No such legion exists, nor has it ever existed. The page you are looking for does not exist and has never existed. Thinking it ever did is extra heretical. Thinking that there are words on this page is just nonsense. Perhaps you were looking for the main page? Or perhaps an apothecary would be better suited?
The term is used by the heretical to refer to a mythical 20th Legion. It is nonsensical name, which proves it is a false story, since true priests of the Adeptus Ministorum would know 'alpha' is an ancient term meaning "first". But any such 20th Legion would have been the last to be discovered before the Horus Heresy. LIES Alpha means A so the name Alpha Legion translates into the name A Legion (how original). As with most lore, the Alpha Legion's name comes from religion (again not very original), in this case Christianity. The two Primarchs, Alpharius and Omegon, (twins), represent the line "I am the alpha and omega, the first and the last" but as Omegon is meant to be a secret the legion is named after Alpharius. If Omegon was to be known then the legion could possibly have been called the Omega Legion. Or in other words the "last" legion which conforms to your "needing sense in a name" thing. Adherents to this story make addle-minded claims that prove their insincerity. Such as all marines in this legion were surgically altered to look identical to the Primarch, or that the Emperor himself gave this primarch command over campaign forces above that of the Ecclesiarch, even power fantasies such the existence of more than one primarch in this Legion, and other tall tales that defy belief. Most heretical of all is the claims that these Primarchs betrayed his holiness the Emperor of Mankind willingly without being corrupted by Chaos, which conveniently excuses their absence from the Eye of Terror and thus any observable evidence of their betrayal with the other traitor legions.
These stories are obvious and self-contradictory falsehoods, trash that pollutes the minds of the faithful. We apologize for any discomfort this wiki article may have caused you -- speak to your local chaplain or commissar if you require counseling. If you witness anyone spreading these harmful lies about a 20th Legion, immediately report the heretic to your local representative of the Inquisition or to your unit's commissar. If you happen to be the commissar and you witness yourself spreading these rumors, please report yourself to your bolt pistol.
There are extremely persistent and consistent rumors that the most blessed Blood Ravens chapter of the holy Adeptus Astartes lead by Chapter Master Gabriel Angelos and assisted by the Librarian Isador Akios and the PDF and Imperial Guard lead by...someone...and the Foul Xenos of the Eldar craftworld Biel'tan lead by Farseer Macha fought the mythical Alpha Legion lead by Chaos Lord Bale and Chaos Sorcerer Sindri Myr and an Orkish Waaagh! lead by the Warboss Orkamungus on the planet Tartarus (what a lovely name for a planet). Attempting to accuse the Blood Ravens of Heresy for spreading lies about fictional legions has universally ended in failure. The same applies to the Legion's alleged involvement in the events surrounding the Exterminatus of Typhon and Azariah Kyras' (almost) ascension to Daemonhood. We're not even going to mention the Metal Boxes incident in the Kaurava system...
Also any relation between the Alpha legion and Tzeentch dogma is purely coincidental. But everyone agrees they are space terrorists, and probably al-Qaeda with a grimdark-startrek-feel. No they do not, there is no such legion.
