c-wrex Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 gorechild, while big, always seemed to me to be too small for a big burly primarch. We know Angie used that big ole axe that was on the Furious Abyss, though I don't remember what it was called, and the naming convention of Gorechild seems to indicate that somewhere lies a Gorefather. Although I hope that wasn't the name of the axe in that HH book. Therefore, I believe that Angie prolly used daddy axe and lil Kharny had kiddy axe. Now, Vulkan and his pair of hammers, blacksmith style...that's hardcore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, Vulkan and his pair of hammers, blacksmith style...that's hardcore. You are correct, sir. There was a Gorefather. IIRC, Angron was running around with both Gorechild and Gorefather, which is basically Gorechild times ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satanaka Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Sanguinius - Spear Of Telesto, Blade Encarmine? Blade Encarmine was what I've understood for about 10 years. Ferrus Manus - giant wrench Forgebreaker is correct, as well as his iron hands. Fulgrim - Fireblade or Laeran Sword Pre - heresay, Fireblade, Post heresay, Laeran blade. Jaghatai Kahn - Giant falchion I believe it was Moonfang, now used by Kor'sarro Khan Corax - Raven's Talons maybe? I believe that is correct. Roboute Guilliman - Sword Of Guilliman or the Gauntlets Of Ultramar (post-Heresy) Sword of Guilliman Rogal Dorn I believe it may be both the Arrow of Dorn SB, carried by Pedro Kantor, and the Fist of Dorn TH, used by Lysander. Leman Russ - Spear Of Russ, a Frost Blade type sword, a Relic Blade type weapon, Bolt weapon The Spear of Russ is the right choice. Night Lord - Lightning Claws probably Unknown Lion El'Jonson - Lion Sword Bingo Vulkan - Spear Of Vulkan? Gauntlet Of The Forge? You forgot Kesare's Mantle, and Vulkan's Sigil. Mortatrion - Manreaper, Lantern Yep Angron - giant chain-glaive/pole-axe Gorefather and Gorechild Magnus The Red - Chain-khopesh Unknown Lorgar - Accursed Crozius Unknown Horus - Talon's Of Horus, giant mace Talon of Horus Perturabo - Forgebreaker Not until after Istvaan V. Otherwise, Unknown. And yes, I realize that GW retconned a lot of my info. I had to go back to some second edition books to look up and get the info I posted.

Midnightmare Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 After Isstvan V didn't Fulgrim roll with the Anathame sword after gifting the Laeren sword to Lucious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarKnight Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 After Isstvan V didn't Fulgrim roll with the Anathame sword after gifting the Laeren sword to Lucious? I believe at the end of Fulgrim it was still embedded in the statue after he killed the sculptor Delafour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 the emperor gifted Russ with his frostblade, but i forgot the name of it at the moment... the spear of russ didnt exist till the ragnar series, and was more of a trophy weapon than a weapon of war.

Ensis Ferrae Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 IIRC, in Fulgrim Corax used a sword, but somewhere during his time with the Ravens, he created a pair of lightning claws, which are now being used by captain shrike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Nihm Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 What weapon did Night Haunter use?His hands is the most commonly described, though he would use whatever was available to him, like for example the glaive/halberd he took from a slain Phoenix Guard in the short-story: The Dark King. He also used his Psychic Powers there. (yes!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WLK i dont think it could of wounded a primarch (magnus) if it was just a trophy well, not a primarch, but magnus isnt exaclty known for his HtH skills is he? ;) and it was a weapon of war, i stand corrected, but not one highly valued by Russ. in the series its later related that Russ lost that spear multiple times, and eventually left it on Garm.

Khestra the Unbeheld Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Yes. You're the ONLY ONE. Congrats. You have found a way to be unique.:PNot much beats a giant wrench when it comes to giving a glorious beatdown to some heretic fools. The lost Primarch Freeman of the Half-Lived used a master-crafted crowbar said to be of epic proportion. I guess that could give the wrench a run for its money. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazardousZERO Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 OK this is bothering me. Angron started out with his HUGE axe(don't know what its called) Then later sometime don't know when he got GOREfather AND GOREchild, witch Khârn later acquired don't know how but it is now in his possession.

Angron started out with his HUGE axe(don't know what its called) Then later sometime don't know when he got GOREfather AND GOREchild, witch Khârn later acquired don't know how but it is now in his possession. All that's known is this: 1. Angron's preferred weapon as a Primarch was the chain-glaive or a pair of chain-axes, reports vary depending on source. More than likely, the chainglaive is the true answer. 2. After his ascension to Daemon Prince, Angron used a monstrous daemon sword of Khorne at Armageddon prior to his banishment back to the Warp. 3. Khârn's given fluff states that he created Gorechild using the teeth of a mica dragon he slew in single combat. Since he's not recorded as having Gorechild at Terra when he supposedly "died", it's assumed he crafted Gorechild after the Heresy. I can't find anything to support the theory that Angron made Gorechild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I too find the whole wrench thing annoying, I find myself wondering why it was on there. Also, Ferrus used his bare hands, which were made from some unknown substance that enabled them to move like real hands, but be as hard as he needed them to be. Now, if he found a truly awesome wrench (not that puny thing in the picture) that would be awesome. Until then, it's annoying. Where are people getting the info that night haunter used his bare hands? There is little to no fluff on him, soo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Angron had Gorechild according to Battle for the Abyss. wrench = yuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronWinds Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I'm a primarch.I have wings. I have a sword, it's on FIRE. I'm Sanguinius. You're :ed. I'm Horus...... so much for those wings. I just finished Night Lord so I'm going with night haunter using the retractable lightning claws. On the same note... they are retractable. So he could have the claws and use his bare hands.

bjørn eirik Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 I just finished fulgrim, and Im pretty sure angron had twin swords. though, I might be wrong (I have been before, in 1992 I think :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Payton Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Sanguinius: Spear of Telesto, Blade Encarmine Rogal Dorn: Bolter, Sword of Dorn (broke it over his knee when couldn't protect emperor, late reforged into Sword of the High Marshals) Rouboute Guilliman: Gauntlets of Ultramar, Blade of Ultramar Jaghatai Khan: Never detailed, up to you. Magnus: Chain Kopesh Horus: Talon of Horus and power maul Ferrus Manus: Forgebreaker, later the 'giant wrench' (after Fulgrim nicked Fbreaker) Fulgrim: Fireblade, Laeran Sword Leman Russ: Spear of Russ, Freki and Geri (thunderwolves) and his Sword, which was forged from a kraken's tooth. Vulkan: Presumably Spear of Vulkan-it is an artefact of Vulkan, though it is never described as being specifically his. Background and wording sugest this though. Perturabo: Forgebreaker, which he later gave to a Warsmith. Warsmith promptly dies and it is returned to Iron Hands. Before he was give Forgebreaker, unknown. Mortarion: Manreaper, Xenos pattern energy pistol Corax: Unknown-he never actually used the Raven's Talons Angron: The chain-axe Brazentooth. Later replaced by Gorefather and Gorechild. Later replaced by runesword. Later replaced by Angron's Black Blade. Gorechild given to Khârn. Lorgar. Artwork indicates bolter and a type of crozius arcanum. Hope that has cleared it up.
