Legion cultures are interesting yes. It was very cool to see the Terran Legionairies and the Legionairies from their Primarchs respective home planets have a clash of cultures. Especially when it counted. I admit I dislike when I can see  recycled ideas between legion cultures (they never ever surrender ever). But there is some great potential there.

Regarding spliting Traitor Legion articles to pre and post HHeresy. I still disagree. It dosn't seem necessary to me. Think about it. They do seem to touch base with their capital planets (Iron Warriors, Death Guard [you are wrong about them, even nurgle dedicated renegades join that Legion still and they call themselves Death Guard first then Lords of Decay for example]) or Primarchs (World Eaters) once in a while, or are straight up still quite unified (Word Bearers). I would like more info on specific warbands but that doesn't mean they are not all NLords still for example. Those that do change their name then leave their Legions by their own acords and are autonomous but thats different. The warbands of the Black Legion are the Black Legion and their exploits belong in the BL page first then hopefully their own page.

I don't know if I'm making myself clear. The warband effect seams an apropreate result of a defeated army (loyalty to general now that we lost) and one mae up of criminal minded (at best) people who trust their close bretheren but don't want to risk being the pray of another likeminded person. Bad people are weary of other bad people. Unless.. they (the generals) can all call on a greater authority and have order among their ranks. Thats when you get Black Cusades or Blood Crusades. But its still the same army (Legion). Unless they abandon it deliberetlly.

Again I'm tired right now I donpt know if I'm just rambling..but I disagree... I like my Black Legion FAAAAT and HEAVY!

Finally! Sorry for the long post.

Interesting info about the Abaddon books. I think we can both agree that the time period right after the Heresy concerning the traitors is very undetailed and (for me) therefre very very interesting! Especially the slave wars and the birth of the BLegion. So I'll lookout for these. It's known that the EChildren started the slave wars but there was a serious battle between the Sons and WBearers at one point. I don't know if this battle has been retracted because I havent seen it in the new slave wars pege, but I want to see some Sons smashing some WB (IsstvanV quality smashing). For me there have been too many HH books with the Word Bearers instead of the LunaW/SonsH as the central rebels in them. It's the Horus Heresy not the Lorgar Lounge!!!! They did too well in the HH. Even Calth was a "just as planed" situation. They should have the new BLegion smashing the WB, who were obviuslly aiming for the head position among the Traitors after the Heresy, then they got Abaddon!! I am biasd yes but I think I am logical also.
