History 历史
The Great Crusade 大远征
Founding 建军
The XIXth Legion was created from the genetic material of their Primarch, Corvus Corax and used by the Emperor as his hidden hand in its early years during the Unification Wars on Terra.The original recruits of the Legion were firstborn sons drawn from tribes of savage yet technologically adept Xeric warriors of the Asiatic Dustfields, which regularly battled with the much larger Yndonesic Bloc.
第十九军团是由他们的原体科沃斯·科拉克斯的遗传物质创建的,在泰拉统一战争的早期,该军团被帝皇用作他的隐蔽之手。军团最初的新兵是来自亚洲尘域野蛮但技术娴熟的薛里克战士部落的长子,他们经常与更大的印度尼西集团作战。

Pre-Corax XIXth Legionnaire 科拉克斯回归前十九军团士兵
In its earliest days, the XIXth Legion was used for infiltration, reconnaissance, and target identification operations. The Legion was covertly used to quickly annihilate any faction which refused to submit to the new Imperium, striking from the shadows without warning. The XIXth used terror tactics similar to the Night Lords. One of the earliest known campaigns by the Legion was the conquest of the central Asiatic region, which was ruled by a tyrant known as Kalagann of Ursh. They won many battle honors on Terra, and later took part in the expansion of the Imperium into the rest of the Sol System, liberating Jupiter's moon of Lysithea from xenos. The battle on Lysithea proved costly for the Legion and veterans of the battle wore Jovian runes in its commemoration for many years after.
在早期,第19军团被用于渗透、侦察和目标识别行动。军团被秘密地用来迅速消灭任何拒绝屈服于新帝国的派系,在没有任何警告的情况下从阴影中出击。十九军团使用了类似于午夜领主的恐怖战术。军团最早的已知战役之一是征服中亚地区,该地区由一位被称为乌尔什的卡拉甘的暴君统治。他们在泰拉上赢得了许多战斗荣誉,后来参与了帝国向太阳系其他部分的扩张,将木星的卫星木卫十从异教徒手中解放出来。事实证明,木卫十之战对军团来说代价高昂,战斗的老兵在此后的许多年里都佩戴着木星符文进行纪念。
In the early days of the Great Crusade, the Legion found itself in the shadow of Horus and his Luna Wolves. While Horus valued the XIXth greatly, the Legions forces were largely serving as support troops for the Wolves.
在大远征的早期,军团发现自己处于荷鲁斯和他的影月苍狼的阴影之下。虽然荷鲁斯非常重视十九军团,但军团部队主要是作为野狼的支援部队。
The Legion's Primarch Corax was not reunited with the Legion for many decades. When the Emperor discovered Corax on Deliverance, he had just liberated the moon from Kiavahr Forge-Guilds by using nuclear weapons. The first meeting between Corax and the Emperor is shrouded in mystery, as the two spent a day and a night in private discussion, with no records kept about the conversation's contents. At dawn the next day, though, Corax agreed to take command of the Legion on the condition that Kiavahr be conquered and brought into the Imperial fold.
军团的原体科拉克斯几十年来一直没有与军团重聚。当帝皇在救赎星发现科拉克斯时,他刚刚用核武器将卫星从基亚瓦尔铸造行会解放出来。科拉克斯和帝皇的第一次会面笼罩在神秘之中,因为两人花了一天一夜的时间进行私人讨论,没有关于对话内容的记录。然而,第二天黎明时分,科拉克斯同意指挥军团,条件是征服基亚瓦尔并将其纳入帝国版图。
The Great Crusade was already a century old by the time Corax took command of his Legion, but he quickly imposed the style of war he had learned on Deliverance on his new troops. Stealth, swiftness, and guile were impressed on a Legion already renowned for its reconnaissance and rapid-strike capability. In particular, the old ways of the Xeric tribes were purged. Corax was also disheartened by how his Legion had been used as a repression, higher counter-insurgency, and occupation force, not unlike what he had fought against on Deliverance. As such, he purged or banished the Legion of its old Terran commanders, such as Lord Arkhas Fal. Corax also used factories on Kiavahr to commission several vehicles unique to his forces, most notably the Shadowhawk, a stealth variant of the Thunderhawk as well as the Whispercutter.
当科拉克斯指挥他的军团时,大远征已经有一个世纪的历史了,但他很快将他在拯救星学到的战争风格强加给了他的新部队。隐形、敏捷和狡猾给一个以侦察和快速打击能力而闻名的军团留下了深刻的印象。特别是,薛里克部落的旧方式被清除了。科拉克斯还对他的军团如何被用作镇压、更高级别的反叛乱和占领军感到沮丧,这与他在拯救星中所反对的不同。因此,他清除或驱逐了军团中的旧泰拉指挥官,如阿卡斯·法尔领主。科拉克斯还利用基亚瓦尔的工厂调试了几辆他部队独有的载具,最著名的是暗影鹰,一种雷鹰的隐形变体,以及低语切割者。
Doctrine and Record 学说与记录
Before the discovery of Corax, the Raven Guard utilized terror tactics similar to the Night Lords. However, when their Primarch was discovered, he was disgusted with these methods and introduced changes. Following the discovery of Corax the Raven Guard, based upon his teachings, became masters of sabotage, assassination, and other covert operations. Planets that were thought impossible to take fell quickly as the Raven Guard applied precise military pressure to its vulnerable sectors. Such was the Legion's reputation that Warmaster Horus frequently requested their assistance to assure victory, though there was little admiration between the two; unconfirmed reports include the two sides nearly coming to blows on one occasion. In addition, Corax displayed a consistent ill-favour and mistrust towards veteran warriors of his Legion born of Terra, as opposed to those native to Deliverance.
在发现科拉克斯之前,暗鸦守卫使用了类似于午夜领主的恐怖战术。然而,当他们的原体回归时,他对这些方法感到厌恶,并引入了变化。在发现科拉克斯之后,暗鸦守卫根据他的教导,成为了破坏、暗杀和其他秘密行动的大师。由于暗鸦守卫对其脆弱区域施加了精确的军事压力,被认为不可能占领的行星迅速陷落。军团的声誉如此之高,以至于战帅荷鲁斯经常请求他们的帮助以确保胜利,尽管他们之间几乎没有什么钦佩之情;未经证实的报道称,双方一度差点发生冲突。此外,科拉克斯对出生于泰拉的老兵表现出一贯的恶意和不信任,而不是那些出生于拯救星的老兵。

Tensions between the two boiled after during the Battle of Gate Forty-Two, where Horus had the Raven Guard launch a bloody frontal assault on enemy defenses that decimated the Legion's numbers despite Corax's warnings that the plan was reckless beforehand. After the battle, the Raven Guard was reduced to 80,000 Astartes. Corax removed his forces from Horus' command, bitterly swearing to never serve alongside the Warmaster again. He also began to send his Terran-born forces into forgotten Crusades on the galactic fringes, ensuring in his eyes that the Raven Guard remain "pure".
