The Sons of Horus, originally known as the Luna Wolves, were the XVI Legion of the original twenty Space Marine Legions. Their Primarch was Horus, known to them as Horus Lupercal, and to Imperial history as the instigator of the Horus Heresy, the first great Imperial civil war. Following the Horus Heresy most of the Sons of Horus escaped into the Eye of Terror, where they were largely shattered during the Legion Wars. Following the Battle of Harmony large amounts of the Legion were later absorbed into former First Captain Ezekyle Abaddon's Black Legion. A few warbands, later known as the "Thrice-Cursed Traitors", were able to remain independent and still operate as Sons of Horus.
荷鲁斯之子，最初被称为影月苍狼，是最初的二十个星际战士军团中的第十六军团。他们的原体是荷鲁斯，他们称之为牧狼神荷鲁斯，在帝国历史上，他是荷鲁斯叛乱的煽动者，这是第一次巨大的帝国内战。在荷鲁斯叛乱之后，荷鲁斯的大多数子嗣都逃到了恐惧之眼，在那里他们在军团战争中基本上被粉碎了。在和谐星之战之后，大量的军团成员后来被前第一连长以泽凯尔·阿巴顿的黑色军团吸收。一些战帮，后来被称为“三重诅咒叛徒”“，能够保持独立，仍然作为荷鲁斯之子运作。

Homeworld 家园世界
The Luna Wolves are said to have originated from a world called Cthonia; this planet allegedly existed in one of Terra's closest neighbouring star systems. Being within reach even for non-warp spacecraft, Cthonia had been colonised, built upon, tunneled and mined out most likely since the dawn of space travel. As such, all natural resources had been stripped away and used up millennia before the arrival of the Primarch Horus Lupercal, and the ancient mining technology had long since been rediscovered and removed by the Adepts of Mars. The planet that remained was largely redundant and abandoned, completely riddled with catacombs, crumbling industrial plants and exhausted mine-workings. It is noted as no longer extant in current Imperial records, believed to have cataclysmically lost geo-structural integrity in the centuries after the Horus Heresy. Many put this down to the fact that the planet was tunneled and mined right though to the (dead) planetary core, but there is much conjecture that Cthonia was deliberately destroyed, by person or persons unknown.
据说影月苍狼起源于一个名为科索尼亚的世界；据称，这颗行星存在于泰拉最近的邻近恒星系之一中。即使对于非亚空间航天器来说，科索尼亚也触手可及，自太空航行开始以来，它很可能已经被殖民、建造、挖掘和开采。因此，在原体荷鲁斯·卢佩卡尔到来之前的数千年里，所有的自然资源都被剥夺并耗尽了，古老的采矿技术早已被火星专家重新发现并移除。剩下的行星基本上是多余和废弃的，完全布满了地下墓穴、摇摇欲坠的工业厂房和枯竭的矿井。它在目前的帝国记录中已不复存在，据信在荷鲁斯叛乱之后的几个世纪里，它已经灾难性地失去了地质结构的完整性。许多人将此归因于这颗行星一直被挖掘到（死亡的）行星核心，但有很多猜测认为科索尼亚是被一个或多个未知的人故意摧毁的。
Symbol of the Luna Wolves 影月苍狼标志
Cthonia was so close to Terra that it appears that at least one Cthonian native was able to travel to Terra during the Unification Era, before becoming one of the first Luna Wolves.
科索尼亚与泰拉的距离如此之近，以至于在统一时期，至少有一名科索尼亚原住民能够前往泰拉，然后成为第一批影月苍狼之一。
History 历史
Unification 统一
During the Unification Wars the initial recruitment pool of the XVIth Legion was believed to made up of members of the 'hunter clans' of both the Jutrigan Bowl and Samsatian sub-plate slums of Terra. These areas were reckoned to be harsh places to live, with their inhabitants noted for their ruthless, independent character. Whether it was this nature, or the Emperor's genetic design for the legion template, or a mixture of both, the nascent Terran XVIth soon became known for being exemplar shock troops during the initial Imperial expansion campaigns, used successfully to both quickly start and finish fights, either in an initial, fully successful blow, or in being deployed from reserve to enact the killing strike.
在统一战争期间，第十六军团的最初招募地被认为是由泰拉尤特里根盆地和萨姆萨提亚板块贫民窟的“猎人氏族”成员组成的。这些地区被认为是生活条件恶劣的地方，其居民以无情、独立的性格而闻名。无论是这种性质，还是帝皇对军团模板的基因设计，还是两者的混合，新生的泰拉第十六军团很快就以在最初的帝国扩张运动中成为模范突击部队而闻名，成功地用于快速开始和结束战斗，无论是在最初的、完全成功的打击中，还是从预备部署以实施杀戮打击。
Pre-Heresy Luna Wolves Space Marine 叛乱前影月苍狼星际战士
One of their earliest campaigns proved important to the development and formation of the XVIth as a legion was the First Pacification of Luna. Playing the most important role in the action, the XVIth achieved both the critical objective and notoriety during the conflict, gaining the unofficial moniker of the Emperor's Wolves. As a result, they were tithed the bulk of the output of the captured gene-labs for a time, allowing them to rapidly build their numbers. This, in turn, necessitated more recruiting stock.
他们最早的战役之一被证明对第十六军团的发展和形成很重要，那就是第一次月球平定。作为行动中最重要的角色，十六军团在冲突中实现了关键目标和名声，获得了帝皇之狼的非正式绰号。因此，他们在一段时间内获得了俘获的基因实验室的大部分产出，使他们能够快速建立自己的成员。这反过来又需要更多的征募人员。
Thus, many of the original XVIth are believed to have had a separate, somewhat unusual origin; they were effectively kidnapped from the world of Cthonia by 'recruitment squads' sent from Terra charged with the task of rounding up thousands of individuals from the violent gangs that infested the ancient world. These 'recruits' were then taken to the geno-laboratories on Luna for the modification and indoctrination required to become Space Marines.
因此，许多最初的十六军团被认为有一个单独的、有点不同寻常的起源；他们实际上是被泰拉派出的“招募小队”从科索尼亚世界绑架的，这些招募小队的任务是捕获来自古代世界暴力帮派的数千人。这些“新兵”随后被带到月球上的基因实验室，接受成为星际战士所需的改造和灌输。
Upon the discovery of Horus, the Emperor officially renamed them the Luna Wolves in honor of their past victories and baptism of fire on Terra's moon. Despite this somewhat unusual beginning, the end results were reckoned to be exemplary loyal and ferociously motivated troops. By the time Horus was placed in charge of them, the Luna Wolves were ten thousand strong.
