I like the Night Lords for the same reason I like Frank Horrigan. In an era where a lot of popular IPs are obsessed with trying to make sympathetic villains, it's cathartic to see unrepentant war criminals instead. Also, like you said, they don't fight like space marines and, funny enough, despite being the most brutal chapter, they probably killed the least. Instead of warring with entire planets, they scare planets into compliance. In other words, them being evil doesn't unskin your wife and kids.

They are just fucked up in so many ways, particularly in being the 'masters of fear' yet are probably the biggest cowards of all space marines. Possibly of any faction even (like the Drukari).

[@barlotardy]

Night Lords are interesting because they kind of really suck at the actual job of being a space marine. Like, the way they operate, why even bother making most of them supersoldiers? Except Sevatar; It's almost like 95% of the legion's actual martial skill got crammed into him and him alone.

[@Mikazuchireborn]

Definitely a combination of Night Lord battle doctrine, Gendor Skraivok deliberately recruiting kids who have no business becoming Space Marines, and Konrad inability/unwillingness to fix things. If Night Lords were fighting the kind of battles the others legions were doing at the time (massive wars against mighty empires), I feel a lot of those inferior Marines would have been filtered out. You don't need to be superhuman in order to brutalize a bunch of terrified human civvies, but it definitely helps.

Edit: The Night Lords Chaos Lord in the Morvenn Vahl book is named Kol Rakul, The Death of Saints. His name in Nostroman likely means Cold and Cruel. It is also worth noting that titles among The Night Lords are either self-imposed, or ironic, so either Kol gave himself the title as he has some history with The Argent Shroud, or he has ran from every battle against The Sororitas lol.

[@jackbaxter2223]

Like just think, if you took a child that was forced through barbaric trials by combat that kill 99% of grown men and gave them literal superhuman abilities and conditioning to where they basically only fully understand combat you're likely not gonna get the philosophical Blood Angels, reasonable Ultramarines, or caring Salamanders, you're probably gonna end up with the opportunistic, violence-driven, and power-obsessed Night Lords.

I can say...because they are oddly one of the most human space marine legions. We can thank the trilogy really. It does give us a legion where we have a tragic nature to it. As we can look on Konrad, who just needed a hug. The other legions needed daemons and gods to turn them evil, Night Lords just are. They were practically raised to be so. Yet, they are self-aware of it. They do not lie to themselves of their nature. And again, because of the trilogy, we can see that they are more than this. Be it Talos, Uzas, or even the warsage...there is simply humanity still within them that can be seen through the flayed skin and general horror, they are just large children that want to be loved by their mentally ill father.

I'm not a huge night lords fan per say, but they do interest me. Blood Angels were my first army so there is bias in what i say.

The night lords interest me as they feel like an opposite, where they blood angels are optimistic the night lords are pessimistic. How Konrad and Sanguinis viewed their foresight shows is most succinctly. Their contrast is far more interesting to me compared to say the world eaters / angron and the blood angels / Sanguinis.

The Night Lords have remained true to themselves. They are not "stupid evil". Unlike say the Word Bearers, the Night Lords never drank the Kool Aid. They are not high on copium ( or Warp Dust, like the Emperor's Children). Using guerilla tactics when you are fighting a war of attrition against an empire with superior logistics and almost limitless manpower, is not "cowardly", it is just common sense.

I like them because they were the only legion to both have their primarch hate them and have that feeling be mutual.

They have no real plans on making things better, they want these huge ideas to come to pass, they are both violent and depraved, but never on behalf of someone else. Nightlords exists purely for nightlords and and really don't care what people say about how underhanded and evil they are.
