The Iron Hands were the X Legion of the twenty original Space Marine Legions, sometimes referred to as the "Iron Tenth". Their Primarch is Ferrus Manus. Like the other loyalist Legions, much of the Iron Hands forces would later, according to the dictates of the Codex Astartes, be re-organized into smaller Chapters. The Iron Hands are notable for their heavy use of bionics and their reverence for all things mechanical, and thus their close ties to the Adeptus Mechanicus.

钢铁之手军团是最初的二十个星际战士军团中的第十军团,有时被称为“铁十”。他们的原体是费鲁斯·马努斯。与其他忠诚的军团一样,钢铁之手部队的大部分部队后来将根据阿斯塔特圣典的规定重新组织成更小的战团。钢铁之手以其大量使用仿生和对所有机械事物的敬畏而闻名,因此他们与机械神教有着密切的联系。

Homeworld 家园世界

Medusa is located near the Eye of Terror. Its landscape is harsh and generally unstable, with massive tectonic shifts occurring on a regular basis. Medusa is not united by any single government, but instead is populated by disparate clans of miners living out of great tracked vehicles travelling in caravans. There are only two notable locations on Medusa: a volcano known as Karaashi, which was the location of the arrival of Ferrus Manus on the planet, and the Land of Shadows. The Land of Shadows is populated only by ghostly relics of ages past and is said to be haunted by the spirits of Medusans long dead; those who go there only go in order to become supplicants to the Iron Hands' recruitment process.

美杜莎位于恐惧之眼附近。它的地貌恶劣,通常不稳定,经常发生大规模的构造变化。美杜莎不是由任何一个政府统一的,而是由不同的矿工氏族组成的,他们住在车队里的大型履带载具里。美杜莎上只有两个值得注意的地方:一个是被称为卡拉希的火山,它是马努斯抵达行星的地方,另一个是暗影之地。暗影之地只有古老的幽灵遗迹,据说被早已死去的美杜莎人的灵魂所困扰;那些去那里的人只是为了成为钢铁之手招募过程的祈求者。

History 历史

Origins 起源

Originally known as the Storm Walkers or Stormwalkers, the legion was created during the latter days of the Unification Wars on Terra. Recruitment bases at this time were spread widely all across the planet, but the warlike cultures of Albia in particular provided effective initiates for the Legion. The Legion's first instance of recorded combat was in the Sol system against a Mutant warband known as Scythers. Shortly thereafter they exterminated the Xenos Lyasx on the world of Oberath. While the Legion was victorious in both actions, they did not yet seem to specialize in any area of warfare. It was only during the invasion of the Ork-held Planet 02-34 (designated 'Rust') that the Legion's effectiveness in utilizing slow-moving mass firepower became apparent.

该军团最初被称为风暴步行者或风暴行者,是在泰拉统一战争的后期创建的。当时的募兵基地遍布全球,但阿尔比亚的好战文化尤其为军团提供了有效的启蒙。军团第一次有记录的战斗是在太阳系中与一个名为镰刀的变种战帮作战。不久之后,他们在奥伯拉斯世界消灭了异型莱亚克斯。虽然军团在这两次行动中都取得了胜利,但他们尚未在任何作战领域形成专业特长。只有在入侵欧克控制的02-34行星(命名为“铁锈”)期间,军团在运用慢速推进的集群火力方面展现出显著战力。

Great Crusade-era Medusan Immortal 大远征时期美杜莎不朽者

In the first years of the Great Crusade, the Legion earned great renown for its bellicose and combined arms strategies that were used in conjunction with the Excertus Imperialis. They would lead Imperial Army auxiliaries in making planetfall en masse and digging in (the storm). Next came a massed armoured thrust of the Legion's tanks, Dreadnoughts, and heavy infantry (the hammer). This became known as the "Hammer and the Storm", and was the origin for their original name of Storm Walkers. The Legion became known for its cooperation with the Imperial Army, effective leadership, and strategic prowess.

在大远征的最初几年,该军团因其好战勇猛的作风与多兵种协同战术而声名远扬,这些战术常与帝国辅军协同运用。他们会率领帝国陆军辅助军大规模登陆行星,随即构筑防御阵地(风暴)。接下来是军团坦克、无畏和重型步兵(铁锤)的密集装甲推进。这被称为“铁锤和风暴”,是他们最初名字“风暴行者”的起源。军团因其与帝国军队的合作、有效的领导和战略实力而闻名。

Ferrus Manus 费鲁斯·马努斯

The Primarch of what would later officially become the Iron Hands, Ferrus Manus (also known as "The Gorgon"), was among the first of the Emperor's sons to be rediscovered. The early history of Ferrus Manus is chronicled in the folklore of Medusa. The most popular of these tales is the "Canticle of Travels", which details the trials of Ferrus Manus and his ordeal with the Great Silver Wyrm known as Asirnoth. The Canticle is the only tale that even attempts to explain the mystery of how Ferrus Manus came by his living metal hands. Ferrus Manus never united the people of his homeworld in the way most of the other Primarchs had, on the basis that competition grew greater strength. When the Emperor eventually came to Medusa, Ferrus Manus tested himself against him as well in a cataclysmic battle that is said to have lain waste to entire mountains. Finally having found someone his equal, Ferrus accepted the Emperor as his master and took command of the X Legion of Space Marines, which was renamed the Iron Hands in his honour.

后来正式成为钢铁之手的原体费鲁斯·马努斯(也被称为“戈尔贡”)是帝皇最早被重新发现的儿子之一。美杜莎的民间传说记载了马努斯的早期历史。这些故事中最受欢迎的是“旅行颂歌”,它详细描述了费鲁斯·马努斯的试炼以及他与被称为阿西诺斯的巨型银龙的磨难。颂歌是唯一一个试图解释费鲁斯·马努斯是如何通过他活着的金属手臂来到这里的谜团的故事。费鲁斯·马努斯从未像其他大多数原体那样,在竞争日益激烈的基础上,团结家乡的人民。当帝皇最终来到美杜莎时,费鲁斯·马努斯也在一场灾难性的战斗中考验了自己,据说这场战斗摧毁了整个山脉。终于找到了一个与他势均力敌的人,费鲁斯接受了帝皇为他的主人,并指挥了星际战士的第十军团,为了纪念他,该军团更名为钢铁之手。

Great Crusade-era Iron Hand 大远征时期钢铁之手

With the Gorgon at their head, the Iron Hands quickly became renowned for their ability to confront enemies of the Great Crusade head-on, gaining a reputation as ruthless and calculating fighters. They excelled at high-intensity warfare against both technologically advanced foes and brutal xenos such as Orks whose sheer power and vast numbers constituted a grave threat to the success of the Crusade. Soon enough, the Iron Hands became known as the Iron Tenth and were deliberately deployed to battlefronts where set-piece engagements against massed armies were likely. As their battle style required advanced war engines, the Iron Hands began to establish their notoriously close ties with the Adeptus Mechanicus, whose culture was astonishingly similar to their own. One of the most notable campaigns waged by the Iron Hands during the Great Crusade was that against the Diasporex. During the Astranii Campaign, the Iron Hands had a severe dispute with the Imperial Fists over what should become of the Astranii Machine Empire. Ferrus wished for the civilizations destruction as Hereteks, while Rogal Dorn wanted them assimilated into the larger Imperium. Ultimately, it fell to Horus Lupercal and an honor duel to settle the dispute.