在发现荷鲁斯后，帝皇正式将他们重新命名为影月苍狼，以纪念他们过去在泰拉卫星上的胜利和战火的洗礼。尽管这一开始有些不同寻常，但最终的结果被认为是忠诚和积极性极强的部队的典范。当荷鲁斯接管他们时，影月苍狼已经有一万人了。
The Great Crusade 大远征
Horus, the Primarch of the Luna Wolves, was the first of the Primarchs to be recovered by the Emperor, having been cast much closer to Terra than the others. Horus was for many years the Emperor's only discovered son, and there was a great affinity between them. The Emperor spent much time with his protege, teaching and encouraging him, and soon gave him command of the legion created from his own genetic code. With these warriors to lead, Horus accompanied the Emperor for the first thirty years of the Great Crusade, and together they forged the initial expansion of the young Imperium.
影月苍狼的原体荷鲁斯是第一个被帝皇寻回的原体，他比其他原体更靠近泰拉。荷鲁斯多年来一直是帝皇唯一被发现的儿子，他们之间有着深厚的感情。帝皇花了很多时间和他的门徒在一起，教导和鼓励他，很快就让他指挥由他自己的遗传编码创建的军团。在这些战士的带领下，荷鲁斯陪伴帝皇进行了大远征的前三十年，他们共同打造了年轻帝国的初步扩张。
Combat Disposition and Record 作战部署和记录
Unlike almost all other Legions, the Luna Wolves were led by their Primarch almost from inception. Not only that, they spent decades fighting under the direct supervision of the Emperor himself. This led to them thinking of themselves as the pre-eminent Legion and led to a prideful and confident mentality. They strove to be the best; to conquer more than the other Legions, faster than them, and better than them. It is arguable that they succeeded in these aims, but equally arguable that their 'successful' combat records do not exactly stand up to close scrutiny.
与几乎所有其他军团不同，影月苍狼几乎从一开始就由他们的原体领导。不仅如此，他们还在帝皇本人的直接监督下战斗了几十年。这导致他们认为自己是杰出的军团，并产生了自豪和自信的心态。他们努力做到最好；征服比其他军团更多，比他们更快，比他们更好。他们成功实现了这些目标是有争议的，但同样有争议的是，他们的“成功”战斗记录并不能完全经得起仔细审查。
The Early Crusade 远征早期
As Horus and the Emperor spent much of the initial Great Crusade together, the Luna Wolves were present at all of the Emperor's early victories, winning great glory for themselves. Incidents from these early campaigns that highlighted the bond between the ruler of the Imperium and their commander would become legend throughout the galaxy. At the Siege of Reillis, Horus was knocked senseless by a plasma blast that sent him sprawling to the floor; the Emperor stood over his downed son and slew all that came near until reinforcements arrived. Horus was able to repay this life-debt later, on the Ork world of Gorro, when the Emperor found himself being choked by a huge Ork warlord in hand-to-hand combat; Horus stepped in and struck the Ork's arm from his body.
由于荷鲁斯和帝皇在大远征初期中大部分时间都在一起，影月苍狼参加了帝皇的所有早期胜利，为自己赢得了巨大的荣耀。这些早期战役中的事件突显了帝国统治者与其指挥官之间的联系，这些事件将成为整个银河系的传奇。在莱利斯围城中，荷鲁斯被等离子爆炸击倒，四肢瘫倒在地；帝皇站在他倒下的儿子身边，杀死了所有靠近的人，直到援军到达。荷鲁斯后来在戈罗的欧克世界偿还了这一命债，当时帝皇在肉搏战中被一个巨大的欧克军阀掐住；荷鲁斯冲了过来，把欧克的手臂从其身体上打了下来。
The Luna Wolves advance 影月苍狼进军
Eventually, however, the Emperor received word that another Primarch had been discovered, and left the side of Horus and the Luna Wolves to meet his newly found son. Horus was given temporary command of all the Imperial Legions during this time, an indicator of how highly he was esteemed. While Horus was pleased that one of his missing brothers had been found, the thirty years spent as the Emperor's only child had made their mark; he determined that he would always make the Emperor proudest of his and his legion's achievements.
然而，最终，帝皇收到了另一位原体被发现的消息，并离开了荷鲁斯和影月苍狼的身边，去迎接他新发现的儿子。在此期间，荷鲁斯临时指挥所有帝国军团，这表明他受到了高度尊重。荷鲁斯很高兴找到了他失踪的兄弟之一，但作为帝皇独生子度过的三十年却留下了印记；他决心永远让帝皇为他和他的军团的成就感到骄傲。
As more and more Primarchs were discovered, and other business of the growing Imperium required the Emperor's direct attention, Horus found himself placed in overall strategic command of large swathes of the Imperial Crusade forces on several occasions. His excellence in this role drew praise not only from his father, but from his brothers; Horus was apparently universally respected by the other Space Marine Legions and their Primarchs. One of the reasons for this was that Horus appeared able to use his forces in flexible ways; able to unleash his Luna Wolves if required, but also able to use them as diplomats. He developed a habit of partaking in local customs whenever bringing a new world into the Imperium, and the Luna Wolves were exposed to many such traditions as a result. The most important of these would be the practice of warrior-lodges. While a form of warrior-lodge had existed in the legion since its early days, after the compliance of a world known as Davin, it became more popular and even somewhat ritualized. This would be something that would have serious implications in the legion's future.
随着越来越多的原体被发现，以及日益壮大的帝国的其他事务需要帝皇的直接关注，荷鲁斯发现自己多次被置于帝国远征大片部队的总体战略指挥之下。他在这个角色上的卓越表现不仅得到了父亲的赞扬，也得到了兄弟们的赞扬；荷鲁斯显然受到其他星际战士及其原体的普遍尊重。其中一个原因是荷鲁斯似乎能够灵活地使用他的部队；如果需要，他可以释放他的影月苍狼，但也可以将其用作外交官。他养成了一种习惯，每当把一个新世界带到帝国时，他都会参加当地的习俗，因此影月苍狼接触到了许多这样的传统。其中最重要的是战士结社的实践。虽然一种形式的战士结社从早期就存在于军团中，但在一个被称为戴文的世界被征服之后，它变得更加流行，甚至有些仪式化。这将对军团的未来产生严重影响。
The Luna Wolves also acquired all the glory of being the greatest Primarch's personal guard, and they shared Horus' credo of fighting to be the best. Under his ambitious command, the Luna Wolves were always at the forefront of the latest campaign, energetically pushing the boundaries of the Imperium ever wider, driving further and further into the galaxy and striving to conquer and liberate more worlds than the other Legions, destroying all enemies of humanity in their way.
