I also like the idea that no one seemed to be tipped off that something was up with the 6th when they arrived on Atoma for the quarantine operation. Administratum Scribe: "You guys here for the quarantine?" 6th Guardsmen with his nose literally missing: "You could say something like that."

The 6th are my favorite Chaos related faction ever. The idea of being a regimented, ordered, and disciplined fighting unit that finds itself loyal to Chaos is both ironic and fascinating. I would also like to note that Captain Wolfer is pointed it out as the de facto leader of the 6th currently, however, most guard regiments are usually led by a Colonel. I don't know if a 'Captain' in a Moebian regiment is equivalent to a Colonel if we were to go by the Moebian naming convention for soldiers (Referring to guardsmen as lasmen etc) but it seems to me that Wolfer killed the 6th Command Staff and possibly other loyalist members that wouldn't bend the knee before being sent to Atoma. This could easily be explained away by saying that commander of the 6th was killed in action or something.

[@Angryjenkinsdigital]

Look into the Blood Pact and Sons of Sek. They formed nigh independently, and th latter took the strengths of the guard and used them against the Guard

[@valeon7303]

You know all those sanctus redactus targets? The mobians with the personal shields? Those are also captains. So the theory that the leader of the 6th was killed makes sense as we don't see anybody above captain in game. So it seems the captains had a coup vs the leader(s) of the 6th and purged the loyalist elements, leaving only the traitor captains and below.

And we don't see any spacecraft above Atoma except the Rouge Trader's and the penitentiary one.

[@GalenLeRaaz]

So, here is my theory - the "Darktide"(tm) was ALREADY on Atoma Prime, most possibly on the other side of the planet. There are mentions of another Hive city on Atoma Prime, which all contact lost with and any info was already classified by Administratum/Inquisition.

[@dystopianchimp]
