The Badab War is the name given to one of the most serious rebellions in recent Imperial history. While the conflict is named for a planet (or system of the same name), the war actually took place throughout the several sectors of Imperial space known as the Maelstrom Zone. The war saw four entire Space Marine Chapters secede and rebel against the Imperium.
The Badab War is notable for several reasons; the leader of the rebellious forces, Lufgt Huron, would survive the end of the war and return to trouble Imperial space once more as the Chaos-alligned warlord known as Huron Blackheart, while the conflict itself involved a significant number of warring Space Marine Chapters as the primary participants.

[@Dirtydoghobbies]

Just a bit of trivia, The Badab War and Huron Blackheart have been part of 40k lore longer than Chaos has.

[@DirtHermit]

By a few months. WD 101, and the RoC Slaves to Darkness both came out in 1988, 1 year after 40k Rogue Trader.

The sad part is up that point the Lamenters had actively avoided killing any Imperium forces, since they were still solidly believing this was just a tax dispute.

@@Dracobyte Huron managed to accomplish in a few decades what Abaddon could not in ten millennia, he built a powerful Chaos Empire, and earned the respect of all Chaos Space Marines, Abaddon included, despite not even being a veteran of the Heresy. He lead numerous successful attacks on the Imperium, dealing big damage, in a fraction of the time it requires Abaddon to prepare a single Black Crusade. He's much better tactician, and a better ruler since he has the experience from being the Tyrant Of Badab. He's just much more competent, making him a better fit for Warmaster.

Its unknown whose geneseed the Astral Claws have, but given how Huron acted, Ultramarine seems pretty likely to me.

[@Araknos]

"The only reward for loyality is betrayal" sound like spin on Lion"loyality is It own reward" quote do Astral Claws could had himerick Ultramarines/Dark Angeles just like Space Shark can be Nightlords and Ravenguards mix. At list that's theory I heard and belive in.

[@consolescrub4031]

Just looking at the Lex to see if they're cursed founding and it seems like they were 10th founding (11 before Lamenters, Fire Hawks etc...) and speculated to be Ultramarine or Dark Angel successors (they have really stable geneseed which is part of why there's a ton on them at the onset of the war). Considering their later colour scheme I think Blood Angels would have been an interesting progenitor but it seems unlikely. If they were already practicing hybridisation with traitor geneseed by the 10th founding I would think there might be some Iron Warriors thrown in there considering a certain primarch had an Iron Circle while Huron has an iron ring.

[@RatchildUK]

I'm actually in the small camp of White Scars successor believers tbh. 1. They have special bike rules. 2. Huron and the Red Corsairs have been harrying the White Scars on Chogoris. 3. White Scars were originally called Star Hunters before Jagatai took control. Astral (star) Claw (hunter)

[@Ragnarra]

@@RatchildUK well shit. That can't be good.

[@chronovac]

It's also important to note that "tithes" in this case also include gene-seed, so all of those tithes not being paid, directly correlate to more marines being produced by the Astral Claws. By the time first shots had been fired the Astral Claws were significantly larger than a normal chapter. Also, little side story about the lead-up to the Badab war is that while all of this was brewing, an Astral Claws successor chapter known as the Tiger Claws that was considered a dead chapter had reemerged as a strike cruiser of them had reappeared after being stuck in the warp for around 1000 years (though to them it was much shorter). Seeing as they were the last of their chapter, the Tiger Claws sent an envoy to Terra to ask for the release of their chapter's gene-seed to repopulate the legion. This envoy, the most senior officer still alive amongst the Tiger Claws, subsequently disappeared after delivering the request and the case was thus dismissed by Terra. Fearing that this was a not-so-subtle way of trying to make the chapter's death stick, the Astral Claws would hide the remaining Tiger Claws amongst their ranks, giving them new names. Shortly thereafter, Huron would stop paying tithes.