影月苍狼也获得了作为最伟大的原体的个人卫队的所有荣耀，他们分享了荷鲁斯的战斗信条。在他雄心勃勃的指挥下，影月苍狼始终站在最新战役的最前沿，积极推动帝国的边界越来越宽，越来越深入银河系，努力征服和解放比其他军团更多的世界，摧毁所有挡在他们面前的人类之敌。
"I thought the Luna Wolves were supposed to be the most aggressive of us all. That's how you like the other legions to think of you, isn't it? The most feared of mankind's warrior classes?"
“我以为影月苍狼应该是我们所有人中最具侵略性的。这就是你喜欢其他军团对你的看法，不是吗？人类最害怕的战士阶层？”
"Our reputation speaks for itself, sir."
“我们的声誉不言自明，先生。”
--Sigismund of the Imperial Fists in conversation with Garviel Loken of the Luna Wolves.
--帝国之拳的西吉斯蒙德与影月苍狼的加维尔·洛肯的对话。
The Ullanor Crusade 乌兰诺远征
Perhaps the greatest achievement of the Luna Wolves, the Ullanor Crusade became a feted military campaign of the Imperium and to many is seen as the high watermark of the Great Crusade itself. The Ullanor sector was the domain of the Ork Overlord Urlakk Urg, who ruled over dozens of human-founded worlds. Determined to exterminate the Orks, Horus distracted them by ordering secondary attacks on the outlying worlds by other Space Marine Legions and Imperial Army regiments. With the focus of the Orks on these invasions of their borders, the Luna Wolves dove straight for the throat, initiating a surprise orbital drop directly onto Urlakk Urg's capital world. Horus led his 1st Company Terminator elite into a personal teleport attack on Urg's palace. With the majority of the Terminators dealing with the Ork defenders, Horus led ten of the best into combat with Urg and his own forty-strong retinue. The fight was a hard one, but Horus eventually slew the Ork, casting his broken body out from the battlements of his tower, demoralising his Ork followers. Of the fight between the ten Terminators and the forty Orks, there was only one survivor: First Captain Ezekyle Abaddon.
也许是影月苍狼最伟大的成就，乌兰诺远征成为帝国备受赞誉的军事行动，对许多人来说，它被视为大远征本身的最高标志。乌兰诺星区是欧克霸主乌尔拉克·乌尔格的领地，他统治着数十个人类建立的世界。为了消灭兽人，荷鲁斯下令其他星际战士和帝国陆军兵团对边远世界进行二次攻击，分散他们的注意力。随着欧克的注意力集中在对其边界的入侵上，影月苍狼直冲咽喉，开始了一次令人惊讶的轨道空降，直接降落到乌尔拉克·乌尔格的首都世界。荷鲁斯率领他的第一连队终结者精英对乌尔格的宫殿进行了个人传送攻击。由于大多数终结者都在与欧克守军打交道，荷鲁斯率领十名最优秀的战士与乌尔格和他自己的四十名随从作战。这场战斗很艰难，但荷鲁斯最终杀死了欧克，将他破碎的身体从塔楼的城垛中扔了出来，使他的欧克追随者士气低落。在十个终结者和四十个兽人之间的战斗中，只有一个幸存者：第一连长以泽凯尔·阿巴顿。
At the successful conclusion of the Ullanor Crusade a year later, the Emperor declared it the greatest victory yet for his mighty Imperium and was said to bestow much praise upon the Luna Wolves and Horus for their part in the campaign. At the subsequent Triumph of Ullanor, the Emperor himself bestowed upon Horus the title of Warmaster, making him the supreme commander of the Emperor's forces and effectively giving him complete military control of the Great Crusade. The Emperor also suggested, before he returned to Terra and left the rest of the Crusade to Horus, that Horus should rename his legion to cement his position as Warmaster. The suggested name was the Sons of Horus. Horus initially declined this honour and his Legion continued as the Luna Wolves.
一年后，乌兰诺远征成功结束，帝皇宣布这是他强大的帝国迄今为止最大的胜利，据说他非常赞扬影月苍狼和荷鲁斯在战役中的作用。在随后的乌兰诺大捷中，帝皇亲自授予荷鲁斯战帅的称号，使他成为帝皇军队的最高指挥官，并有效地让他完全控制了大远征。帝皇还建议，在他返回泰拉并将大远征的剩余部分留给荷鲁斯之前，荷鲁斯应该重新命名他的军团，以巩固他作为战帅的地位。建议的名字是荷鲁斯之子。荷鲁斯最初拒绝了这一荣誉，他的军团继续作为影月苍狼。
The Eye of Horus, the Symbol of the Sons of Horus 荷鲁斯之眼，荷鲁斯之子的标志
Transformation - The Sons of Horus 转变 - 荷鲁斯之子
Increasingly concerned, however, with a belief that some of the other Primarchs and their Legions did not show him and his Wolves enough honour in their roles as the Warmaster and his personal Legion, Horus, at the suggestion of Sanguinius, eventually took up the offer made to him by the Emperor to change the name and iconography of Legion XVI. Shortly after the Interex campaign the Luna Wolves became the Sons of Horus.
然而，荷鲁斯越来越担心，其他一些原体及其军团在他担任战帅和他的个人军团时，他和他的影月苍狼没有展示足够的荣誉，在圣吉列斯的建议下，荷鲁斯最终接受了帝皇的提议，更改了第十六军团的名称和标志。英特雷斯战役后不久，影月苍狼成为了荷鲁斯之子。
Heresy-era Sons of Horus Space Marine 叛乱时期荷鲁斯之子战士
Not long after the change, Horus was wounded on the moon of Davin by Eugen Temba, an old subordinate who was under the influence of the Chaos Power Nurgle. Horus recovered in the Temple of the Serpent Lodge, a warrior and healing lodge on the planet. During his convalescence, he took part in the induction ceremony of the lodge. In the days that followed, some of Horus' officers detected a change in his character. It is now known that the warrior lodge was in fact a Chaos coven, which somehow managed to ensnare the Warmaster, allegedly due to scheming from Lorgar, Primarch of the Word Bearers.
