hahaha. No.
Good luck the inqusition tried before. And failed. Because what would do if these guys fought against the chaos forces with no taint of chaos. Nothing let them do their job. Its not heresy and the High lords of terra would never allow that.

lol, the Inquisition is the ultimate power in the Imperium. If they didn't succeed before, it's because they decided against it, not because they couldn't.

The fact that they've tried before would simply guarantee the fact they'd try again. You know, having their noses put out of joint the first time. Theres a lot of tension there, and the Imperium can easily withstand the loss of 3,000 Marines. The 13th Company has obviously been mutated by the warp, and the Inquisition, already being upset with the SW, would take any excuse to declare them excommunicate traitorus and launch a full blown crusade against them.

I have to agree, but why did they decide against it in the first place.

I also doubt that they could deal with the loss of the SW aswell,.

It's not about quantity, it's about quality and experience and the SW Chapter has a lot to offer, if you consider that they have one of the most colourful and decorated Battle quota's in the whole of the SM Chapters.

To lose the SW Chapter would mean loosing one of the most competant leader's in the SM.

I mean Logan Grimnar and his Space Wolves in the first war for Armaggedon, he was overall commander of ALL of the imperial forces.

The Demon Primarch Angron and his followers were the invaders

He was assign a Company of Grey Knights to act UNDER his authority, given that the Grey Knights excel at slaying demons and knowing that the only salvation was their triumph.

They were also Present for the 3rd battle for armageddon and again committed a sizable force to help .

Logan Grimnar was also recommended to lead the forces of man by Dante and Azrael during the 13th Black Crusade, notice a pattern going on here

I would say that the Inquisition choose not to do anything to the Space Wolves because they are one of the most effective, loyal and dedicated Chapters in the imperium and mearly tolerate their beligerent and anti-authoritarian attitute, which could also be one of the reasons why they are so good at what they do.

Also, I didn't know that the Inquisition could call a crusade, I read somewhere or other (don't ask for my source, my books are all a 24 hour travel away from where I am, not including changeovers) that it had to be the ministorium who declared it. Perhaps a Gaunt Book, or Ravenor/Eisenhorn. Just a little OT.

But I doubt they'd ravage the whole chapter because of the company. They'd complain, test, test, test, test, test, test, complain, then it'd be all sweet to throw them back at chaos (in a more organized fashion this time though, not just 'sic em boy(s))

Firstly this is ment to be a clean forum so don't be a homophobe.
Secondly the Wulven Curse has nothing to do with the Eye of Terror, it is linked to their geneseed and it is beleived to be the main thing that actually has stopped the Eye effecting them.


To the OP, The Eye of Terror campaign codex told us alot about the 13th Company, namely that they were sent into the Eye by Leman Russ to hunt down the Thousand Sons.

The symbolism of destroying a first founding chapter...no, they would not risk that much bad rep with the space marines, NONE of the space marine chapters would favour the inquisition at that point. If it did it more than once, they would likely see their space marine allies ignoring their calls for help.
