The Night Lords were the VIII Legion of the original twenty Space Marine Legions. Their Primarch was Konrad Curze, also called the Night Haunter. The Legion turned traitor during the Horus Heresy, after which it fought its way across Imperial space in a bloody campaign that culminated with the death of Konrad Curze at the hands of an Imperial Assassin. Since the loss of their primarch the Night Lords have based themselves in the Eye of Terror and now operate as a fragmented terror force who seem to go to war only to slaughter or acquire material possessions.
午夜领主是最初的二十个星际战士军团中的第八军团。他们的原体是康拉德·科兹，也被称为午夜幽魂。在荷鲁斯叛乱期间，军团变成了叛徒，之后它在一场血腥的战役中穿越了帝国空域，最终康拉德·科兹被一名帝国刺客杀死。自从失去了他们的原体后，午夜领主就以恐惧之眼为基地，现在作为一支分散的恐怖力量运作，他们似乎只是为了屠杀或获得物质财富而开战。

While most certainly Chaos Space Marines, the Night Lords scorn all forms of faith and respect only temporal and material power; indeed, many of them consider themselves free of the taint of Chaos and despise those they deem to be so corrupted.
当然，混沌星际战士，午夜领主蔑视一切形式的信仰，只尊重世俗权力和物质力量；事实上，他们中的许多人认为自己没有混沌的污染，鄙视那些他们认为如此堕落的人。
Homeworld 家园世界
The homeworld of the Night Lords was Nostramo, a world of perpetual night. Plagued by both systematic corruption and endemic violence, Nostraman society was radically altered and pacified by the actions of the Night Haunter, at least for a time. Eventually however, conditions on the planet backslid to the point that the VIII Legion's Primarch, Konrad Curze, ordered its destruction. Nostramo has not existed as a world for ten thousand years, although traces of its once presence can still be found by those who know where to look.
午夜领主的家园世界是诺斯特拉莫，一个永恒黑夜的世界。受到系统腐败和地方暴力的困扰，诺斯特拉莫社会至少在一段时间内被午夜幽魂的行为彻底改变和安抚。然而，最终，行星上的情况倒退到了第八军团的原体康拉德·柯兹下令摧毁它的地步。诺斯特拉莫作为一个世界已经存在了一万年，尽管那些知道去哪里寻找的人仍然可以找到它曾经存在的痕迹。

History 历史
Formation 形成
Originally known as the VIIIth Legion, the Night Lords first recruits were from the stinking ancient prisons of Terra. Here the children of prisoners were raised in the dark and among death. These pale "Night's Children" made perfect Astartes recruits. The Legion saw its first use when the Emperor deployed them against the Terran Saragorn Enclave, who despite having surrendered to the Imperium during the Unification Wars, still continued banned psy-breeding experiments. The Emperor's retribution on the Enclave was viciously carried out by the VIIIth Legion.
最初被称为第八军团，午夜领主的第一批新兵来自臭气熏天的泰拉古老监狱。在这里，囚犯的孩子在黑暗和死亡中长大。这些苍白的“午夜之子”是阿斯塔特完美的新兵。当帝皇将军团部署到泰拉萨拉贡飞地时，军团首次看到了它的用途，尽管在统一战争期间向帝国投降，但泰拉萨拉贡飞地仍继续进行禁止的灵能繁殖实验。帝皇对飞地的报复是由第八军团恶意实施的。
Great Crusade era Night Lords Astartes 大远征时期午夜领主阿斯塔特
The Lord of the Night 午夜领主
After his discovery by the Emperor, Konrad Curze underwent a period of training under the tutelage of Fulgrim, primarch of the Emperor's Children, who introduced him to not only wider military strategems, but also Imperial culture, specifically that of Terra itself. Following this period, Curze was placed at the head of his legion, who are known to have adapted to his philosophies quickly and with diligence, as well as intelligently transforming the primarch's beliefs into military tactics. Curze's experiences upon Nostramo in his self-appointed role as the Night Haunter had instilled in him the philosophy of terror, whereby he had inspired obedience to the law by fear of extreme punishment. This societal philosophy translated into the military tactics of swift, sudden and decisive strikes often carried out to excess, as well as making sure the enemy knew who had hit them. The Night Lords therefore developed a practice of regularly using excessive force to defeat their enemies, as well as publicizing these actions so that other potential transgressors would be well aware of what could happen to them should they break faith with the Imperium.