改变后不久，荷鲁斯在戴文的卫星上被受混沌之力纳垢影响的老部下欧根·坦巴打伤。荷鲁斯在蛇屋神庙中康复，这是一个行星上的战士和治疗结社。在康复期间，他参加了结社的入职仪式。在接下来的几天里，荷鲁斯的一些军官发现他的性格发生了变化。现在知道，战士结社实际上是一个混沌集会，它以某种方式设法诱捕了战帅，据称是由于怀言者原体洛加的阴谋。
A similar warrior lodge already existed in his own Legion, started after the Luna Wolves' first visit to Davin - this was an example of the Primarch's well-tried practice to develop ties with local populations at work; feral natives were more easily recruited into the Imperial fold when the 'Warriors from the Stars' had become brothers - and it is believed it was subsequently used by the Primarch to aid in the corruption of his Marines. Warrior lodges in other legions under his command were similarly used. Horus' fealty had changed; his Legion eventually came to believe that he was actually possessed by a Daemon. Whether or not this is true, it is certain that he was now allied body and soul to the Powers of Chaos, and he had a new vision for the Imperium with himself at its head.
在他自己的军团中已经存在着一个类似的战士结社，这是在影月苍狼第一次访问戴文之后开始的 — 这是原体与当地工作人员建立联系的良好实践的一个例子；当“来自群星的勇士”成为兄弟时，野蛮的土著更容易被招募到帝国的怀抱中 — 据信，这后来被原体用来帮助他的战士腐化。在他指挥下的其他军团中的战士结社也得到了类似的使用。荷鲁斯的忠诚已经改变；他的军团最终相信他实际上被一个恶魔附身了。不管这是不是真的，可以肯定的是，他现在全身心地与混沌力量结盟，他对帝国有了一个新的愿景，而他自己就是帝国之首。
By the beginning of the Horus Heresy, the Sons of Horus numbered between 130,000 and 170,000 Space Marines and were considered one of the larger Legions of the Legio Astartes.
在荷鲁斯叛乱开始时，荷鲁斯之子拥有13万至17万名星际战士，被认为是阿斯塔特军团中规模较大的军团之一。
The Horus Heresy 荷鲁斯之乱
The majority of the Sons of Horus, already fiercely loyal and proud of their Warmaster, had no hesitation at the outbreak of the Horus Heresy. They quickly renounced their oaths to the Emperor and started to worship Horus and his new gods. The remaining portion of the Legion was betrayed and wiped out by their brothers on the world of Isstvan III, but not before reverting to the use of their original name, the Luna Wolves. Few loyalist Sons of Horus survived this purge. The best known was Iacton Qruze who fled the Isstvan III system on the Eisenstein; he too reverted to the name and even the iconography of the Luna Wolves. Other Sons of Horus had not been present at Isstvan III, and some of these stayed loyal, becoming Blackshields.
荷鲁斯之子的大多数人已经非常忠诚，并为他们的战帅感到自豪，他们对荷鲁斯叛乱的爆发毫不犹豫。他们很快放弃了对帝皇的誓言，开始崇拜荷鲁斯和他的新神。军团的剩余部分在伊斯塔万三号世界上被他们的兄弟背叛并消灭，但在此之前，他们恢复了原来的名字影月苍狼。在这场清洗中，很少有忠诚的荷鲁斯之子幸存下来。最著名的是亚克顿·克鲁兹，他通过艾森斯坦号逃离了伊斯塔万三号星系；他也恢复了影月苍狼之名，甚至是它的标志。其他荷鲁斯之子没有出现在伊斯塔万三号，其中一些人保持忠诚，成为了黑盾。
The Sons of Horus attack 荷鲁斯之子攻击
Outside the Legion, Horus' corruption spread to every organisation with which he had dealings, including a division of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and from there to the Collegia Titanica and the Legio Cybernetica. The other Primarchs Horus knew like brothers, and he was already well practiced at motivating them. Appealing to their pride, martial prowess and courage while playing upon past grudges and favours, the Warmaster gained the loyalty of fully half the Primarchs. The war that followed was the most terrible in the history of the Imperium and came close to shattering it forever. Space Marines fought Space Marines and Titans fought Titans. Horus carved out a vast swathe of the Northern Imperium which became known as the Dark Empire.
在军团之外，荷鲁斯的腐化蔓延到他与之打交道的每个组织，包括机械神教的一个部分，并从那里蔓延到泰坦修会和智控军团。对其他的原体荷鲁斯就像兄弟一样，他已经很善于激励他们了。在利用过去的怨恨和恩惠的同时，战帅吸引了他们的骄傲、军事实力和勇气，赢得了整整一半的原体的忠诚。随后发生的战争是帝国历史上最可怕的战争，几乎将其永远粉碎。星际战士与星际战士作战，泰坦与泰坦作战。荷鲁斯开辟了一大片北方帝国，后来被称为黑暗帝国。
On Molech, the Sons of Horus scored a major victory and Horus was able to acquire the same powers of the Emperor. During this same battle, the pre-Heresy Mournival was reunited aboard the Vengeful Spirit after an infiltration team of Knights-Errant including Garviel Loken was captured and brought before Horus in Lupercal's Court. After a fierce battle that saw the Warmaster slay Iacton Qruze, the Knights-Errant managed to escape. Horus was later confronted by Leman Russ, and was badly wounded by the Spear of Russ during the Battle of Trisolian despite the traitor military victory.
在摩洛，荷鲁斯之子取得了重大胜利，荷鲁斯得以获得与帝皇相同的力量。在同一场战斗中，叛乱前的四王议会在复仇之魂号上重聚，此前包括加维尔·洛肯在内的游侠骑士渗透小队被捕并被带到卢佩卡尔王庭的荷鲁斯面前。经过一场激烈的战斗，战帅杀死了亚克顿·克鲁兹，游侠骑士设法逃脱了。荷鲁斯后来遇到了黎曼·鲁斯，尽管叛徒取得了军事胜利，但在特里索兰之战中，他还是被鲁斯之矛重伤。
Horus' wound by Russ proved severe, sending the Warmaster into a comatose-like state as his soul was fought over by the Gods of Chaos. Without his guidance the war effort faltered, with many Primarchs refusing to listen and Horus Aximand and Falkus Kibre proving indecisive and stubborn despite Maloghurst's best attempts to retain cohesion and enact Horus' will. At Heta-Gladius, the Vengeful Spirit itself faced destruction under the leadership of Aximand as Maloghurst enacted a ritual to try and restore Horus. Thanks to the sacrifice of Maloghurst, Horus' soul was restored, and the Sons of Horus arrived at Ullanor for the general muster of traitor forces before the move on Terra. Meanwhile, the Sons of Horus' own homeworld of Cthonia was besieged and conquered by the Imperial Fists.
