps getting Titus' rank in the future, effectively went up in smoke.
As for his punishment, he was trained as a Chaplain, which is the person who he actually should have gone to if he had any suspicions about Titus, instead of to the Inquisition.
While there, absolutely no one would like him. He'd be treated the worst out of all the candidates, and if he didn't know the rules before, he'd sure as hell know them by the end it.
He'd eventually make it out as a Chaplain, but at a heavy cost, and would have to build up his reputation from the ground up. Or maybe he didn’t. I’m not sure. I definitly know if what the game has to show about trust between the Ultramarines, there would be few willing to watch his back in a fight.
Leandros honestly has the perfect chaplain mindset. Trust no one. Suspect everyone.
It's now his job.
WE FINALLY GET SEE A THOUSAND SONS IN CINEMATIC BEAUTY!
Man, Warhammer 40k pumps my testosterone levels every time I watch anything about it.
Leondros guaranteed traitor.
I haven't played this game yet, and I've not played the original in many years. Yet I still felt a visceral hate when that helmet came off and I realised who it was.
Fuck that guy.
Calgar's fists are too small. 0/10 would not serve under.
That's his new Primaris look. His older look had the LARGE FISTS
what bothered me was the fact that he never punched anything during the entirety of this game
HE WILL PERFORM THE IMPERIAL FISTING UPON YOU!
They're the same size.
It's just that the rest of his body is bigger 😂
@Guo1234bob also his cape was clipping through the back pack.
"You think that it was Leandros? BUT IT WAS I, DIO!"
Leondros will end up falling to chaos. What a bastard
Honestly, I had a feeling that the chaplain was Leandros all along. It was a good twist, and I'm looking forward to seeing how things will play out from here.
I never have thought Leandros would become a Chaplain of all things. I thought that maybe he may have died somewhere, learning too late that Titus' actions have been right. I think he became a Chaplain due to his penchant for others to be loyal and pure of purpose The question remains whether he's been chastised by Calgar or Guilliman himself before. Perhaps here, he'd actually see the proper actions of Titus.
Now seeing this, it is poetic: Leandros had outed Titus before, how he's the one, despite from the orders of Calgar and maybe assurance from Tigurius, to reinstate Titus back into the Ultramarines and has seen the merit of his actions.
Papa Smurf = Pretty chill
Yeah, how many Daemonic incursions have you stopped in your career, Leandros?
I knew it, the moment I saw the Chaplain I freaking knew...
Only Leandros, and his codex humping ways would become a Chaplain.
He will be so happy when it's finally revealed that Titus has been Khorne's chosen from the start.
damn. a lot can change in like 200 years, little Leandros is all grown up
Titus: I’ve done it before, I’ll do it a-fucking-gain
This is how you know there's a sequel coming because Leandros hasn't arrested him again.
Leandros took the Diomedes route
Except Diomedes learned his lesson.
@@Loispealz34 it also basically a demotion from honor guard captain to a chaplain.
@@jalpat2272 Yup. Diomedes saw that he fucked up, and took measures to atone, but still guide his brothers with his natural Ham. Leandros fucked up, and somehow got promoted.
@@Loispealz34 maybe calgar though reclusiarchy is good place to kick him up without disturbing the rest of companies structural cohesion.😄
He took the punishment and was probably forced to read and learn the codex Astartes.
EPIC FOR THE EMPEROR!!
You can truly tell that Calgar's acknowledgement of Titus' devotion and incorruptible nature meant a lot to him. He truly is an Ultramarine and would die a thousand deaths to prove his allegiance. It naturally also offends him to hear Leandros' unshakeable suspicion. Though it is still understandable from Leandros, and probably even respectable to some degree, that he retains his suspicion given Titus' resistance to Chaos without being a Blank. However he could still be a latent psycher, with a mind of steel in the same way that Grey Knights have. They can also resist the touch of Chaos, but they are not necessarily more special than any regular Space Marine biologically.. or at least any Librarian.
In my mind Titus is simply an would-be Grey Knight or Librarian that just never awoke his powers.. and is strong enough to resist the temptations even without the specific training. If he had gotten the tailored training he'd be legendary amongst either groups.
the chaplaincy has its own command structure separate of the chaptermaster, it wouldnt surprise me if leandros joined it to escape the harshest of the potential punishments
Leandros
Leandros should not have gotten any promotion like that, at best he should have been just another first borne among the primaris or have died in between games cause his ridged codex worship got him killed
All the homies hate leandros
At the start of the game Leandro’s sounds proud of Titus passing his judgement so there should be a great bond here
Leandros is the perfect chaplain, they are supposed to be fanatical and suspicious to the point of being assholes, I think he got the position that was the most beneficial to the chapter after everything that happened.
Oh would you look at that. A traitor became Chaplain.
He wasn't a traitor. He was a massive dogmatic dick.
Not a traitor. Just an asshole.
So I hope they will continue to make Space Marine a series like it was originally planned. With each game having a different enemy of the Imperium.
The only ones left are the Tau, Eldar, and Necrons. I think the Necrons would have to be saved for last though.
And of course putting Chaos in each game.
Imagine Slaaneshi daemons being the next threat, with Lucius the Eternal as the main antagonist.
Well, there were some Necron-stuff in the game, from what I have seen
@@Ssosmooth69 how could Lucius be the next antagonist? He is the guy who possesses people that kill him.
@@richardtouchstone5508 maybe there can be a story work-around where one of your teammates kills him, causing him to come back with your teammate’s moves as well. He can kind of act as a pursuer-type boss fight. And since Titus has weird warp-resistance, he can resist Lucius’ possession, which can make for a pretty cool mental battle. I’m just spitballing, though.
@@Ssosmooth69 yeah, the possession thing really limits options. It sucks since Lucius from what I heard has been annoying since Horus Heresy. I never read any of the Lore but the Lore videos I have seem and read while looking him up. He is a supposed to be an exceptional duelist but his main thing is “Oh I can’t really die since Slaanesh lets be possess the one that kills me”.
Which the possession has gotten ridiculous since he possessed a factory worker who created the mine that he stepped on which killed him, all because the factory worker felt pride in his work.
Holy smokes, first Black Space Marine I have ever seen. That's really cool!
The ENTIRE Salamanders chapter: Am I a joke to you?
Salamanders aren't African and neither are ultra marines black and Asian.
@@marinesinspace6253 TBF Salamanders are coal black with red eyes.
Leandros. Friendly fire job.
No one is truly free of suspicion of heresy in the Imperium of Man. Except the Emperor himself.
