Space Marine groups that had the audacity to attack the Imperial Palace. Dark Angels The Black Legion Iron Warriors World Eaters Emperor's Children Death Guard Word Bearers Night Lords Thousand Sons And Alpha Legion. And i bet they occasionally infiltrate the palace just for laughs. Additions to the list Imperial Fists This list is incomplete. You can help by expanding it.
The Ultramarines threatened to once with 50 chapters at their back, and the Imperial Fists did once when fighting Goge Vandyre or however his name is spelt lol
The Dark Angels before the return of Lion had fallen(pun intended) to such pettiness that they would rather invade the imperial palace than just ask Guilliman to return their 'traitor' brother and except that they had traitor's too like any other legion glad that Lion has returned and the First Legion shall be made anew
I do agree that the one really dumb thing about the Dark Angels is that they thought they'd all be killed and slandered for having traitors. Like... the White Scars actually lost nearly half their Legion directly, and the Dark Angels only sent back 500 that then raised a bunch of "traitors." It's only because nobody gives a shit about the Khan's little biker boys that the Dark Angels get shit for it.
There is a bit of a difference here, because not only did the Dark Angels also have traitors, but one of the traitors was their second highest ranking member Luthor and it started on their own home world caliban. Furthermore their primarch disappeared just as they fought these traitors, which means there was no longer anyone higher up in the hierarchy that was loyal. With the disappearance of the Primarch it was literally their highest ranking member that was a traitor. It might not necessarily be canon, but remember the ending of Space Marine 1? The Inquisitor literally said "you will submit to my authority or we will have to assume that you have corrupted everyone under your command". With the Inquisition thinking like that, and probably even more so during the Horus Heresy, that would mean that the assumption would be that all of the Dark Angels would be corrupted. Not just a splinter group. But that is the beauty of the Dark Angels lore. They are forced into doing all those "traitorous" things literally because of imperial dogma. They can only remain loyal servants of the emperor by doing that stuff.
True. If anything, this is actually strange for the Dark Angels. They happily capitalize on using lies about the Fallen to further their goals. So, seeing the Fallen already being treated like traitors would have given them the perfect opportunity to play it up and play along and be like "Yeah, so, can we have those traitors to our Legion and punish them ourselves? You can watch the executions if you want."
Definitely the blood raven's... I like to imagine that while all of this happened, the blood raven and trazyn went on a treasure hunt on the golden palace
Angelos: I don’t need this artifact, but the one over there is crucial for the Chapter. Trazyn: Oh is it? Well for me it is the other way around that first one would look beautiful in an display I am working on on Solemnace. *they shake hands and have conversations like this every few meters. Later there will be wondering why a shitload of artifacts are missing*
at this point the chaos legions gotta designate a prick in their ranks as the alpha legion spy for shits and giggles. and the alpha legion has a guy chuckling at them for pickimg the wrong marine and another laughing, being the designated spy and noone taking it serious.
The coolest part of the book for me was when a custodian, a shadow keeper, went head to head with the dark angels. He killed three and before he could slay the fourth, the first three bodies hadn’t dropped to the ground yet. Without mordachai’s powerful psychic power which wasn’t enough to completely stop the custodes only slow him, they would have all been killed within a matter of seconds. The custodes are truly built different.
Not normal dark angels mind you, terminators and the only reason they even scratched a shadow keeper is because custodes are utterly useless when faced against psychic attacks without the SoS
@@darkpotato8622they weren't in terminator armour they were all wearing regular marine armour if they wore terminator armour they would have no diffed the custode And the fallen Terminator armour is no joke especially with the fire power it allows the user to bring
When the Dark Angels get wind of one of the Fallen, they will stop at NOTHING to either kill or capture him. They are obsessive and paranoid to an extreme that goes beyond any known extremes.
It is called: "Do not let it be openly known that half of one of the most 'faithful' legions betrayed the Imperium almost immediately during the heresy."
@Lameyoutubehandle because the Space Wolves with their Wulfen or the Blood Angels with the Red Thirst & Black Rage have never done anything to hide their own history...no, not at all.