鲁斯对荷鲁斯的伤害很严重，当他的灵魂被混沌诸神争夺时，战帅陷入了类似昏迷的状态。没有他的指导，战争的努力步履蹒跚，许多原体拒绝听令，尽管马洛赫斯特尽最大努力保持凝聚并制定荷鲁斯的意志，但荷鲁斯·阿西曼德和法库斯·凯博表现出犹豫不决和固执。在赫塔-格拉迪厄斯，复仇之魂号在阿西曼德的领导下面临毁灭，马洛赫斯特制定了一项仪式，试图恢复荷鲁斯。由于马洛赫斯特的牺牲，荷鲁斯的灵魂得以恢复，荷鲁斯之子在前往泰拉之前抵达乌兰诺，召集叛徒部队。与此同时，荷鲁斯之子自己的家园世界科索尼亚被帝国之拳围困并征服。
At the climax of the war, the traitors struck towards the Sol System and brought closure to the Solar War. By this point, the Sons of Horus had begun deploying Newborn Legionaries, new Space Marines hastily created during the Heresy itself. A large splinter Sons of Horus force, called the "True Sons of Cthonia", was allowed by Horus to attempt to retake Cthonia. This group, led by Captain Vheren Ashurhaddon, remained loyal to their Primarch, but believed that the Legion was losing itself due to the influence of Chaos, seeing salvation in the old traditions of their homeworld.
在战争的高潮，叛徒向太阳系发起进攻，带来了太阳战争的终结。此时，荷鲁斯之子已经开始部署新血军团士兵，这是叛乱时期匆忙创建的新星际战士。荷鲁斯允许一支名为“科索尼亚真实之子”的荷鲁斯之子部队试图夺回科索尼亚。这个由维伦·阿舒哈顿连长领导的团体仍然忠于他们的原体，但认为由于混沌的影响，军团正在失去自我，在他们家园世界的旧传统中看到了救赎。
After his victory in the Solar War, Terra was invaded by Horus, and the Emperor's Palace itself was besieged and breached. However by this point the constant pull of the Ruinous Powers had seen Horus' mental state deteroriate, and he became increasingly withdrawn from the day-to-day affairs of the siege as his emissary Argonis became horrified by his apparent senility. In a bid to end the war to save the ever-decaying Horus, Abaddon and the Mournival led a subterranean assault on the Saturnine Gate. However the assault failed due to preparations by Rogal Dorn, and all the Mournival save Abaddon himself died in the assault. Following the disaster figures such as Indras Archeta, Azelas Baraxa, and Xhofar Beruddin rose to prominence, but these were poor copies of their predecessors and the Legion began to fracture into warlordism amidst Terra's ruins.
在太阳战争胜利后，泰拉被荷鲁斯入侵，帝皇的宫殿本身被围困和破坏。然而，到了这一点，毁灭力量的不断拉扯已经让荷鲁斯的精神状态变得不稳定，随着他的密使阿尔戈尼斯对他明显的衰老感到震惊，他越来越远离围城的日常事务。为了结束战争以拯救不断衰败的荷鲁斯，阿巴顿和四王议会领导了对土星之门的地下进攻。然而，由于罗格·多恩的准备，袭击失败了，除了阿巴顿本人，所有的四王议会都在袭击中丧生。灾难发生后，因德拉斯·亚克塔、艾泽拉斯·巴拉夏和寇法尔·贝鲁丁等人物崭露头角，但这些都是对他们前任的拙劣复制，军团开始在泰拉的废墟中分裂成军阀割据。
In the end, it was Horus who was slain, and with him died the rebellion. On the 55th day of the siege, Horus, in a bid to end the campaign quickly, lowered the shields around his flagship, daring the Emperor to board it. He did so, and although the Emperor was brought low in their resultant duel, Horus was killed. It was a traumatic and devastating blow for the Sons of Horus, who immediately broke off from their assault upon the planet below. However, they launched a costly counter-attack to retake their fallen Primarch's body. The remnants of the Imperial boarding party who had not already left were thus scoured from the vessel by Abaddon and his 1st Company Terminators.
最后，荷鲁斯被杀，叛乱也随之而去。在围城的第55天，荷鲁斯为了迅速结束战役，降下了旗舰周围的护盾，让帝皇登上旗舰。他这样做了，尽管帝皇在决斗中被击败，荷鲁斯还是被杀了。这对荷鲁斯之子来说是一个创伤和毁灭性的打击，他们立即停止了对下面行星的攻击。然而，他们发动了代价高昂的反击，夺回了倒下的原体的尸体。帝国跳帮小队尚未离开的残余人员被阿巴顿和他的第一连队终结者从船上赶出。
Post-Heresy 叛乱后
Degradation 退化
Horus' death broke the Sons of Horus' morale, and they began to retreat from Terra after recovering Horus' corpse. This act further undermined the Traitors' cohesion, as they were left leaderless. Several factions of the other Traitor legions would come to blame the Sons of Horus for the ultimate failure of the Siege of Terra, claiming that victory could still have been achieved. Meanwhile, Vheren Ashurhaddon's attempt to retake Cthonia was foiled when the Dark Angels destroyed the planet, killing most of the still-fighting traitors and loyalists on it. However, Ashurhaddon and some of his followers were able to escape, hoping to use the memory of Cthonia to eventually reforge their Legion.
荷鲁斯之死打击了荷鲁斯之子的士气，他们在找到荷鲁斯的尸体后开始从泰拉撤退。这一行为进一步削弱了叛徒的凝聚力，因为他们失去了领导者。其他叛徒军团的几个派系指责荷鲁斯之子导致了泰拉围城的最终失败，声称胜利仍然可以实现。与此同时，当黑暗天使摧毁了行星，杀死了行星上大多数仍在战斗的叛徒和忠诚者时，维伦·阿舒哈顿夺回科索尼亚的企图被挫败了。然而，阿舒哈顿和他的一些追随者得以逃脱，希望利用科索尼亚的记忆最终重建他们的军团。

With the Great Scouring's conclusion, the entire Legion regrouped on the world of Maeleum inside the Eye of Terror. There they built a fortress-tomb for the safe-keeping of the Warmaster's corpse and even in death still revered him as their commander. Nobody was appointed in his place and the Captains of the Legion would offer sacrifices and pray for guidance in his shrine. Many Sons of Horus venetrated their dead Primarch as a god, believing that he would eventually be resurrected to return them to greatness. Some Sons of Horus rejected this devotion outright, however, leaving Maeleum and deciding that they would never again bow down to anyone, be it mortals or gods.
