Traitor Legions

The Traitor Legions

"For ten thousand years we have fought the Long War and our hatred still knows no succour. Those who have defied us shall feel the full wrath of Chaos..."

"Death to the False Emperor!"

"Death to the Weakling Imperium of Man!"

During the Horus Heresy nine of the twenty Space Marine Legions then in existence sided with the Warmaster Horus. These Legions were called the Traitor Legions by their Imperial opponents. Following the defeat of Horus the survivors of the Traitor Legions fled to the Eye of Terror where they remain to this day. Although each of the Traitor Legions has its own unique character and method of fighting they are all united in their hatred of the Imperium and their desire to be revenged for the defeat they suffered ten millennia ago.
