      Also don’t forget there’s a bunch of frozen sleeper spy’s under the imperial palace that are programmed to join the chaos or the imperium with just a key word.
      This leads me to believe that Alpha was the first to be found. This also leads me to think that Alpha or whoever is still alive is most likely remaining loyal.

One can expand upon this by using the Alpha Legion Contemptor Dreads from 30k (since they're legal in 40k) and playing the Alpharius Model from 30k using Guilliman's datasheet.

    Their newest book showing the “truth” about Alpha makes me believe he remained loyal.
    This is mainly due to how he was “allegedly” being raised by the emperor. Whilst Omagon was not and wouldn’t believe in the big Es cause.

Omegon should be the one to die to dorn and it’d be cool if alpharius was cypher

    Things make a bit more sense when you stop looking at the Alphalegion as a whole. Look at them as the same way you would look at the Nightlords, various bands of desperate individual renegades. Some are loyal playing a long con, some fell to chaos and its promises while others just fucked off into the galaxy.
    Also I believe Alpharius was the 1st Primarch found but since the legion required both of them, you can't count it as a whole. Just 0.5 of a Primarch found so no point in counting them or trying to round up when their whole purpose is supposed to be espionage.

    Dark Angels and Alpha Legion have a lot points of contrast, I've found. Besides being the first and the last, respectively, they also have contrasting cultures. The Dark Angels are paranoid as fuck, and the Alpha Legion are the ones who would make you paranoid if you knew their MO. Besides that, the Dark Angels (before the Lion's return, at least) had an ongoing thing about their loyalty being in question, while the Alpha Legion's betrayal may have been a lie this entire time. The two legions are also split between loyalist and traitor, the Dark Angels with their Fallen, Unforgiven, and now Risen subfactions, and the Alpha Legion with their Loyalist/Traitor split between their twin Primarchs' diverging motives.

    A ship full of 500 Ultramarines has been in the warp for weeks. In the mess hall one day, 499 of them all draw bolt pistols and all shoot each other dead. The 500th guy, left alive and confused, was the only actual Ultramarine. The rest were all pretending the whole time, so well in fact that none of them figured out everyone else was also alpha legion (not real lore but a good example of the meme)

      I've heard, *only heard*, from other people that their main goal is to stop mankind for completely collapsing. That if chaos wins or if the emperor got his wish, it would be bad for humanity as a whole. That's why they seem like they play for both sides.

      @SkitariusNoKD Před rokem

      @@rockchik409 I kind of see the alpha legion like snakes with two heads (bicephaly), in nature when a snake is born with 2 heads, they will likely die because the heads fight between them, often compiting for food, or wanting to go to different direction and since both head control the same body they end up don't go anywere.
      the Hydra is the perfect symbol for them lol

    The whole, "or that could be an Alpha Legion ploy" is really just the by-product of bad writing. It leaves the writers a way to retconn something or alter the meaning of something that has occured in the universe.
    Wanna right Alpharius back into the lore after being killed?....Alpha Legion.

    An underrated legion surely. In the games(and the "hunt for voldorius" novel), they're the punching bag and moustache-twirling villains. In novels (post-heresy notables are sons of the hydra, shroud of night and renegades harrowmaster), they are the force to be reckoned with, especially in latter (main character has been shown here, with dreads, demonic left arm and partial pale spear, think of him as alpha legion's answer to decimus from night lords trilogy).

    My favourite piece of Alpha Legion lore is one time when they took over a planet of psykers by gasing the ENTIRE PLANET which made the people have dreams of snakes falling from the sky, and because they're psykers, venomous snakes actually started raining down and killing the local populous.
