Default A vexing question for cadians!

Why is it that, if the people of Cadia are like an army of Keanu Reeves and Chuck Norris combined, No space marine chapters have been founded using Cadians as stock? or taking neophytes from cadia?

they have way too long of a proud military tradition
to allow a marine chapter to come in and lord over their world
and pluck their best warriors

meh, the space marines are scared of getting their asses handed to them if they went to cadia looking for recruits.

it may be because due to the proximity to the EoT, and possibly a result of the Gate/Pylons mutations are commonplace - what we see as the Guard and PDF regiments is the pinnacle of their society's gene pool, and even so are not beyond corruption - it could simply be that no Astartes Chapter wishes to take the risk unnecessarily

I though that because Cadia was a fortress world and the main line of defense near the EoT that no space Marines are ALLOWED to draw stock from it.

technically space marines do whatever they damn well please... its just the threat of what will happen next that keeps them from not doing it.

But ya... Space Marines don't use Cadian boys for their marines because the Cadians have more important things to do... there are plenty of other worlds that have frikkin awesome warriors.