在被帝皇发现后，康拉德·科兹在帝皇之子的原体福格瑞姆的指导下接受了一段时间的训练，福格瑞姆不仅向他介绍了更广泛的军事战略，还介绍了帝国文化，特别是泰拉本身的文化。在这段时期之后，科兹被任命为他的军团的军团长，众所周知，他们迅速而勤奋地适应了他的哲学，并明智地将原体的信仰转化为军事战术。科兹在诺斯特拉莫自封的午夜幽魂的角色中的经历向他灌输了恐怖哲学，他通过恐惧极端惩罚来激发对法律的服从。这种社会哲学转化为迅速、突然和果断的军事战术，这些战术往往过度实施，并确保敌人知道是谁袭击了他们。因此，午夜领主养成了一种习惯，即经常过度使用武力击败敌人，并公开这些行为，以便其他潜在的违法者能够很好地意识到，如果他们对帝国失信，他们会发生什么。
This approach made the Night Lords well-suited for dealing with worlds brought into the Imperium during the Crusade who were subsequently lax in achieving full compliance, or who even threatened to rebel. They were heavily utilized as a force that solidifed the Imperium's grip after initial pacification was achieved; as this sort of endeavor mirrored what Curze did as the Night Haunter on Nostramo, the Night Lords excelled at reinforcing the Emperor's will - through fear. To increase their effectiveness in this regard, Curze encouraged the Night Lords to decorate their power armour with death imagery. The legion soon gained a tremendously terrifying reputation, one that would cause many planetary rulers to immediately make good any outstanding tithes, make sure Imperial laws were being followed and sometimes would entirely stop an incipient rebellion at the mere rumour of Night Lord retaliation.
这种方法使午夜领主非常适合处理远征期间被带入帝国的世界，这些世界随后在实现完全合规方面松懈，甚至威胁要叛乱。他们被大量用作一种部队，在最初的和平实现后巩固帝国的控制；由于这种努力反映了科兹作为诺斯特拉莫的午夜幽魂所做的一切，午夜领主擅长通过恐惧来强化帝皇的意志。为了提高他们在这方面的效率，科兹鼓励午夜领主用死亡意象装饰他们的动力盔甲。该军团很快获得了极其可怕的声誉，这导致许多行星统治者立即弥补任何未偿还的什一税，确保帝国法律得到遵守，有时甚至会在午夜领主报复的谣言中完全阻止初期的叛乱。
As the Great Crusade wore on and the Night Lords began to slowly receive replacement Marines from Nostramo (which had meantime fallen back to its pre-Night Haunter ways), the criminal element of Nostraman society, including murderers and rapists, began to fill the ranks. Much of this was due to the instability of Nostramo's and the return of the old nobility in the absence of Curze, who emptied their worlds jails for the Legion in order to keep the best warriors for their own interests. This, in addition to Curze's probable insanity, initiated a downward spiral for the Legion.
随着大远征的进行，午夜领主开始慢慢从诺斯特拉莫那里接收替代星际战士（在此期间，诺斯特拉莫已经回到了午夜幽魂之前的方式），诺斯特拉莫社会的犯罪分子，包括杀人犯和强奸犯，开始填补队伍。这在很大程度上是由于诺斯特拉莫的不稳定，以及在科兹缺席的情况下，旧贵族的回归，科兹为军团清空了他们世界的监狱，以便为自己的利益留住最好的战士。这，再加上科兹可能的精神错乱，引发了军团的螺旋式下降。
Descent 下降
While it may be possible that the Emperor tacitly or even secretly authorized the Night Lords' excessive tactics, the legion was eventually questioned over its increasingly extreme sanctioning of Imperial citizenry, especially by some of the other primarchs, a brotherhood that Curze had never felt a part of. Apart, that was, from Fulgrim. When his brothers began to turn on him, Curze turned to his tutor and supposed friend for counsel and confession. A sufferer of prophetic visions apparently all of his life, Curze told Fulgrim of his own great fear; that he had forseen the Emperor killing him and that the Legiones Astartes would endlessly battle each other in a perpetual civil war. Fulgrim, shocked and worried by Curze's behaviour and mental state, informed their brother Rogal Dorn (who was present in the same warzone as Curze and Fulgrim at the time) of these visions and claims. Dorn then confronted Curze over what he saw as this dishonourable besmirchment of the Emperor's name; the conversation came to blows, with Curze beating his brother bloody. Subsequently accepting being placed under arrest for this action, Curze entered confinement to await the judgement of the other Primarchs.
