    You already know how to please the Machine Gods at this point so thank you so much. And make your voices heard for which faction you would like to see next!
    -Isyander
    Everything below is for the omnissiah. But like, you can read it if you want. Just a synopsis of the video you're watching.
    In the sprawling, war-torn galaxy of Warhammer 40K, the Space Wolves stand as a beacon of heroism, ferocity, and unwavering loyalty. Originating from the icy death world of Fenris, these warriors, also known as the Sons of Russ or Vlka Fenryka, are celebrated across the Imperium for their valor and unyielding spirit. Renowned for their prowess in battle, the Space Wolves embody the characteristics of their Primarch, Leman Russ, blending the savagery of wolves with the nobility of the greatest human warriors.
    The Space Wolves' saga is woven from threads of myth, glory, and brotherhood, painting a picture of a legion that is both barbaric and deeply honorable. Their story is one of contradictions, much like the harsh and untamed wilderness of Fenris, their homeworld. This planet, marked by its extreme climates, monstrous inhabitants, and relentless survival challenges, forges the Space Wolves into unparalleled warriors. Their culture, deeply entrenched in the traditions of Fenris, revolves around saga, feast, and the pursuit of personal glory, emphasizing the importance of individual valor and the legacy of heroes.
    The gene-seed of the Space Wolves, imbued with the essence of Fenris itself, manifests unique traits that further bond them to the wolves of their world. This connection influences their combat tactics, their sense of brotherhood, and even their physical appearance, setting them apart from other Space Marine chapters. However, this genetic heritage also carries the burden of the Wulfen curse, a stark reminder of their wild and uncontrollable nature.
    The Space Wolves' place within the Imperium is marked by a complex relationship with authority and a staunch defense of humanity. Their independent spirit and adherence to their ancient traditions often place them at odds with the more dogmatic elements of the Adeptus Astartes, leading to conflicts both internal and external. Despite these challenges, their courage and determination in the face of darkness have never wavered, earning them both respect and suspicion in equal measure.
    As the galaxy stands on the brink of annihilation, the Space Wolves continue to fight valiantly against the forces of Chaos and all who would threaten mankind. Their sagas, filled with heroic deeds and unimaginable sacrifices, continue to unfold, cementing their legacy as not just warriors, but as legends. From the ashes of Prospero to the battlefields of Armageddon, the Space Wolves' story is a testament to their enduring spirit, their commitment to the Allfather, and their place as one of the most storied chapters in the Warhammer 40K universe.

    How they did it: Logan Grimnar, Wolf Santa, full force ran in Terminator Armor, the stuff meant to be a bullet sponge (so defense, not speed), cut down both the Inquistor and the Grey Knight, wiped down his ax, and then basically asked "will there be a problem?" in a tone that said "I still have enough energy to kick all your assess"

    If I remember correctly, part of the things they did to end The Months of Shame, was they woke up Bjorn the Fell Handed (one of the oldest loyalist space marines, was the personal aid to Leman Russ, and the first Great Wolf after Russ disappeared), who basically told the Inquisition, the Grey Knights and the Wolves "Everyone sit down.....NOW". After telling the survivors of the Inquisitor's group to stop groveling, he told the Inquisition to not come back, then demanded that the Grey Knights (the most secretive and classified space marines) explain exactly who they were and why the Wolves shouldn't kill them now...and everyone listened to him.

    Slight correction. 44:30 Russ did not go out of his way to murder the Thousand Sons at the start. He tried a hail Magnus for his surrender. Even useing one of his legions "spies" to attempt a pshychic message. He did not want to see another brother wiped off the ledger, even one he hated like Magnus. But, when he choose to unleash his sons, there was a no prisoner mentality among his men.

