Any attempted study of the XXth division of the gene-seed of the Legiones Astartes, a force that would eventually become known asthe Alpha Legion among a myriad of other names, is therefore fraught with difficulty and contradiction, and uncovering ‘truth’when applied to such a study is a vain hope. This is the case even to a record such as this, compiled with the highest of authorities and most extensive reach possible given the wreckage of the age of war which we have so recently survived.  \nLong before the vile treachery of Horus came into being, the XXth Legion, its formation, use and purpose was shrouded with mystery and deliberate concealment from the rest of the Imperium. This secrecy was colludedin—it is evident—by the highest circles of power; indeed, it cannot be doubted  \nthat it was by the Emperor’s will. It is the supposition of this record that the secrecy that surrounded this ‘outsider’ Legion and its hidden purposes, would later serve to conceal a cancerous transformation at its heart which was long in its gestation. This malediction; a delight in strife, and the increasing addiction to the exercising of its own preternatural abilities for subterfuge and destruction, clearly worsened after the ascension of Horus to Warmaster, although it was unlikely responsible for this to any extent except giving the Alpha Legion licence. The Alpha Legion thus became a twisting serpentine thing of formless shadows, as dangerous and venomous as the multi-headed monster of ancient myth that in latter days became its sigil and its sign. It was a weapon neither first the Emperor nor later the Warmaster could fully control.  \nWhat follows then is a fragmentary and in parts contradictory record. More so than any other of its type, this record relies on evidence of the Legion’s activities and operations as observed by covert sources, and those who have dealt with the Alpha Legion at first hand as both ally and enemy before the perfidy of Horus was to bear its bitter fruit. Such wisdom was often paid for in blood, rather than drawn from within the Legion’s own ranks—as such inside testimony itself is doubly filled with lies and misdirection. This then is a secret history of the Alpha Legion and in its lies perhaps maybe found the truth.  \norigins: The ghosT legion  \nThe pall of mystery surrounding the XXth Legion can be traced back to its creation.  \nThe last known of the gene-seed strains used in the creation of the Legiones Astartes at the end of the Unification Wars, factors relating to the XXth wer","cbCaikE7xXYCMQ5Y","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikE7xXYCMQ5Y","pdf",5950224,13,"English","# The AlphA legion\n## Numeration and cognomens\n## Strategic tendencies and domains\n## The secret history and its reliability\n## Origins and the pall of mystery\n## Early activities and rumors","[{\"question\":\"Why is the XXth/Alpha Legion history considered difficult to study?\",\"answer\":\"The record stresses that attempts to uncover truth are hindered by deliberate concealment and widespread falsehood, supposition, and paradox surrounding the Legion.\"},{\"question\":\"What strategic tendencies are associated with the Alpha Legion?\",\"answer\":\"The text lists surprise assault, sabotage, infiltration, insurgency and counter-insurgency, multivector attacks, interplanetary pursuit, decimation campaigns, and deep-range raiding operations.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the document describe the Alpha Legion’s origins and early decades?\",\"answer\":\"It traces the mystery to how the XXth Legion gene-seed strains were formed under unusual secrecy, then notes that early decades on Terra and during the reconquest of the Sol System are described only through sparse fragments, myths, and rumor.\"}]","The AlphA legion - The Unspeakable King | PDF",1791332452]