在42号门之战中,两人之间的紧张关系加剧,荷鲁斯让暗鸦守卫对敌人的防御发动了血腥的正面进攻,尽管科拉克斯事先警告说该计划是鲁莽的,但还是摧毁了军团的成员。战斗结束后,暗鸦守卫减少到80000阿斯塔特。科拉克斯将他的部队从荷鲁斯的指挥下撤离,痛苦地发誓再也不与战帅并肩作战。他还开始派遣他在泰拉出生的部队参加银河系边缘被遗忘的远征,在他眼中确保暗鸦守卫保持“纯洁”。

The Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱
The Raven Guard legion was one of the smallest legions during the Great Crusade, numbering 80,000 Astartes as well as an Imperial Army Regiment known as the Therion Cohort attached to the legion's expeditionary force. As a legion they were a fierce enemy for anyone who opposed the Imperium of Man, using time honoured tactics of guerrilla warfare which Corax himself had learnt during the Revolution he himself had commanded to free his people from the merciless slavery forced upon them by the Tech Guilds of Kiavahr. Extremely efficient and trained, the Raven Guard would engage in acts of mass sabotage along with infiltration, blink-of-an-eye Strikes, and expert covert operations, all of which they had perfected into what would look like ease to any other warrior.
暗鸦守卫军团是大远征期间规模最小的军团之一,有80000名阿斯塔特,还有一个被称为圣兽大队的帝国陆军兵团,隶属于该军团的远征部队。作为一个军团,对于任何反对人类帝国的人来说,他们都是一个死敌,他们使用历史悠久的游击战战术,这是科拉克斯自己在革命期间学到的,他亲自指挥革命,将人民从基亚瓦尔技术行会强加于他们的无情奴隶制中解放出来。暗鸦守卫效率极高,训练有素,他们会进行大规模破坏行动,以及渗透、转瞬攻击和专业秘密行动,所有这些行动他们都已经完善到任何其他战士都能轻松应对的程度。

Corax leads the Raven Guard against the Dark Mechanicus during the Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱期间科拉克斯领导暗鸦守卫对抗黑暗机械教
The Raven Guard was one of seven legions to be sent to the Istvaan system (Others present were the Iron Hands, Salamanders, Alpha Legion, Iron Warriors, Night Lords and Word Bearers) to quell a rebellion lead by the former Warmaster, Horus — Primarch of the Sons of Horus Legion (Formerly the Luna Wolves). Horus and his other three traitor primarchs (Fulgrim, Angron and Mortarion) had entrenched themselves on the planet of Istvaan V, and lay in wait for the Loyalist forces to land and engage. The fighting once joined was fierce and hot-blooded, brother versus brother, and no quarter was given on either side. Mid way into the fighting, Horus and his allies retreated back into their fortifications for no reason that could be grasped by the loyalist factions. The Raven Guard were in the thick of the fighting from the start, though out of their element due to the lack of tactical planning and the close-up-and-personal combat spreading like wildfire across the plains of Istvaan V. They fought both with as much honour and as much skill as any other legion would in the circumstances. When the traitors made a surprise withdrawal back to their fortifications, the Raven Guard used this cease in the fighting to regroup and re-arm.
暗鸦守卫是被派往伊斯塔万星系的七个军团之一(其他出席的军团包括钢铁之手、火蜥蜴、阿尔法军团、钢铁勇士、午夜领主和怀言者),以平息由前战帅、荷鲁斯之子军团(前身为影月苍狼)的原体荷鲁斯领导的叛乱。荷鲁斯和他的其他三位叛徒原体(福格瑞姆、安格隆和莫塔里安)已经在伊斯塔万五号星球上站稳了脚跟,埋伏在那里等待忠诚派部队登陆并交战。一旦加入,战斗就变得激烈而热血沸腾,兄弟对兄弟,双方都没有让步。在战斗进行到一半时,荷鲁斯和他的盟友无缘无故地撤退到他们的防御工事中,而忠诚派则无法掌握。暗鸦守卫从一开始就处于战斗的最激烈阶段,但由于缺乏战术规划,近战和决斗像野火般蔓延到伊斯塔万五号的平原。他们与任何其他军团在这种情况下一样,以同样的荣誉和技巧进行战斗。当叛徒出其不意地撤退回防御工事时,暗鸦守卫利用这一停止战斗的机会重新集结并重新武装。
However, when they neared the "loyalist" defences (which were tenfold reinforced by the expert siege engineers of the Iron Warriors legion under their Primarch Perturabo's direction, they were fired upon by the very guns meant to protect them. Hundreds were gunned down in the first few minutes of the betrayal before they even realised that there were traitors in their midst. Four of the seven loyalist legions sent to Istvaan V had thrown off the colours and pretenses of the Imperium, and set their betrayal into motion.The Iron Warriors, Night Lords, Alpha Legion, and Word Bearers turned on their brethren in a bloody thunderstorm of bolters and blades, decimating their numbers in a multitude of seemingly never ending skirmishes and drudging battles for ground that cost lives for every metre gained or lost. Corax and his legion were reduced from their mighty 80,000 warriors to a meager 3,000 battle hardened veterans.
然而,当他们接近“忠诚者”的防御工事时(在他们的原体佩图拉博的指挥下,钢铁勇士军团的专业攻城工程师对防御工事进行了十倍的强化),他们遭到了旨在保护他们的枪支的袭击。在背叛的前几分钟,数百人被枪杀,他们甚至还没有意识到他们中间有叛徒。派往伊斯塔万五号的七个忠诚派军团中有四个已经摆脱了帝国的色彩和伪装,并开始了他们的背叛。钢铁勇士、午夜领主、阿尔法军团和怀言者在一场血腥的枪林弹雨中向他们的兄弟开火,他们的人被大量看似永无止境的人摧毁。小规模冲突和艰难的地面战斗,每前进或后退一米都会造成生命损失。科拉克斯和他的军团从强大的8万名战士减少到只有3000名久经沙场的老兵。
Corax was by now a brooding vengeful demigod, wielding a whip in place of his normal customary left set of talons which were lost in a rage fueled duel with the traitorous primarch Lorgar, which would have ended in Lorgar's death had Konrad Curze, Primarch of the Night Lords (also known as the Night Haunter) not intervened and shattered it with a swipe of his own claws. Respite came in the form of a single battle barge the Avenger, captained by Commander Branne Nev, a captain originally stationed on Deliverance as a garrison commander, with him came the battered remains of the Therion Cohort normally serving with the legion under Praefactor Marcus Valerius who ironically brought Isstvan V into compliance with Corax the first time. Unbeknownst to both sides, Corax only narrowly escaped death at the hands of Angron and his World Eaters thanks to the machinations of the Alpha Legion, whose own Primarch Alpharius had greater plans regarding the Raven Guard.