虽然帝皇可能默许甚至秘密授权午夜领主的过度战术，但该军团最终因其对帝国公民的日益极端的制裁而受到质疑，尤其是其他一些原体，让寇兹从未感受到兄弟情谊。除此之外，那是来自福格瑞姆的。当他的兄弟们开始背叛他时，科兹转向他的导师和所谓的朋友寻求建议和忏悔。科兹一生都在遭受预言性幻象的折磨，他告诉福格瑞姆他自己的巨大恐惧；他预见到帝皇会杀了他，阿斯塔特军团将在一场永恒的内战中无休止地相互战斗。福格瑞姆对科兹的行为和精神状态感到震惊和担忧，向他们的兄弟罗格·多恩（当时与科兹和福格瑞姆在同一战区）通报了这些幻象和说法。多恩随后质问科兹，他认为这是对帝皇名誉的侮辱；谈话变得激烈起来，科兹血腥地殴打他的兄弟。随后，科兹接受了因这一行动而被逮捕的事实，并进入监狱等待其他原体的判决。
Such a verdict was never made, as before a conclave of the primarchs could be held Konrad Curze, after hearing that crime and corruption had returned to Nostramo in his absence, decided to refuse the entire process and escaped from detention, slaying members of the Imperial Fists and Emperor's Children in the process. He swiftly rejoined his legion and took his fleet to Nostramo, the planet that had betrayed him, where he ordered all the ships in his fleet to fire upon the single weakness in the planet's adamantium crust, causing it to be destroyed.
这样的判决从未做出过，因为在原体的秘密会议召开之前，康拉德·科兹在得知犯罪和腐败在他缺席的情况下又回到了诺斯特拉莫后，决定拒绝整个过程并逃离拘留，在此过程中杀害了帝国之拳和皇帝之子。他迅速重新加入了他的军团，并将他的舰队带到了背叛他的行星诺斯特拉莫，在那里，他命令舰队中的所有战舰向行星上的一个弱点开火，导致其被摧毁。
Although the Night Lords had gone rogue, the Horus Heresy erupted before anything could be done about it.
尽管午夜领主已经变得叛乱，但荷鲁斯叛乱在采取任何行动之前就爆发了。
The Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱
Despite having gone rogue, the Night Lords were one of the seven Legions dispatched to destroy the gathered Sons of Horus, World Eaters, Death Guard, and Emperor's Children at the Isstvan system. While records do not clearly explain why an apparent rogue legion was tasked to join the loyalist Astartes force charged with exterminating the traitors, at least one account puts forth the view that the Imperial justice system was both so slow and so unsure of how to deal with the Night Lords that the Imperial military commanders issued the order anyway, in their hurry to assemble a powerful force with which to crush Horus.
尽管已经叛乱，但午夜领主还是被派去摧毁聚集在伊斯塔万星系的荷鲁斯之子、吞世、死亡守卫和皇帝之子的七个军团之一。虽然记录没有明确解释为什么一个明显的叛乱军团被派往加入负责消灭叛徒的忠诚的阿斯塔特部队，但至少有一种说法认为，帝国审判系统既缓慢又不确定如何处理午夜领主，以至于帝国军务指挥官还是发布了命令，急于组建一支强大的部队来粉碎荷鲁斯。
Konrad Curze and the Night Lords during the Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯叛乱时期的康拉德·科兹与午夜领主
Upon Isstvan V, the Night Lords, alongside the Word Bearers, Iron Warriors, and the Alpha Legion, turned on the loyalist Legions who had arrived earlier and took part in the Dropsite Massacre. Upon decimating the Raven Guard, Iron Hands, and the Salamanders, the Night Lords returned to the galactic east and began an apparently unfocused genocidal campaign; most likely this was designed to stop any support from this area reaching Terra. Eventually, however, the Night Lords fleet was ambushed and badly mauled by the Dark Angels at the climax of the Thramas Crusade, with one fifth of the Legion confirmed destroyed. Worse still for the Night Lords, Curze himself had been badly injured and rendered comatose by Lion El'Jonson during the debacle, forcing Sevatar to take command of the Legion and organize a regrouping. Before his capture by the Dark Angels Sevatar would divide the fleet into six parts and order their commanders to scatter. Meanwhile, Curze was stranded aboard the Dark Angels flagship Invincible Reason, eluding capture and eventually escaping to Macragge.
在伊斯塔万五号，午夜领主与怀言者、钢铁勇士和阿尔法军团一起，攻击了早些时候抵达并参与登陆点大屠杀的忠诚军团。在摧毁暗鸦守卫、钢铁之手和火蜥蜴后，午夜领主回到银河系东部，开始了一场显然没有重点的种族灭绝运动；最有可能的是，这是为了阻止来自该地区的任何支援到达泰拉。然而，最终，在萨拉玛斯远征的高潮，午夜领主舰队遭到了黑暗天使的伏击和严重袭击，五分之一的军团被证实被摧毁。更糟糕的是，在溃败中，科兹本人受了重伤，被莱昂·艾尔庄森昏迷，迫使赛维塔指挥军团并组织重新集结。在他被黑暗天使俘虏之前，赛维塔将舰队分为六个部分，并命令他们的指挥官分散。与此同时，科兹被困在黑暗天使旗舰无敌理性号上，躲过了抓捕，最终逃到了马库拉格。
Meanwhile the splinter fleets of Night Lords forces scattered during Thramas continued to wreak havoc across Ultima Segmentum. One notable example was the Battle of Sotha, where Night Lords under the command of Krukesh and Gendor Skraivok attempted to secure the xenos device known as the Pharos from Imperium Secundus. Later a renewed power struggle to determine the future of the Legion erupted aboard the Nightfall, with Curze's former Equerry Shang wanting to continue the search for the Primarch and become reaving warbands. However Shang was slain by Gendor Skraivok, who proclaimed that he intended to join with Horus and push on Terra.
