@@christophercombs7561 The Iron Warriors are the epitome of wasted potential. They had such high aspirations for the Imperium and they truly believed in making a glorious civilization for all of mankind, but then saw that dream being torn apart in front of their very eyes as they were relegated to menial garrison guarding, horrendous trench warfare, and siegebreaking, suffering innumerable casualties (which weren't helped by their Primarch seeing them less as sons and more as walking flesh bags with guns) which would result in widespread paranoia and backstabbing within the Legion itself, all the while everyone else hated them and most of their efforts were credited to the Imperial Fists instead. Then, after all their grueling work and effort, the ungrateful residents of Olympia, the only people that didn't completely despise them, rebelled. Perturabo, already on the brink from everything else going on, snaps and proceeds to attack his own homeworld and enslave the populace. Then came Horus' betrayal, and most of the Iron Warriors leapt at the opportunity of taking revenge against those that wronged them (even though most of their newfound allies, such as the Sons of Horus, were amongst those that looked down on them in the past as well, and others, such as the Emperor's Children, would continue to attempt to exploit them for their own benefit), turning their former once noble dream into a depraved mockery of it. Dedicating themselves to the destruction of the Imperium only to build their own twisted parody of it on top of the rubble. And even in the midst of all of this, there were still Iron Warriors that remained loyal to the Imperium, such as Barabas Dantioch, and yet despite his loyalty, he was repaid by luring the Tyranids to the galaxy, resulting in billions of deaths. Anyway, I'm getting off track here, back to the topic. Honsou is by all means, for lack of a better term, "a sick fuck", but had the Iron Warriors not deteriorated to their current state, he might not have been. Honsou is notably a very just and fair leader to his men (which is strange taking all of the above into consideration) and he is respectful towards both friend and foe alike. Had his Legion not fallen to Chaos, he might have been a valuable asset to the Imperium, and his character just adds to the overall tragedy of the Iron Warriors. But you probably already knew all of this and I'm just a broken record.

Warsmith Honsou devised a horrifyingly clever method of replenishing his CSM horde. Along with the Dark Mechanicus, he merged female slaves with a sort of geneseed through the use of the warp and long-forgotten technologies. The way it worked, babies or children would be sealed inside the feminine hideosities and emerge as skinless, fully formed CSM. After being "clothed" in the flayed skin of slaves, they were ready to go out and join the slaughter.

The process is probably different for every chapter. Specific types of implants, select surgeries over others, the indoctrination brainwashing is definitely different for every Chapter. But I believe, that it all comes from a prototype version of what Aspirants go through now. The process for creating Astartes BEFORE the Primarchs were located, was a uniform set up, implants, indoctrination, then told which legion to join, followed by an introductory seminar from that Legions highest ranking Astartes.

It's mentioned in the Ultramarines series that Uriel Ventris, the main characters, remembers his home world of Calth, though he's fuzzy on the details. He also remembers his training before his ascension, and can even speak the dialect of his home world if he chooses to. It can be different for each chapter, and the Salamanders in particular heavily value humility and remaining grounded, and would likely prioritize keeping their marine's memories of their former lives as vivid as possible, as to not forget where they came from.

The brainwashing primarily focuses on Chapter Loyalty, Loyalty to the Imperium/Emperor and Loyalty to the parent Legion. Only real select Chapters would probably really fuck with the minds of their Aspirants, the Black Templars, the Minotaurs, and the Marines Malevolent really come to mind, but there are probably others. Really secretive Chapters probably do some shit that might border on "Heretical" to keep specific things "In Chapter".

Loyalist Chapters, even those of less scrupulous character, have a vested interest in knowing where all of their gene seed came from. You also have the problem of iconic mutations. It wouldn't be too hard for a chapter to nab some Ultramarines geneseed and just pretend like the resultant space marine got lucky by not developing any of their chapters' flaws, but good luck trying to do anything with Salamanders geneseed if you aren't also a founding chapter of theirs. Certain inquisition elements might have questions as to where that one particular astartes with ash black skin and glowing red eyes in your Blood Angels successor chapter came from. Typically, Space Marines have more cause to worry about Adeptus Mechanicus trying to steal their geneseed than any other loyalist chapter.

Of course, I know that the Thousand Sons can reanimate dead Rubrics and Magnus himself can bring back dead sorcerers to life, but outside of probably calling dibs on rogue Librarians and unless they figured out the sorcerous equivalent of geneseeding, their numbers could very well still be on the lower end (though still numerous by Legion standards).

I gotta say I don't think it is much of a mystery as to how they do that. I think cloning might be another way - if Fabius finds say a family line that is particularly successful at producing viable offspring he might just in-vitro fertilize a bunch of eggs to produce male offpsring - grow them in artificial womabs/clone tanks and get all that messy hypno conditioning out of the way as early as possible. I'm sure there are breeding factories - it's the only way to match pace with an entity the size of the Imperium.

