Wait did he seriously say, a crusade of two squads?

...I don't think this writer understands what he is writing.

basicly any time the black templars attach a unit of their troops to another Imperial force they call it a crusade.

But that wasn't a fanatical decision.

It was a choice made to obscure their numbers. If they don't have numbers to obscure then... they don't have a reason to go on crusades.

When the BT want to hide their numbers, they fly their Strike Cruisers single-file.

"It's GW's decision not the writers" more or less flies in the face of "GW doesn't believe in canon", does it not?

This incident would make it obvious that Games Workshop collectively has at least some sort of "ideal" for how the 40K universe functions, even if its not entirely fleshed out.

6000 to 1000 is a loss of 5000 marines and there have been 2 codex's where BT are a playable army so...

2 x 1000 (the new number of marines) = 2000

5000 - 2000 = 3000

3000/1000 (new number of marines) = 3

Half Life 3 confirmed!!!!11!!!1!11!!

Whereas these crusade tracks are side-by-side. And look - these army lists, far too shooty to be the melee-happy BTs...
