fenris has old tyranid creatures, not warp beasts, it is however hinted in several books, that the fenrisian wolves, or at least some breeds have been mutated humans. in "prospero burns" you have at least 1 human transforming into a wolf after a failed gene seed implantation.

and that such things also happened before russ' arrival.

the problem with the veterans is the following: he sent a very big number of fully battle ready veterans, aka his most experienced warrios, sharpest weapons. to train the neophytes, where those that were too old or too wounded would suffice. let me use the  raven guard as example, where they used  1 astartes for 10-30 neophytes (deliverance lost)  500 astartes would then train 5000-15000 neophytes at the same time, sorry but this is an attrition rate the Dark angels never reached, and even with neophytes coming on, they could have been back at the frontlines in years, but those veterans were left on caliban for decades, ignored by their primarch, ignored by their legion. exiled. alvie but as cleansed form the legion as those killed at istvaan or calth.

Lion was, prior to the battle of terra, deploying troops on a planet where the salamanders and death guard were fighting over a mechanicum facility. the death guard were represented by calas typhon, who by that time, was already a known traitor. and the lion did not attack typhon but let him go freely.

you think, do you have anyhting else than your opinion?