随着大清洗的结束，整个军团在恐惧之眼内重新集结在玛勒姆世界。在那里，他们建造了一座堡垒坟墓，用于安全保管战帅的尸体，即使在死亡时，他们仍然尊他为指挥官。没有人被任命接替他的位置，军团连长会在他的圣地献祭并祈祷指引。许多荷鲁斯之子将他们死去的原体传颂为神，相信他最终会复活，让他们恢复伟大。然而，一些荷鲁斯之子彻底拒绝了这种奉献，离开了梅勒姆，并决定他们再也不会向任何人低头，无论是凡人还是神。
The Sons of Horus were initially the most aggressive Legion against the Imperium, as if to atone for their previous cowardice on Terra or perhaps to attempt to 're-prove' that they were still the best Legion. The Sons dedicated themselves not to one single Chaos Power but constantly shifted their allegiance to whatever god suited them at the time. Marines willingly became possessed by the Chaos Gods' daemons; with every change in loyalty, the daemons of the rejected god abandoned the hosts, leaving them lifeless husks. The once great Legion constantly dwindled in number, until they neared extinction. Eventually the desperate experimentation and research by the Legion's Sorcerer-Librarians uncovered a method of possession that did not destroy the mortal host, saving the Legion. Soon, the Sons of Horus were regrowing in strength, and intended to reassert their former position as predominant legion among the Traitors.
荷鲁斯之子最初是对抗帝国最具侵略性的军团，似乎是为了弥补他们之前在泰拉上的懦弱，或者试图“重新证明”他们仍然是最好的军团。荷鲁斯之子没有献身于一种混沌之力，而是不断地将他们的忠诚转移到当时适合他们的任何神之上。战士心甘情愿地被混沌诸神的恶魔附身；随着忠诚的每一次改变，被拒绝的神的恶魔都抛弃了主人，留下了没有生命的外壳。曾经伟大的军团成员不断减少，直到他们濒临灭绝。最终，军团的巫师智库进行了绝望的实验和研究，发现了一种不会摧毁凡人宿主的占据方法，从而拯救了军团。很快，荷鲁斯之子的力量正在恢复，并打算重新确立他们以前在叛徒中占主导地位的军团地位。
The Traitor Legions, along with the restored but still numerically inferior Sons of Horus, then became embroiled in a series of internecine wars triggered by the Emperor's Children legion. These conflicts dragged on for centuries, and particularily weakened the Sons of Horus, culminating in the destruction of their fortress on Maleum. The legion was shattered during this battle, and suffered massive losses. To the horror of the surviving Sons of Horus, the Warmaster's corpse was taken by the Emperor's Children and several clones were created by their self-styled 'Primogenitor', Fabius Bile. Meanwhile, the other Traitor Legions hunted down the remnants of the Sons of Horus, bringing the legion close to extinction.
叛徒军团，以及恢复但数量仍然较低的荷鲁斯之子，随后卷入了由帝皇之子军团引发的一系列自相残杀的战争。这些冲突持续了几个世纪，尤其削弱了荷鲁斯之子，最终摧毁了他们在玛勒姆的堡垒。军团在这场战斗中被击溃，遭受了巨大的损失。令幸存的荷鲁斯之子们震惊的是，战帅的尸体被帝皇之子带走了，他们自封的“始祖”法比乌斯·拜尔创造了几个克隆人。与此同时，其他叛徒军团追捕了荷鲁斯之子的残余势力，使军团濒临灭绝。
Fate 命运
It was at this point that the old Sons of Horus Justaerin Captain Falkus Kibre was able to track down the Vengeful Spirit and Abaddon deep inside the Eye of Terror. Abaddon revealed his intent to destroy the clone of Horus and reform the Sons of Horus into a Legion to finish the war Horus had begun. After smashing the Emperor's Children fortress and killing the clone of Horus, Abaddon declared himself the rightful successor of the Warmaster. Painting their armor black, Abaddon renamed his forces the Black Legion, rejecting Horus' name and all the failure that went with it. Abaddon managed to reunify the bulk of the old surviving Sons of Horus under his banner. In addition, he gathered disparate warbands which had originated in the other Traitor Legions, thus transforming the Black Legion into an entirely new force which now continues the Long War against the Imperium in the form of Black Crusades.
正是在这一点上，荷鲁斯之子加斯塔林连长法库斯·凯博能够在恐惧之眼深处追踪到复仇之魂号和阿巴顿。阿巴顿透露，他打算摧毁荷鲁斯的克隆人，并将荷鲁斯之子改造成一个军团，以结束自荷鲁斯开始的战争。在粉碎了帝皇之子的堡垒并杀死了荷鲁斯的克隆人之后，阿巴顿宣布自己是战帅的合法继承人。阿巴顿将他们的盔甲涂成黑色，将他的部队重新命名为“黑色军团”，拒绝了荷鲁斯的名字以及随之而来的所有失败。阿巴顿设法将大部分幸存的荷鲁斯之子统一在他的旗帜下。此外，他召集了来自其他叛徒军团的不同兵种，从而将黑色军团转变为一支全新的力量，现在以黑色远征的形式继续与帝国的长期战争。
The Black Legion invades 黑色军团侵略
Not all of the surviving Sons of Horus ended up joining the Black Legion willingly. Many actually opposed Abaddon's rule at first, and Sons of Horus warbands such as Korosan Myrlath's force were among his earliest enemies. Most of these groups did not survive, however, being either wiped out or ultimately agreeing to bend the knee to Abaddon. A few, such as the Sons of the Eye, Wolves of Horus, and True Sons were able to evade him, and continued to operate independently. Known as the "Thrice-Cursed Traitors", these last remnants of the Sons of Horus now face persecution by Abaddon's hands.