科拉克斯现在是一个沉思的复仇半神,挥舞着鞭子代替了他在与叛徒原体珞珈的愤怒决斗中失去的通常习惯的左爪,如果午夜领主(也称为午夜猎手)的原图康拉德·科兹没有介入并用自己的爪拍打它,这场决斗本会在珞珈的死亡中结束。喘息以一艘战斗驳船复仇者号的形式出现,由指挥官布兰·涅夫担任队长,他最初是作为驻军指挥官驻扎在拯救星的连长,与他一起来的是通常在军团服役的兵团长马库斯·瓦莱里乌斯领导下的的圣兽大队的重创残余,讽刺的是,他第一次让伊斯塔万五号遵从了科拉克斯。双方都不知道,由于阿尔法军团的阴谋诡计,科拉克斯勉强逃脱了安格隆和他的吞世者的死亡,阿尔法军团的原体阿尔法瑞斯对暗鸦守卫有更大的计划。
Upon escaping the tailing forces of World Eater's picket ships, Avenger broke real-space into the warp, and headed for Terra. Upon arriving Corax headed for the Imperial Palace, which was being fortified by Rogal Dorn and his Imperial Fists in preparation for the coming Siege, upon which after much argument with Dorn and Malcador the Imperial Regent, The Emperor himself boomed in a psychic voice for the arguing to cease and pulled Corax into a vision of extreme light, and showed him the secrets he had been asking for - the gene forging tech used to create the Primarchs by the Emperor himself. After navigating the treacherous and dangerous contraption which was the ever shape-shifting maze on Luna, by using his advanced logic, and the skill of his sons to out-think its logic engine and freeze it in place, he retrieved the gene tech and returned to Deliverance under the watchful eye of the Adeptus Custodes (who were charged by Malcador to keep an eye on its safety).
在逃离了吞世者哨兵的尾随部队后,复仇者号冲破了亚空间,驶向泰拉。抵达后,科拉克斯前往皇宫,皇宫正由罗格·多恩和他的帝国之拳加固,为即将到来的围攻做准备,在与多恩和帝国摄政马卡多进行了多次争论后,帝皇本人用一种灵能传音发出低沉的声音,要求停止争论,并将科拉克斯拉到一个极度光亮的视野中,并向他展示了他一直要求的秘密 — 帝皇用来创造原体的基因编辑技术。在月球上不断变形的迷宫中,他利用自己先进的逻辑和子嗣们超越逻辑引擎并将其冻结在适当位置的技能,驾驭了这个奸诈而危险的装置后,他取回了基因技术,并在禁军的监视下返回了拯救星(马卡多要求他们注意其安全)。
At first the Astartes created by the gene tech were a marvel, a splice of primarch and Astartes, but not in an imbalanced degree so as to cause malfunction, a perfect meld. These new warriors were faster, stronger, and more intelligent than any of the older warriors of the Legion, and within a few weeks more aspirants had been successfully implanted with stable gene-seed than ever before (the new gene seed also meant that warriors matured into their new forms rapidly compared to standard Astartes). The new warriors would be placed under the command of Captain Branne Nev under the moniker "Raptors", and would be used against a Word Bearer fortress as their first deployment, which would see them successfully slaughter veteran Word Bearers with the ease of much older warriors. Raptors would take injuries that would have killed even an Astartes, and still remain fighting due to their enhanced bodies. Word of this reached the ears of Omegon, twin primarch of the Alpha Legion, whom had been laying dormant on Kiavahr below stirring up a rebellion amongst the tech guilds, and he sprung into action.
第一个基因技术创造的阿斯塔特是一个奇迹,是原体和阿斯塔特的拼接,但并没有达到不平衡的程度,从而导致故障,这是一个完美的融合。这些新战士比军团中任何一位年长的战士都更快、更强壮、更聪明,在几周内,比以往任何时候都有更多的有志者成功植入了稳定的基因种子(新的基因种子也意味着与标准的阿斯塔特相比,战士们很快就会成长成新的形态)。新的战士将以“猛禽”的名义被置于布兰·涅夫连长的指挥之下,并将作为他们的第一次部署,用来对抗一个怀言者堡垒,这将使他们能够像年长的战士一样轻松地成功屠杀资深的怀言者。猛禽的伤病甚至会杀死阿斯塔特,但由于身体的增强,他们仍然会继续战斗。这件事传到了阿尔法军团的双胞胎首领欧米伽的耳朵里,他一直在基亚瓦尔的下面蛰伏,在技术行会中煽动叛乱,于是他迅速采取了行动。
The rebellion and even the Alpha Legionnaires supporting it were a distraction, while the Raven Guard were caught off guard, Omegon and several Alpha Legion operatives managed to covertly spike the gene tech with a daemon blood poison (while managing to keep the pure technology for themselves) using the Raven Guard gene-seed to produce deformed monsters. The battle finally began as the first Raven Guard recruits to receive the secretly spiked gene seed were implanted, and by the time it raged into the gene labs of Ravendelve, only to be met by deformed warriors created by the spiked gene seed's effects. While deformed, these astartes still fought with otherworldly strength, overpowering even the Alpha Legion Astartes. By the time the battle was over, Agents had been found amidst the legion, explaining how news reached the traitors about the gene tech, and thus the loss of such a boon to the crippled legion, gene screening was to be implemented to find and destroy the agents with the stolen faces of Raven Guard Legionnaires.
叛乱,甚至是支持它的阿尔法军团都是分散的,而暗鸦守卫措手不及,欧米伽和几名阿尔法军团特工设法使用暗鸦守卫基因种子秘密地用一种恶魔血毒素刺入基因技术(同时设法为自己保留纯粹技术),以制造畸形怪物。这场战斗终于开始了,因为第一批接受秘密刺入基因种子的暗鸦守卫新兵被植入体内,当它在鸦巢的基因实验室肆虐时,只会遇到刺入基因的效果所造成的畸形战士。虽然变形了,但这些阿斯塔特仍然以超凡脱俗的力量战斗,甚至击败了阿尔法军团阿斯塔特。战斗结束时,在军团中发现了特工,这解释了基因技术的消息是如何传到叛徒手中的,因此残废的军团失去了这样的福音,基因筛查将被实施,以找到并摧毁那些有着暗鸦守卫军团被盗面孔的特工。
Corax nevertheless led the Raven Guard in full strength (~4000 Astartes) and his allies (over 500,000 Therion Cohort, 100-150 Imperial Fists, ~20 Custodes against The Perfect Fortress, an Emperors Children stronghold. Planned to be conducted with his legion rebuild to be at least 10.000 Astartes strong, the Fortress was taken by luring the Traitor forces out with an failed assault by the Therion Cohort. While Raven Guard losses were small, the Traitor force was totally destroyed. The Perfect Fortress was on a important strategic planet for the whole sector, but Corax withdrew his legion to strike the next Traitor force, leaving the garrison to the Therion Cohort, and the expected Imperial Army and Titan Legion Reinforcements. Corax again led the Raven Guard in full strength against traitor forces in the Battle of Yarant, rescuing the Space Wolves. After the battle, Corax expressed his intent to continue to resist Horus from the shadows.