与此同时，萨拉玛斯期间分散的午夜领主部队的分裂舰队继续在极限星域肆虐。一个值得注意的例子是索萨战役，在那里，克鲁凯什和詹多·斯卡莱沃克指挥下的午夜领主试图从第二帝国手中夺取被称为法罗斯的异型装置。后来，一场决定军团未来的新的权力斗争在夜幕降临号上爆发，科兹的前侍从官尚希望继续寻找原体，成为劫掠战帮。然而，尚被詹多·斯卡莱沃克杀害，后者宣称他打算加入荷鲁斯并向泰拉推进。
On Macragge, Curze became the target of a planet-wide hunt by the Dark Angels, whose primarch Lion El'Jonson had been placed in charge of military and security in Roboute Guilliman's Imperium Secundus. The Lion eventually tracked down and beat Curze into submission, after which he became a prisoner of the Lion, Guilliman and Sanguinius. When the trio departed Imperium Secundus with their Legions to make a push for Terra, they took Curze with them, but Sanguinius eventually decided to dispose of him by freezing him in a stasis coffin and ejecting it into deep space. Curze was consequently absent from the Battle of Terra. However, elements of the Night Lords scattered by Sevatar as well as those under Skraivok joined with Horus' main fleet and took part in the siege.
在马库拉格，科兹成为了黑暗天使在全球范围内狩猎的目标，黑暗天使的原体莱昂·艾尔庄森被任命为罗伯特·基里曼的第二帝国的军事和安全负责人。莱昂最终追踪并击败了科兹，使其屈服，之后他成为了莱昂、吉利曼和圣吉列斯的囚犯。当三人带着他们的军团离开第二帝国去前往泰拉时，他们带走了科兹，但圣吉列斯最终决定通过将他冷冻在一个停滞的棺材中并将其驱逐到深空来处置他。因此，科兹没有参加泰拉之战。然而，被赛维塔分散的午夜领主以及斯凯拉沃克手下的午夜领主加入了荷鲁斯的主舰队，并参与了围城。
During the siege of the Imperial Palace, Gendor Skraivok unwisely challenged Raldoron, First Captain of the Blood Angels, to a duel atop the palace walls. Raldoron easily defeated Skraivok and hurled him from the walls. Crippled by the fall, Skraivok allowed a daemon to possess his body and instantly became a helpless prisoner in his own flesh. (He would re-emerge millennia later a daemon prince). In his absence, a Night Lord named Krostovok took command, though the extent of his authority is unclear, as by this point the legion had devolved into individualistic killers caught up in the carnage.
在皇宫被围攻期间，詹多·斯卡莱沃克不明智地挑战了圣血天使第一连长拉多隆，在皇宫墙壁上决斗。拉多隆轻松击败了斯凯拉沃克，并将他从墙上扔了下来。由于摔落而瘫痪，斯凯拉沃克允许一个恶魔占据他的身体，并立即成为自己肉体中无助的囚犯。（数千年后，他将重新成为恶魔王子）。在他缺席的情况下，一位名叫克罗斯托沃克的午夜领主接管了指挥权，尽管他的权力范围尚不清楚，因为到目前为止，军团已经沦为卷入大屠杀的个人主义杀手。
Horus Heresy Aftermath 荷鲁斯叛乱余波
Upon Horus's defeat, the Night Lords continued their bloody pogrom upon the Galactic East. While nearly every other Legion had been decimated in the fighting and all the other traitor Legions had begun retreating to the Eye of Terror, the Night Lords legion remained unified and retained the bulk of their pre-Heresy numbers. This heavily concerned the High Lords of Terra, who debated what could be done to cease their predations. Meanwhile the old base of the Night Lords, the Nostramo Sector, was scoured by an unknown enemy.