在戈尔贡的领导下,钢铁之手迅速以正面对抗大远征敌人的能力而闻名,并获得了无情和精于算计的战士的声誉。他们擅长与技术先进的敌人和欧克等野蛮的异型进行高强度战争,欧克的强大力量和庞大数量对远征的成功构成了严重威胁。很快,钢铁之手就被称为铁十,并被故意部署到可能与大规模军队发生定点战斗的前线。由于他们的战斗风格需要先进的战争引擎,钢铁之手开始与机械神教建立了著名的密切联系,他们的文化与他们自己的文化惊人地相似。钢铁之手在大远征期间发动的最著名的战役之一是对抗流散者。在阿斯特拉尼战役期间,钢铁之手与帝国之拳就阿斯特拉尼机械帝国的未来发生了激烈的争执。费鲁斯希望文明像技术异端一样毁灭,而罗格·多恩则希望他们融入更大的帝国。最终,这场争端落在了荷鲁斯·卢佩卡尔和一场荣誉决斗的肩上。

The Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱

At the outset of the Heresy, Fulgrim — the Primarch of the Emperor's Children — tried to turn Ferrus Manus to join the side of the traitors. When Ferrus refused, Fulgrim had his fleet launch a crippling attack on the Iron Hands vessels, although he could not bring himself to kill his brother. In the wake of this betrayal, Ferrus took as many of his veterans as he could onboard one of the few undamaged vessels to participate in the loyalist attack on Isstvan V. This proved to be a disaster when four of the supposedly loyal Legions turned on their allies, resulting in the Drop Site Massacre and horrendous casualties amongst the Raven Guard and Salamanders Legions and the death of Ferrus Manus and his entire retinue. During the massacre, despite making bold attacks against staggering odds, nearly all of the vast Iron Hand’s armoured formations were thought to be destroyed. Rumors persist that Ferrus Manus's corpse was taken to Mars but the Iron Hands deny any such claims.

叛乱开始时,帝皇之子的原体福格瑞姆试图让费鲁斯·马努斯加入叛徒一方。当费鲁斯拒绝时,福格瑞姆让他的舰队对钢铁之手战舰发动了致命的攻击,尽管他无法杀死他的兄弟。在这次背叛之后,费鲁斯尽可能多地将他的老兵带上为数不多的完好无损的战舰之一,参加了忠诚派对伊斯塔万五号的袭击。当四个据称忠诚的军团背叛他们的盟友时,这被证明是一场灾难,导致了登陆点大屠杀,暗鸦守卫和火蜥蜴军团遭受了可怕的伤亡,费鲁斯·马努斯和他的整个随行人员也死亡了。在大屠杀期间,尽管冒着惊人的不利条件进行了大胆的攻击,但几乎所有庞大的铁手装甲部队都被摧毁了。有传言称,费鲁斯·马努斯的尸体被带到了火星,但钢铁之手否认了任何此类说法。

The events at Isstvan V proved to be deeply traumatic to the Iron Hands, and they struggled to explain their crippling defeat. The survivors drew sharply different conclusions: Many developed a grudge against all the participants of the Heresy: the traitors, for being weak enough to become corrupted, but also against the other loyalists, for not being strong enough to protect the Emperor and their Primarch. Others became convinced that the Iron Hands and Ferrus Manus himself had been defeated because they had proven to be too weak, and devoted themselves to self-hatred. Some drew far darker conclusions, and went completely renegade. Large numbers of Iron Hands could not cope with the disaster at all; they went simply insane. Either way, the majority of the Iron Hands consequently launched "campaigns of redemption" to both atone for their own perceived weaknesses as well as to take revenge on the traitors.

伊斯塔万五号的事件对钢铁之手来说是深深的创伤,他们很难解释自己的惨败。幸存者得出了截然不同的结论:许多人对叛乱的所有参与者都怀恨在心:叛徒,因为他们软弱到足以腐化,但也对其他忠诚者,因为他们没有足够的力量来保护帝皇和他们的原体。其他人则相信钢铁之手和费鲁斯·马努斯本人之所以被击败,是因为他们被证明过于软弱,并致力于自我憎恨。一些人得出了更为悲观的结论,并彻底背叛了。大批钢铁之手根本无法应对这场灾难;他们简直疯了。无论哪种方式,大多数钢铁之手因此发起了“救赎战役”,既弥补了自己的弱点,也对叛徒进行了报复。

As a result of the defeat at Isstvan V as well as their internal disagreements, the Iron Hands factually broke as a Legion. One of the largest Iron Hand factions organized under Shadrak Meduson and waged a guerrilla war, nearly assassinating Horus, Fulgrim and Mortarion during the Battle of Dwell. Meduson attempted to reforge the Iron Hands and their Raven Guard and Salamanders allies into a new Legion to battle Horus directly, but was undermined by the crazed Cult of the Gorgon which claimed that it had resurrected Ferrus Manus. Ultimately Meduson, driven by vengeance, was slain at the Battle of the Aragna Chain. Meanwhile, another large Iron Hands force rallied under Autek Mor and devoted itself to the complete and merciless destruction of any Traitors; Mor's most notable success was the complete destruction of Bodt, a world used by the World Eaters to train its new troops. Other Iron Hands organized as part of smaller Shattered Legion groups, joining warbands which included Space Marines of several different legions; one such contingent was part of the loyalist army which took part in the Siege of Baal. Another important Shattered Legion force was led by the Iron Hands Ulrach Branthan, and later Cadmus Tyro, who campaigned against the traitors aboard the Sisypheum.