尽管如此,科拉克斯还是率领着全副武装的暗鸦守卫(约4000名阿斯塔特)和他的盟友(超过500000名圣兽大队,100-150名帝国之拳,约20名禁军,对抗帝皇之子要塞完美堡垒。计划重建至少10000名阿斯塔特的军团,通过圣兽大队的失败攻击引诱叛徒部队出来,占领了堡垒。虽然暗鸦守卫损失很小,但叛徒部队被完全摧毁。完美堡垒位于整个地区的一个重要战略星球上,但科拉克斯撤回了他的军团,打击下一支叛徒部队,将驻军留给圣兽大队和预期的帝国军队。以及泰坦军团增援部队。在雅兰特之战中,科拉克斯再次率领暗鸦守卫全力对抗叛徒势力,拯救了太空野狼。战斗结束后,科拉克斯表示他打算继续从阴影中抵抗荷鲁斯。
Lion El'Jonson and his Dark Angels eventually rendezvoused with the Raven Guard and Space Wolves on Deliverance and offered them a place in his crusade of vengeance against the Traitors. While the Wolves wholly committed themselves, Corax was more cautious and only committed a small expeditionary force to scout ahead and eliminate key targets in order to spare entire worlds from The Lion's destruction. This force also engaged in regular war, taking part in the Siege of Barbarus against the Death Guard.
莱昂·艾尔庄森和他的黑暗天使最终在救赎星与暗鸦守卫和太空野狼会合,并在他对叛徒的复仇行动中为他们提供了一席之地。虽然野狼全身心投入,但科拉克斯更加谨慎,只派出了一支小型远征军来侦察前方并消灭关键目标,以使整个世界免受莱昂的毁灭。这支部队还参加了常规战争,参加了针对死亡守卫的巴巴鲁斯围城。
Without the gene tech the Raven Guard Legion remained a small legion, though their continued work with small cells of warriors allowed them to remain no less of a fighting force, though fewer in number then before. Tales of the Space Wolves report the use of Astartes more beasts than man. The Space Wolves never reported this to any imperial authorities, most likely because they shared a sympathy with the Raven Guard because of their own similar flaw.
如果没有基因技术,暗鸦守卫军团仍然是一个小军团,尽管他们继续与小规模的战士合作,使他们仍然是一支战斗力量,尽管人数比以前少了。太空野狼的故事叙述称,阿斯塔特使用的野兽比人类多。太空野狼从未向任何帝国当局报告过这一点,很可能是因为他们与暗鸦守卫有着相似的缺陷,因此他们也同情暗鸦守卫。
Meanwhile, scattered Raven Guard survivors of Isstvan V managed to join with fellow Salamanders and Iron Hands aboard the Sisypheum, beginning a campaign of vengeance against those who had betrayed them.
与此同时,伊斯塔万五号上分散的暗鸦守卫幸存者设法与西西弗姆号上的火蜥蜴和钢铁之手同伴会合,开始了一场针对背叛他们的人的复仇行动。

When Roboute Guilliman announced his "Codex Astartes" which would split the legions into organised chapters, Corax was circumstantially forced to adapt to the new rules. He retained his legions overall structure, but in smaller chapters of 1,000 Astartes.
当罗伯特·基里曼宣布他的阿斯塔特圣典将军团分成有组织的战团时,科拉克斯被迫适应新规则。他保留了他的军团的整体结构,但在1000个阿斯塔特的较小战团中。
The Raven Guard chapter birthed in the Second Founding from the Raven Guard legion remained a successful fighting force, even with diminished numbers (1,000 Astartes from the 3,000 survivors of the Drop Site Massacre). The hunt for Kernax Voldorius alongside the White Scars, 4th Company's deployment of several Raven Guard warriors to aid the Ultramarines in their capture of Adaric Vaanes, and the defence of Ultramar, and many other campaigns have been successfully won by these masters of shadow.
在二次建军时从暗鸦守卫军团中诞生的暗鸦守卫战团仍然是一支成功的战斗力量,尽管人数有所减少(3000名登陆点大屠杀幸存者中有1000名阿斯塔特)。这些暗影大师成功地赢得了白色伤疤对克纳克斯·沃尔多里乌斯的狩猎、第四连部署了几名暗鸦守卫战士来帮助极限战士捕获阿达里克·瓦内斯、保卫奥特拉玛以及许多其他战役。

Homeworld 家园世界
The Raven Guard homeworld is Deliverance, a moon which their Fortress Monastery "Raven Spire" is built on. Deliverance was once known as Lycaeus, where 10,000 years previous to current events, Corvus Corax (soon to be Primarch of the Raven Guard Legion) lead a revolution to free his fellow slaves, and eventually the whole moon from the Slavery enforced on them by the Tech Guilds of the planet below, Kiavahr. Kiavahr was converted into a forge world by the Adeptus Mechanicus upon the Emperor's arrival, due to Corax's wishes that the Tech Guilds no longer held sway, this meant that the Legion also received a vital supply line for materials.
暗鸦守卫的家园世界是拯救星,这是他们的堡垒修道院渡鸦尖塔所在的卫星。拯救星曾被称为吕凯乌斯,在当前事件发生前10000年,科沃斯·科拉克斯(即将成为暗鸦守卫军团的原体)领导了一场革命,解放了他的奴隶同胞,并最终使整个卫星摆脱了基亚瓦尔星球下面的技术行会对他们实施的奴隶制。帝皇抵达后,由于科拉克斯希望技术行会不再占据主导地位,基亚瓦尔被机械神教改造成了铸造世界,这意味着军团也获得了重要的物资供应线。
The Raven Guard's chapter planet and base of operations has the production capacity of a small forge world, ensuring that the Chapter rarely lacks for the material to prosecute its campaigns.
暗鸦守卫的战团行星和行动基地具有小型铸造世界的生产能力,确保战团很少缺乏开展战役的物资。
Before and then for a time alongside the Legion homeworld of Deliverance, the Raven Guard held dominion over the Central Asiatic Dustfields of Terra. However, the Raven Guard would eventually abandon this domain, and renounced their tithe rights over the region in 998.M30.
在此之前,暗鸦守卫曾一度与军团的拯救星家园世界并肩作战,统治着尘土飞扬的泰拉中亚。然而,暗鸦守卫最终放弃了这一领地,并于998.M30年放弃了对该地区的什一税权利。
Gene-seed 基因种子
The degeneration of the Raven Guard gene-seed means several of the unique organs of the Space Marines no longer work properly or no longer grow. Raven Guard do not have the Mucranoid or Betcher's Gland. The Melanchromic Organ has a unique mutation that causes the skin of the Space Marine to grow paler. Eventually each Marine's skin becomes pure white while their hair and eyes darken, becoming black as coal. The main issues could have come from Corax's experimentation with the Raven Guard Gene-Seed to try and create stronger and faster-maturing astartes (although the Alpha Legion is primarily to blame for causing his project's failure); it is never explicitly stated what the actual cause is.