荷鲁斯战败后，午夜领主继续对银河系东部进行血腥的大屠杀。虽然几乎所有其他军团都在战斗中被摧毁，所有其他叛徒军团都开始撤退到恐惧之眼，但午夜领主军团仍然保持统一，并保留了他们叛乱之前的大部分人数。这让泰拉的高领主们非常担忧，他们就如何停止掠夺进行了辩论。与此同时，午夜领主的旧基地诺斯特拉莫星区被一个未知的敌人洗劫一空。
Night Lords Space Marine 午夜领主星际战士
This eventually led to Konrad Curze being assassinated by a Callidus Assassin. Curze had visions of this event all his life and therefore chose to allow the assassin to kill him on the world of Tsagualsa, where the Night Lords had built a fortress of living flesh. Curze felt that this assassination vindicated his philosophy of life and every action he had taken in enacting it. Before his death, Curze left strict orders that the assassin was to be allowed to carry out her mission and escape, as well as apparently passing leadership to the Talonmaster Zso Sahaal, First Captain of the legion. These orders were not fully carried out.
这最终导致康拉德·科兹被卡利都斯刺客暗杀。科兹一生都在想象这一事件，因此选择让刺客在察古尔萨世界杀死他，那里的午夜领主建造了一座活者的血肉堡垒。科兹认为这次暗杀证明了他的人生哲学和他在实施这一哲学时所采取的每一个行动都是正确的。在他死去之前，科兹留下了严格的命令，允许刺客执行任务并逃跑，并显然将领导权交给了军团的第一连长利爪大师索尔·萨哈尔。这些命令没有得到充分执行。
Refusing to allow the assassin to escape, the Night Lord named the Soul Hunter, an apothecary of the 10th Company, pursued her with intent to kill - a solo pursuit that was joined by a significant portion of the legion's senior officers when it transpired that the assassin had also looted several of Curze's possessions believed bequeathed by him to the legion's command cadre. Chief amongst these officers was the heir-apparent Zso Sahaal, who succeeded in boarding the assassin's vessel and retrieving the Corona Nox, a symbol of Curze's authority he believed was now to be his. However, Sahaal's own ship was attacked by Eldar raiders almost immediately, so he returned to it and vanished into the Warp, not to be seen again for almost ten thousand years. As for the Soul Hunter, he slew the assassin in the manner of the Night Lords.
午夜领主拒绝让刺客逃跑，于是第10连队的药剂师灵魂猎手追捕她，意图杀死她 — 当刺客还掠夺了科兹的几件财产时，军团的大部分高级军官也加入了这场单独的追捕，据信这些财产是他留给军团指挥干部的。这些军官中的首领是法定继承者索尔·萨哈尔，他成功登上了刺客的船并取回了夜之王冠，这是他认为现在属于他的科兹权威的象征。然而，萨哈尔的船几乎立刻遭到了灵族袭击者的袭击，所以他回到船上，消失在亚空间中，在近一万年的时间里再也没有出现过。至于灵魂猎手，他以午夜领主的方式杀死了刺客。
Now without a leader, the Night Lords eventually fragmented into disparate warbands largely built around their original legion company structure and relocated to the Eye of Terror. Though various individuals would try to claim leadership of the entire legion, such as Zso Sahaal and Decimus, none were ever able to reunite the broken legion.
现在没有了领导者，午夜领主最终分裂成不同的战帮，主要围绕他们最初的军团连队结构建立，并搬迁到恐惧之眼。尽管各种各样的人试图声称领导整个军团，如索尔·萨哈尔和德西莫斯，但没有人能够重新团结破碎的军团。
Night Lords shoulder symbol 午夜领主肩甲标志
In Midnight Clad 午夜覆盖
The Night Lords have operated as raiding forces ever since, conducting terror raids in much the same style as they did whilst under the Imperial banner, only now fuelled by the hate and desperation brought on by the Long War, as well as the malign influences of Chaos. While the Warband of Krieg Acerbus is noted to be the largest and most chaotic in operation, many of the other warbands adhere more rigorously to the example set by their Primarch, deploying as organised Legiones Astartes and often with specific military goals.
从那以后，午夜领主一直作为突袭部队运作，以与帝国旗帜下几乎相同的方式进行恐怖袭击，只是现在受到长期战争带来的仇恨和绝望以及混沌的恶劣影响的推动。虽然克里格·阿瑟布斯的战帮被认为是行动规模最大、最混乱的，但许多其他战帮更严格地遵守其原体的榜样，作为有组织的阿斯塔特军团进行部署，并经常有特定的军事目标。
A particular goal of the Night Lords ever since the death of their Primarch at the hands of the assassin M'Shen has been the recovery of her pict-log of the assassination. The investigations of the Soul Hunter, then an important member of the Exalted's Warband, led to the discovery of a copy of this recording, which allowed the Night Lords legion to witness their primarch - to all intents and purposes, their father - for the first time in ten millennia. A copy of it was ordered disseminated throughout the legion.
