Whilst Omagon was not and wouldn’t believe in the big Es cause.

Legion*, though only a few are under the palace, it is noted that the Custodes always refuses to take the option to wake them up whenever the idea is considered during a Blood Game (same legionnaires which could be awoken with traitor orders or loyalist too) so the Custodes still gets their own Alpha Legion Auxiliary as last resort. The funniest part about the legion is that since unlike every other Chaos Legion they didnt retreat to the Eye of Terror it means they are the Chaos Legion with the least amount of memories from the Horus Heresy, and they went through the same decline as the rest of the Imperium, only forever doomed to fight a Shadow War and use Chaos as further boost for the most part. So none actually remembers wtf were they supposed to do and thus all have their own quirks and identity, despite not having any as they are spies lol

Dark Angels and Alpha Legion have a lot points of contrast, I've found. Besides being the first and the last, respectively, they also have contrasting cultures. The Dark Angels are paranoid as fuck, and the Alpha Legion are the ones who would make you paranoid if you knew their MO. Besides that, the Dark Angels (before the Lion's return, at least) had an ongoing thing about their loyalty being in question, while the Alpha Legion's betrayal may have been a lie this entire time. The two legions are also split between loyalist and traitor, the Dark Angels with their Fallen, Unforgiven, and now Risen subfactions, and the Alpha Legion with their Loyalist/Traitor split between their twin Primarchs' diverging motives.

Things make a bit more sense when you stop looking at the Alphalegion as a whole. Look at them as the same way you would look at the Nightlords, various bands of desperate individual renegades. Some are loyal playing a long con, some fell to chaos and its promises while others just fucked off into the galaxy. Also I believe Alpharius was the 1st Primarch found but since the legion required both of them, you can't count it as a whole. Just 0.5 of a Primarch found so no point in counting them or trying to round up when their whole purpose is supposed to be espionage.

Another iconography trick of the Alpha legion(if we can believe it) is that the higher rank you are in a squad the less ornate your armour is. Drawing attention of would be assassins onto the lowest ranking member of the group. But at the same time Alpha Legionaires are all trained with more independence. So they can act alone when on stealth or infiltration missions. Which also leads to any Alpha legionaire being capable of taking command if their leader is killed. So who knows if that's true. Did you kill the seargent just for the nextguy in line to easily take control? Or did you kill the leastimportant person andleader is still around? Even on a macro level this works. Cause when G-man killed supposedly Omegon. it didn't take long for the entire legion to rally, decimate the ultramarines ina counter attack, and nearly trapped G-man on the wrong side of the battlelines.

The third head is the legion itself

My favorite bit of lore was an Alpha Legion warband psycho-indoctrinating Space Marines of a loyalist chapter to turn on their brothers and later adding them to their warband later.

Thank you so much fpr covering them! They are by far my favorite legion. I had a feeling that they would be the last legion to be covered. Now with the legions over, im guessing the xenos are next?

There was some warband that recovered the bladed components of one of their primarch's wargear, the mysterious pale spear. The original shaft of the weapon was held by the imperial fists.

I think the Alpha Legion might be my favorite. :) Congrats on seeing this through! It's given me a lot of food for thought on the Space Marines, introduced me to the ones I didn't really know much about and has been generally just a fun time. :3 Keep on.

If you see this you should definitely do a video on the farsight version of the tau as a separate faction.

The whole, "or that could be an Alpha Legion ploy" is really just the by-product of bad writing. It leaves the writers a way to retconn something or alter the meaning of something that has occured in the universe. Wanna right Alpharius back into the lore after being killed?....Alpha Legion. Golden Throne starting to fail? Alpha Legion.

It's bad writing to give yourself a logical, in universe way to retcon something? I think it's the opposite of bad writing, personally...

I'm currently enamored with the concept of running a Deathwatch style pack of Space Marine Black Shields, with it being made up of equal parts Alpha, Salamander, and Space Wolves legions.

The best lore tid bit is when Emperor used Big Boss DNA to create Alpharius and that his tube had constant stream od Invisible by Duran Duran (best mgs v song) playing inside it.

There's a line where "intriguingly mysterious" stops being interesting and starts seeming like a bunch of jangling keys to distract from a lack of real depth. Alpha Legion play jump rope with that line.

Not sure if you were already planning on it but now that you're done with the 20 original legions it'd be cool if you went over some of the more prominent successor chapters like the Black Templars, Flesh Tearers, Minotaurs, or the Legion of the Damned.