由于在伊斯塔万五号的失败以及他们内部的分歧,钢铁之手作为一个军团实际上解散了。沙德拉克·梅杜森领导下最大的钢铁之手派系之一,发动了一场游击战,在德维尔之战中几乎杀死了荷鲁斯、福格瑞姆和莫塔里安。梅杜森试图将钢铁之手及其暗鸦守卫和火蜥蜴盟友改造成一个新的军团,直接与荷鲁斯作战,但遭到了疯狂的戈尔贡教派的破坏,该教派声称它已经复活了费鲁斯·马努斯。最终,梅杜森在复仇的驱使下,在阿拉贡纳星链之战中被杀。与此同时,另一支庞大的钢铁之手部队在奥泰克·摩尔的领导下集结,致力于彻底无情地消灭任何叛徒;摩尔最显著的成功是彻底摧毁了博德特,这个世界被吞世者用来训练新部队。其他钢铁之手组织为较小的破碎军团团体的一部分,加入了包括几个不同军团的星际战士在内的战争组织;其中一支特遣队是参加围攻巴尔的忠诚派军队的一部分。另一支重要的破碎军团部队由钢铁之手乌拉什·布兰坦领导,后来又由卡德摩斯·泰罗领导,他们在西西弗姆号上对抗叛徒。

"Ignominy is preferable to the shackles of cowards too weak to walk by their sire's side."- Description of the Medusan Council, given by an unknown Iron Hand survivor of the Dropsite Massacre

“耻辱比懦弱到不能走在大人身边的懦夫的枷锁更可取。” — 一位不知名的登陆点大屠杀钢铁之手幸存者对美杜莎议会的描述

A large section of the Iron Hands retreated to Medusa, where they formed the Medusan Council and mass recruited new Space Marines. These Iron Hands would only reenter the Horus Heresy during its later stages, launching counter-attacks against the Traitors, most notably the "Bitter War" against the Word Bearers. The Medusan Council was largely recruited from individuals who had avoided the Dropsite Massacre due to having been exiled by Ferrus Manus. Accordingly, this faction commanded little respect among other Iron Hands loyalists. The Medusa-based faction and other Iron Hands would later be accused of having turned to forbidden technology after Ferrus Manus' death, particularily the Keys of Hel. Finally, there were some Iron Hands who were so disillusioned after Isstvan V that they took even more extreme steps. Some decided to strike out on their own, rejecting all masters and pursuing their own agendas ignoring the wider Horus Heresy. Others turned their back on the Legion entirely, becoming Blackshields. There was even a force of Iron Hands who turned completely traitor, joining the armies of Horus and adding the livery of the Sons of Horus to their old Iron Hands heraldry.

钢铁之手的大部分撤退到美杜莎,在那里他们成立了美杜莎议会,并大规模招募了新的星际战士。这些钢铁之手只在荷鲁斯叛乱后期重新加入,对叛徒发动反击,最著名的是对怀言者的“苦战”。美杜莎议会主要是从那些因被费鲁斯·马努斯流放而避免了登陆点大屠杀的人那里招募的。因此,这个派系在其他钢铁之手忠诚者中几乎没有得到尊重。以美杜莎为基地的派系和其他钢铁之手后来被指控在费鲁斯·马努斯牺牲后转向了被禁止的技术,特别是赫尔之钥。最后,有一些钢铁之手在伊斯塔万五号之后非常失望,他们采取了更极端的措施。一些人决定自己出击,拒绝所有大师,追求自己的议程,无视更广泛的荷鲁斯叛乱。其他人完全背弃了军团,成为了黑盾。甚至有一支钢铁之手部队完全叛变,加入了荷鲁斯的军队,并将荷鲁斯之子的色彩添加到他们的旧钢铁之手纹章中。

Post-Heresy 叛乱后

Following the Horus Heresy, the Iron Hands were in a state of disarray and still reeling fron their near-destruction. The remnants of the Legion were split up into smaller Chapters, with known descendants of the Iron Hands at this time being the Red Talons and the Brazen Claws. Those who were not split off were reorganized into the Iron Hands Chapter. While many Imperial factions bayed for blood and rushed to vent their fury upon their betrayers, the Iron Hands Chapter gathered its strength on Medusa for a conclave known as "the Tempering". There, it was decided that no single individual would command the Iron Hands again. Instead, the Iron Council would oversee the Chapter.

在荷鲁斯叛乱之后,钢铁之手处于混乱状态,仍然因近乎毁灭而摇摇欲坠。军团的残余被分成更小的战团,此时钢铁之手的已知子战团是红爪和黄铜之爪。那些没有被拆分的人被重组为钢铁之手战团。当许多帝国派系高呼鲜血,冲着背叛者发泄愤怒时,钢铁之手战团在美杜莎聚集力量,举行了一场被称为“回火”的秘密会议。在那里,决定不再有一个人指挥铁手。相反,钢铁议会将监督该战团。

The Iron Hands battle the Death Guard 钢铁之手与死亡守卫战斗

The "Tempering" conclave further determined the Human race itself – in all contemptible emotion – was to blame for the Heresy, and must be purged of flaws. So it was that the Iron Hands determined their guiding mission. They would exact payment for the wrongs done to them, but with a measured ruthlessness. In their every thought and deed, they would seek out weakness and destroy it, replacing it with machine-like fortitude. Thus began a bloody campaign that continues to this day, fought by the Iron Hands and those amongst their successors shaped by these teachings. Meanwhile, the Mechanicum devised a scheme to edit a pre-Imperial document in order to better manipulate the Iron Hands to their will. This document became known as the Canticle of Travels.

“回火”会议进一步确定,人类本身 — 在所有可鄙的情绪中 — 是叛乱的罪魁祸首,必须清除其缺陷。因此,钢铁之手决定了他们的指导任务。他们会为对他们所犯的错误索取赔偿,但会表现出适度的无情。在他们的每一个思想和行为中,他们都会寻找弱点并摧毁它,用机械般的坚韧取而代之。由此开始了一场血腥的战役,这场战役一直持续到今天,由钢铁之手及其子战团中受这些教义影响的人进行。与此同时,机械教设计了一个方案来编辑帝国之前的文件,以便更好地按照他们的意愿操纵钢铁之手。这份文件被称为“旅行颂歌”。

Major Battles and Campaigns 主要战斗和战役

  • c.M35: Moirae Schism — A civil conflict which occurred during the Nova Terra Interregnum. During this schism, which affected all branches of the Adeptus Mechanicus and those Imperial factions closely tied to it, the Iron Hands chapter stood at the brink of destroying itself in an internal chapter war. The crisis came to a head when Moirae elements of Clan Dorrvok attempted to seize Chapter Gene-Seed and impose adherence to their creed at a genetic level. In the end, they were stopped by Clan Raukaan. Ultimately the Great Clan Council of the Iron Hands were able to settle the matter by exiling the Moirae dissidents from the chapter, with both sides swearing never to take up arms against each other. Almost a full third of the chapter split away to become a fleet based divergent branch of the Iron Hands. This branch became known as the Sons of Medusa.