[@jordinagel1184]

Weren’t there still Tiger Claws around after that tho? I could swear that there were some present alongside the Iron Warriors when Honsou invaded Ultramar

[@michaeldimare3786]

@@jordinagel1184 Correct, but I think those marines had been captured earlier on or were serving in Deathwatch at the time

[@Ultra_Sauce]

Bit of an ackshually here: the encounter with the space hulk and the following berating of the lamenters happened BEFORE the Charnal Guard were removed with the chapter master telling the inquisitor to sod off. This entire conflict can all be traced back to an inquisitor being petty and calling upon some favors that end up having the Astral Claws’ plans rejected in the middle of them explaining them multiple times

[@parapotato]

One of my favorite stories from 40k is the Lamenters near-solo fight against the Unhallowed Heart. So many times I read stories about Space Marines where they are riding in an APC to attack a fort or charging across trenches and it just feels like a waste of super humans/something the guard could handle. But riding boarding torpedos onto a daemon infested hulk the size of a moon that has a kilometers wide radius of psykic paranoia that makes mortal men kill themselves with the intention of overloading plasma reactors to try and destabilized the mass is... not something the Guard could handle. It's demigod over the top warfare at its finest.

Man Huron just wanted the resources to fully CLEAR OUT the Malestrom, (something he has already proven to be possible with the Astral Claws and Malestrom Wardens effectively pushing into the Malestrom) so that the Malestrom would be safe from constant threat and the Imperium wouldn’t have to station 4/3 whole chapters there full time any more. Effectively increasing Imperium productivity and resources while freeing up more astarties to fight the good fight somewhere more important.

“I don’t care who The Imperium sends, I am not paying taxes!” Luffy Huron

[@vineveer4358]

It felt a little understated in the video, but Huron had TWO jobs. The first was to extract resources from the region for imperial taxes, but the other was to safeguard the imperium from pirates, xenos, and chaos in the maelstrom. The badab system was like a small cadia. By refusing to send taxes, and instead using those resources to defend the system, Huron was performing his primary objective as a space marine, "Protect the Empire." It'd be insane to send a fleet in with a scorched earth policy to shut down this "rebellion", wouldn't it? After all, all you'd do by fighting Huron at this point is ruining all the resources you were fighting for in the first place, as well as opening up another costly front in the imperium's many wars. It'd be a lose lose situation. Just. Like. Vraks.

Shocked DK didn't try to call it the "Bad Dab" War like he did in the Lamenters episode

If I am not mistaken Arbitor Ian make a video about the Badab War and it is pretty amazing!

[@ecyor0]

Seconding the Arbitor Ian video for folks who want the full context of how the war developed/want to fill in the gaps after they finish the Adeptus Ridiculous treatment. He'll do ya right.

[@Dracobyte]

Yes it is!

[@thewerdna]

Tax evasion is a crime, Huron! Its an obligation!

[@bbailey1027]

DK Tzeentchian Cultist confirmed! And a powerful psyker! (but we already knew that ;) )

His obsession with Lotara's abs bend him a little toward Slaanesh though

[@rowanerickson129]

The Badab War is my favorite. Part of what inspired my homebrew chapter

[@danieljacob9717]

If I remember correctly the Unhallowed Heart had no daemons accompanying it. The only thing it had was some form of psychic presence strong enough to drive people insane, suicidal, or cause them to have a brain hemorrhage.

I love this place. Shy shows a picture of Quelaag, DK swoons and loves it, Bricky hates it.

[@AppalachianWarhammer]

Bricks mentions the Q by accident, funnily enough that's probably one of the few races outside Warhammer 40k, that would fuck 40K up immensely. Q: *arrives on a Ordo Mallus flagship* Well hello Mon Capitaine, my you look as droll as Picard Inquisitor: DESTROY THAT XENOS FILITH!!! Q: *Turns lazguns into party popper, replaces the Grey Knights armor with Hawaiian shirts and khaki shorts, and materializes anti warp mittens onto all the psykers. Q: Now now, no party pooping

[@ashrog82]

Totally misunderstood what you were talking about until I saw Picard's name. Thought you were talking about the Qu from All Tomorrows.