@@WhiteIkiryo-yt2itI mean.. scale, dude. Wulfen are a few guys, the black rage isn't really treachery, but tens of thousands of dark angels turned on the imperium.
What I love is that Cypher is basically the equivalent in 40k of a shitposter that can doxx your location at any moment, do something nobody understands in the moment and then leave
Yes they are This is quite literally the kind of shit the lion would do himself FFS he orbital bombarded a mountain range to get at kurze on one of GUILLIMANS planets after being told not to Then let's not forget that he and his legions real purpose was to silently eradicate anything that came their way The lion will pretty much just go "yeah when I was younger I would have done that too"
Don't forget the furries who constantly fuck up and do more harm than good like pushing a legion to chaos, letting Horus live, not fighting at terra etc
The Dark Angels, probably one of the most Useless Loyal Astartes chapters to exist. They're so caught up with themselves that they're more of a detriment to those around them half the time than an angry commisar.
@@Subject-106 It's not like the Custodes look any better about this. It sounds like they didn't even disarm the traitor, and somehow failed to keep him ignorant of what was going on outside his prison. I said "fish in a barrel". He should have been naked and uninformed, and probably even locked in a full-body metal harness.
"That's called treason. Looks like Hjorfar was right. Lock n load." - Brother Storn of the Imperial Fists, back from his tour in the Deathwatch where he served alongside Brother Hjorfar of the Space Wolves
Oh wow a space furry (totally loyal guys who would never do anything like push loyal marines to chaos, leave the arch enemy alive, and not defend holy terra to make up for their fuck up) has an objectively false opinion? Woweee
And their Chapters promptly disappear. The Emperor gave the Dark Angels weapons that can reset the galaxy so humanity can start over in relative peace if the Great Crusade failed. If Chapters try to destroy them while they're going after basically a huge chunk of Fallen plus Cypher, they might actually use one of those super weapons to just erase those Chapters as obstacles in their path. They also have a lot more they presumably maintained and kept out of harm's way all this time. Like their tech from the Great Crusade to prevent it from being damaged, lost, or destroyed. Most Chapters have done this. The difference is that the Dark Angels during the Great Crusade were basically a Dark Age of Technology army and fleet. I think it was three ships that Lion brought to Ultramar during the whole Imperium Secundus thing and Guilliman had said not to fire on them because even those ships had the power to effortlessly wipe out Macragge's defenses and split the planet in half. They can literally do whatever they want and the Imperium will never act against them out of fear.
The Custodes have no place to talk. They're the greatest traitors of all. The Emperor gave them the authority to rule in his place, with the Captain-General himself having literally the Emperor's personal authority. They've chosen to sit on it for ten thousand years as the Emperor's hopes and dreams crumble around them. They betrayed him more thoroughly than even Horus.
He’ll look at his Fallen son only to realize it was actually his long lost brother Omegon. Who fled the Battle of Pluto after Rogal Dorn killed Alpharius in single combat
The team sent in almost fails because a single shadowkeeper killed 6 of them in "six human heartbeats" with the librarian almost dying of exertion trying to restrain him so they can unload plasma and heavy weapons on him. The custodian still lives for much longer. This is also technically heresy and should result in censure of the chapter because the custodes are members of the Emperor's household
The Dark Angels were basically a Dark Age army and navy during the Great Crusade and presumably retired that tech to keep it safe as the Imperial tech degraded. So, not someone the Imperium is willing to mess with. On top of that, the Dark Angels were given numerous weapons with which they were to "reset the galaxy" if the Great Crusade failed so humanity could start over in a galaxy without aliens. There is no way in Hell the Custodes are going to provoke these guys. This is pretty much why the Dark Angels can do whatever they want and no one even voices a complaint at the upper levels of Imperial authority. They like not being annihilated, thank you very much.
Meanwhile the custodes invade the palace as practice on a routine schedule, one custodes even got so far as to raise his sword to the emperor before he was ordered to stop
He also got to the point he could have gone in and killed the emperor, but the emperor using a dying custodes as a puppet told him it wasn't time yet, come back later, i know you can do it again.