  • 摩伊赖分裂 — 新泰拉空位期发生的一场内战。在这场影响机械神教所有分支和与之密切相关的帝国派系的分裂中,钢铁之手战团处于战团内部战争中自我毁灭的边缘。当多弗克氏族的摩伊赖分子试图夺取战团基因种子并在基因层面上坚持他们的信仰时,危机达到了顶峰。最后,他们被劳坎氏族拦住了。最终,钢铁之手大氏族议会通过将摩伊赖不同政见者从战团中驱逐来解决这个问题,双方都发誓永远不会拿起武器对抗对方。战团几乎有三分之一被拆分,成为钢铁之手的一个以舰基为子战团。这个分支被称为美杜莎之子。

  • 412.M41: Defence of Fabris Callivant — The Iron Hands defended the homeworld of their allies, House Callivant, from Ork forces.

  • 防御法布里斯·卡利万特 — 钢铁之手保卫了他们的盟友卡利万特家族的家园世界,使其免受欧克军队的攻击。

  • 460.M41: Gaudinian Heresy — A third of the Iron Council is lost to a massive Daemonic corruption and in an ensuing ambush by the Emperor's Children.

  • 高迪尼安叛乱 - 钢铁议会的三分之一成员死于大规模的恶魔腐化,随后遭到帝皇之子的伏击。

  • 812.M41: Purging of Contqual — The Iron Hands eliminated Chaos forces from twelve planets in the Contqual subsector. At the height of the battle Chief Librarian Telach sacrificed himself to stop Julius Kaesoron, former First Captain of the Emperor's Children, now a Daemon Prince of Slaanesh.

  • 净化康特奎尔 — 钢铁之手在康特奎尔分区的十二颗行星上消灭了混沌部队。在战斗最激烈的时候,首席智库特拉赫牺牲了自己,以阻止前帝皇之子的第一连长尤里乌斯·卡索隆,现在是色孽的恶魔王子。

  • 863.M41: Saint Cyllia Massacres — The Iron Hands pursued the Adamant Fury Traitor Titan Legion following the massacre.

  • 圣赛利亚大屠杀 — 大屠杀发生后,钢铁之手追捕了坚毅怒火叛徒泰坦军团。

  • c.M41: The False Saint — Elements of the Third Company lead the assault on the stronghold of the False Saint, the daemon-possessed body of Saint Drusus, on the storm-riddled dead world of Grangold in the Calixis Sector. Though wiped out in battle with the daemonic forces of Tzeentch, their actions allows elements of the Imperial Guard, led by agents of the Inquisition, to banish the False Saint and close the Warp portal the daemon was opening.

  • 伪圣 — 第三连队的成员在卡利西斯星区风暴肆虐的死亡世界格兰戈尔德,率先对伪圣的要塞发起突袭 —— 伪圣即是被恶魔附身的圣德鲁苏斯遗体。尽管在与色孽的恶魔部队的战斗中被消灭,但他们的行动允许由审判庭特工领导的帝国卫队成员驱逐伪圣,并关闭恶魔正在打开的亚空间门户。

  • Invasion of the Stygius Sector — In what becomes known as the Iron Crusade, the Iron Hands are joined by many successor chapters such as the Sons of Medusa, Fire Lords, Silver Skulls, Brazen Claws, and Iron Lords. They manage to hold Mordian from Chaos assault and are continuing to battle traitors throughout the Sector.

  • 入侵冥河星区 — 在后来被称为钢铁远征的行动中,许多子战团加入了钢铁之手,如美杜莎之子、火焰领主、银色骷髅、黄铜之爪和钢铁领主。他们设法将莫迪安从混沌的进攻中解救出来,并继续在整个星区与叛徒作战。

  • Sabbyst Planetstrike — Clan Raukaan launches a reckless assault on Sabbyst seeking vengeance against Fulgrim. Ultimately Iron Captain Sind Grolvoch is killed by the Daemon Primarch while buying time for refugees to escape.

  • 噩兆方舟战役 — 阿尔巴尔连长领导跳帮噩兆方舟莫比迪厄斯号。

Beliefs and Reputation 信仰与声誉

The Iron Hands have a reputation for being relatively straightforward and incredibly harsh. In the Battle of Thranx for example the resources of several depleted Clan Companies were pooled for a full-frontal assault using five Land Raiders against a facility bristling with anti-tank defences that had made a mockery of previous attempts with whole armoured companies; in the retaking of the Contqual Subsector, one-third of the population was summarily executed after a successful campaign simply to demonstrate the price of weakness. They are also known to be on poor terms with the Raven Guard and after the liberation of the Kelldar System from an Ork Waaagh! in 810.M41 refused to sit at the same feasting table as their Raven Guard allies.

钢铁之手以相对直率和令人难以置信的严厉而闻名。例如,在特兰克斯之战中,几个精疲力尽的氏族连队的资源被集中起来,使用五辆兰德掠袭者对一个布满反坦克防御的设施进行全面正面进攻,这是对之前整个装甲连连尝试的嘲弄;在重新夺回康特奎尔分区的过程中,三分之一的人在一场成功的战役后被即刻处决,仅仅是为了证明软弱的代价。众所周知,他们与暗鸦守卫关系不佳,在810.M41凯尔达尔星系从欧克的Waaagh!解放后拒绝与他们的暗鸦守卫盟友坐在同一张餐桌旁。

Bionics 仿生

The Iron Hands are infamous for their extensive use of bionics, which has helped bring them into a close relationship with the Adeptus Mechanicus. After the Horus Heresy, when the Legions were reorganized into Chapters, the Iron Hands became recluses, attempting to find ways to make themselves even stronger so that they would be fit for serving under Ferrus Manus again at the end of times. Many within the Chapter consider flesh to be a sign of weakness, and seek to expunge it from themselves through mechanical enhancement. To this end, they have made it a practice to make extensive use of bionic modifications, going so far that there are rumours of some battle brothers being wholly mechanical. Iron Hands consider the greatest honour they can receive is to be interred in Dreadnought armour. It is in the so-called Blessing of Iron ritual that the Iron Hands replace parts of their bodies with Bionics.

