hh9节译：黑卡托尼斯提卡（玄奥百艺）

The Hekatonystika is the hidden counterpart of the Dark Angels Legion's infamous Hexagrammaton. Transliterated roughly as 'The Hundred Esoteric Arts' in the language of the broken lands of Mykene on Old Earth, the term used to refer to the body of secretive military Orders embedded  within the structure of Wings and Chapters. Each Order was an autonomous body of warriors dedicated to the protection of one portion of the Legion's hard-won secret lore, most often regarding the weakness of some specific foe or mastery of a certain terrain or weapon. They were equal parts scholars and warriors, both researchers and practitioners, and as deadly on the field of battle as they were enigmatic in the halls of the Legion. Though rarely gathered all in one place, small cells of these warriors were often assembled prior to battles that would benefit from their skills, forming a temporary unit known within the Dark Angels as a Cenobium to lead the charge and advise the officers in command.

黑卡托尼斯提卡是黑暗天使军团著名的六翼体系的隐藏副本，在古地球破碎的Mykene大陆上的语言中大致可以被翻译为“玄奥百艺”，该词语用于指代（黑暗天使军团中）被嵌入到各翼和各战团结构中的秘密军事修会体系。每个修会都是投身于保护军团来之不易的秘密知识的某一部分的独立自主战士团体，多数修会通常都关注着某些特定敌人的弱点或者精通某种战术或武器。他们既是学者，也是战士；既是研究者，也是践行者；他们在战场上是致命的武士，就像他们在军团大厅中是高深莫测的哲士一样。虽然他们几乎不会全部聚集在一个地方，但在参与那些能够受益于他们技艺的战斗之前，这些战士小组通常也会集合，组成一个在黑暗天使军团中被称为谋士团的临时单位来领导冲锋作战并且为负责指挥的军官进行参谋。

In addition to the Orders Militant there also existed the Orders Civilis, organisations dedicated to non-battlefield tasks requiring specialist knowledge and vital to the success of the Legion. These Orders rarely counted any full battle-brothers among their ranks, but instead were a means of honouring those Legion serfe and failed aspirants who dedicated themselves to the support of the frontline warriors. Among their number were counted armourers, quartermasters, cargo pilots and maintenance crew， the unseen backbone of the Legion's operations. Yet, as these lesser Orders were given no representation among the Conclave of Preceptors, there are few records of their structure and history available to outsiders.

除了军事修会，第一军团中还存在内勤军团——此类组织专注于需要专业知识的的非战场任务，他们对于军团的胜利也是至关重要的。这些修会中几乎不会包括任何正式的战斗兄弟，相反，它们是一种向军团仆役们和那些献身于前线战士的支援工作的失败应征者们表示敬意的方法，这些凡人是重要的军械工匠、军需官、货船驾驶员和负责维护工作的船员，他们是军团运作的不可见支柱。不过，由于这些次要修会并未被给予导师密会（机仆：可以理解为某种形式的内环）中的代表席位，外人几乎无法得到关于他们的结构与历史的记录。

Many hundreds of Orders Militant have been recorded during the history of the First Legion - many of which have long since been forgotten or destroyed in battle. Of those that remained active at the outbreak of the Horus Heresy the following presents a brief sample:

在第一军团的历史上，有数百个军事修会被记录在案——但很多修会已经被遗忘或在战斗中被摧毁很久了。对于那些在荷鲁斯叛乱爆发时还保持着活跃的军事修会们，我们在下文进行了简短的列举：

The Order of Shattered Crowns: One of the oldest Orders still active within the Legion, with its origins to be found during the Unification Wars on Old Terra, the Shattered Crowns are unparalleled experts in the identification and open execution of the enemy's leaders. Not assassins or silent killers, but proud champions that seek out the heart of the foe's defiance and cut it from the body of their army, they practise a number of secret duelling arts, once commonplace in Terra's forgotten duelling cults, but now all but forgotten. Most are also initiates in the Deathwing and Firewing, whose doctrines mesh well with the Order's teachings, though the Preceptor of the Order is rumoured to stand in the Inner Circle of the Dreadwing.

破碎王冠修会：破碎王冠修会是若干仍在活跃的最古老的修会之一，起源可以追溯至古泰拉的统一战争时期，该修会是识别与公开处决敌军领袖的无可比拟的专家。他们并非刺客或者寂静的杀手，而是高傲自豪的勇士，他们会找出敌人的抵抗核心，并且把它从敌军部队中切分出来;他们践行着众多机密的决斗艺术，这些艺术曾经常见于泰拉被遗忘的决斗教派，但是它们现在几乎被遗忘了。该修会的多数成员也吸收进入了火翼和死翼，火翼和死翼的信条与该修会的教导契合良好，不过有谣言称破碎王冠修会的导师是恐翼的内环成员。

The Order of Broken Wings: Almost entirely represented within the ranks of the Ironwing, the adepts of the Order of Broken Wings are masters in the art of anti-aircraft work. Dedicated to both the arts of deflection targeting and the craftsmanship of superior weaponry, most often heavy calibre autocannon, the Order are considered experts in the placement and operation of ordnance to defeat enemy airborne incursions. Commanders will often summon their adepts from the ranks to oversee such deployments or to man particularly important defensive emplacements during battle.

