What are the most powerful Traitor Legions? Well this is kind of a hard question to answer since the warhammer 40k armies are kinda like real life ones in a way that they are constantly changing and dynamic, for example, the Dark angels before the Horus Heresy were one of the most numerous and hence one of the most powerful and now, as of the 42nd millenium they are just composed of a few successor chapters, the same goes to the others as well as the chaos traitor legions. But we are going to take the m42 numbers and their deeds in the past to justify the ranking.

This might surprise you but the Nightlord gene seed is one of the purest and most stable known, even when compared to those legions who remained loyal.

Just couple minor details.. 0:50 Night Lords had, before the Heresy, one of the most stable gene seed and even after Heresy, they seem to bear the least evidence of mutation out of all the the traitor Legions. Insane, hells yeah but the gene seed was stable. 5:52 Alpha Legions numbers can be disputed but it wasn't particularly smol compared to other legions. Estimates are around 90-180k.

Pre heresy they rumoured to have one of the largest legions due to the type of warfare the conducted causing them to have considerably lower death tolls. They also were happy to field human operatives which was a lot of the time shunned by the other legions out of pure arrogance.

I agree with this list and makes perfect sense, However in my opinion if the death guard wanted to, they could become the number 1. Simply because of the damage they cause and how resilient they are, i imagine them being an immovable object and an unstoppable force combined and also even when they lose they technically win because the worlds they attack are left with demonic AIDS. And i reckon that their conquered worlds are just as pleasant so attacking them (aside from orbit) could be really damaging aswell And they do this mostly as a united force, utterly horrifying and they stand up for their name. The death guard arent my favourite, though not far from it an army of "undead" Space marines is pretty dope and the fact that they are this powerful is just fitting for them.

@crimsonknight7011 Год назад

Alpha Legion are possibly he biggest thorn in the Inquisitions side due to how many worlds they infiltrate and how many sleeper agents they have. One of the biggest strengths is that if there is any trace of Alpha Legion being around then the command groups are skeptical of everyone around them and means they are more focused on their subordinates possible treachery than on the enemy they are fighting. Also due to the way they fight by making the populace fight for them they actually rarely get into direct combat and have much fewer Astartes casualties than any of the other legions/war bands.

@An_Ian Год назад

Let's continue with this for my first statement the night Lord's Gene seed is one of the most stable and the night Lords are not chaos undivided they actually hate chaos Bunches of their warbands have gone off and pledged themselves to different chaos Gods but as a whole they hated chaos they hated demons and sevatar was actually one of the most honorable Marines you can find. But yeah they're Gene seed know it's highly stable like ridiculously stable

@baggettotonio6837 Год назад

Saying that the Night Lord are the Weakest SMC legion because they use fear tactics(and raid / any non frontal assault) that work mostly on human and few xenos species like Eldar (and Tau I assume) would be a better point, plus NL, I mean the OG Night lord like Konrad Sevatar, and Talos are mostly traitor than Chaotic since they remember for what they became traitor, they actually the only legion that have a very good point betraying Big E, since Big E used them has a "punishing squad" and they started to enjoying a bit too much skinning alive people and that why Big E wanted to confront the Legion before Itsvan drop site massacre happen.

Because they simply can't team up. Their thirst for blood makes them unable to unite, it is depicted in the book "Betrayer - Blood for the blood god" when Leman Russ got beaten by Angron in a duel. At the end of the duel, when Russ is about to be unmade, a pack of Space Wolves rescue their primarch surrounding Angron and aiming at his head with their bolters. Meanwhile, World Eaters are too busy fighting for their individualistic pleasure to worry about their primarch being on the verge of being executed.

@My_name_is_Alpharius Год назад

Good list. There are a lot of good points here; however, I don't think the Night Lords or Alpha Legion are actually Chaos. The Night Lords were frankly a bunch of sadists who ruled through terror because of KC and how Nostramo was. The Alpha Legion was convinced by the Kabal that the only way to destroy the Chaos gods was for Horus to win. This would have led to humanity dying out, and then Chaos would have not much left to feed on. Disclaimer: I could be totally wrong about this. :P

@e-san6111 Год назад

Agreed. The Night Lords have been using fear tactics since Konrad was found, it’s just that they’re doing it for Chaos now. As for the Alpha Legion, I would say they’re like the Fallen: Some fell to Chaos, some think they’re doing the right thing, and others are unaware of their legion’s true goal.

Perturabo like Angron became unwilling became Deamon Prince they we're Forced to ascend , in Angron sake because his already dying and Lorgar unwillingly ascend Angron to Demonhood while Perturabo's life force was stripped and force back in his body degrading his Primarch physiology because Fulgrim that Whore son back stabbed him was also forced to ascend after the Iron Cage but I am hoping they retcon that and give Us an aging Perturabo instead

Pretty sure it is canon that when Horus found "Alpharius" it was actually Omegon. They had switched before hand. So when they found "Omegon" it was Alpharius. That means that when Rogal Dorn killed "Alpharius" he actually killed Omegon and "Omegon" is actually Alpharius who is still alive. So the real Alpharius is alive and the real Omegon was killed by Dorn. "Alpharius" who was actually Omegon was a traitor, while "Omegon" who was actually Alpharius was a loyalist, so the real Alpharius is a loyalist and the real Omegon is a traitor.
