    I like the bit of lore stating that if the dacades long conflict between the ork empires of Dregruk and Gathrog had been resolved, or if the two ork warlords joined forces against Abaddons 13th black crusade at Cadia (much like Ghazghkull and Nazdreg), then they could have severely disrupted Abaddons plans for galactic conquest, which would have saved the entire galaxy from annihilation. Yet the two warlords were never interested in fighting Abaddon, seeing as they were having a perfectly good scrap between each other.
    Always found that quite amusing

      IIRC, this is mainly because Games Workshop based the Fall of Cadia on a series of actual games held at a special event. Loads of players brough their own armies to individual games to 'wargame' the 13th Black Crusade. If the Imperial forces had won at the event, Cadia would still be there.

    I think my favorite part about the planet being broken is that you could still see lasgun fire from the regiments still fighting in active combat because of the void shield surrounding cities. Like the guard didn’t even give up fighting even though they were on a “doomed” planet.

    The Imperium suffered another defeat that was as bad if not worse than the fall of Cadia 10,000 years ago and it wasn't the Emperor's fall.
    The drop site massacre.
    There is a reason why the Ultramarines have so many successor chapters and the Salamanders don't.
    Some of the legions never recovered from the near 100% losses they suffered during the opening shots of the Horus Heresy even 10,000 years later.

      It wouldn't be that big of a deal if the Emperor was around and lifted some of the standards of the ascension procedure or introduced Corax's Raptor Project to all Loyalist Legions for a time.
      The loss of the Emperor in general is just the biggest defeat in the Imperiums history.

      @@Oppen1945 True, the emperor (foolishly) structured the entire Imperium around himself and Terra.
      The loss of the Emperor and the inevitable loss of Terra when he eventually dies and lets all the warp nightmares trying to break through in might be the final nail in the coffin for Humanity.

      Is the geneseed replacable? If the geneseed is lost, is that a permanent loss to the chapter’s number?

    • @seanfleming7206
      @seanfleming7206 3 місяці тому +1

      @@dean2521 Space marines very slowly grow new geneseed in their body. Don't remember the exact mechanics but let's say you use "1" geneseed to create a space marine.
      Eventually after god knows how long, if that space marine were to die and their geneseed harvested, you would get "2" geneseed back.
      It's a very slow process and each geneseed lost is a stain on the chapters honour, a piece of their history, the legacy of one of their brothers gone forever.
      With how many died during the dropsite massacre, some of the legions lost the vast majority of their geneseed that day.
      Hence why there are so few salamander compared to ultramarine successor chapters.

    Cadia is like Switzerland but constantly getting attacked; the average swiss the moment he reach 18, he is on notice to do military service and after service, he get a goverment compensated Shotgun for his home, a basement bunker and a degree in banking to even live.
    Before service, a swiss child, would enter a Gun range festival to celebrate the founding of the Swiss Confederacy to have fun and great familiarity with a SIG rifles
    Henceforth, Cadia is just Switzerland but you dial it, you dial not to 11 but at maximum until the knob broke with planetary scale