破裂羽翼修会：几乎整个修会都是钢翼战士，该修会的侍僧（机仆：黑卡托尼斯提卡体系下对于普通战斗兄弟的称呼）们是防空战术大师。该修会专注于偏离（敌人的）瞄准和（使用）高级武器的技艺，最常见的是重口径自动炮，他们被认为擅长于放置和使用重炮来击败敌军的空中袭击。在战斗中，该修会的指挥官们会把侍僧们从部队里召集起来，以监督此类部署或保卫特别重要的防御性阵地。

The Order of Santales: An Order dedicated to the detection and destruction of certain dire clades of xenos, specifically those that thrive by means of psychic or physical parasitism. Once spread widely throughout the Legion, the Order of Santales had access to a large arsenal of psyarkana weaponry collected from a hundred fallen realms. The hidden battle-honours of the Order include such battlefields as Rangda, Nemodiae and Muspel - fields of blood and terror that rival even the legendary battles at Ullanor. In the aftermath of the Council of Nikaea, the Order of Santales was much reduced in number and influence, as those of its number that had once held positions within the now-defunct Librarius found themselves stripped of title by order of the Emperor.

檀香修会：某个专注于探测和毁灭某些恐怖的异形分支，具体而言就是那些通过精神或者物理手段进行寄生生活的异形种族。檀香修会曾经广泛的分散在第一军团当中，他们储存了从一百个失落王国中收集来的大量灵能奥秘武器。该修会隐藏的战斗荣誉包括在诸如Rangda, Nemodiae 和 Muspel之类遍布鲜血与恐惧的战场上的作战经历，这些战役甚至能匹敌乌兰诺上传奇般的战斗。在尼凯亚会议之后，檀香修会在人数和影响上被极大削弱，因为修会中那些曾经在目前已经解散的智库馆中保有着位置的智库员们发现自己因为帝皇的命令而被褫夺了头衔。

The Order of the Argent Spire: An Order whose doctrines are specialised in the mastery of battle upon the frozen wastes of winter-worlds and other ice bound landscapes. Its adepts practise a number of rituals based around enduring extremes of cold that would sap even the strength of the Legiones Astartes, and several unique blade-kata intended to provide stability amid the shifting floes of ice and snow. Its adepts are most commonly found among the ranks of the Stormwing, where small cells are often summoned from the ranks to take the lead in campaigns upon frozen death worlds, though the veterans of the Firewing have also shown some admiration of the specialised sword-skill practised by the Order's Inner Circle knights.

银白尖刃修会：该修会的教义专精于掌握在凛冬世界的冰冻废土和其他冰封环境种作战的方式。该修会的侍僧们要实践很多以甚至会削弱军团阿斯塔特的力量的持久极度寒冷为基础的仪式，而且他们会被给予数个独特的利刃套件，旨在让他们在不断变化的冰雪中获得稳定性。该修会的修士们在飓翼的部队中最为常见，在飓翼部队中该修会的侍僧小组通常会被从部队中聚集起来以领导在冰封死亡世界上进行的战役，不过（修会中的）火翼老兵们也会对修会内环骑士们修习的专门剑术表现出某种欣赏和赞叹。

The Order of Broken Claws: Formed in the wake of the Second Rangdan Xenocide, this small Order holds the only full and complete accounting of that war and the xenos strain known as the Rangda. With access to the detailed catalogue of anatomical data compiled by Firewing operators and Dreadwing cheirophages, the adepts of this Order are trained to stand against the worst Rangdan bio-forms in combat and emerge victorious. During the bloody sieges of the Third Rangdan Xenocide they won much renowned for their prowess, both in combat and in anticipating and countering the strategies of the Rangdan warmasters, but in the wake of the Rangdan's apparent annihilation they have dwindled in number. By the time of the Horus Heresy few members of the Order remain, with only a single chantry station still in service over the ruined world of Advex-Mors where the relics of the dread Rangda are entombed.

断爪修会：该修会是紧随着第二次冉单灭绝战而形成的，这个小型修会保管着关于这次战争与被称为冉单的异形种族唯一的完整记述。通过访问查阅由火翼手术官和恐翼检尸官（机仆：这词在希腊语里有“吃了”的意思，恐翼“验尸”怕不是吃了冉单的脑子读取了记忆…）汇编的详细解剖数据目录，该修会的侍僧们被训练来对抗最为凶恶的冉单生物类型并取得胜利。在第三次冉单灭绝战的血腥围攻战中，该修会因其英勇无畏而赢得了诸多声誉，这份英勇既体现在战斗中，也体现在对于冉单战帅的战略的预测和反击，但该修会成员的数量也紧随着冉单异形的明显覆灭而减少。到荷鲁斯叛乱时，断爪修会仅剩下了极少数成员，只有一座孤独的修道院空间站仍在服役，他悬在被毁灭的世界Advex-Mors之上，这里埋葬着冉单——这个恐怖异形种族的遗产。