自从他们的原体死于刺客穆’沈之手以来，午夜领主的一个特别目标就是恢复她暗杀的照片记录。灵魂猎手的调查，当时是崇高者战帮的重要成员，导致发现了这段录音的副本，这使得午夜领主军团在一万年来首次见证了他们的原体 — 实际上是他们的父亲。一份副本被命令在整个军团中传播。
The Great Rift 大裂隙
In the aftermath of the Great Rift's creation, the Night Lords' Warbands were in their element as they began launching more raids than ever before against an Imperium struck with fear and madness. They reaped a gory harvest from the Imperium's worlds and soon established small empires amongst those systems that had been cut off from the Emperor's Light. They struck an even more devastating blow against the Imperium when the Warbands used Daemonic pacts to establish a safe passage through the Great Rift near the Corinthe System. The passage was soon discovered by the Navigator Guilds and several Imperium fleets were sent through it, in a desperate attempt to reach the worlds of the Imperium Nihilus. However, when the fleets entered the tunnel through the Great Rift, the Night Lords attacked and captured dozens of Imperial vessels.
在大裂隙形成之后，午夜领主的战帮处于有利地位，他们开始对一个被恐惧和疯狂袭击的帝国发动比以往任何时候都多的袭击。他们从帝国的世界中获得了血腥的收获，并很快在那些与帝皇之光隔绝的星系中建立了小帝国。当战帮使用恶魔条约在科林斯星系附近建立一条穿过大裂隙的安全通道时，他们对帝国造成了更具毁灭性的打击。导航者行会很快发现了这条通道，并派遣了几支帝国舰队穿过它，绝望地试图到达帝国暗面的世界。然而，当舰队通过大裂隙进入隧道时，午夜领主袭击并占领了数十艘帝国船只。
Only a small force of Night Lords under Ramaghan Savasdus aided Abaddon in the War of Beasts on Vigilus. The bulk of the Night Lords were instead attacking Ulthwe near the Eye of Terror.
在警戒线的野兽战争中，只有拉马汉·萨瓦斯都率领的一小部分午夜领主帮助了阿巴顿。大部分午夜领主转而攻击恐惧之眼附近的乌斯维。

Organization 组织
Heresy-Era 叛乱时期
During the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy, the Night Lords followed standard Space Marine Legion organization, albeit with a lower amount of Breacher and siege units. They also maintained a command council of Captains known as the Kyroptera.
在大远征和荷鲁斯叛乱期间，午夜领主遵循了标准的星际战士组织，尽管有较少的破坏者和攻城单位。他们还维持着一个名为夜蝠议会的连长指挥议会。
Night Lords (Post-Heresy) 午夜领主（叛乱后）
During this time the Night Lords would deploy "Pacification Battalions". These were formations of heavy armor and shock infantry, including the infamous Terror Squads. These would deploy to isolated worlds with the sole goal of breaking whatever limited defences they could find, then promptly ravaging the planet and its population. This served as an example for others for the price of defiance. These units would first deploy their heavy armor en-masse and once the defenders were broken and scattered, infantry as well as Land Speeders and Bikers would hunt down the survivors. The purpose of these operations was to cull and cause as much collateral damage as possible. They rarely made any attempt to hold their ground, most often departing after their brief but vicious onslaught.
在此期间，午夜领主将部署“平定营”。这些是重型装甲和突击步兵的编队，包括臭名昭著的恐怖小队。这些将部署到独立世界，唯一的目标是打破他们能找到的任何有限的防御，然后迅速破坏行星及其人口。这为其他人树立了反抗的榜样。这些部队将首先大规模部署重型装甲，一旦防御者被击溃并分散，步兵以及兰德速攻艇和摩托骑士将追捕幸存者。这些行动的目的是扑杀并造成尽可能多的附带损害。他们很少试图守住阵地，大多数时候在短暂但恶毒的攻击后离开。
Among the few fully mechanized units of the Night Lords during this time was the 17th Chapter, known as the Bleak Cohort.
在此期间，午夜领主为数不多的全机械化部队中有第17战团，即荒凉大队。
The fleet of the Night Lords was composed of at least 800 ships, 200 capital and 600 torpedo-boats or frigates, by the time of the Horus Heresy. The fleet's flagship was the Glorianna-pattern battleship Nightfall.
到荷鲁斯叛乱时期，午夜领主的舰队由至少800艘战舰、200艘主力舰和600艘鱼雷舰或护卫舰组成。舰队的旗舰是荣光女王型战列舰夜幕将临号。

Post-Heresy 叛乱后
Since the death of their Primarch, Konrad Curze, the Night Lords have been shattered as an organized legion. Most have fled to the Eye of Terror and now operate as disparate warbands. These warbands are fractious and mercenary to the extreme, mostly contenting themselves with raiding, butchery, and plundering. Many have found their way into the service of other Chaos Lords, Daemon Princes, and even Xenos warlords. For as so long as there is a chance to inflict fear and ambush on others, Night Lords will naturally be drawn to a cause.
