Jareddm Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Cool. Where can I find this source? I know Dark Angels is one of the purest but I love to read the exact wording. Cheers! Nowhere. That quote is from the 40k wiki, whose only cited sources are Codex: Black Templar, Index Astartes 1, neither of which mention specific chapters, the 2nd edition rulebook, and a White Dwarf from 1988. Besides, purity is not the same as functional organs, and the original statement was on identification via functional organs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also in 3rd Edition Codex: Dark Angels (DA have among the purest and most functional, but high lords refrain from using their geneseed for additional foundings). Sorry, but it is listed multiple places. You can't really say it appears nowhere and then cite a bunch of sources. Furthermore, purity is directly linked to functional organs, as degradation of the geneseed is what causes organs to stop functioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I'm sure you can tell me all the nonfunctioning organs the White Scars or the Iron Hands have that proves their impurity. And I say it appears nowhere because THAT exact quote does not appear anywhere. In no official material are the Dark Angels, Ultramarines, and Grey Knights mentioned together based on their purity. All of those sources I mention are mentioned as not containing it, since those were the ones listed on the wiki, and you were the one using the wiki as a quotable source.

Chaplain Lucifer Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I do have the WD from the 90's with the DA "Chapter Aproved" wich states that DA gene-seed purity is second only to the Ultramarines. Page 20 of Current DA codex also states that the DA have impeccably pure gene seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 =][= Folks, as interesting as the gene-seed conversation is, we're here to discuss DA, not the specifics of other gene-lines' gene-seed. Let's keep it focused and on track. =][= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
