The negative impact of hypno indoctrination is interesting. It makes me wonder about the long-term reliability of Cawl's first crop of Primaris Marines. 10k years of hypno indoctrination may not have such acute effects as this rushed process, but still, one of Cawl's projects has got to blow up in his face eventually.
Guy who was flash inducted 6 months ago and doesn't realize it refusing to let a guy who was flash inducted last week sit with him at lunch
Warhawk has a great scene where White Scars inductii was assembled for deployment and onw of the Keshig is there to swear them in and they draw attention their shiny new mk.6 against the old marines battered terminator armour.
Actually "terata" (térata) means monsters in Greek…A good choice of a word for Fabius' creations…
I would say that Alpha, the first Primaris that ArcMagos Cawl made being one of best examples of both savage warrior almost unbeatable, who is probably thousands of years old, while also being one of greatest Primaris psykers, beside his depressing demenour, is probably closest to invincible, that humanity in the 42nd milenia can make..
Yet his demenour, being surrounded with arogant Cawl creations all the time is rather expected..
Honestly, although I do disagree with a lot of the codex's tenants and aims, The Horus Heresy pretty much damn near shattered many legions and birthed chapters, not legions, leading a pretty unavoidable legion disintegration.
On the loyalist side, the Iron hands are the best example. The Iron hands were brutalised on Istvaan, and while they were much, larger than the others 2 legions, being able to keep fighting after the heresy, they were shattered and splintered and their senior leadership and primarch had died. Iron Hands forces spent the 7 years of the heresy fighting on their own, or alongside other imperial forces, but most importantly *without contact from other Iron Hands*. So these conditions led to the diversification of the Iron hands. One chapter sized group of broken and bruised veterans fighting a guerrilla war against the advancing traitor hordes in the frontlines would differ vastly from a chapter of newer recruits fighting alongside the Ultramarines. The newer influx of scratch built recruits, would vary different from the older ones. Combine that with the various Blackshield warbands being turned into chapters and you have a bunch of completely different and alien forces.
This also explains the disintegration of the Traitor legions just as well as the influence of chaos and the degeneration of the legion command structure and order of battle. The traitor legions on average took the most attrition, being spread out and thrust into the fires of battle, and being flooded by the new and cheap Inductii. Combine that with various legions like the Night Lords being absolutely thrashed by the Dark Angels or the World Eaters being, well, The World Eaters then it can be easily explained why they would turn into chaos warbands, the Sons of Horus and Night Lords becoming thugs and street gangers in power armour.
Its actually quite sad, Ironic and fascinating that the Blood angels went back to their 'Revenant Legion' roots, eating the flesh of their comrades instead of their enemies.

Very interesting topic! Thanks for your work!
Imagine being a Terran Legionary, according to the Principia Bellicosa
Seeing Inductees like these being brought into the Legion?
It would disturb even stoic Astartes, Scribe
At least with the Primaris Astartes it is clear this is an extension of The Emperor's work, sanctioned and initiated by The Emperor
Not this. This is corruption. This is heresy.
@Oculis can you do an in universe in character 8nterview with Baldemort
Amazing video as always
Most excellent
Entire companies of inductii yet they have no rite of war for them.
So i figure my mk vi ironwarriors will be inducti ( cause what self respecting iton warrior would wear mark 6 right? 😅 )
How to paint them so they look like inducti n not ya normal IW legionnaire
So wait there was imperial fists recruited from the 16ths home world?
What an amazing topic
Well done brother! I enjoyed this one.
I would listen and put your videos on repeat were it not for the horrible beeping and uneccessary sound effect you have as your intro…get rid of it.
You have a very special voice. Soothing and unique.
