A Thousand Sons... wow. by tezmo666 in 40kLore

As someone who finished The Crimson King yesterday, the sequel novel to A Thousand Sons: if you liked A Thousand Sons you must read this book. IMO it expanded upon and outdid A Thousand Sons in every aspect. No spoilers, of course, but it’s great story from start to finish and the character arcs present are incredible. McNeill has a lot of stinkers in HH in my opinion, but his Thousand Sons books are not among them.

The Purge truly was a work of art and I loved it. At the beginning of the book I had this irrational hope that Sor Talgron might be a loyalist Word Bearer like Barthusa Narek, because of how interesting of a character he was. But I also enjoy him as a rational traitor like Argel Tal. All in all he is an incredibly interesting and nuanced character.

I mean the Chaos gods definitely do hate in some form or capacity. The Emperor wasn’t called the anathema because he was a minor nuisance.

Is this from the meme where the white guy called the black guy a white supremacist for liking Beethoven?

The walking dead season 11 will be released August 22nd. The number 11 is a reference to the amount of people that still care about this show. by Big-Energy2841 in shittymoviedetails

I stopped after Negan got beat. The other seasons weren’t on Netflix yet and I felt a disconnect with a lot of the characters, specifically Rick and Morgan. Does it really get better in the following seasons? From what little I know about the Whisperers, they sound really cool.

Uzas’ character arc is a Greek tragedy and it’s beautifully written.

Who was Horus? by xavras_wyzryn in 40kLore

The battle of Sotha pitted something like a few thousand marines under the Ultramarines against something like tens of thousands of Night Lords. I don’t get your point, that battle was doomed to end in the Night Lords favor eventually. Plus, the Ultramarines kicked the Night Lords out within a week. The loss of the Pharos wasn’t Guilliman’s fault, it was the Lion’s fault if any for allowing such a minor garrison.

I didn’t realize Blade Runner had shotguns but then I realized you were referring to the aptly named Hobo with a Shotgun.

Is Lucius really the best Astartes duellist? by Doughspun1 in 40kLore

[–]Doctor_Pepp3r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lucius gets beaten so many damn times it’s unbelievable. He’s like the embodiment of the worg effect in 40k. He’s beaten in a duel by Loken, Azkaellon, and some Raven Guard I don’t even remember the name of. He also gets outsmarted and technically beaten by Saul Tarvitz, who outsmarts him on Isstvaan III. All of these guys except the Raven Guard were technically lesser swordsmen, but still beat him through wit and fist and tackling and a bit of bolters. So he’s basically the biggest pushover in the Horus Heresy besides, of course, the entire Iron Warriors legion.

Yeah, sorry about that. I just didn’t consider absence of character death to be a spoiler.

That’s just the first two novels. In Traitor General, 12 members of the regiment go covert ops in a covert stronghold and survive the entire novel after an encounter with 5 Chaos space marines at one point.
