Custom_Hobby Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 About the Guilliman VS Fulgrim.. Maybe Fulgrim was armed with something that causes instant death (to compare game wise, in the previous Chaos codex the EC had such a daemon weapon if I'm not mistaken) So he just left because he thought Guilliman would die anyway.. They had to put Him in stasis to prevent the poisons from spreading or something like that.. (it's in the IA volume somewhere) Didn't Fulgrim still have Anathame?

Captain Idaho Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Uh, the Ultramarines victory sounds like tenuous reasoning... It looks like Fulgrim inflicted a fatal wound on Guiliman and then left him so his Legion could find him, a body is so much more demoralizing than a disappearance after all. Something he has first hand experience of, after all, he killed Ferrus Mannus, and the Iron hands claim he disappeared and will return! You think an Ultramarines victory sounds like tenuous reasoning, yet you have speculated completely yourself on the resolution of the mindset of a Daemon possessed Primarch? Gulliman did not banish Fulgrim, Fulgrim left of his own accord. Quote me a reason please, as otherwise it is just your own opinion. I at least cited precedent that leads to my conclusion.

jb85 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Maybe the Emp Children's Primarch had enough satisfaction from knowing that he had bested Gulliman? And in any case, who knows the motivations of a creature such as Fulgrim, and especially when the story is not laid out in full? Regarding the combat between Gulliman and Fulgrim on Thessala, here is a little extract from the IA article for those interested: None who were present on that day can say for sure what happened, yet when the cloying musks cleared, the Emperor's Children were gone and Roboute Guilliman lay unmoving, a single bright slash of blood across his throat. Not even the Primarch's god-like physique could halt the spread of Fulgrim's poison and, as Guilliman died, the Apothecaries set up a stasis field and transported their leader back to Macragge. To this day, Roboute Guilliman remains entombed within the stasis field, held immobile on his marble throne in the Temple of Correction on Macragge. There are those who claim that the Primarch's wounds are healing, but this is clearly impossible within the time-locked bubble of a stasis field. Despite this self-evident fact, many believe such tales and await the time when Guilliman will be fully recovered. It would seem contrarty to the behaviour of the Emperors Children in the HH NovelFulgrim. Based on that you would have expected Guilliman's body to be mutilated by Fulgrim. Given that Horus was able to continue figthing after being wounded by the Anathame, it is conceivable that Guilliman fought and defeated Fulgrim, suffering a wound which layed him low shortly after the battle. But the only extract on the fight provides precious little evidence to back up any of the suggestions put forward as to what actually happened.