暗鸦守卫基因种子的退化意味着星际战士的几个独特器官不再正常工作或不再生长。暗鸦守卫没有强化汗腺或贝彻腐蚀唾液腺。黑色素器官有一种独特的突变,导致星际战士的皮肤变得更苍白。最终,每个星际战士的皮肤都变成了纯白色,而他们的头发和眼睛却变黑了,变得像煤一样黑。主要问题可能来自科拉克斯对暗鸦守卫基因种子的实验,试图创造更强壮、更成熟的阿斯塔特(尽管阿尔法军团是导致其项目失败的主要原因);他从未明确说明实际原因是什么。

warrior of the Raven Guard without his helmet 不带头盔的暗鸦守卫战士
In M32, a sudden degeneration afflicted the Raven Guard's gene-seed, causing organs to fail and implants to be rejected. From this time onward, the Chapter was forced to rely on gene-seed stocks from Terra, a factor that slowed the Chapter’s recruitment rates significantly but did not curtail their willingness for battle.
在M32,暗鸦守卫的基因种子突然退化,导致器官衰竭和植入物被排斥。从那时起,战团被迫依赖泰拉的基因种子库,这一因素大大减缓了战团的招募速度,但并没有削弱他们的战斗意愿。
The Sable Brand 黑色烙印
Since the earliest days of the Raven Guard, some of their number have been prone to a battle madness known as the Sable Brand. This consists of cold-blooded determination to fight on with no regard for self-preservation coupled with an inability to separate the whispers of the dead from the words of the living. Thought to be an original flaw in Corax's gene-seed that he himself may have suffered, it is marked by one's eyes becoming completely black. Though its effects are not permanent, it is often ever-present amongst those who suffer from it. During the Great Crusade, Corax organized those afflicted into units of Shadow Killers. However, after the Legion's near extinction on Isstvan V, the Primarch could no longer waste troops like this.
自暗鸦守卫成立之初,他们中的一些人就容易陷入一种被称为黑色烙印的疯狂战斗。这包括冷血的决心,不考虑自我保护,再加上无法将死者的低语与生者的言语分开。这被认为是科拉克斯基因种子中的一个原始缺陷,他自己也可能遭受过,其特征是一个人的眼睛完全变黑了。虽然它的影响不是永久性的,但它经常出现在那些遭受它的人身上。在大远征期间,科拉克斯将那些受折磨的人组织成暗影杀手部队。然而,在军团在伊斯塔万五号几乎毁灭后,原体再也不能像这样浪费军队了。
After Isstvan V, Corax labored with various methods to control the Sable Brand. He developed the Trifold Path of Shadow as a result in an attempt to control the outbreaks of madness. The doctrine has indeed led to fewer battle-brothers becoming afflicted with the Sable Brand. However, should the afflicted not be slain in battle, they are eventually incarcerated in the Ravenspire and used in experimentation by the Chapter's apothecaries. This attempt to cure their gene-seed is carried out in total secrecy.
在伊斯塔万五号之后,科拉克斯用各种方法控制黑色烙印。他发展了三重阴影之路,试图控制疯狂的爆发。这一学说确实导致更少的战斗兄弟患上黑色烙印。然而,如果受折磨的人没有在战斗中被杀死,他们最终会被关进渡鸦尖塔的监狱,并被战团的药剂师用于实验。这种治愈他们基因种子的尝试是在完全保密的情况下进行的。
Tactics 战术
The Raven Guard are known for hitting weak points in enemy defenses hard and they perform lightning strikes upon locations of tactical importance to cripple their enemy. The Raven Guard disdain the notion of recklessly charging into enemy ranks. This differentiates their tactics from those of the Blood Angels. The Raven Guard rely heavily on their Scouts for pinpointing enemy positions and to scout for good drop sites. In recent years, this preference for stealth, disruption, and assassination missions has seen them heavily use Vanguard Space Marine formations.
暗鸦守卫以猛烈打击敌人防御中的弱点而闻名,他们对战术上重要的地点进行闪电打击,以削弱敌人。暗鸦守卫不屑于鲁莽地冲进敌人队伍的想法。这使他们的战术与圣血天使的战术不同。暗鸦守卫在很大程度上依赖他们的侦察兵来精确定位敌人的位置,并侦察良好的投放地点。近年来,这种对隐形、破坏和暗杀任务的偏好使他们大量使用先锋星际战士编队。

Raven Guard 暗鸦守卫
Because of their hit and run tactics and sowing confusion in enemy ranks, the Raven Guard also make extensive use of Assault Squads as well as any other formation that uses Jump Packs. The Tactical Squads of the Raven Guard are often deployed via Thunderhawks or Drop Pods. The favorite weapons of the Raven Guard Commanders are the Lightning Claws and it is a common sight that their command squads also come equipped with these weapons in addition to their Jump Packs.
由于他们的跑打战术和在敌人队伍中制造混乱,暗鸦守卫还广泛使用突击小队以及使用跳跃背包的任何其他编队。暗鸦守卫的战术小队通常通过雷鹰或空投舱部署。暗鸦守卫指挥官最喜欢的武器是闪电爪,他们的指挥组除了跳跃背包外,还配备了这些武器,这是一个常见的景象。
Raven Guard Captains are fiercely independent, and it's incredibly rare for the chapter to fight as a whole. Individual companies are completely autonomous and are quick to lend their aid to Imperial commanders across the galaxy, with or without the sanction of their Chapter Master. Such behaviour has led to some to question the Raven Guard's soundness, but most recognise that such fluidity of command proves the presence of formidable discipline, not its absence.
暗鸦守卫的连长非常独立,很少有整支队伍参与战斗。各个连队是完全自主的,无论是否得到其战团的批准,都会迅速向银河系各地的帝国指挥官提供援助。这种行为导致一些人质疑暗鸦守卫的健全性,但大多数人认识到,这种指挥的流动性证明了强大的纪律的存在,而不是它的缺失。
Core to Corax’s teachings was the Trifold Path of Shadow, often rendered in pictorial form as a short-bladed trident, or a triple-bladed lightning claw. The first path of shadow is Ambush, the second Stealth, and the third Vigilance. Mastering one Path, he taught, brought the possibility of victory; mastery of two rendered triumph likely, and accomplishment in all three made the foe’s defeat all but inevitable. From the very first, the Chapter’s Battle Companies were founded around this Trifold Path. Companies 3 through 5 each specialised in one branch, and a battle-brother’s promotion to the 2nd came only when true mastery was attained. Such promotion is far from guaranteed. Even amongst Corax’s sons, there are few who can replicate his skill so completely, and many battle-brothers live out a life of war in the same Battle Company, peerless in their own path, but never truly able to grasp the fathomless depths of the others.
