great punch ups


Recommended Posts

I have just reread the bit where there was a very cool showdown between maggard and Qruze on the flight deck of the flagship as sindermann et al were trying to escape

 

young upcoming youth and vitality vs old relic past sell by date.

 

and cunning and will to win won the day as Qruze layed the smackdown showing its not the age its the milage.

 

whether iacton can still cut it vs full legiones astartes will no doubt be seen and half heard soon in the future past future....

I really liked the loyalists Saul Tavitz inspired resitance of Horus' betreyal.

 

As for one on ones Lucius v Loken round 1 was brilliant. If only because of the amount of warnings Loken gave him!

 

I fully expect Sangunius Vrs Blood Thirster (sorry cannot remember his name) round 1 and 2 to be pretty awesome.

 

However Logar getting his proverbial handed too him by Corax is definately my number 1.

 

I really hope that the Big E vrs Horus does not play out like in the Visions of Heresy Book. I am praying for a massive battle royal where the Gods of Chaos pour all their power into Horus and realise just what they are about to create in the Big E. Also hope that Sangunius really has opened up a gap in his armour that makes a difference.............

My favorite part in the whole series is defnitely in Galaxy in Flames where the world eater captain tells Sault Tarvitz (I think?) to run. Tarvitz says "The Emperor's Children never run!" Ehrlen says "You do from this!" as Angron leaps out into the guns blazing at him roaring his fury. - That part always gives me chills!

i've just remembered 4 more, are they up there do ya think?

 

1. Loken whacking Lucius in the nose in the sparring cage - i know already mentioned but was a great moment!

 

2. the truth dawning on Tarvitz when he finds Lucius surrounded by dead emperor's children and then knowing he probably won't win, has a good go at it anyway against the vain turncoat ne'erdowell.

 

3. The Garantine going out in a blaze of glory vs Sons of Horus

 

4. and also from Nemesis, spear's final scrap against all assasins that were left

 

the character of spear i have also just just reminded myself was brilliant, he is summed up very well here :

 

"Spear is one of the most memorable characters in the Horus Heresy series, and it saddens me that he wont be coming back. But he had an excellent run.

'The Emperor protects,' Segan said aloud. 'The Emperor protects.'

Spear opened his spiked jaws. 'He really doesn't,' said the murderer."

 

- absolutely chilling!
