The Alpha Legion's recruitment process has only one requirement, the aspirant must convince the rest of Alpha Legion that they're already a member, the exact process is up to the aspirant and no one is ever told about this process, you just have to know about it This is also why Alpha Legion has two primarchs, they originally only had one until the day one exceptionally convincing aspirant managed to gaslight the entire Imperium (including the Emperor) into believing he was the primarch's twin brother

'The Brightest and the Best' short story covers a type of Alpha Legion's recruitment process. They send representatives to a Schola Progenium, pretending to be a loyalist chapter. They select the brightest and the best students and recruit them via deception or by force if necessary. The recruits come with good understansing of the current state of the Imperium and with some pre-established connections through the Schola. This is actually similar to one of the ways for real-life intelligence services to recruit people from abroad through international Master's degrees and MBA's.

The alpha legion recruitment was all about teamwork they put there aspirant together in squads and told to complete whatever mission they were assigned, but will only make them astares if the team could work together and not individually because alpha legion is all about working achieving the goals of the legion not seeking glory

For some renegades to traitor warbands in the M41 . Some of them due to the planets they control they use the population to recruit from. As per the case for the Iron Warriors during the Beast arises crises before the orks took over a planet that the legion ruled over. As for a current now traitor's Red Corsair's they recruit from the planet's they govern now or through other renegades or traiter legion warband signing up with them and swearing loyality to them. As in the Night Lord trilogy set there were a few Night Lords who were in the Red Corsair force. As they saw more opportunity for selfish gains with them then in a Night Lord warband or in the Black Legion.

I think there's a short story where an Iron Warrior warlord meets emissaries from the three old legions, the Thousand Sons, Emperor Children, and the Night Lords. The warlord ended up disappointed since those three aren't veterans of the long war but instead they were recently inducted. The majoroty of the story was about how each envoy being recruited into the warband and how from an aspirant into an astartes.

I I say the iron hands should have a unique servitor unit. I mean if they fail at the end of their trial they'd still have a lot of space marine augmentations in them making them still super human before they get lobotomized, also servitors are a major part of 40K lore and are said to have limitless customization options and can be pretty powerful at times. I just think it's weird that such a defining part of the setting has only one model (I've got similar feelings about necrom flayed ones.) Also, this is an opinion coming from a guy who hates space marines and thinks they get too much company favoritism. I'm tired of hyper specific space marine units especially ones that only work for one chapter, and I'm asking to give one to the iron hands because they don't have anything.

Thing about Dorn is that the harshness of Inwit, and Necromunda gangsters is _who_ he is by temprament. Dorn's greater achievement for his character is that he's a stoic in the truest sense; that he _overcame_ his nature to give us the cold stubborn Dorn we know. Every scold he has ever levied has been to admonish those for succumbing to their nature/design. It's why he hates Sigismund, because he is what an Imperial Fist is at a basal level, and what Dorn is trying to overcome in himself.

I have a question... One that's only slightly on topic because the loy/etic Alpha Legion was mentioned in the video... Tzeench chose Magnus and the Thousand Sons because of things like their psyker abilities. Which makes sense with how sorcery is part of his portfolio. But wouldn't the Alpha Legion be just as good, or an even better choice, due to his obsession with unnecessarily complicated plotting? Because the concept of the unknowable and the nonsensical seems to fit both the Chaos god and the XXth perfectly.

I now know why the ultramarines are the best poster boys for the imperium, and the salamanders need more spot light

Another thing about the Night Lords: Konrad Curze originally wanted the brightest children of the Nostraman nobility to be the recruits, but those nobles, along some Astartes in the legion like Skraivok, schemed to send their people’s worst instead. From that, all of Nostramo’s prisons were emptied, thus creating the legion of murderers we know and love

The Alpha Legion recruitment process is actually dope as fuck: They kidnapp potential loyalist aspirants before they are taken and hypnotise them. Then when they broadcast the trigger word half the victim loyalist chapter shoots the other half and the Alpha Legion has 500 new marines.