Yes alpha legion. Cause Alpharius literally did it just to tell dad: if i wanted to, you‘d be dead rn you really gotta step up your defenses around here.
And yet despite this eternal hunt they consistently step up to defend humanity Maybe if you actually read their books and not memes you'd realise how they actually are loyal and easily one of if not the greatest chapter
Forgive my ignorance, but The Dark Angels try to capture the Fallen so the Imperium doesn’t find out that half the legion went traitor, I think. But doesn’t the Imperium already know that since they have Fallen Angels imprisoned already on Terra??
I like to believe this TTS Cypher who was able to escape by dressing up as a Dark Angel with the other Dark Angels oblivious that Cypher is with them the whole time.
Sonetimes i think they make overpower characters just for the fun of it. How can Cypher escape the dark cells, evade capture by the dark angels, the officio assassinorum and the custodes?!
Guilliman: "What the fuck just happened here?" Cipher: "They all came to kill me, sir." Guilliman: "They WHAT? Why are the Dark Angels trying to do that?" Cipher: "Because they've thought I was evil for the last 10k years and have been hunting me and others like me for that long, because your brother, my Primarch never understood people and so called us traitors when we tried to protect him when he didn't ask for it." Guilliman: "... The Lion never really was good at reading people. Human emotion and motivations were blank to him." Cipher: "As you say, sir. It's why our Legion ... our Chapter... cloaks itself in ritualized trials." Guilliman: "Yeah. I can see how that would work. You'd 'prove' yourself to him, so he would be able to trust you. But if you did anything outside of that, his trust evaporates."
And in reality "luthor was about to let the lion die so the lion trying to show luthor he still trusts him left him in charge of recruitment, luthor then went on to gaslight all of us into betraying the imperium, I found some weird chaotic power and decided to kill a loyal marine starting a small civil war then became luthors right hand man and didn't do anything to try stopping the incoming civil war between primarch and luthor"
The trust was "broken" because luthor was about to let a ship turned nuclear bomb kill the lion But only at the last minute changed his mind right before the bomb went off The lion sent everyone "involved" back to Caliban to show he still trusted them but not enough to have around him Zahariel didn't even attempt to probe further about what luthor was horrified at seeing on the ship turned nuclear bomb, so yeah lion was rightfully distrusting and yet still gave them a chance to prove he could trust them But of course no one actually reads the books They just get info from memes
The imperial fists during the war of the beast threw out the high lords to take direct command of Terra and were ready to unplug the emperors life support
"were coming in to get someone, you need to help" "and if we say no?" "i suppose we could wake up one of those men of iron in storage" "na we will help, you're good"
One would imagine that by now the Dark Angels would know better than to keep trying to bring in Cypher. I mean its bloody Cypher. The guy that has the Emperor in is back pocket to get out of jams, or for grins. Either way.

Forgive my ignorance, but The Dark Angels try to capture the Fallen so the Imperium doesn’t find out that half the legion went traitor, I think. But doesn’t the Imperium already know that since they have Fallen Angels imprisoned already on Terra??
“Guys this might be a bit much…even for us.”
My boy Rouboute could casually stride into the emperor's throne room again no problem
The BALLS… and the utter FAILURE. The Dark Angels sound like an embarrassment.
They are. They're pathetic. Hopefully the Lion will set them straight. With the Nemiel treatment.
How is it failure? Their invasion was a success. They didn't achieve their goal, but they still _got into to the palace._
Dark Angels repeatedly proving that my hating of them is justified
"Can you think of any Legion that has the balls to invade the Emperor's bachelor pad?"
I can think of 9.
Azmodai is just waiting for the day he'll get his swords on cypher right now he's just drooling
You have to admire the sheer brass balls of them invading the palace, even if it was incredibly stupid.
This custodes failure will be sent to retirement. Lmao
My Dark Angels oc is face-palming at this.
Balls… sure, it’s the lack of BRAINS. That concern me, the Emperors home gets attacked and they completely ignore it. Holy hell
lemme guess: the librarian was supported by his battle brother and best friend rigby.