自从他们的原体康拉德·科兹死亡后，午夜领主作为一个有组织的军团已经瓦解。大多数人都逃到了恐惧之眼，现在作为不同的战帮运作。这些战帮性格暴躁，唯利是图，大多满足于突袭、屠杀和掠夺。许多人已经找到了为其他混沌领主、恶魔王子甚至异型军阀服务的途径。因为只要有机会对他人造成恐惧和伏击，午夜领主自然会被一项事业所吸引。
Night Lords long after the Heresy 叛乱后很久的午夜领主
This style of living has led many Night Lords to become disillusioned with their identity and lack of vision. Some have even turned in their colors for other armies, as was the case with Haarken and his Gloomtalons, which eventually joined Abaddon's Black Legion. However there is some recent hope as of the 13th Black Crusade that the Legion may be reunited once more by the prophetic figure known as Decimus.
这种生活方式导致许多午夜领主对自己的身份和缺乏远见感到失望。有些人甚至换了其他军队的颜色，就像哈肯和他的幽暗利爪一样，他们最终加入了阿巴顿的黑色军团。然而，自第13次黑色远征以来，最近有一些希望，军团可能会被被称为德西莫斯的预言中的人物再次团结起来。
Gene-seed 基因种子
The geneseed of the Night Lords apparently remains surprisingly pure, especially for a legion that has turned from service to the Emperor. It has been theorised that the Night Lords' avoidance of overt Chaos worship has spared their gene-seed from degradation, but even leaving this aside, the stability of it is notable even when compared to that of the loyalist First Founding Chapters.
午夜领主的基因显然仍然保持着令人惊讶的纯净，尤其是对于一个已经不为帝皇服务的军团来说。有理论认为，午夜领主避免公开的混沌崇拜使他们的基因种子免于退化，但即使抛开这一点，即使与忠诚派初次建军战团相比，它的稳定性也是值得注意的。
Having said that, Curze's genetic legacy does have particular effects on those so altered. Firstly, all Night Lords sport jet black eyes which have superior night vision and very pale skin (although quite how much of this comes from geneseed and how much from having a Nostraman background in those Night Lords from the doomed night-planet is unclear). Secondly, some of the Night Lords can sport varying degrees of Konrad Curze's precognition ability. In most, these are only momentary (or even subconscious) glimpses or intuitions about the future that can result in paranoid behaviour - for Curze and his children seem more inclined to forsee negative outcomes than any other type - but in the rare few full precogs amongst the Night Lords, these visions appear as painful, violent seizures that can last for many hours.
话虽如此，科兹的遗传遗产确实对那些如此改变的人有特殊的影响。首先，所有午夜领主都有一双乌黑的眼睛，有着优越的夜视能力和非常苍白的皮肤（尽管其中有多少来自基因种子，有多少来自那些来自注定要灭亡的午夜行星诺斯特拉莫背景的午夜领主尚不清楚）。其次，一些午夜领主可以表现出不同程度的康拉德·科兹的预知能力。在大多数情况下，这些只是对未来的短暂（甚至是潜意识）瞥见或直觉，可能会导致偏执行为 — 因为科兹和他的子嗣似乎比其他任何类型的人都更倾向于预见负面结果 — 但在午夜领主中为数不多的完整预判中，这些幻觉似乎是痛苦的、暴力的发作，可持续数小时。
The pale skin and black eyes of Night Lords First Captain Sevatar 午夜领主第一连长赛维塔苍白的皮肤和黑色的眼睛
These prophetic seizures can be quite detailed, as well as show many possible futures, allowing certain Night Lords warbands to pick and choose their next moves with advance information, although Imperial scholars hope that, like their gene-sire, the Night Lords precognitives are driven to choose to self-fulfill the negative futures they see due to the believed inherent mental instability possessed by the Curze line. Chaos Lords with the ability are said to bear the Night Haunter's Curse, and the most notable Night Lords precog is the aforementioned Soul Hunter, also known amongst his warband as The Prophet.
这些预言的发作可以非常详细，也可以显示许多可能的未来，允许某些午夜领主战士根据预先的信息选择他们的下一步行动，尽管帝国学者希望，就像他们的基因一样，午夜领主的预知能力被驱使选择自我实现他们所看到的负面未来，因为人们认为科兹具有内在的精神不稳定。据说具有这种能力的混沌领主会承受午夜幽魂的诅咒，最著名的午夜领主预言者是前面提到的灵魂猎手，在他的战帮中也被称为先知。
Culture 文化
Even before their betrayal of the Emperor, the Night Lords were naturally rebellious thanks to the conditions of their homeworld. The Night Lords were, and largely still are, misotheists. Possessed of no holy or unholy crusade, no unifying belief, martial creed or even bonds of honour, they exist merely to reap the spoils of their actions and terrify those they despise. Curze had been their sole source of unity and command, and without him the Legion ceased to function as a coherent unit. Most of them, though far from all, have little to no interest in Chaos itself and shun the company of those that do. Their use of terror tactics and fondness for piracy and salvage operations are the only common themes found amongst their disparate warbands.
