Why the Deathwatch Doesn’t Follow the Codex Astartes! 🚨🖤 Warhammer 40k lore

Показать описание

Did you know the Deathwatch doesn’t follow the Codex Astartes? Unlike most Space Marine Chapters, the Deathwatch relies on adaptability, forming specialized Kill-Teams to face specific xenos threats. Freed from rigid rules, they use tactics and gear other Chapters wouldn’t dare to try. It’s not about following the rules—it’s about survival and victory. ⚔️💀

It’s super cool how this explains how Brother Titus’ actions don’t clash well with the other Ultramarines, because he is used to being in the Deathwatch, he is used to thinking outside the box. And for codex-compliant chapters, it looks like insubordination.

"The Codex is more like a Guideline, rather than the actual Rules." - Roboute Guilliman to his kids probably

I just realised that the codex Astartes doesn't support spending 90% of your time falling out of thunderhawks but it's one of Titus's favourite activities.

Even Bobby G isn't Codex compliant and doesn't recommend strict unthinking compliance.

Titus, The Black Templar, and Space wolf were all at home in a no rules scenario.

When guilliman came back, he was shocked that most chapters followed the codex so rigidly. The codex was supposed to be a guideline until the emperium got its shit together again.

Truly the perfect place for Titus. Nobody cares if "the codex astartes does not support this behaviour"

The Deathwatch is seen as an honour, but many space marines who come back from service are forever shaken by what they have seen. Even worst, if the Deathwatch calls for chapters to send someone, changes are high they will request a former deathwatch, much to his sadness.
In the words of a watch captain himself regarding how hard service is in the Deathwatch :
"Amongst a hundred men, there may be none fit for the Adeptus Astartes. Amongst a hundred Space Marines, there may be one fit for the Deathwatch."

Death watch Commander: I don't approve of such actions within my area of operations.

Death Watch Space Marine : Removing the area, Sir.

The death watch are a black ops space marine chapter who deal with xeno threats also using xeno weapons to also combat the threats. They also work with inquisition ( though not always a steady partnership). Not all deathwatch are black shields, some are serving a tour of duty it is considered an honor and when returned to the chapter they are instantly respected and considered to be an ultimate warrior.

No crap since the death watch is not a space marine chapter, it's an inquisitorial creation taking the skills from each chapter for a specific task and to take in those space marines that have lost their chapter for some reason. So the codex Astartis dose not apply.