钢铁之手因广泛使用仿生而著名,这有助于他们与机械神教建立密切的关系。在荷鲁斯叛乱之后,当军团被重组为战团时,钢铁之手成为了隐士,试图找到让自己变得更强大的方法,这样他们就可以在终焉之时再次在费鲁斯·马努斯手下服役。战团中的许多人认为肉体是软弱的象征,并试图通过机械强化将其从自己身上抹去。为此,他们已经将广泛使用仿生修改作为一种做法,到目前为止,有传言称一些战斗兄弟完全是机械的。钢铁之手认为,他们能得到的最大荣誉就是葬入无畏装甲。在所谓的钢铁祝福仪式中,钢铁之手用仿生取代了身体的一部分。

The Iron Hands also eschew the traditional office of Chaplain in favour of their Iron Fathers, specially trained Techmarines who serve to protect the faith of their brethren; some outsiders view this, as well as the Iron Hands' ties to the Adeptus Mechanicus, as an unhealthy relationship.

钢铁之手也避开了传统的牧师职位,转而支持他们的铁父,受过专门训练的技术军士,他们致力于保护兄弟的信仰;一些局外人认为,这以及钢铁之手与机械神教的关系是一种不健康的关系。

Forgechain 熔炉之链

While many Iron Hands use skull-studs to denote long service in the same manner as other Chapters, in recent years some have begun using a strange augmetic known as the Forgechain. The Forgechain is a series of augmetic vertebrae. Each new vertebrae shows acceptance into a another Clan. Each company makes its own links so all links in the chain are different. Clan Dorrvok for example uses plain steel to form the first vertebrae for each of their new Scouts. Clan Sorrgol's is formed from a finely tooled galvanite alloy. Clan Raukaan is black Sigilanium veined with Theldrite circuitry. The chain serves as a reminder to the wearer of the bonds that bind the chapter together. Some believe it is to echo the chains that Ferrus bound around the Iron Hands' hearts.

虽然许多钢铁之手像其他战团一样使用头骨钉来表示服役时长,但近年来,一些人开始使用一种奇怪的义体,称为熔炉之链。熔炉之链是一系列义体椎骨。每一块新椎骨都表明被另一个氏族接纳。每家连队都有自己的链接,所以链中的所有链接都是不同的。例如,多弗克氏族使用普通钢为他们的每个新侦察兵形成第一块椎骨。索古罗氏族的由精心加工的镀锌合金制成。劳坎氏族是黑色的印记,上面有月银回路。这条链提醒佩戴者将这一战团联系在一起的纽带。有人认为,这是为了呼应费鲁斯在钢铁之手心中所系的枷锁。

Possible Tech-Heresy 可能的技术异端

Adeptus Mechanicus Mech-wright Calymn Auros reported possible Iron Hands tech-heresy that he had found in the Jericho Reach. Calymn Auros wrote he had witnessed "terrifying biomechanical behemoths fusing man and machine into living weapons" that fought alongside the Iron Hands against the Stigmartus hordes in the Acheros Salient and sported their heraldry on their hulls. He claimed to have examined the burnt-out wreckage of another of these weapon-studded behemoths and he was convinced it was "animated by the essence of an Iron Hands Battle-Brother who had entirely shed every cell of his biological heritage, little more than pure hate and rage remaining to drive him ever onwards". Auros also claimed to have shared his findings with Inquisitor Calistair. Archmagos Zynth received the report but his reaction consisted only in ordering to send out mono-task servitors and a Secutor to the Cellebos Warzone and retrieve Calymn for adjustment as he believed him corrupted.

机械神教机械工匠卡利姆·奥罗斯报告称,他在杰里科河段发现了可能的钢铁之手技术异端。卡利姆·奥罗斯写道,他目睹了“可怕的生物机械巨兽将人和机械融合成活生生的武器”,这些巨兽与钢铁之手并肩作战,对抗阿彻罗斯突出部的圣痕军部落,并在船体上展示了他们的纹章。他声称已经检查了另一个这些布满武器的庞然大物的烧毁残骸,他确信这是“钢铁之手战斗兄弟的本质所激发的,他完全抛弃了自己生物传统的每一个细胞,只剩下纯粹的仇恨和愤怒驱使他继续前进”。奥罗斯还声称与审判官卡莉斯塔分享了他的调查结果。大贤者津斯收到了报告,但他的反应只是下令向赛勒伯斯战区派遣单任务机仆和一名追击士,并回收卡利姆进行调整,因为他认为卡利姆已经腐化。

Strategy and Tactics 战略与战术

Between battles or on their warships while in the Warp, Iron Hands often spend time uploaded to cryo-pods, inloading tactical schematics and information. This aids the over-arching strategic hexamathic formulae that they deploy while on campaign known as the Calculus of Battle. This system seeks to break down wars to raw data and numbers, where enemy actions, logistics, casualties, and environmental elements can be predicted and balanced like an equation. Once a conclusion has been reached, the Iron Hands' nihilistic brutality translates well to war. When they attack, they do so without hesitation or mercy and will show little regard to the well-being of allies, as the Calculus of Battle has no factorial representation for civilian. Similarly, the Calculum Rationale gauges the necessary resources for any engagement and whether or not commitment to it is worthwhile.

在战斗之间或在亚空间的战舰上,钢铁之手经常花时间上传到冷冻舱,上传战术示意图和信息。这有助于他们在战役中部署的总体战略六元方案,即战争筹算。该系统旨在将战争分解为原始数据和数字,可以像方程式一样预测和平衡敌人的行动、后勤、伤亡和环境因素。一旦得出结论,钢铁之手的虚无主义残暴很好地转化为战争。当他们发动攻击时,他们会毫不犹豫或毫不留情地这样做,并且几乎不会考虑盟友的安全,且战争筹算对平民没有因子表示。同样,理性计算会评估任何一场战役所需的必要资源,并判断投入此战是否具有价值。

This ruthlessness extends even their own Battle-Brothers, who will be coldly sacrificed to achieve an objective should it be necessary to achieve a victory of worth greater than the cost expended. This does not deter warriors of the Iron Hands however. Iron Hands fear no death and view injury in battle as something that should be sought after instead of shunned.