I like to believe this TTS Cypher who was able to escape by dressing up as a Dark Angel with the other Dark Angels oblivious that Cypher is with them the whole time.
This is on of the reasons why i like the dark angles.
Sonetimes i think they make overpower characters just for the fun of it. How can Cypher escape the dark cells, evade capture by the dark angels, the officio assassinorum and the custodes?!
Man Deadlifts is sounding more British than usual
I'm just getting into warhammer lore but even I know that at least the harlequins have stopped by big E's flat before
The Custodes get their butt kicked again.
Good thing Asmodai didn’t try to invade the palace more blood would have been spilled. 😂
"You know who else invaded the imperial palace to free their brother? MY MOM!"
Guilliman: "What the fuck just happened here?"
Cipher: "They all came to kill me, sir."
Guilliman: "They WHAT? Why are the Dark Angels trying to do that?"
Cipher: "Because they've thought I was evil for the last 10k years and have been hunting me and others like me for that long, because your brother, my Primarch never understood people and so called us traitors when we tried to protect him when he didn't ask for it."
Guilliman: "... The Lion never really was good at reading people. Human emotion and motivations were blank to him."
Cipher: "As you say, sir. It's why our Legion ... our Chapter... cloaks itself in ritualized trials."
Guilliman: "Yeah. I can see how that would work. You'd 'prove' yourself to him, so he would be able to trust you. But if you did anything outside of that, his trust evaporates."
And in reality "luthor was about to let the lion die so the lion trying to show luthor he still trusts him left him in charge of recruitment, luthor then went on to gaslight all of us into betraying the imperium, I found some weird chaotic power and decided to kill a loyal marine starting a small civil war then became luthors right hand man and didn't do anything to try stopping the incoming civil war between primarch and luthor"
The trust was "broken" because luthor was about to let a ship turned nuclear bomb kill the lion
But only at the last minute changed his mind right before the bomb went off
The lion sent everyone "involved" back to Caliban to show he still trusted them but not enough to have around him
Zahariel didn't even attempt to probe further about what luthor was horrified at seeing on the ship turned nuclear bomb, so yeah lion was rightfully distrusting and yet still gave them a chance to prove he could trust them
But of course no one actually reads the books
They just get info from memes
I can think of at least 10 others, 11 if I squint at the Sisters of Battle hard enough
The imperial fists during the war of the beast threw out the high lords to take direct command of Terra and were ready to unplug the emperors life support
Exactly why i hate the DA. Terra itself is under siege and they don't help.
They sent 16 marines and we're only there because of how urgent the situation (cypher) is
They were too busy fighting elsewhere in the galaxy
Alpha Legion: I sleep
So the imperial palace has the distinction of being invaded by ten of the Emperor's legions at some point....
All traitors after all.
Cypher really trying for that "Greatest Troll in the Galaxy" title, huh?
Want to say the Dark Angels 3 v 1 a Custodes at one point and only 1 Dark Angel died.
2 words, The minotaurs
it' all fun and games, until Lion hears about this XD
Here's a fun question: Can you see Joaquin Phoenix Playing Life Action Conrad kurz
And Keanu Reeves as clovix corax
It works
I don’t think that’s so much an “invasion” as it is “Hurry the fuck up before the custodians notice.”
it's good for those two to work together
"were coming in to get someone, you need to help"
"and if we say no?"
"i suppose we could wake up one of those men of iron in storage"
"na we will help, you're good"
I’m pretty sure you’ll just have to tell a Salamander that one of the Artifacts of Vulkan is in the Palace
THE SONS OF RUSS HAVE MORE THEN JUST THE BALLS!!!
They have brain damage
let me introduce the Black Templars who destroyed Primaris and some custodes at it aswell.
Good, my boys had a good reason to errr test the palace defences...... yes, thats it
One would imagine that by now the Dark Angels would know better than to keep trying to bring in Cypher. I mean its bloody Cypher. The guy that has the Emperor in is back pocket to get out of jams, or for grins. Either way.