即使在他们背叛帝皇之前，由于家园世界的条件，午夜领主也自然叛逆。午夜领主过去是，现在仍然是，厌恶有神论者。他们没有神圣或邪恶的远征，没有统一的信仰、军事信条，甚至没有荣誉的束缚，他们的存在只是为了收获他们行为的战利品，恐吓他们鄙视的人。科兹是他们团结和指挥的唯一来源，没有他，军团就无法作为一个连贯的单位运作。他们中的大多数人，虽然远非所有人，对混沌本身几乎没有兴趣，也避开了那些有兴趣的人。他们使用恐怖战术，喜欢劫掠和打捞行动，是他们不同的战帮中唯一的共同主题。
The desire to cause fear is central to what philosophy the Night Lords have. This has become ritualised, to the extent that each Night Lord goes out of their way to affect a terrifying appearance, having their armour heavily artificed with symbols and imagery of death and nightmare such as skulls, skeletons, winged maws, lightning etc. Any edge gained over an opponent - including psychological ones - is important to the Night Lords. As a result, it is not uncommon for Night Lords to own a variety of personal weapons (some ornate, ancient and very deadly) and to prize them highly. A key aspect of the Eighth Legion's terror tactics is that of dominance; the Night Lords believe in theoretically achieving it before beginning a combat action in the first place, and will go out of their way to gain a superior position over the enemy, using psychological warfare for some time before the attack, or stealth tactics in order to infiltrate the battlefield or set up in ambush. Night Lords, while not averse to enjoying the slaughter they cause, do not simply engage in battle for the enjoyment in brings; they only fight when they intend to win, and win easily and well. A Night Lord will attempt every underhanded trick he knows before engaging in a straightforward, stand-up fight.
制造恐惧的欲望是午夜领主哲学的核心。这已经变成了一种仪式，以至于每个午夜领主都会不遗余力地塑造一种可怕的外观，他们的盔甲上大量地装饰着死亡和噩梦的象征和图像，如头骨、骷髅、带翼的嘴、闪电等。任何超过对手的优势，包括心理优势，对午夜领主来说都很重要。因此，午夜领主拥有各种个人武器（有些华丽、古老且非常致命）并给予高度重视的情况并不少见。第八军团恐怖战术的一个关键方面是统御；午夜领主相信理论上在开始战斗行动之前就要实现这一目标，并会不遗余力地获得对敌人的优势地位，在攻击前一段时间内使用心理战，或采用隐形战术渗透战场或伏击。午夜领主虽然不反对享受他们造成的屠杀，但也不会简单地为享受带来的乐趣而战；他们只有在想赢的时候才会战斗，而且赢得很容易。午夜领主会尝试他所知道的每一个卑鄙的伎俩，然后再进行一场直截了当的单打独斗。
Recruitment 招募
During the Great Crusade Konrad Curze originally intended for the best and brightest of Nostramo to join the Night Lords. Curze considered the likes of Sevatar to exemplify the type of warriors he wanted in his Legion. However the embittered noble families of Nostramo deliberately sabotaged the Tithe to the Imperium, emptying their worlds jails and sending Curze instead an army of killers and thugs. The nobility kept the best warriors for themselves for use in gang warfare on Nostramo.
在大远征期间，康拉德·科兹最初打算让诺斯特拉莫中最优秀、最聪明的人加入午夜领主。科兹认为赛维塔这样的人是他想要的军团战士的典型代表。然而，心怀怨恨的诺斯特拉莫贵族家族故意妨碍了帝国什一税，清空了他们世界的监狱，并派遣了一支由杀手和暴徒组成的军队。贵族们为自己保留了最好的战士，以便在诺斯特拉莫的帮派战争中使用。
Night Lords battle Mandrakes 午夜领主与曼德拉战斗
Since the Heresy, it is known the Night Lords recruit through a variety of methods. One such method is collecting children-survivors of worlds they attack. Another is to pick up other Chaos Marines from other Warbands. However, they can also lose numbers the same way. Night Lords have also been known to abduct infants to help replace fallen Astartes and choose recruits from conquered worlds.
自叛乱以来，众所周知，午夜领主通过各种方法募兵。其中一种方法是收集他们攻击的世界的儿童幸存者。另一个是从其他战帮那里捡其他混沌星际战士。然而，它们也可能以同样的方式丢失成员。众所周知，午夜领主也会绑架婴儿，以帮助替换倒下的阿斯塔特，并从征服的世界中挑选新兵。
