* SeriesContinuityError: Granting that ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' has always been pretty loose about its canon, ''Wolf's Honour'' depicts a female Lord General Militant of the Imperial Guard commanding forces alongside the Space Wolves, contradicting the assertion in ''Literature/CiaphasCain: For the Emperor'' two years earlier that Jenit Sulla became the first woman in Imperial history to reach that rank.

* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: In "Wolfblade", Skorpeus Belisarius lets an Imperial assassin into House Belisarius's secure estate, believing that their House's rival, Cezare Feracci, plans to eliminate the elder members and place him at the head of Belisarius as a figurehead. In his own head, Skorpeus is planning to turn the tables on Cezare and be a fully effective and powerful house ruler - right up to the moment the assassin aims his gun at Skorpeus's face, saying all they needed from him was to unlock the door.

* TheDilbertPrinciple: In ''Wolfblade'' it is explained to Ragnar that the Paternoval Envoy, who represents the Navigator Houses among the High Lords of Terra, is always elected from one of the smaller, less-powerful houses, based on his or her ''lack'' of charisma, wealth, or influence. The greater Houses are at each other's throats so often that putting one of their number in such an exalted position would spell all-out war.
