Editing Khornate Knights (section)

==Context for the Rage==

Basically one story in the 5th Edition [[Grey Knight]] Codex, "The Bloodtide Returns", lists the Grey Knights as coming across a planet wherein a powerful Dark Age of Technology nanite weapon controlled by a bloodthirster resided - one so powerful that it was corrupting the populace by flying into their pores and driving them crazy. There was a convent of Sisters that were being slowly wiped out near the site whose faith was keeping them pure and untouched by the taint except for all the ones who were corrupted, and instead of asking for the Sisters' assistance the Grey Knights proceeded to slaughter them all and make wards from their blood, then go about banishing the daemon. [[What|'''All after the codex literally stating that their faith is strong enough to protect them from any kind of daemonic corruption, so they wouldn't have even needed those wards.''']]

Think about this, for just a minute. The Sisters' faith protected some of them from being corrupted. Yet, as has been shown before, there has been <s>a few</s> only one Sisters of Battle that willingly fell to Chaos. In come the Grey Knights, whose faith is so powerful it is quite literally their strongest weapon and their most potent protection. These Grey Knights' faith is not strong enough to withstand the NANITE WEAPONS of Chaos, while the Sisters' is? Does that make ANY sense at all? 

Even when the Sisters would be truly useful against Chaos, why the FUCK would the Grey Knights, a purely Imperial faction who keeps faith the highest measure of existence would downright TURN ON THEM AND MURDER Emperor's servants and pour their blood on themselves like some insane chaotic cult? Infighting due to conflicts of interest is possible, as seen in Dawn of War: Dark Crusade and Dawn of War: Soulstorm, yet this goes against all logical explanation.

This is a classic case of not just heresy, but of [[Extra Heresy|''extra'' heresy]]; canon to this point had explicitly detailed 3 things:

* That the Grey Knights greatly loathe Chaos and are completely immune to its corrupting influence. They wouldn't need wards made on the spot to withstand daemonic corruption, given that just their Aegis armour's own built-in wards would deflect any corrupting influence that would try to tempt them (assuming that it COULD tempt them at all).

* That no Grey Knight in the history of the chapter has ever fallen to the temptations of [[Chaos]] due to the massive amounts of spiritual and physical indoctrination and training they go through that would make the Space Marines' training and creation regimen look like the Guard's conscript training, along with their anti-daemon Aegis armours. In addition, in older fluff, the Grey Knights COULD fall to Chaos, in theory. However, in addition to their intense faith and rigorous physical and mental training, they closely regulate themselves. If a Battle-Brother's reaction to Chaos was anything less than [[Angry Marines|"NO FUCKING WAY!"]], they would have a force halberd to the face in record time.

* Only one sister has ever willingly fallen to Chaos.

And yet we have this - evidence of the darkest kind of heresy, if not outright [[Khorne]] worship. I mean, it's not like there's an entire book written by Ben Counter about a Grey Knight becoming a Champion of Khorne or anything that hasn't been retconned.  Thankfully sister paint has been retconned, but this was still canon for a time, a sign of how bad some things were under [[Matt Ward|an incompetent writer who should've never been allowed a pen]].


Fucking [[Matt Ward]]. Next thing you know, [[Kharn]] will be working for the Tau or something. Yeah about that...in the novelization of [[Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior]], it was revealed that the protagonist was actually being aided by [[Khorne]]...*nervous laugh*

And the Sisters of Battle get mutilated a lot whenever Ward comes near them.