科拉克斯教义的核心是阴影的三重路径,通常以图形形式呈现为短刃三叉戟或三刃闪电爪。阴影的第一条路径是伏击,第二条是隐形,第三条是警戒。他教导说,掌握一条道路带来了胜利的可能性;掌握了两个使胜利成为可能,而在所有三个方面的成就使敌人的失败几乎不可避免。从一开始,战团的战斗连就围绕这条三重路径成立。第三至第五连队各专注于一个分支,只有当真正掌握了技能时,一名战斗兄弟才能晋升到第二连。这样的晋升远非板上钉钉。即使在科拉克斯的子嗣中,也很少有人能如此完全地复制他的技能,许多战斗兄弟在同一个战斗连队中度过了战争生活,在自己的道路上无与伦比,但从未真正掌握其他人的深不可测的深度。
Due to their specialised combat style, the Raven Guard makes less use of heavier vehicles and tanks (such as the Land Raider and Predator) than most chapters. However they conversely make heavy use of Land Speeders and gunships, and due to their extreme tactical autonomy and genetic instability nearly every deployment with see an Apothecary of some sort of included. As a result, the Raven Guard maintains more Apothecaries and Helix Adepts then most chapters.
由于其特殊的作战风格,暗鸦守卫比大多数部队更少使用重型载具和坦克(如兰德掠袭者和掠食者)。然而,他们反过来大量使用兰德速攻艇和炮艇,由于其极端的战术自主性和遗传不稳定性,几乎每次部署都包括某种药剂师。因此,暗鸦守卫维持的药剂师和先锋药剂师比大多数战团都多。
Shadowmasters 暗影大师
The Shadowmasters or Mor Deythan were a unit of Raven Guard during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy. They were ordinary battle-brothers who had their primarch's ability to Shadow-walk. It was a quirk of the gene-seed in a few Deliverancian born Raven Guard that had more than just the standard gene code. One unique trait about the Shadowmasters is that they were completely unknown to their own legion. The marines were selected for testing "Thermal Technology" which was considered "highly temperamental". Corax and select apothecaries were the only marines in the legion that knew of the group at the time of the Horus Heresy. The Mor Deythan acted as an elite stealth team and saboteurs and communicated through Stalk-Argot while working in concert with the rest of the legion. The Shadowmasters performed flanking manoeuvres and sabotaged columns of rogue Skitarii on Constanix II.
暗影大师或摩尔戴斯是大远征和荷鲁斯叛乱期间暗鸦守卫的一个单位。他们是普通的战斗兄弟,拥有原体的暗影行走能力。这是少数出生于拯救星的暗鸦守卫的基因种子的奇事,它们不仅仅具有标准的基因密码。暗影大师的一个独特之处是,他们自己的军团完全不知道他们。战士被选中测试“热能技术”,该技术被认为“喜怒不定”。科拉克斯和受选的药剂师是荷鲁斯叛乱时期军团中唯一知道该组织的战士。摩尔戴斯作为一支精英隐形团队和破坏者,在与军团其他成员合作的同时,通过潜行暗语进行沟通。暗影大师在康斯坦尼斯二号进行了侧翼机动,并破坏了失常的护教军纵队。

Moritait Protocol 死亡战术协议
The Moritat Protocol dates back to the Horus Heresy, and sees individual Raven Guard dropped into warzones to train local defenders or pro-Imperial elements in order to wage a local insurgency in support of the Chapters own war effort. Other chapters that also employ local insurgencies to their own ends include the Alpha Legion and Word Bearers.
死亡战术协议可以追溯到荷鲁斯叛乱时期,当时个别暗鸦守卫被派往战区训练当地防御者或亲帝国分子,以发动当地叛乱,支援战团的战争努力。其他也利用当地叛乱达到自己目的的战团包括阿尔法军团和怀言者。
Culture and Traditions 文化与传统
Culture 文化
The Raven Guard are known for their grim and brooding nature. They are thought to be isolationist, dour, and laconic. These traits combined with their preference for secretive and stealth has made them few friends in the wider Imperium. However due to their history as liberators of slaves, the Raven Guard maintain close ties with mortals, particularly those of their homeworld Deliverance.
暗鸦守卫以其冷酷和沉思的天性而闻名。他们被认为是孤立主义者,沉默寡言,言简意赅。这些特征加上他们对秘密和隐秘的偏好,使他们在更广泛的帝国中几乎没有朋友。然而,由于他们作为奴隶解放者的历史,暗鸦守卫与凡人保持着密切的联系,尤其是那些来自他们家园拯救星的人。
Unknown to many, the culture of the Raven Guard also embraces art. Before the liberation of Deliverance, originally known as Lycaeus, self-expression among the slave miners was a deeply private matter, shared only with great reluctance. Anything beautiful had to be small enough to hide it from the overseers. In those hidden details, Corax learned to see art in small things. The prisoners of Lycaeus used what little free time they possessed to chip stone into beautiful, flowing forms.
许多人都不知道,暗鸦守卫的文化也包含艺术。在最初被称为吕凯乌斯的解放之前,奴隶矿工之间的自我表达是一件非常私人的事情,只是非常不情愿地分享。任何漂亮的东西都必须足够小,才能让监工看不见。在这些隐藏的细节中,科拉克斯学会了从小事中看到艺术。吕凯乌斯的囚犯利用他们仅有的一点空闲时间,将石头凿成美丽流畅的形状。
As a reminder of these traditions, some Raven Guard adorn their armour with mass of subtle geometric patterns and flowing motifs deriving from the decorative arts of Lycaean miners.
作为对这些传统的提醒,一些暗鸦守卫用大量微妙的几何图案和流动的图形装饰他们的盔甲,这些源于吕凯乌斯矿工的装饰艺术。
Known cultural traditions of the Raven Guard include the Contest of Shadows.
暗鸦守卫的已知文化传统包括暗影竞赛。
Rites of Shadow 暗影仪式
The Rites of Shadow are a Raven Guard and Successor Chapter silent ritual with ancient roots. Conducted in complete silence, Corspake sign language is used for traditional questions and answers. The Rites teach that the shadow contains both trues and lies, the purpose of each is the separation of one from the other, and glimpsing of verities otherwise hidden. This is applied to one's Battle-Brother's, one's cause, and even one's foes. Once one has completed the rites, they will earn the status of "Shadow". The title holds great respect, but no rank or authority.
