Editing The War of The Beast (section)

==The Imperium at the time==
Believe it or not, during the years prior to the biggest [[WAAAGH]]! that has ever been, the Imperium was living in a [[Wat|time one might call peaceful]]. Yes, there were silly little wars here and there such as the [[Black Crusade#Abaddon's Black Crusades|first Black Crusade]], the first battle of [[Cadia]], the Battle of the Fang, multiple traitor [[Primarch]]s fucking over many worlds, and [[Daemon]] [[cultist|cults]] popping up everywhere, but if we ignore all of those 'minor' events/[[chaos]] invasions we're left with a few others which basically consisted of the Imperials wiping out some [[xenos]] races. The Astartes were ''dying out'' because the author forgot the other shit that happened (or perhaps merely in comparison to the nearly industrial level creation process used to create the preceding legions..); the Imperial Fists, for example, hadn't left [[Terra]] for centuries and it was said nearly none of its battle brothers had had real battle experience in any substantial terms. The Emperor's Herd had grown complacent.