@ratface7329
@ratface7329 5 жыл бұрын
I think so. The alpha legion warband in Shroud of Night has one scout, as a named and prominent character/member. The same warband also used a seemingly demonic or some sort of twisted device to essentially "scout" their flight path (although it might've been just a particularly upset machine spirit). Likewise sorcery and cultists can do the trick aswell. Doubt there will be many scouts hanging around with the more chaotic/corrupted groups though. Groups like the AL have always been less heavy on a purely full fledged/typical astartes roster.

I submit the following possibility: Perhaps Heretic Astartes initiation, while having a harsh reputation. Is actually nada or close to. Perhaps just surviving the implantation process is sufficient initiation enough and given their possibly reduced recruitment numbers it just has to be that way. Also, Astartes who have fallen out of favor or are disowned by their chapter are known to trickle in to groups as like the Red Corsairs (there is a story where as much is mentioned), so that's another way.

They probably get resurrected by the power of the warp. For some veteran chaos marines of the original horus heresy that may explain why they have lived for 10000 - 11000 years. Magnus the red has "died" multiple times though he is technically a daemon now. Eliphas died multiple times in dawn of war 2 (he probably faked his death though). I know for certain that yvraine resurrected some thousands son ghost marine back into a normal astartes and then proceeded to kill them to toy with ahriman. Same with plague marines. They're basically warpified zombies in power armour and hence are undead which probably can be raised from repeated deaths.

The "Gods" probably have their toys, Ahriman, Erebus, Typhus, etc. Guys whom, if they WEREN'T protected by their "Gods", would have been killed by their own men centuries ago. Then there's the "Deamon Princes", Astartes who live forever as meatpuppets for Neverborn. Magnus, and his brothers CAN'T die. They can be "Destroyed", or banished back to the Warp, but true death is beyond them. At least as long as the corpse is still on his golden potty. But Chaos Astartes do die. And they die constantly. Just not enough to get rid of them.

Actually Imperium itself has pirates, zealots and bloodthirsty maniacs in its own ranks enough to keep endless strife going without Chaos Space Marines. They most likely use similar methods than loyalist Astartes and maybe their methods have developed so that adults can be altered as well. Loyal, brutal and cunning cultist-veteran already knows how to fight so improving his physical abilities is smart choice.

So, to me most chaos marines are no older than their loyalist counterparts and recruited from chaos worlds or else renegades.

Warp shenanigans plays a big role in how CSM keep their numbers up. They don't necessarily have to follow the normal gene seed rules. The opening of one of the battle fleet gothic games seems to imply you can just make a chosen cultist into a space marine via demon power. The Thousand Sons codex entry on sorcerers talks about the process of transforming psykers into aspiring sorcerers by shoving organs into them and then letting them bake in the power of "just as planned". Also, do the death guard even need new recruits? They're all undead anyway. Papa Mortarion and Grandpapa Nurgal can probably just resurrect the ones they really like. Same with Magnus for the TS. (the sons which aren't dust in armor anyway). As for everyone else, the gene seed of the original legions has been altered quite a bit thanks to apothecaries like Bile, so who knows what it's really capable of after it's been spliced with stuff like the Laer.

So looking at the chaos intro from BFGA2, it appears that if they capture a Space Marine they can harvest the organs and give it to a new recruit. Fabius Bile is also known to be an apothecary that could make new Space Marines but he was more obsessed with making Primarius Marines. In Warhammer Fantasy the chosen knight armor is some sort of cursed artifact that once worn it cannot be taken off, however the armor mutates and makes the larger and stronger. It is unlikely some sort of mutation will result in anything stable as a space marine. Being in the warp space their mortal ages are extended to a point where the attrition of centuries does not affect them. A human infected from a plague by nurgal will likely never be stable to be a space a marine. Same for Khorne Berzerkers or Slanesh Noise Marines. Odds are they have to be Space Marines before they are consecrated to a single pantheon. The Ruberic Marines from the Thousands sons are now ethereal dust sealed in an armor. It is likely if the armor be reforged than the essence of that dust could be reimbued into the armor rebirthing the Thousand son.

Ultramarines do this all the time. They technically rule a whole empire inside the Imperium so basically, everyone on those planets - multitudes of planets - are working for them. ALL OF THEM. It would be a very simple task to maintain a group of servants who's only job is to monitor the population for anyone that match the 'perfect recruit material' requirements they might have, and send them off to the nearest UM base. And because the Ultramarines are codex compliant and can only ever have 1000 marines... what will all the 'not 1% of all the best recruit material' be doing? Well, technically, the PDF on their planets always could use some more top-level recruits.