并非所有幸存的荷鲁斯之子最终都自愿加入了黑色军团。起初，许多人实际上反对阿巴顿的统治，以及科罗桑·米拉斯的部队等荷鲁斯之子战帮是他最早的敌人之一。然而，这些团体中的大多数都没有幸存下来，要么被消灭，要么最终同意向阿巴顿屈膝。少数人，如“眼之子”、“荷鲁斯之狼”和“真实之子”，能够躲避他，并继续独立行动。被称为“三重诅咒叛徒”，这些荷鲁斯之子的最后残余现在面临着阿巴顿的迫害。

Gene-Seed 基因种子
The gene-seed of the Luna Wolves was always considered reliably pure. However, following their dedications to Chaos, the Space Marines of the Sons of Horus started to exhibit random mutations, and it is likely that this taint went right down to the gene-seed level. The regular practice of seeking Daemonic possession may also have accelerated the effect.
影月苍狼的基因种子一直被认为是可靠的纯洁。然而，在他们致力于混沌之后，荷鲁斯之子的星际战士开始表现出随机突变，这种污染很可能直接进入了基因种子水平。寻求恶魔占据的常规做法也可能加速了这种效果。
One unique feature of the Luna Wolves pre-heresy was the high incidence of battle-brothers bearing a strong physical resemblance to Horus. These "Sons of Horus", as they were so nicknamed, were prone to rising through the ranks faster than their brothers.
影月苍狼在叛乱之前的一个独特之处是，与荷鲁斯有着强烈身体相似性的战斗兄弟的发生率很高。这些绰号为“荷鲁斯之子”的人，往往比他们的兄弟更快地晋升。
Culture and Organization 文化和组织
The Luna Wolves were a highly efficient military force that thrived on the personal charisma, ambition and pride of their Primarch. These traits carry on into both their organisation and their motivation, with ambition, brotherhood and pride all being notable features of their inner workings.
影月苍狼是一支高效的军事力量，依靠其原体的个人魅力、野心和自豪感而蓬勃发展。这些特质会影响他们的组织和动机，野心、兄弟情谊和自豪感都是他们内部工作的显著特征。
The Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus excelled at the application of precise force against a specific weakness, with its warriors favoring close-ranged fire saturation and landing the killing blow on a weakened outnumbered foe. This was drawn from the experiences of brutal gang warfare of Cthonia. To facilitate this means of warfare, Horus preferred to avoid numerous layers of fixed organization and emphasized a highly flexible, informal order of individual units that worked together for the execution of a particular campaign. While overseen by senior commanders, these formations rarely had formal titles and but were commonly referred to as "Speartips".
影月苍狼/荷鲁斯之子擅长对特定弱点施加精确的武力，其战士倾向于近距离饱和射击，并对被削弱的寡不敌众者进行致命打击。这是从科索尼亚残酷的帮派战争的经验中得出的。为了促进这种战争手段，荷鲁斯倾向于避免多层固定的组织，并强调了一种高度灵活、非正式的单个部队的秩序，这些部队共同执行特定的战役。在高级指挥官的监督下，这些编队很少有正式头衔，但通常被称为“矛尖”。
The Sons of Horus tended to apply gang markings to their armor and vehicles. These contained a hidden meaning understood only to those of Cthonian descent. In some cases it even supplanted the rank insignia of the Legion in significance.
荷鲁斯之子倾向于在他们的盔甲和载具上涂上帮派标记。这些包含着一种只有科索尼亚血统的人才能理解的隐藏意义。在某些情况下，它甚至在意义上取代了军团的军衔徽章。
The Speartip 矛尖
The overriding belief of the Legion prior to the death of Horus and their defeat at Terra was their complete superiority above all the other Legions, and indeed any and all enemies. In continually seeking to prove themselves as the greatest Legion, they did indeed achieve most in terms of sheer numbers of worlds brought into compliance prior to the outbreak of the Heresy; the Legion in its loyalist incarnation was a flexible fighting force that performed well and adapted quickly to almost any combat situation. It was trained to respond sharply and decisively to the tactical orders of its Warmaster and consequently the chain of command within the Legion was very efficient.
在荷鲁斯死去并在泰拉战败之前，军团的首要信念是他们完全优于所有其他军团，甚至任何和所有敌人。在不断寻求证明自己是最伟大的军团的过程中，他们确实在叛乱爆发前征服的世界数量方面取得了最大的成就；忠诚的军团是一支灵活的战斗力量，表现良好，能够迅速适应几乎任何战斗情况。它经过训练，能够对战帅的战术命令做出敏锐而果断的反应，因此军团内部的指挥链非常高效。
Sons of Horus Justaerin Terminator Ekron Fal 荷鲁斯之子加斯塔林终结者埃克伦·法尔
Each Company was commanded by a Captain, but not all Captains commanded a Company: The 1st Company was considered the elite unit in the legion and sported at least two renowned squads led by senior officers, the Justaerin Terminator Squad commanded by Captain Falkus Kibre and Catulan Reaver (Assault) Squad, commanded by Captain Kalus Ekaddon. These squads, and possibly all of 1st Company, wore black-painted armour, in contrast to the white and later pale green of the rest of the legion. Companies contained mixed squad-types, to ensure tactical flexibility. This included fielding Terminator Squads outside of the 1st Company. Squads commonly had their own honorific titles, such as the Illuminators, Death Makers, Jerrok's Reavers, First Sons, etc..
每个连队都由一名连长指挥，但并非所有连长都指挥一个连队：第一连队被认为是军团中的精英部队，至少有两个由高级军官领导的著名小队，即由法库斯·凯博连长指挥的加斯塔林终结者小队和由卡鲁斯·埃卡顿连长指挥的卡图兰掠夺者（突击）小队。这些小队，可能还有第一连队的所有小队，都穿着黑色涂漆的盔甲，与军团其他成员的白色和后来的淡绿色形成鲜明对比。连队包含混合小队类型，以确保战术灵活性。这包括在第一连队之外部署终结者小队。小队通常有自己的荣誉称号，如启明者、致死者、杰洛克的掠夺者、长子等。
The principle tactic of the legion - one illustrative of their overall attitude - was a decisive surgical assault aimed directly at the command element of the enemy. A compact but hard-hitting force of marines up to several companies strong would compose the initial (and ideally total) thrust of the effort; this battle philosophy was referred to as the Speartip.