这种无情甚至延伸到了他们自己的战斗兄弟身上,如果有必要取得比花费的成本更大的胜利,他们将为实现目标而冷酷地牺牲。然而,这并没有阻止钢铁之手的战士。钢铁之手不怕死,认为战斗中的受伤是应该追求而不是回避的。

The Iron Hands rarely commit to a campaign unless overwhelming victory is all but guaranteed. To that end, they employ Adeptus Mechanicus Tech-Priests known as the Magi Calculi whose job it is to analyse data and ascribe to it strategic worth and likelihood of victory. However, the Iron Council can overrule the decisions of the Magi Calculi, as seen when Kardan Stronos disregarded their conclusions and joined Roboute Guilliman's Indomitus Crusade anyway.

钢铁之手很少承诺战役,除非压倒性的胜利几乎可以保证。为此,他们使用了被称为演算士的机械神教技术神甫,他们的工作是分析数据,并赋予其战略价值和胜利的可能性。然而,钢铁议会可以推翻演算士的决定,正如卡丹·斯特罗诺斯无视他们的结论并加入罗伯特·基里曼的不屈远征一样。

Gene-seed 基因种子

The Iron Hands exhibit no physical flaws that can be traced back to their gene-seed, but it is possible that their extreme contempt for weakness in themselves and others may actually be due to an unidentified psychological flaw carried by their gene-seed. Being Space Marines, the Iron Hands already have superior physiology, and the bionics which they embrace do little to improve on it. Thus, the Iron Hands may suffer from body dysmorphia.

钢铁之手没有任何可以追溯到他们基因种子的身体缺陷,但他们对自己和他人弱点的极端蔑视可能实际上是由于他们基因种子携带的一种未知的心理缺陷。作为星际战士,钢铁之手已经有了优越的生理,他们所采用的仿生对其几乎没有改善。因此,钢铁之手可能患有身体畸形。

The ritual of taking in the Gene-Seed of the Iron Hands is known as the Taking of the Soulsteel. During the ritual, Neophytes purge themselves of fear, pain, and anger and repress mortal weakness with mantras of cold logic.

取钢铁之手基因种子的仪式被称为取魂钢。在仪式中,新进者用冷酷的逻辑咒语清除自己的恐惧、痛苦和愤怒,压制致命的弱点。

Organization 组织

Pre-Heresy 叛乱前

Under the leadership of Ferrus Manus, the Iron Hands were a highly structured military force with numerous tactical and strategic divisions of power. It was deliberately composed of a series of interlocking components, each of with had its own specializations, duties, and chain of commands. While the lowest levels of the Legion consisted of standard squads and vehicle squadrons grouped into companies, these part of a larger grouping of support and fleet elements dubbed Orders. Each Order had its own independent command, support and logistical network, armoury, and were often created specifically for a specific campaign or battle. While broadly equivalent to the specialized battalions seen in other Legions, the Orders were more concrete in composition and independent in operation. Multiple orders were then formed into a single larger Clan groupings based upon the feudal traditions of Medusa. While today the Iron Hands consist of ten clans, during the Great Crusade and Heresy era many more existed.

在费鲁斯·马努斯的领导下,钢铁之手是一支高度结构化的军事力量,拥有众多战术和战略力量部门。它故意由一系列相互关联的组件组成,每个组件都有自己的专业、职责和指挥链。虽然军团的最低级别由标准小队和载具中队组成,这些中队分为连队,但这些是被称为修会的更大的支援和舰队部分的一部分。每个修会都有自己独立的指挥、支援和后勤网络、军械库,通常是专门为特定的战役或战斗而创建的。虽然与其他军团中的特种营大致相当,但这些修会的组成更加具体,行动更加独立。然后,根据美杜莎的封建传统,多个修会组成了一个更大的氏族团体。虽然今天钢铁之手由十个氏族组成,但在大远征和叛乱时代,存在着更多的氏族。

Organization of a typical modern-day Iron Hands Clan 平常现代钢铁之手氏族的组织

As with the Iron Hands Chapter of today, each Legion Clan had a distinct character and were linked to specific equivalents amongst Medusa's nomadic barbarian population which served as their recruitment base. These Clans were referred to as "pocket legions" and were fully self-sufficient, self-supplied, and overseen by a Chieftain in the form of a Praetor equivalent be it Iron Father, Clan-Commander, Iron Lord, etc.. Each Clan vied against one another for glory and the favour of their Primarch. Individual warriors who failed their Clan and Primarch would be cast out to die as an Immortal.

与今天的钢铁之手战团一样,每个军团氏族都有自己独特的特点,并与美杜莎游牧野蛮人口中的特定对等群体联系在一起,这些游牧野蛮人口是他们的招募基地。这些氏族被称为“口袋军团”,完全自立,自给自足,由一位相当于执政官的酋长监督,无论是铁父、氏族指挥官、钢铁领主等。每个氏族都为荣耀和原体的青睐而相互竞争。未能通过氏族和原体的个别战士将被驱逐,以不朽者的身份死去。

While the Heresy-era Iron Hands organization was known as a crushing leviathan, it was also brutally intractable and slow to change. Individual commanders, while highly independent, were also single-minded in their pursuit of strategic objectives and a desire to please their Clan and Primarch. This came to head after the Drop Site Massacre and the death of Ferrus Manus, where the remaining survivors of the Legion were consumed by a quest for vengeance against the traitors that became a bitter psychosis.

虽然叛乱时期的钢铁之手组织被称为一个毁灭性的庞然大物,但它也极其棘手,变化缓慢。个别指挥官虽然高度独立,但也一心一意地追求战略目标,并渴望取悦他们的氏族和原体。在登陆点大屠杀和费鲁斯·马努斯牺牲后,这一点变得尤为突出,在那里,军团剩下的幸存者被对叛徒的复仇所吞噬,这成为了一种痛苦的精神错乱。

The Iron Hands Legion maintained a particularly large and sophisticated arsenal of war engines - especially tanks and Dreadnoughts. Their numbers of such vehicles was greater than any other Legion save perhaps the Iron Warriors. Thanks to their long-standing ties to the Mechanicum and technical aptitude of its own members, the Legion was easily able to maintain this vast arsenal as well as a large number of advanced Terminator suits. It also had access numerous bionic and cybernetic implants rarely seen outside of the ranks of the Machine Cult. The most arcane and destructive technologies at the Legion's disposal were sealed away at the order of Ferrus, most infamously the Vaults of Mimir.

