      Maybe the tubes are connected to sensors of the armor?
      Which makes me ask - are they ever removed from the armor? I don't know 40k very well

        It's not unusual for chaos space marines to be unable to be removed from their armor or to even have merged with it entirely.

          their skin fuses with the armor but it's technically possible to still rip it off. in many cases, that would severely them.

        Most depictions of the Black Carapace show sockets and plugs that go from the armor directly into the Marines body. injectors, sensors, etc. More exotic or specialist equipment or implants require more inserts. Hence the tubes in heads. Perturabo is connected to all manner of weaponry. Angron had the Butchers Nails.

        Assuming WH40k (not nu41k), most imperial space marines have their armor removed when in their monasteries, not training, or not on assignment. Chapter serfs assist them with this. But they can theoretically operate virtually indefinitely while in armor if necessary, and the power armor will cycle waste and so on.

        Many chaos space marines are practically unable to leave their armors, however, having long fused with them, or either them or their armor having been twisted. Others (on either side) have sometimes been augmented in such ways as to make it unfeasible to strip out of the armors, and they often see no need to do so anyway.

          There are many points where he could have come down on the side of the Emperor.

          But, two of those are the Emperor directly causing a rift.

          We all know the Council, in which the Space Wolves betrayed the Thousand Sons trust, and got to keep using their totally-not-psycher powers.
          And the Emperor sided against them without even talking to Magnus afterward.

          Then the final confrontation in the throne room, where the Emperor offers him a chance to rejoin the Imperium. But at the cost of his legion, something Magnus has sacrificed a great deal for over the years.
          The Emperor showed his true colors in that moment. Just as he did with the Thunder Warriors. All beneath him were but tools to his ends.
          All must submit and die beneath him.

            >We all know the Council
            Testimony from other psykers who were actually there is that Magnus fucked that up all by himself, with his arguments being a variation of Plato's Cave (reminder that the Emperor was Diogenes who hated Plato and now his son is spewing the same shit 30k years later) combined with "we are the superior race we are going to replace normal humans we should have privileges and even MORE power". No fucking shit the Emperor told him to check his ego.

          Magnus was loyal but got fucked by Horus into having to go traitor.

          Fulgrim was Loyal but got possessed by a Daemon.

          Konrad was insane and believed the future was immutable, that the Emperor had forseen everything as he had, and thus everything he did was what his dad wanted, so technically he was still loyal too.

          The only Primarchs that buck the trend through their own choices are Vulkan, who was a cool enough dude to resist the naturally occuring evils of baldness, and to an extent Omegom/Alpharious, but since his loyalty to his twin Alpharious/Omegon trumped his loyalty to the Emperor, even though he disagreed with the Heresy and actively undermined the traitor efforts, he still went along with the arseholery regardless. Because baldness is badness.