军团的主要战术 — 一个说明他们整体态度的战术 — 是直接针对敌人指挥成员的决定性手术式攻击。一支由战士组成的紧凑但强有力的部队，最多可达数个连队，将构成这项努力的最初（理想情况下是全部）推动力；这种战斗哲学被称为矛尖。
Their defeat and exile was a crushing blow to the collective ego of the Legion, and they broke down and fragmented easily without a purpose or powerful leader to act as the point of their spear. The Legion suffered significantly during the early years of exile when it was leaderless, though since Abaddon's overlordship it has regained a sense of discipline and purpose. Horus' favoured doctrine of 'tearing the throat out of the enemy' by eliminating their high command in a swift strike remains a well-used tactic. After the death of Horus, proper structure within the squads and companies disintegrated, and their later dispersal in various spacecraft further fragmented the Legion.
他们的失败和流亡是对军团集体自尊心的沉重打击，他们很容易崩溃和分裂，没有一个目标或强大的领导者来充当他们的矛尖。在流亡的早期，军团在没有领导人的情况下遭受了巨大的痛苦，尽管自阿巴顿掌权以来，它已经重新获得了纪律和目标感。荷鲁斯所推崇的通过在快速打击中消灭敌人的最高指挥部来“撕裂敌人的喉咙”的学说仍然是一种被广泛使用的战术。荷鲁斯死后，小队和连队内部的适当结构瓦解，他们后来分散在各种航天器中，进一步分裂了军团。
The Mournival 四王议会
With the Primarch as the apex of the legion's order-of-battle, the next step downwards was filled by the Mournival. Although not an official institution, in practice it was this advisory council that helped the Warmaster finalize and execute his strategies. The four Mournival brothers were seen as the senior Captains of the legion.
由于原体是军团战斗序列的顶点，下一步由四王议会填补。虽然不是一个官方机构，但在实践中，正是这个咨询议会帮助战帅最终确定并执行了他的战略。四王议会的四个修士被视为军团的高级连长。
The Lodge 结社
Within the Legion's command structure existed the secretive warrior-lodge, where marines of all ranks and placements could mingle freely and talk openly without having to follow customary rank discipline. Membership was by invite only, and the lodge-members identified each other by the wearing of a silver medallion emblazoned with the Luna Wolf symbol. This system brought individual marines even closer together and increased their bonds of brotherhood and loyalty toward each other, likely increasing combat performance. However, it would eventually aid in the dissolution of the legion's organisation.
在军团的指挥结构中，存在着一个秘密的战士结社，在那里，各级和不同职位的星际战士可以自由来往，公开交谈，而不必遵循习惯的军衔纪律。成员资格仅限受邀者，结社成员通过佩戴印有影月苍狼标志的银色标志相互识别。这个系统使各个战帅更加紧密地联系在一起，增强了他们之间的兄弟情谊和忠诚，可能会提高战斗表现。然而，这最终将成为有助于军团分裂的组织。
Recruitment 招募
During their time as both the Luna Wolves and Sons of Horus, the Legion recruited first from Terra and then following the discovery of Horus, Cthonia. Cthonian gang-culture still was present within the Legion by the time of the Heresy, often in the form of gang tattoos.
在他们作为影月苍狼和荷鲁斯之子的时期，军团首先从泰拉招募，然后在荷鲁斯被发现后在科索尼亚招募。到叛乱时期，科索尼亚帮派文化仍然存在于军团内部，通常以帮派纹身的形式出现。

Trivia and Notes 琐事与注释
Cthonia is presumably a reference to the Greek Chthonia a complex word with connotations to dead domains under the earth and the spirits of the underworld. Cthonic spirits can be both fruitful and destructive; in the positive sense they are referred to as part of the concept of rebirth - the earth that nurtures. In the negative, they are akin to the revenants of the dead come to claim more souls for hell. Compare to the dead, mined-out state of the Luna Wolves homeworld and the role it had in birthing Chaos Space Marines.
科索尼亚大概是指希腊语克托尼亚，这是一个复杂的词，内涵是地下死亡的领域和冥界的灵魂。灵魂可以是富有成效的，也可以是破坏性的；从积极的意义上讲，它们被称为重生概念的一部分，即滋养大地。从消极的角度来看，他们类似于死者的复仇者来为地狱索取更多的灵魂。与影月苍狼家园世界的死亡、开采状态及其在混沌星际战士诞生中的作用相比。
The Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus were considered a large Space Marine Legion and had at least 25 Companies at one point during the Great Crusade. While no maximum headcount for the legion has been given, when the Luna Wolves 10th Company was deployed in entirety during the Whisperhead action on Sixty-Three-Nineteen it numbered approximately 600 marines. If 25 companies existed with the same strength, the Legion at one point could have numbered around 15,000 marines. This is worth noting as the generally perceived sizes of Legions have fluctuated over the years; for some time the 'small legions' concept presented by the Index Astartes articles was prevalent, and the initial novels in the Horus Heresy Series were written with it in mind. This was later quietly retconned during the series to fit in with the 'large legions' concept put forth by such works as Collected Visions. When the baseline number for legions was 10,000, there being 15,000 Luna Wolves would indeed make them one of the larger legions, and would fit in with numbers presented later in the series (for the number of combatants present at the Drop Site Massacre as given in Fulgrim, for example). Since the move to the legion baseline being 100,000, the Luna Wolves must be thought of as having between 100,000 and 150,000 (the number of Word Bearers, the 2nd biggest legion) marines and the amount of Legionaries in Loken's company becomes merely an illustrative number rather than a useful statistic.
影月苍狼/荷鲁斯之子被认为是一个庞大的星际战士军团，在大远征期间至少有25个连队。虽然没有给出军团的最大人数，但当影月苍狼第10连队在63-19的低语之首行动中全部部署时，其战士人数约为600人。如果存在25个兵力相同的连队，那么军团一度可能拥有约15000名战士。值得注意的是，多年来，人们普遍认为的军团规模一直在波动；一段时间以来，阿斯塔特索引文章提出的“小军团”概念很流行，荷鲁斯叛乱系列的最初小说也考虑到了这一点。后来，在系列中，这一点被悄悄地重新调整，以符合 背景图录 等作品提出的“大军团”概念。当军团的基线数量为10000时，有15000名影月苍狼确实会使他们成为更大的军团之一，并且会符合该系列后面提供的数字（例如，福格瑞姆 中给出的登陆点大屠杀中的战斗人员数量）。由于转移到军团基线的人数为10万，因此必须将影月苍狼视为拥有10万至15万（第二大军团 — 怀言者的数量）的战士，而洛肯的连队的军团士兵数量只是一个说明性的数字，而不是一个有用的统计数据。