钢铁之手军团拥有一个特别庞大和复杂的战争引擎库,尤其是坦克和无畏。他们的这种载具的数量比任何其他军团都多,也许除了钢铁勇士。由于他们与机械教的长期联系和自身成员的技术才能,军团很容易就能维持这个庞大的武器库以及大量先进的终结者盔甲。它还可以使用许多在机械教派之外很少见到的仿生和智控植入物。军团掌握的最神秘和最具破坏性的技术被费鲁斯下令封存,其中最著名的是密米尔秘库。

Post-Heresy 叛乱后

Today the Iron Hands are organised in a similar fashion to a Codex Chapter but with several distinct differences: The Chapter still consists of ten "Clan Companies" based on the Clans of Medusa which are composed in a fashion comparable to that of a Codex Battle Company. Each Clan Company is an independent entity, responsible for its own recruitment and equipment acquisition. Each Clan also possesses a colossal mobile fortress, a Land Behemoth.

今天,钢铁之手的组织方式与圣典战团相似,但有几个明显的不同:战团仍然由十个基于美杜莎氏族的“氏族连队”组成,其组成方式与圣典战斗连队相当。每个氏族连队都是一个独立的实体,负责自己的招募和装备采购。每个氏族还拥有一个巨大的移动堡垒,一个陆地巨兽。

The Great Clan Council 大氏族议会

Each Clan Company chooses a member to serve in the ruling body of the Chapter, the Great Clan Council (also called the Iron Council). The organizational structure of the Iron Hands changed after the Horus Heresy and the death of Ferrus Manus; it was decided that no single warrior should be the leader of the Iron Hands. Instead, the Clan Captains and most revered warriors of the Legion formed the Iron Council. Those who sit on the Council are known as Iron Fathers, and the body has guided the Iron Hands ever since. Due to the reverence for the mechanical amongst Iron Hands, the council members are often Venerable Dreadnoughts. Precisely forty-one Iron Fathers sit on the Iron Council.

每个氏族连队都会选择一名成员在战团的统治机构——大氏族议会(也称为钢铁议会)任职。荷鲁斯叛乱和费鲁斯·马努斯去世后,钢铁之手的组织结构发生了变化;决定不让任何一个战士成为钢铁之手的领袖。相反,氏族连长和最受尊敬的军团战士组成了钢铁议会。那些坐在议会里的人被称为铁父,从那以后,议会一直在指导钢铁之手。由于钢铁之手对机械的敬畏,议会成员往往是神圣无畏。确切地说,有41位铁父在钢铁议会任职。

The Iron Council elects the Chapter Master of the Iron Hands, as unlike in most other Chapters the holder does not bear the title for life.

钢铁议会选举钢铁之手的战团长,因为与大多数其他战团不同,持有者不会终身拥有这个头衔。

Clan Companies 氏族连队

The bulk of the Chapter is divided into ten Clan Companies. The Clan Companies are based off of the historic Clans of Medusa, which are in a state of constant war with one another as well as the harsh elements of their world. Though Ferrus Manus long ago united Medusa under his rule, the Iron Hands make no effort to end the fighting between the clans. They view the constant warfare as weeding out the weak and shaping strong recruits for the Chapter. Each of the ten current Clan Companies continues to utilize the symbols and traditions associated with their corresponding Clan on Medusa. As should be of little surprise, the Iron Hands have a reputation for aloofness among the people of Medusa. Indeed, they wish to forget the fragile, contemptible flesh that once they were. This has never been more true than with the energies of the Great Rift blazing down. Deliberate contact between the Chapter and the clans who supply its recruits are few and fleeting outside of tithing season. Even when Dark Eldar raiders make planetfall in search of slaves, the Chapter seldom intervenes, reasoning that the attacks will serve to temper the Medusans to greatness.

战团的大部分成员分为十个氏族连队。氏族连队以历史悠久的美杜莎氏族为基础,这些氏族之间以及他们世界中的残酷成员都处于不断的战争状态。尽管费鲁斯·马努斯很久以前就将美杜莎统一在他的统治之下,但钢铁之手并没有努力结束氏族之间的战斗。他们认为不断的战争是为了淘汰弱者,为战团培养强大的新兵。目前的十个氏族连队中的每一个都继续使用与美杜莎相应氏族相关的符号和传统。毫不奇怪,钢铁之手在美杜莎人民中以冷漠著称。事实上,他们希望忘记曾经脆弱、可鄙的肉体。随着大裂隙的能量熊熊燃烧,这一点从未如此真实。在什一税时期之外,战团与提供新兵的氏族之间的刻意接触很少,而且转瞬即逝。即使黑暗灵族袭击者降落行星寻找奴隶,战团也很少介入,理由是这些袭击将有助于将美杜莎人磨练成伟大的人物。

An Iron Hand battling Orks 钢铁之手与欧克作战

Each Clan is a self-contained unit not dissimilar to a Codex Astartes Battle Company; however, each Clan is responsible for its own recruiting and maintenance of its motorpool. Each Clan, in addition, possesses a mobile Land Behemoth fortress monastery on Medusa which they consider their base of operations. Some materials is traded between the Clans, but still they are often in open competition with one another. They are known to compete politically and even sometimes come to blows. The Clan system developed as a reaction to the Drop Site Massacre during the Horus Heresy when large numbers of Iron Hands Captains were slain, creating confusion among the collective Iron Hands ranks. The Chapter's fleet disposition is unknown.

每个氏族都是一个自给自足的单位,与圣典阿斯塔特战斗连队没有什么不同;然而,每个氏族都负责自己的招募和维护其机械。此外,每个氏族都在美杜莎拥有一个移动的陆地巨兽堡垒修道院,他们认为这是他们的行动基地。有些材料在部落之间交易,但他们仍然经常相互公开竞争。众所周知,他们在政治上相互竞争,有时甚至会发生冲突。氏族制度的发展是对荷鲁斯叛乱期间的登陆点大屠杀的反应,当时大量钢铁之手连长被杀,在钢铁之手整体队伍中造成了混乱。战团的舰队部署尚不清楚。

Clans in the Iron Hands are more than simple companies, they are each distinct not only culturally but also in how they wage war and view their service to the Emperor: Clan Garrsak for instance values collective unity while Clan Vurgaan hoards captured enemy weaponry.

钢铁之手的氏族不仅仅是简单的连队,他们不仅在文化上,而且在如何发动战争和为帝皇服务方面都各不相同:例如,格拉萨克氏族重视集体团结,而沃尔甘氏族则囤积缴获的敌方武器。

While Clan Companies are fixed, their place within the Codex Astartes and Iron Hands organization is not. For instance, had it not been for the efforts of Iron Father Feirros on the Iron Council Clan Raukaan would have lost its status as the 3rd Company and may have instead been "demoted" to a Reserve Company.

