Custodian Athiair Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Hi now i dont want no spoilers i am on page 400 so no more info after that please right i am confused why the viral bombs are launched on the few Emperors Children and the death guard etc. why did that happen becuase i thought that only Tarvitz went renagde from the renegades (if you know what i mean) but i haven't seen anything to suggest he was there? so if you could explain that bit for me thanks no wait i have found Tarvitz in there but i also saw Lucius but i know we went to chaos why was he bombed? thanks Athiair :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156222-i-am-confused/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrus Manus Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Basically so that the Primarchs could cleanse their Legions of every marine they felt wouldn't join them in fighting against the Emperor. There, no spoilers ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156222-i-am-confused/#findComment-1826116 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custodian Athiair Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 ok i have now finshed the book but i stil don't see why Horus bombed them becuase surely he would have bombed some of his loyal supporters at which point deafting the whole object of the bombardments? so please now that i have finished the book can you fully explain why he bombed them (and who them were) thank you i am still highly confused Athiair :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156222-i-am-confused/#findComment-1827050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Ok so you've finished the book? For sure? So you can't shout at me for this. :) Horus and the other traitor primarchs had vast amounts of troops under their command. They hadalready sussed out who's loyalties lay where, e.g Tarvitz was loyal to the Emp. And up to and beyond that point Lucius was loyal to the Emp too. Basically they had so many troops that they had to dispose of the loyalist element before trying to attack Terra or even continue the heresy. What Horus et al, don't need is to have loyalist troops in their ranks who would turn on them within the ships of the fleet or send word back to Terra. So put all the good guys on a planet and nuke em. Problem solved...or not.

Tokunator Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Yes, you read the last of the 3 books talking about Horus (should be Galaxy in Flames), Loken was confused because Horus re-assigned people from all around the Legion to the drop assault instead of sending full companies as he usually did. Basically, they put all the Loyalists unto the planet whilst keeping the Marines likely to side with Horus on the ships. Then they bombed the bejezuz out of the planet.

Custodian Athiair Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 ok right o it makes sense thanks guys just a quick thing i thought that Tarvitz fought in the Battle for Istvaan V becuase he was killed by Lucius? or is that not true becuase i don't see any mention of him at the battle of Istvaan V thanks Athiair ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156222-i-am-confused/#findComment-1828049 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrus Manus Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 No, Tarvitz got stuck on Istvaan III. Lucius didn't kill Tarvitz, Lucius killed Demeter. Hope that helps.

Ferrus Manus Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 No one knows, yet. It has been hinted that he may have escaped on some shuttles hidden deep beneath Istvaan's surface.
