    Dark Angels: We used to have traitors in our midst. We must ensure KNOW ONE KNOWS!!

      legionaireb it’s not that simple for the DA because 1. We lost our Primarch to the traitors
      2. The warp keeps dropping Fallen out in different times and eras making the Fallen a constant threat and source of shame to the DA.

      @@DharkDemonBlade black legion is litteraly a legion formed from traitor mariens from all legions, including loyalists.
      Despite that, no chapter was declared excomunicated for having marines in the black legion.
      However the Dark Angels might be declared heretics if the Inquisition find out about the fallen, not because it represent a problem, but because it gives an excuse to the Inquisition to ban a chapter borderline independant.
      Dark Angels have, since the Horus heresy, not done very much outside of chassing loyalists, they were on Vrax just because they thought one of the Alpha legionnairs present had infos about the fallens, after that rumor prove to be false, they just left.

      Darr Venom Fier LOL!, because those are the chapters which MAY be descended from (admittedly loyalist) remnants of the Traitor Legions, The Son Of The Phoenix ARE admittedly ULTIMA founding Primaris but are allegedly derived from Emperors Children Gene Seed. There was a conspiracy theory that The Fallen we’re actually the true Loyalists and the main Legion were in the process of turning traitor but switched back at the 11th hour. It’s all very messed up, but remember at one stage of the Heresy Loyalist 1000 sons were battling Traitor White Scars yet the White Scars are now portrayed as an example of a “crazy but nice” Chapter now. :)

    If geneseed was derived from the lion in the 41st millennium would it be more pure than the geneseed from the vaults on terra? And could a more pure form of space marine be made from the fresh geneseed compared to the aged and fatigued seed from the ancient vaults on the Rock or Terra?

    • @intellectualiconoclasm3264

      Great question. I've wondered too! What about Corax? With his embrace of his dual nature what would have to his genome? Russ? Would spending millenials in Comoragh do anything to that of The Khan? What of all Vulkan's deaths, would they purify or corrupt his genome?

    • @tyler1tanner
      @tyler1tanner 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      All great questions, especially since we know that at least for some of the more psychically inclined primarchs that things such as their their death or other profound and significant events can have affects on the gene seed. I have wondered myself about the fresh gene seed though. With the return of roboutte guilliman, are the ultra marines capable of creating fresh, pure gene seed from his DNA?

    • @robertnelson9599
      @robertnelson9599 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      First, I am willing to bet that new gene-seed from the Primarchs would be more pure than gene-seed created from millennia of Progenoid Gland harvesting.
      Second, I bet that Corvus and Russ' gene-seed has mutated significantly from spending time in the Warp, unless their Primarch physiology allows them to somehow ignore the Warp's effects on their gene-seed material.
      I believe Jaghatai Khan and Vulkan would have their gene-seed act the same, unless the Dark Eldar experimented on Khan in some way.

    • @tyler1tanner

      @01sanguinius with the addition of cawls primaris organs I highly doubt legionnaires would have been equal to the primaris, but there is also certainly no doubt that the quality of the astartes physiology has declined over the millennium, certainly with certain gene seed defects.
      I've also wondered about the warps effect on gene seed for the primarchs who have been in the warp, and since it's been a few hundred years in cannon if primaris gene seed is going to start experiencing similar mutations and defects as OG astartes.

    They were known as the Emperor's Angels of Death at the outset of the Great Crusade, just as they were leaving Terra.
    T'chulka was what made transit to Macragge possible. When the Iron Hands revealed that they intended to take T'chulka to Guilliman, it is what motivated the Lion to pay his brother a visit.
    The Pharos was not what made it possible to reach Ultramar, it was the T'chulka. This was what made it possible for the 1st Legion to take Macragge by surprise. Guilliman points out that the 1st Legion's direction was to Macragge particularly.
    One might also mention that the revolution begun by Curze in Illyrium on Macragge was the reason for burning out that region.

    Other chapters: oh primaris either A:yay I want them, or B: grr I dont want them but fine.
    Dark Angels: shit we need the numbers but they can't know our secret. They couldn't understand. How do we keep them from learning? What do we do when they do learn? How do we keep up the hunt without them finding out?

    Games workshop got the idea for the dark angels from the book of Enoch, the watchers and the fallen, even the pictures of them are very similar, robes and cowl worn over armoured angels, they nearly destroyed humanity and were cast down, hence the fallen, not sure how far GW will go with the original theory lol

    I don't understand this secrecy with Fallen Angels. I get it is shameful and possibly dangerous situation. But how come it is still a secret so long after it happened? Unforgiven can't be everywhere to kill all witnesses every time. Other chapters or inquisitors would have eventually found some while randomly investigating renegade marines warbands activities. Some hints could have been spied or leaked. Cypher asked Girlyman to see the Emperor, so will Dark Angels silence a primarch now?

      No, that's the Iron Hands. The Dark Angels at least have an interesting story and characters like Azrael and Asmodai. I can't name a single individual Iron Hand or tell you what they've done since Ferrus Died. Although Ferrus is somewhat interesting and now he's leading the Legion of the Dammed, which is really awesome.

  • @aaronslater470
    @aaronslater470 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    My personal hunch: Luther is a loyalist who defended Caliban from the Lion who had sided with Horus. The Warpstorm swallowed up the loyalist marines (the Fallen) and scattered them because they were holding out too long and Horus needed reinforcement. After Big E killed Horus the Lion sided with the winner (back to the Imperium). They hunt their former brothers to cover up their treachery. *oh and the Alpha Legion are secretly Loyalists fighting Choas from within.

    • @Turner7759
      @Turner7759 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Except that's not the case, because it's in the Hours Heresy novels. The lion is the most loyal primarch, malcador, and the emperor both say that they knew for certain The Lion would never betray them, no other primarch got tested like him, 10 years alone on a daemon infested planet.