暗影仪式是一个有着古老根源的暗鸦守卫和子战团的无声仪式。鸦语手语在完全沉默的情况下进行,用于传统的问答。仪式教导阴影既包含真理也包含谎言,每一个的目的都是将一个与另一个分开,并瞥见隐藏的真理。这适用于一个人的战斗兄弟、一个人的事业,甚至一个人的敌人。一旦完成仪式,他们将获得暗影的地位。头衔很受尊重,但没有等级或权力。
Corvia 鸦印
All Raven Guard during their initiation or as a form of meditation or spirit quest hunt the tiny ravens native to the forests of Kiavahr. It takes months of training and practice for recruits to sneak up on the small and alert birds, grab them in their bare hands and snap their necks. The skulls of these birds are worn as small totems hanging from a marine's belt on small chains. These totems are known as Corvia and represent a warrior's honour. If a battle-brother falls, one of his surviving comrades will recover his Corvia and carry it, and thus the fallen warrior's honour, into battle until he can return to Kiavahr and bury the small skulls in the soil of the Chapter's homeworld.
所有暗鸦守卫在入会期间,或作为冥想或精神探索的一种形式,都会猎杀基亚瓦尔森林中的小渡鸦。新兵需要数月的训练和练习才能悄悄接近这些小而警觉的鸟类,徒手抓住它们,然后拧断它们的脖子。这些鸟的头骨被制成小图腾,用小链子挂在星际战士的腰带上。这些图腾被称为鸦印,代表战士的荣誉。如果一个战斗兄弟倒下了,他的一个幸存的战友将回收他的鸦印,并将其以及倒下的战士的荣誉带入战斗,直到他可以返回基亚瓦尔并将小头骨埋在战团家园世界的土壤中。
Treatment of the Dead 死亡处理
Upon death, where practical, the body of a Raven Guard Marine will be stripped of its equipment and trappings (including the Corvia), harvested of its gene-seed and left for the local carrion birds to feed upon.
一旦死亡,在可行的情况下,暗鸦守卫战士的尸体将被回收其装备和装饰(包括鸦印),回收其基因种子,身体留给当地的腐肉鸟食用。
"Wraith-Slipping" “幽灵滑行”
Described as being a combination of mental discipline and martial art, the process of "wraith-slipping" is to take advantage of one's surroundings to conceal one's presence. This is not a psychic power but rather a collection of disciplines and techniques that the Raven Guard use to conceal their visual and aural presence despite their use of power armour. It is a technique that is described both prior to the outbreak of civil war in the Horus Heresy and up to the 41st Millennium.
被描述为精神训练和武艺的结合,“幽灵滑行”的过程是利用周围的环境来隐藏自己的存在。这不是一种灵能力量,而是暗鸦守卫用来隐藏视觉和听觉存在的一系列纪律和技术,尽管他们使用了动力盔甲。这是一种在荷鲁斯叛乱内战爆发之前和第41个千年之前都有描述的技术。
Corspake 鸦语
Corspake is a form of sign language taught to all members of the Raven Guard. This allows them to communicate on the battlefield without having to risk themselves to exposure by speaking or using Vox technology. Notable signs include The Crowfane; the Feast of Bones; the Empty Chime; even the Murder Call, which calls for vengeance against the slayer of a great hero. The 2nd Company is known for its prodigious use of Corspake, and none can rise to the rank of Shadow Captain without mastering it.
鸦语是一种手语,教授给暗鸦守卫的所有成员。这使他们能够在战场上进行交流,而不必通过说话或使用音阵技术来冒险暴露自己。著名的手势包括乌鸦神殿;骨头盛宴;空无钟鸣;甚至是谋杀呼唤,它呼吁对一位伟大英雄的凶手进行复仇。第二连以其对鸦语的惊人使用而闻名,没有人能在不掌握它的情况下晋升为暗影连长。
During the Great Crusade the Raven Guard Legion followed the basic organizational doctrine. The Legion was divided into chapters, chapters were divided into battalions, battalions into companies, and companies into squads. However companies were preferred for most independent operations. Legion officers devolved command responsibility to sub-commanders, allowing them to make tactical decisions and to seek the initiative without interfering with the command chain. The influence of Terran recruits from the Xeric tribes was the cause of this.
在大远征期间,暗鸦守卫军团遵循了基本的组织学说。军团分为战团,战团分为营,营分为连队,连分为小队。然而,大多数独立行动的连队更受欢迎。老兵军官将指挥权下放给副指挥官,使他们能够在不干扰指挥链的情况下做出战术决策并寻求主动权。来自薛里克部落的泰拉新兵的影响是造成这一现象的原因。
During Corax's restructuring of the Raven Guard, he was able to commission several innovations for his own use from Mars. These were all then modified further by the Legion itself to maximize stealth and speed. Unique combat vehicles included the Whispercutter - an open-topped airframe flyer that was capable of dropping 10 Space Marines into a war zone in utter silence and with practically no chance of detection. Other unique variants included the stealthy Thunderhawk variant known as the Shadowhawk and the similar Storm eagle pattern dubbed the Dark Wing.
在科拉克斯重组暗鸦守卫期间,他能够从火星上委托进行几项创造供自己使用。这些都被军团本身进一步修改,以最大限度地提高隐蔽性和速度。独特的战斗载具包括低语切割者,这是一种顶部开放机身的飞行器,能够在完全寂静的情况下将10名星际战士投入战区,几乎没有被发现的机会。其他独特的变体包括被称为暗影鹰的隐形雷鹰变体和被称为暗翼的类似的风暴鹰型号。
After the Dropsite Massacre Corax was left with a tattered Legion and had to reorganize them. They were combined into divisions based on combat specializations. The tactical companies became the Talons, the assault companies became the Falcons, and light vehicle squadrons and air support were renamed the Hawks. Another unit of genetically enhanced Astartes dubbed the Raptors was later added as well.
在登陆点大屠杀之后,科拉克斯被留下了一个破败的军团,不得不重组他们。他们根据作战专长被合并为部。战术连变成了鹰爪,突击连变成了猎鹰,轻型载具中队和空中支援被重新命名为雄鹰。后来又增加了另一支被称为猛禽的基因增强阿斯塔特。

Recruitment 招募
Owing to the instability of the Raven Guard gene-seed and the experiments of Corax, much of the chapter's genetic stock has been irreparably damaged. Now, much of their genetic material comes from supplies held on Terra. This means the cycle of recruitment for the Raven Guard is much slower than other Chapters and fewer Raven Guard candidates for the Chapter prove able to survive their training and genetic modification. This means the chapter is constantly short-handed.
由于暗鸦守卫基因种子的不稳定性和科拉克斯的实验,本章的大部分基因资源都受到了不可挽回的损害。现在,他们的大部分基因物质来自泰拉上的供应。这意味着暗鸦守卫的招募周期比其他战团慢得多,并且该战团的暗鸦守卫候选人中能够经受住训练和基因改造的人更少。这意味着这一战团总是人手不足。
The Raven Guard's homeworld Deliverance is said to lack the population resources available on other chapter's homeworlds. By the time of the Horus Heresy only a few thousand marines in the Raven Guard's number were recruited from Deliverance, the rest made up of the original Terran forces inducted before the Great Crusade.
