1st Legion???

  1. I am loving these videos of the pre alpha footage but i hear something a lot that really makes me wonder, is it a player or the Dark Angels themselves shouting for the 1st Legion? the first legion was split into successor chapters as with all loyalist legions as we all know, actually referring to your chapters as legions is against imperial decree so you really need to see a chaplain immediately. An Example of how serious it is is found in a Dark Angels novel called 'Pandorax'. Supreme Grand Master Azrael refers to the successors as brothers rather than cousins which as minor as it is raises an eye brow from Supreme Grand Master Draigo of The Grey Knights.

    now off to the Halls of repentance you go,
  2. You have to consider that DA are all closet heretics anyway ...

    It's the Dark Angels, do you know how many times they have been accused of Legion building?

  4. well ive been into Dark Angels for a round 20 years so i hope so, legion building? unlikely due to the codexes that show when Dark Angel supreme grand master have had requests granted for the building of successors from the high lords of terra with no question at all, the fallen are a different story as they are renegades. Dark Angels are the closest heretics? more reason not to shout 1st legion, plus with the amount of chapters that have turned to chaos since the siege like the crimson slaughter whom was the crimson sabres for example im sure the high lords of terra think differently which is of course what counts :)

    I mean, in battle I'm sure they aren't focussing too much on what they're shouting. That being said I get what you're saying as there's probably not any dark angels that have survived since the second founding.

    You know you sound like the Dark Angels Editor on 1d4chan right?

    Draigo can screw himself. For the 1st Legion!

    Also yes we have been "groundlessly" accused of legion building in the past.

  9. Considering that the Dark Angels were the First Legion, and it is an honorific for them, they can get away with using it as part of a warcry.

    That and most of the players yelling it probably had more than a passing interest on the Horus Heresy.

    Once first legion is back to good size, BAM cypher returns and button is pressed to go on full hereticus mode ... Luther is freed and the rotten imperium must be burned clean(tm) !

    Double bang ! they suddenly assault cadia deadlock and break it wide open for the black legion to pour in and start the 14th black legion into the heart of man !
