While the Khan and the Raven love freedom, they don't use that freedom to kill people for absolutely no reason. Their power on the individual level rival and even above the wolf. But they can never think how to use them in any meaningful purpose. Even the chaos God can't really use them. It's the mistake that the Emperor didn't just kill Konrad and Angron and tell the legion he couldn't find them or was too late.

@@TeutonicKnight92 Right. If emp just let Konrad handle his own system and nothing more, the mess wouldn't be that big. Instead, he let Konrad loose, doing all the holocaust stuff and probably even encourage him to do so. Konrad and Angron are emp biggest mistakes. The emp considered them tools but knowing how fucked up their heads were he should had either lock them up or get rid of them. You don't shoot a gun after knowing you have left it neglected to the point of being rusty, it will blow up in your face. Instead he insisted on letting them loose across the galaxy. In the end, most world conquered by those two end up falling to chaos anyway. But that's not something to be surprised about. Perty and Morty were less messed up and emp still managed to turn those 2 insane. The way I see it, emp would fail raising a dog much less raising a child. Even if they were not scattered, should these guys grow with emp and realized that they were used by him, they would grow doubt and some of them would still fall to chaos.

I like how everyone blames Konrad even though his Legion being what it is is objectively not his fault. His garbage planet gave him the lowest scum. He even purged them for that when he found out. Sth I bet most of the Primarchs would have done. Konrad, and by extension the Emperor are only to blame for their inability to fix them, not for them being monsters in the first place.

There is a great moment in "Blood Reaver" when an ex-nightlord turned Black Legion marine makes the situation clear. If a Chaosmarine wants more then petty raiding and slow extinction, joining Abaddon is the clear way. Become part of a force more unified and with a greater focus then any other.

The Nightlords pretty much are their own enemy when it comes down to it. They were never unified, restructured or even accepted by their Primarch when it comes down to it. Without that unity and control they're honestly in a position where because of their actions they're irredeemable but because they haven't sworn fealty to a Chaos God they're not corrupted like the other Legions sworn to Chaos. Hell even the Iron Warriors are far gone, I mean we all know about the Daemonculaba. With the right leadership they could be reformed into something better then what they are now but it's tall order let's be real They were treated as a necessary form of warfare during the Great Crusade that because of the influence of Nostromo just devolved into a mob of deranged monsters. Seeing them like this now just shows how lost and broken they are without some kind of guiding influence to make them more then just small groups of warring gangs. The Nightlords were doomed from the start I feel like and worst part? The Emperor knew that I bet I bet he knew that once things were complete for the Imperium, he would do to the The Nightlords what he did to the Thunder Warriors For some Legions that probably would have been for the best fate compared to where they are now

O 100% the emperor was going to purge some legions but not all of them, Primarchs who at least tried to teach their Legions other ways to live would be fine.

Interesting to think about the intended purpose of the Legion, and how it all starts to show that the emperor didn’t intend for the Astartes to be a long term establishment, which has always made me sympathetic to Traitor Marines fighting for revenge against the Emperor’s treachery. I think there’s something to be said about the loyalist Primarchs realizing this as well but refusing to let the fallen legions take their revenge on the innocent imperial citizens.

This is by far my favorite trilogy. Really impressed that by the end of the series even an insane berserker like Uzas turned out to have an interesting fate.

I absolutely love it in the audiobooks when Talos calls out "Prey sight" to change his armors visual feed.

what the night lords need to do is following: decide to either start worship chaos, or refuse it and start fighting it. they need to find a goal for themselfs. without it, they will stay lost in darkness forever.

The Night Lords stubbornly holding on to tradition honestly makes sense, to me at least, even if it's detrimental. They lack unity of purpose and were never true believers in chaos so what else have they to hold on to? It's human nature. I think the concept of the legion and their Primarch works brilliantly in the setting and I enjoy their story though I can't say I've ever liked or related to them, on a personal level, but I do find this aspect of their character sympathetic.

The Nightlords occupy a completely unique space in the original legions. They never sought out the approval of their primarch, they laughed and made an absolute mockery of what it meant to be an Astartes, making other legions dislike them on top of their questionable at best-of-times use of excessive violence, The worst loyalists, and arguably the worst traitors. Had only they seeked Konrad's approval the way the War Hounds sought Angron's.

the Night Lords started to fall apart when they found there Primarch. All legions surcome to the traditions of the world there fathers were found on, and it would take no genius to see how negative that would be coming from the hell hole of Nostramo, the poision of the Sunless World infected them from the first aspirants from there. Also i think the traditions of murder duels would be less of an issue in the Legion days, its not really different form the fight pits of the 12th Legion. Fratricide would be answered in the same way in any Legion

@greypilgrim228

Exactly, the world and the Primarch have a direct effect upon the Legion. Take the Space Wolves and the World Eaters, both the XII and the VI were rabid and bloody ill disciplined, needing hardy officers akin to prison guards more than leaders, letting them off the leash on the battlefield and whipping them into line afterwards. Russ caged the wolf in tradition and discipline, in storied song and heroic deeds, Angron cared nothing for the XII and merely mutilated them with the butchers nails just as he had been, turning their aggression and hatred for authority up to 11.

The red corsairs are a HUGE warband also.

You should do a bonus video on septimus and octavia.

Unofficial ABD week also sounds good

Talos "we cannot afford more of our legion to die, we have already lost too many Night Lords, therfore Uzas must live for now" Also Talos *"Then you shall have your blood price"* I know the book itself talks about how Talos was never a good leader but that was just poor decision making.

@greypilgrim228

3 жыл бұрын

It's more of a power play than anything, doesn't mean Talos doesn't still believe in not loosing any more Night Lords. Think of it like this: 1)Talos hates seeing more Night Lords killed, and has loyalty to his squad, his Company, and his legion, in that order. 2) Third claw are demanding to take one of first claw from Talos, granted he's loosing it to Khorne, but he's still one of first claw. If Talos lets them take him, then that puts third claw above first claw in the pecking order, which means they'll demand something from them again and again since he'll back down. It's a sign of disrespect against Talos and his squad. How long before they demand another brother be sacrificed, and another? 3) Taking out third claw in one go for a mark of disrespect and attempted attack, sends a clear message to all the other claws in the company that Talos is not to be fucked with, and potentially gives Talos more leverage to manipulate situations in the future to further unify the Legion once more, avoiding blood shed.