This is true. Like in one book a Space Marine can tank 30 pulse rifle shots. And then in another or even the same book, one pulse rifle shot takes the space marine out.

Seems like too often they’re manipulated for whatever the author needs to get done, which is not good for consistent lore telling. Like as a Tau fan, I don’t care if it takes 10 or 100 Tau soldiers to take down a space marine. Whichever it is, just stick with it.

And with the space wolves you have to first prove yourself in battle basically lead a shield wall at like 12 against raiders twice your age to then have your soul offered up to the warp for temptation and if it looks like you might give in rune priest sever your soul and turn your body into a servator and if you pass they load onto a dropship fly you out to the middle of a frozen forest and make you drink the canis helix the gene seed the turns you into a wulfen and toss you out while your trying to fight off the transformation and tell you to make your way back to the fortress by yourself and leave you to either freeze to death because they drop you with nothing, get eaten by astartes size predators, transform into a wulfen, or somehow make your back through all of that before they say you pass.

Hey Majorkill. Would you please make some lore videos on the Imperial Truth, the Imperial Creed, The Ecclesiarchy, and the High Lords of Terra? Thank you.

Majorkill is the only Warhammer KZreadr whose nuts haryness level is known for sure.

Keep up the good work,I love your content. Much respect.

R.I.P timmy will be remembered

You have just been reminded of the daemonculaba. You're welcome.

4:25 i was eating, thanks for the warning but hearing about it just made my apetite better

If I’m right, the chapter having the toughest recruitment process is the grey knights

MajorKill does not dare speak of recruitment in my favorite faction. THE GREY KNIGHTS !!! The most badass faction in the Imperium. Watch Luetin09's two-part documentary about the recruitment of Knights. It's awesome.

This was a nice video, good one

A note on the Night Lords: it was the governors of the planet who started sending in prisoners and persona non gratia as aspirants; when Konrad first started recruiting from his home the recruits were harsh, yes, but were still under the Nighthaunter influence of discipline. Kurze grew to hate his legion as they began to be replaced terrible individuals.

The Ultramarines seem to be the most wholesome out of all of them and white scars

I literally just got out of bed. This is a GREAT way to start my day. Fuuuuuuuck yeeeeaaaah.

I guess most of the time chaos legions like world eaters, death guard and Emperor's Children would seek Fabius Bile to built a small army before a raid or attack in the material world

I was eating during the description of the Daemonculaba, and Im not phased bc I remmeber reading about that in HS when I read the Ultramarines Omnibus

Love how MK does the Chris Evans pec-hold after every sponsor he introduces hahaha nice one m8

That blood angels image was ultra epic, same goes for the DA power fist + power sword death wing 👌🏽

Every legion: Last man standing!!! Das Salamanders: Good work today! Tomorrow, we'll forge cutlery!

Couple of questions. How can a Space Wolf aspirant turn Wolfen if theyvare an aspirant and not fi ished with genetic manipulation yet? Surely they can't turn as early as the trials! Also, I don't think it's literally Sanguinius' blood that Blood Angel aspirants are placed in.

@💉Pfizer Soze💉 point taken. I took it as implied given how he says it. But don't reply in all bold as though I'm stupid. It's a dick move and all thats wrong with people in 40k. Either way it can't be right. 10,000 years of feeding thousands upon thousands of aspirants his blood? How much would they need? That's was where I was going with it.

@💉Pfizer Soze💉 Yeah and you just sound like a dickhead! I'm happy to take a point it was taken as implied. Filled with blood, fed someone's blood. Implies the blood they are lay in is how they are fed it. With 3 replies to make you point mate, I don't think "stay humble" is in your vocabulary to act out.

If you watch the intro cinematic for BFG II, the cultist guy you play as who becomes a Chaos Astartes, it looks like he becomes a Word Bearer (armor color scheme and not being a distinct Chaos God aligned Astartes) through some sort of rituals. Also interestingly is that it looks like he is already an adult when he is chosen but that could just be warp spaghetti.