据说暗鸦守卫的家园世界拯救星缺乏其他战团家园世界可用的人口资源。到荷鲁斯叛乱时期,只有几千名暗鸦守卫星际战士从拯救星招募,其余的由大远征前加入的原初泰拉部队组成。
Today, Aspirants are considered to be given a high honor of receiving the rare and unstable Gene-seed of the Chapter. They are thus subjected to harsh training in the force-domes of Deliverance and Kiavahr. They face lethal conditions with little food, water, or sleep, and are required to evade or kill monsters and Mutants and must learn patience, stealth, and the art of the hunt in order to survive. In the Trial of the Watcher, an Aspirant is required to navigate the ganglands of Kiavahr and undertake missions with only the most minimal of visual clues to guide them to their objective.
今天,有志者被认为获得了战团罕见且不稳定的基因种子的高度荣誉。因此,他们在拯救星和基亚瓦尔的部队穹顶中接受了艰苦的训练。他们面临着几乎没有食物、水或睡眠的致命环境,需要躲避或杀死怪物和变种人,必须学会耐心、隐形和狩猎技艺才能生存。在《守望者的审判》中,一名有志者需要在基亚瓦尔的黑帮中穿行,并在只有最少量视觉线索的情况下执行任务,以引导他们实现目标。
In the Trial of Justice, they are tested to see if they can uphold to the ideals of Corax. In this challenge, Aspirants are strapped to a chair in near total darkness and has their mind examined by Chapter Librarians as they are given questions by Chaplains on questions relating to loyalty, courage, freedom, and justice. They are often given hypothetical scenarios and complex moral dilemmas and forced to give solutions. There are no true right or wrong answers to these questions, though due to the presence of Librarians an Aspirant can not lie and give responses he knows will please his overseers. A mere attempt at dishonesty sees one killed on the spot or made into a Servitor.
在正义试炼中,他们接受了考验,看看他们是否能够坚持科拉克斯的理想。在这个挑战中,有志者被绑在近乎完全黑暗的椅子上,当牧师就忠诚、勇气、自由和正义等问题向他们提问时,战团智库会检查他们的思想。他们经常被给予假设的情景和复杂的道德困境,并被迫给出解决方案。这些问题没有真正的对错答案,尽管由于智控的存在,有志者不能撒谎,也不能给出他知道会取悦监督者的答案。仅仅是一次不诚实的尝试,就会看到一个人当场被杀或被变成一个机仆。
The Trial of the Wraith is a more physical challenge and forces Aspirants to be dropped alone into the Ologothien Wastes on Kiavahr. They must then traverse 199 miles of lethal territory in three days without sustenance and to be not spotted by a native predator. Thus aspirants are forced to utilize their stealth training to the utmost extreme.
幽灵试炼是一个更具体力的挑战,迫使有志者独自被扔进基亚瓦尔的奥洛戈提恩荒原。然后,他们必须在三天内穿越199英里的致命区域,没有食物,也不会被本土捕食者发现。因此,有志者被迫将他们的隐形训练发挥到极致。
Those that complete their trials can expect long service in the 10th Company as Scouts, which the Raven Guard maintains a higher amount of compared to other Chapters. Upon proving themselves after years of service in the 10th Company, a full Battle-Brother can take on a new name, often that of a past Chapter champion or a Kiavahran word for beast, weapons, or folk hero.
那些完成试炼的人可以期待在第十连队作为侦察兵长期服役,与其他战团相比,暗鸦守卫保持了更高的侦察兵数量。在第十连队服役多年后,一个完全的战斗兄弟可以取一个新名字,通常是过去的战团冠军的名字,或者基亚瓦尔语中野兽、武器或民间英雄的名字。
Equipment 装备
The Chapter makes wide use of the "beaked" and older marks of Power Armour (Mk. IV-VI). After their near-destruction at Isstvan V, the Raven Guard techmarines created ad hoc suits using salvaged parts and components from other suits or vehicles. When the battle barge Avenger returned to Deliverance, the Raven Guard received a shipment of 2 000 suits of Mark VI Power Armour. At that time, the Mk. VI, designed as the "Corvus suit", was the newest and most advanced version. Because this mark of Power Armour carries the name of the primarch Corax it is natural that the Raven Guard feel a bond to this mark of armour.
战团广泛使用了“喙”和较旧的动力盔甲型号(Mk.IV-VI)。在伊斯塔万五号几乎被摧毁后,暗鸦守卫技术军事使用从其他套装或车辆中回收的零部件制作了临时套装。当战斗驳船复仇者号返回救援时,暗鸦守卫收到了2000套Mark VI动力盔甲。当时,被设计为“渡鸦套装”的Mk.VI是最新、最先进的版本。因为这个动力盔甲型号上有原体科拉克斯的名字,所以暗鸦守卫自然会对这个盔甲型号产生感情。
With the initiation of Primaris Marines and the Mark X armour, Raven Guard marines frequently make use of the Phobos variant, due to its lighter weight.
随着原铸星际战士和Mark X盔甲的开始,暗鸦守卫战士经常使用福波斯变体,因为它的重量更轻。

Raven Guard Reiver 暗鸦守卫掠夺者
Raven Guard power armour utilises enhanced cooling systems that which helps it to blend in better with the background. This means Raven Guard Marines are harder to detect by thermal or infrared devices.
暗鸦守卫动力盔甲采用增强的冷却系统,有助于更好地融入背景。这意味着暗鸦守卫战士更难被热射或红外设备探测到。
Vehicles 载具
The Raven Guard makes use of an array of unique vehicles tailored to the Chapter's specialization in stealth assault. These include the Whispercutter.
暗鸦守卫使用了一系列独特的载具,这些载具是为战团在隐形突击方面的专业化量身定制的。其中包括低语切割者。
Fleet 舰队
During the Horus Heresy, the Raven Guard's fleet was equipped with special stealth technology: a ship's void shields could be modified so that they provided only minimal protection, but at the benefit of making the vessel nearly undetectable either visually or by sensors. It took only a few minutes for this adjustment to be made. The Raven Guard also operates a stealthy variant of the Thunderhawk, the Shadowhawk.
在荷鲁斯叛乱期间,暗鸦守卫的舰队配备了特殊的隐形技术:可以修改船只的虚空盾,使其仅提供最低限度的保护,但有利于使船只几乎无法被视觉或传感器探测到。只花几分钟就能完成这一调整。暗鸦守卫还使用着雷鹰的隐形变种—影鹰。

Trivia 琐事
While stated in the background that all Raven Guard have black hair, there is at least one instance where Games Workshop showed a miniature with a different hair colour (accessed 2011/09/08). If this is a mistake or deliberate is unknown.
虽然背景中提到所有暗鸦守卫都有黑色头发,但至少有一个例子是GW展示了一个头发颜色不同的模型(2011/09/08访问)。这是一个错误还是故意的尚不清楚。
