Skirax Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I was thinking the other day, surely the BL wont let the HH series rest after the siege of Terra, There is the Iron Cage, the klilling of Alpharius/Omegon, the disapearance of 4 Primarchs, the founding of the Grey Knights etc. that all happened before the 33rd mellenium ended, plus it is a HUUUUUGE selling point for GHW and BL, so I don't think they will let it lie there. Any thought on what might happen, and if there are any books suggested, Names for them? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159236-alas-the-siege-of-terra/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daren Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 It's hard to say as the Siege of Terra is probably a while off. However I'd like to see those events turned into Heresy era novels.

Grand Master Tyrak Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I reckon the series will end with the introduction of the Codex Astartes and the founding of the Imperium as we know it. There might be a few books beyond that, one for each of the Primarchs, to explain what happens to them (assuming we don't know already, so Ferrus Manus, Sanguinius, Horus etc. are out).

Chapter Master Kanithon Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 There's going to be 42 books spread over about 15 years... We're already into about the 4th year of that and have 8 books out with 3 more on the way. Hope this helps Kanithon.

Castus Xanthis Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 They will end the Horus Heresy series at the siege of terra and probably start a series called the "Scouring" to follow it.

Chapter Master Kanithon Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Where did you find that out if you dont mind me asking Chapter Master Kanithon? Good bit of info there! Well.... My mum works with people who also work with GW in HeadOffice in Nottingham. That's how I got my tour of Warhammer world, I've seen all the forges and behind the scenes too. Although I'm sworn to silence on that one but you can find out from other B+C members =] Does that solve it? <_< Did you also know that they give White Dwarfs away at Warhammer world every month? I think that's amazing :) Kanithon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159236-alas-the-siege-of-terra/#findComment-1867664 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you find out? I don't know it for a fact, it just makes sense. The Horus Heresy era did end by the fluff at the Siege, why not end the books there too? The next age is called the scouring, which is what I believe the next series will be.

Usopreme Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 All I'm worried about is the book about the blood angels, dealing directly with sanguinius and his legion. As awesome as it would be to get his first hand account on the battle I don't want to wait 15 years to read it!

Skirax Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 I want to see the battle of the Iron Cage. Go Imperial Fists! Whoo! Though I would like to see a story on the World Eaters Legion on something like, when they retreat to the Eye!

Vassakov Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 All the Legions will get at least one book - EC, Luna Wolves, Alpha Legion, DA and Death Guard have had theirs. We've also had one on the Mechanicus. Coming next, a Short story compliation, a second DA book to follow the first and then a pair of books on Prospero. My odds on after that would be maybe a shortish story trilogy in one book on the Sallies, Raven Guard and Iron Hands. As they played no part in the heresy following the Drop Site Massacre, they could be condensed down. An Iron Warriors book could focus on the Crusade up until Tallarn (massed Tank warfare between Guard and IW on a planet they nuke.) Blood Angels seem likely as do Fists and NL's, as all have had some significant references. (Well, NL's got a short story, Fists the same, plus quite a bit of cameo and Blood Angels are a must given the role they play and the aftermath.) That leaves me with Word Bearers and Ultramarines - Calth? Properly this time, maybe? I would expect the Siege itself to be a single book, with maybe a prior book focusing on some of the more minor battles from Istvaan to Earth, ending with Traitor Drop Pods falling to the surface of Terra, blotting out the light of the sun under a rain a blacked and corrupted pods. The battle of the Solar System is over... the war for Terra is begun.

Chapter Master Kanithon Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I'm sure there's going to be a book about the blood angels. There's that whole deal with them at Sangus or whatever that khorne ridden planet was called. That bit is quite important for the Blood Angels, it explains a lot about them. The other reason is because they were one of the Legions at the Siege of Terra. All things after the siege of terra...I have no idea. I hope they make some kind of books about them, dunno -shrugs- Kanithon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159236-alas-the-siege-of-terra/#findComment-1868439 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirax Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 I am sure Corax, Vulkan and the remaining Iron Hands will get a mention on their stories prior to and post Istvaan V Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159236-alas-the-siege-of-terra/#findComment-1869929 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Kanithon Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 The Signis Cluster, I believe. Correct. That's why you're a Grand Master and I'm just a servant. =] Do ONE story about the Raven Guard? Even a short one in another mini-story book. Mention Corax once? Like what's been said Corax will be get mentioned about his part in Istvaan V But I'm sure the Raven Guard will get some book about their expedition. Also, there's that whole thing about Corax using Cloning to make his Legion back and them all being mutates and how these mutants were pushed into battle and then how Corax didn't like that so gave them all The Emperors peace. And thennnnnnnn did that whole Nevermore thing. I love the Raven Guard =] Kanithon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/159236-alas-the-siege-of-terra/#findComment-1870241 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassakov Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 After the Istvaan V Massacre Corax attempted to rebuild his chapter using ancient cloning engines, or something like that. Either way it was inherently unstable and turned them inot monsters, nearly destroying the Legion (again.) Afterwards Corax ordered them destroyed and then left, saying "Nevermore" - a line from Edgar Allen Poes Poem, The Raven.