Remember, The salamanders might look wholesome until they burn a entire group of eldar children alive while humming a cheery toon

Sick artwork for every legion

I'm pretty sure in a white scars book it talks about a recruit being placed 17th on the list of top performance. The top 16 were sent directly to the Luna Wolves, and the bottom however many being divided up. I'm fairly sure this was super early in the process on Terra, and the now Terran white scar was met with a huge culture clash joining the Khans culture.

In the Baal book, Girly-Man squashes the idea that any kind of hardship makes better SMs - he straight up tells Dante to raise the quality of life in the Baal system as the suffering makes no difference to the final marine. Cauls initial batch of primaries likewise haven't all gone through crazy life and selection process. If you have they right genes compatible with the process, job done.

Ngl if I were to become a space marine I either become a salamander or ultramarine, those seem the most tame compared to all others.

13:38 the Ultramarines were the largest legion during the great crusade with about 250,000 Astartes (due to absorbing at least partially the II an XI Legion) followed by the Word Bearers with about 160,000 Astartes. That is also one of the reasons, why Lorgars boys were sent to Calth, as no one else would have had the numbers…

Yo, the nightlords do have a trial…. There is a short story about a 40k Nightlords trial, where they travel to a planet during a specifc night of the year where there is a festival for all the young undesirables and murderous aspirants that are forced outside all night and to gather around a large Chaos effigy at the upper open-air levels of the hive. Then when the festival starts they all fight to the death in a big murderous free-for-all, while Nightlord Raptors rain down from the sky and rocket through the streets picking off weakling aspirants, and antagonizing the rest throughout the night, as they watch and supervise the chaos down below. Where at the end of the festival, they pick their best aspirants based off their kills… The story is incredible, as a [Big SPOILER ALERT] lone aspirant, leading a gang of kids that all get picked off one by one before he finally manages to lead a Nightlord to his death and cuts his face off as proof of kill…

Hey Majorkill could you do a video of which prime Arc you could be in a fight

7:57 funny how subtitles say "Ferrus Madness" considering what trial he came up with

"If you are currently eating" Me, takin a bite outta my sandwich: oh shit he knows

Thousand sons fan here 🤓 heh actually major kill that’s a common misconception. Thousand son geneseed is totally fine thanks to the rubric. Thing is it will only work in potent psyker kids. The souls for ‘rubrics’ can come from basically any dead low lvl thousand son guy across time. The trials are just wizard school.

Weird. I was thinking of this the other day. Woke up and saw this lol.

Ello majorkill, when you gonna make a video on the harlequins diffrent masks? Also love the video as always

Roane Deepers!!!! Ya Roane Drongo!!!!!

GREY KNIGHTS HANDS DOWN, THEN I'D SAY BLOOD ANGELS THEN NIGHT LORDS

Finally a KZreadr who isn't afraid to talk about the daemonculaba! Thank you for addressing the most fucked up part of the setting!

Part two on Erda. Never stopping

Bruh I just finished making myself breakfast when he starts talking about the daemonculaba.

I think I remember that the DeathGuard do not recruit mortals at all. Nurgle chooses their recruits amongst CHaos Astartes and turns those into Plague Marines. These Plague Marines then eventually turn up at the Death Guards doorstep. I remember a passage in the 7th edition CSM codex, or a novel, I cant remember, that Abaddon gifted the Deathguard 250 Astartes to secure their loyalty.

The XI Legion: Hide and seek champions for 10k years and counting.

Can you do the same for guardsmen regiments on how they get their recruits?

From PDF forces and service in those is mandatory. Those who excell or like the job go on to the Guard.

If the novel Lords of Silence is anything to go off of, the Death Guard accept any Astartes that accepts Nurgle’s gift. There are two major character that are not originally from the legion, both holding high ranks in the War band. The main one doesn’t even remember what chapter or planet he was from or why he turned traitor. However those not from the original legion do get looked down on and have to work harder to prove themselves
