Topic: Alpha Legion

[Shade, Bankai King]

  Hello all. Well for awhile now I have been in love with the concept of the Apha Legion. I was planning on making a army of them, but then the new codex came out kinda crushed that dream. So what I am asking from you guys is to help me by giving me some info on them. Any links or the names of books that I should read would be helpful. I have read the article about them one this site already but want to know more.

Well best book I can think of is the next instalment of the Horus Heresy series, Legion by Dan Abnett.  It deals with the Alpha Legion and the Imperial army and should have some pre heresy info and some info on their fall to Chaos.  Out in March in the UK, April elsewhere

Whilst I hesitate to give out wikipedia links, this pretty much contains the contents of the Index Astartes article. Not all of the 'Biography of Alpharius' article on the front page is entirely canon stuff.
