ALL 18 Horus Heresy Legions EXPLAINED!

[@whitejayz4655]

The reason for orks not being a faction in 30k is because the imperium had almost wiped them out completely during the great crusades, thats how powerful the imperium was, that they almost had made the orks extinct, but where the heresy fucked up the imperium so much it basically gave the orks 10,000 years to regather their strength, so if Horus never got tempted and corrupted by some Erebussy, its a safe bet to say Orks wouldn't be a thing anymore.

change from Luna Wolves to SoH wasn´t at the start of the heresy, it was shortly before that, after the Ullanor campaign, where was Horus titled the Warmaster. There was still a brief window of them being SoH and still absolutely loyal. Also... 100% of the legion was behind Horus? Loken, Tarik and multiple squads if not companies would beg to differ, they were hand picked for the first wave on Istvaan III to die during the bombardment or in the aftermath cleanup.

He’s actually called “Lion”, with the last name “El’jonson”. Supposedly in the language of Caliban (his adopted home planet), it means “Lion, Son Of The Forest”. Games Workshop originally named him after a British poet named Lionel Johnson, who wrote the poem “Dark Angel”- which is a pretty cool idea. (In the earliest mention of Lion, GW actually spelled his name “Lyyn Elgonsen”.)

[@Jimothyjohns]

For the Dark Angels, it’s a little inaccurate. They didn’t purposefully betray the Lion. They were tricked by a bitter and corrupted Luthor* into attacking the Lion because they thought the Lion was a traitor. Leman also didn’t convince Emps to kill Magnus, Horus intercepted and changed part of the order and ordered the execution of Magnus, not the return of Magnus. Curze not only hated his legion when he arrived with them, his new recruits came from the lawless Nostramo and made him despise the legion even more. He claimed he couldn’t purge any loyalist marines because he didn’t know if there were any. While the Iron Hands did hate the flesh, and mimicked Ferrus’s iron hands, Ferrus tried to change this up until his death. Also, the Iron Hands were so shattered by the Massacre literally couldn’t reforge their legions. Only a few hundred were left. They did reforge, but made themselves weaker through it. Almost…** For Death Guard, they weren’t super special for having 1/3 of the legion being loyal to Emps. All of the traitor legions at Istvaan 3 had around 1/3 of their legions purged. I’m pretty sure it was always clear that the T-Sons were psykers, and that their mutations happened right after they left to Crusade… idk though. Not entirely sure. However, Magnus had to sell part of his soul to Tzeentch for the cure, which was the start of his fall. And his message to Emps was turned away by the psykic barriers that protected the Golden Throne, and Tzeentch tricked Magnus into breaking it by going through the Webway. That’s why the wolves were set upon Prospero Sons of Horus weren’t exactly cut the head off the snake. While they did do this, they were shock troops meant to crush the enemy in one battle, and one swift strike. Corvus was the primarch who cut the head off the snake in a quick stroke. They were also quite diplomatic, not just warlike. The Luna Wolves became the Sons of Horus after Emps suggested Horus change the name in honour of Horus being Warmaster. Horus didn’t betray the loyalist at Istvaan 5. He purged his legion at Istvaan 3, and then fought the loyalists at Istvaan 5. It was WB, IW, NL, AL who betrayed the RG, IH, and Salamanders at drop site. Salamanders were reckless, especially when Vulkan joined them because the Promethean Cult preaches self-sacrifice. Salamanders would join the battle wherever citizens were in the most danger, and that would oftentimes lead to their deaths. Raven Guard got to name the Mark 6 after their Primarch; the mark 6 Corvus pattern. Luna Wolves used the Ravens as an extension of his legion. Corvus, was somewhat against this, but it came to a head at the battle of Gate 42 where Horus used his legion in the wrong way, contrary to Corvus’s advice, caused Corvus to never fight with Horus again. *who was regretful in 41k but was freed by Chaos and who knows what they’ll do with him. **they started to hide their emotions, which caused them to be manipulated by Slaanesh (or Tzeentch, don’t remember exactly) through the use of technology. Eventually they realised they needed to accept emotions and won the day.

[@jezzamatic]

It was the opposite, the world eaters hated Angron and had the most loyalist marines in their legion. They were purged at Istvan, So many World Eaters died trying to make the nails work. Khan was the only real one who stood by Angron and could weather his churlish outbursts. He went on a quest to find a cure for the nails...... He was a real nice person.

They didn't re-organise as The Sons of Horus at the turn of Heresy - they were renamed whilst Horus was still very much loyal to the Emperor. Horus was reluctant to change their name, because he felt it was self-serving and too prideful to rename his legion "The Sons of Horus", after him. I mean... he renamed them in the first book, before any seeds of heresy had even been sewn, and he did so because others had - basically - insisted that he did, and he pretty much only did it to stop them harassing him to do so.

It makes having magic users kind of disappointing because you know they will always be overpowered by non-magic characters.