      ​@VA_Nightshade Additionally, the initial standoff only arose due to Ahriman's outright disobedience of Magnus' orders.
      Magnus ordered his Legion to laydown arms and surrender their Primarch (Magnus himself) peacefully, accept any casualties taken in the intial planet fall of the Wolves and not fight back (especially with Psykers) under any circumstances.
      Ahriman refused those orders and commanded the Thousand Sons to defend Magnus with everything they had if the Wolves made planet fall.
      They (The Thousand Sons) fired opon and killed the loyal messengers sent by the Wolves traitorous human Auxiliaries as the traitorous Astropath's psychic message reached Ahriman misinforming him that the landing craft had a Kill Team aboard sent to Execute Magnus and the Chief Librarian himself.
      Russ was told they literally rejected psychic messages and destroyed the messengers landing craft as a show of defiance.
      From there Russ unleashed that fury of orbital bombardment as a message for the Thousand Sons to stand down. Which, did not deter Ahriman or the Legion.
      It only made them want to fight to defend Magnus even more.
      It was pretty much a slaugther from that point on, Russ and the Wolves decended and fought ruthlessly. Many Thousand Sons did die due to hesitation, in firing on the refugees or even at any Space Wolf.
      The Wolves never hesitated after that however, they were essentially swayed by the "proof" of the Thousand Sons Herasy and betrayal by that point.
      When the Thousan sons started throwing out offensive psychic attacks, that only reinforced their "Proof".
      It was ultimately Ahriman's call to defend and use psykers that doomed most of the Thousand Sons that died to their fate that day.
      Ahriman was always power hungry bastard that coveted the power that came from all sorts of forbidden knowledge.
      He was an easy mark for chaos, Tzeench more specifically.

      this is one of those things that has been rewritten a few times. in the old 30k codexes they talk about the fall in a much more murder gung ho manner. when the novel came out for the horus heresy series, that changed a lot, making russ much more willing to come and take him without burning everything to the ground. that same book also alludes very heavily that russ and the wolves are responsible for at least 1 of the 2 missing legions being wiped out, giving a bit more credence to his title as the emperor's executioner.

Yes, Horus did contact Leman along the way and told him to kill Magnus and the Sons, but here’s the special thing now: despite Leman being „the executioner“ and hating Magnus, he did not want to Kill his brother.
    Before Leman & the Wolves landed on Prospero, Leman wanted to communicate with Magnus one last time because despite his reputation, when it came to critical situations, Leman always had a sound mind of judgement and was extremely reliable. He wanted to talk to Magnus and despite Horus‘ orders, wanted to end the whole conflict peacefully and take Magnus with him to Terra to see the Emperor. But since Magnus refused to answer his calls and rejected any advances for communication, Leman was forced to raise his hand and only then decided to attack Prospero. He didn’t go in foaming out his mouth just waiting to murder his brother and his Legion

    I am surprised that they completely left out any mention of the Dark Angels. Yes, the Space Wolves and Thousand Sons have a deep hatred for one another, but it’s the Dark Angels that are their biggest rivals.
    For instance, after the Lion knocked out Leman with that sucker punch, the two Legions started arguing and bickering on who was the rightful winner of the fight (Wolves say Lion cheated while the Angels said Leman lost after opening his guard up by laughing) and so decided that on a yearly basis, the Angels and Wolves meet up and their choses champions fight each other and the winner of the fight and their Legion get to be „the correct answer“ on the debate on who fairly won the fight and in general show who is the better legion with that W.
    I think in the beginning, when they first came up with the idea, the champion of the wolves approached the Lion and demanded to face his champion, only for Lion to say: „it’s me“ and then punched the guy across the room, knocking him out.

    So, I have a home made space marine chapter that is descended from the space wolves called the flaming tongues. They are a part of the cursed founding, and were an attempt to remove the wolfen curse from the space wolves and it worked. The problem is the curse of the wolfen got replaced with the curse of the drunkard as in they are all alcoholics. They also have a mutation in their acid spitting gland which lets them spit napalm hot enough to cook a space marine in armor. They also have a two other mutations one in their muscles which makes them stronger the more alcohol they drink, and the other makes them more resistant to the warp which makes them especially effective against chaos, and their librarians can just spam psychic powers without concern. They are a fleet based chapter with their ships being named after various alcoholic beverages like the ISS IPA or its sister ship the ISS Unfiltered IPA, and every ship is equipped the the means to produce an endless stream of alcohol. Their recruitment process is similar to the space wolves where there are multiple steps accept they just hand you a really strong gene seed cocktail, and if your conscious after downing it your drunk behind is strapped to a table for organ implantation if not then they just shoot you out the airlock. They have a bright red color schemes and my home group even came up with unique rules for them like the ultra marines get.
