No it shouldn't. Its the same as "....for all that have honour" so the
whom is quite appropriate as in Klingon they equate to the same suffix.

I'd agree if I was asking a question but I'm not I was using whom/who
in the same context as I would use that.

for is not a verb it is a suffix "for, intended for" and everyone that
has honour is who "Victory" is intended for