虽然氏族连队是固定的,但他们在阿斯塔特圣典和钢铁之手组织中的地位却不是。例如,如果不是铁父费罗斯在钢铁议会对劳坎氏族的努力,它将失去第三连队的地位,并可能被“降级”为预备连。

Iron Fathers 铁父

The traditional Chaplains' role of other Chapters is fulfilled by Iron Fathers, specially trained Techmarines who serve to protect the faith of their brethren. Iron Fathers also sit on the Iron Council of the Chapter.

其他战团的传统牧师角色由铁父履行,铁父是受过专门训练的技术军士,他们致力于保护兄弟们的信仰。铁父也担任战团的钢铁议会成员。

Terminator Armour equipped Iron Hands Marine 钢铁之手终结者盔甲战士

Terminators and Veteran Sergeants 终结者和老兵军士

After the events of the Battle of Isstvan V the Iron Hands lost most of their veteran forces. Therefore, suits of Terminator armour are even more rare than normally is the case. Due to this the deployment of full Terminator Squads is also rare. However, sergeants are often equipped with suits of Terminator armour as the inspirational value they provide to their squads is invaluable.

伊斯塔万五号之战后,钢铁之手失去了大部分老兵。因此,终结者盔甲的战甲比平时更为罕见。因此,完整部署的终结者小队也很少见。然而,军士经常装备终结者盔甲,因为他们为小队提供的鼓舞人心的价值是无价的。

Recruitment 招募

Each of the Clan Companies of the Iron Hands is responsible for their own recruitment. These new recruits are taken from the nomadic Clans of Medusa. Only those of great physical and mental strength are recruited and during the recruitment candidates have their weaknesses purged from them. Regardless of origin, those that survive the initial selection process spend their first decade in Clan Dorrvok and train in the desolated proving grounds of Ooranus on Medusa. Even fewer survive this grueling process, and recruits are treated with extreme disregard. Infighting amongst the Aspirants and Initiates is common and even encouraged, with Iron Hands sergeants often stopping training exercises just to turn brothers on each other or enflame rivalries. Even when elevated to full Battle-Brother a Marines chance of survival improves little. Believing themselves to be weeding out the weak and unworthy, raw recruits are often given near-suicidal assignments that would usually be given to veterans in other Chapters.

钢铁之手的每个氏族连队都负责自己的招募。这些新兵来自美杜莎游牧部落。只有那些体力和脑力都很强的人才会被招募,在招募过程中,候选人的弱点会被清除。无论出身如何,那些在最初的选择过程中幸存下来的人在多弗克氏族度过了他们的第一个十年,并在美杜莎的欧拉努斯荒凉的试验场接受训练。在这个艰苦的过程中幸存下来的人更少,新兵受到的待遇也极其漠视。有志者和信徒之间的内讧很常见,甚至受到鼓励,钢铁之手军士经常停止训练演习,只是为了让兄弟们互相攻击或加剧竞争。即使晋升为战斗兄弟,星际战士的生存机会也几乎没有提高。新兵们相信自己是在淘汰弱者和不配的人,他们经常被分配到接近自杀的任务,而这些任务通常会在其他战团中分配给老兵。

Iron Hands battling Eldar 钢铁之手与灵族战斗

Due to their harsh training regimen and stubbornness in both attack and defense, only the strongest in the Chapter survive. Thus the Iron Hands are a top-heavy chapter with many veterans but less Scouts and Initiates. To maintain their strength, recruits are constantly sought after by Clan Iron Fathers within the Wastes of Medusa. Librarians are often recruited from Black Ships passing near Medusa.

由于他们严格的训练方案和在进攻和防守方面的固执,只有战团最强的人才能幸存下来。因此,钢铁之手是一个头重脚轻的战团,有许多老兵,但侦察兵和信徒较少。为了保持力量,美杜莎荒原内的氏族铁父们不断寻找新兵。智库经常从经过美杜莎附近的黑船上招募。

Trivia 琐事

Notes on Hierarchy 阶层体系说明

The exact commander of the Iron Hands has been fairly convoluted throughout publication history.

钢铁之手的确切指挥官在整个出版史上一直相当复杂。

  • The "Index Astartes" article in White Dwarf 262 states that the Chapter does not possess a Chapter Master but is instead led by the Great Clan Council, which is itself made up of revered representatives from each of the ten Clans. This is described as being a precaution against future heresy and a reflection of Ferrus Manus' teachings. A more current source, Imperial Armour - Volume 10, also confirms the existence of the Great Clan Council.

  • 白矮人262期中的“阿斯塔特索引”文章指出,该战团没有战团长,而是由大氏族议会领导,该议会本身由十个氏族中每个氏族的受人尊敬的代表组成。这被描述为对未来叛乱的预防措施,也是费鲁斯·马努斯教义的反映。更为现代的资料来源 帝国装甲-第10卷 也证实了大氏族议会的存在。

  • Apparently contradicting this, Codex: Space Marines (5th Edition) describes Kardan Stronos as Chapter Master of the Iron Hands. Also other, earlier sources describe an Inquisitorial official petitioning the Chapter Master of the Iron Hands for assistance during Abaddon the Despoiler's Thirteenth Black Crusade.

  • 显然与此相矛盾的是,圣典:星际战士(第5版)将卡丹·斯特罗诺斯描述为钢铁之手的战团长。还有其他更早的消息来源描述了一名审判官在掠夺者阿巴顿的第十三次黑色远征期间向钢铁之手战团长请求援助。

  • Later, Codex: Space Marines (6th Edition) describes the Chapter as being overseen by the Chapter Council and lacking a formal Chapter Master. However, Kardan Stronos is the first among peers on the council due to his reputation and instead serves as a de facto leader.

  • 后来,圣典:星际战士(第6版)将战团描述为由战团议会监督,缺乏正式的战团长。然而,卡丹·斯特罗诺斯因其声誉成为议会成员中的第一人,而且是事实上的领导者。

  • In Codex Supplement: Iron Hands (8th Edition) it is stated that Kardan Stronos exists as the official Chapter Master, but like his predecessors was elected by the Iron Council. It is stated that the Iron Hands Chapter Master does not serve for life.

  • 在圣典补充:钢铁之手(第8版)中,卡丹·斯特罗诺斯作为官方战团长存在,但与他的前任一样,他是由钢铁议会选举产生的。据说钢铁之手战团长不是终身的。
