Verythrax Draconis Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hi, I would like to present to you guys my review of the Forge World book Horus Heresy Book One - Betrayal: http://canyoudigit.blog.com/2012/11/26/rev...k-one-betrayal/ I focused this review on the book content, since most of the reviews I've found were rushed "me first" attempts, talking just how the book was beautiful and such. I didn't covered all chapters, mainly focusing on the Legions' fluff and lists. I hope you guys like it. Please post you feedback, it will be greatly appreciated. If you feel that something wasn't covered in a satisfactory way, tell me, and I will add it to a second review, that will cover the other parts of the book not covered in this one.

Nova_Dew Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Please Proof read before posting sorry but at times it got a bit hard to figure out what you meant... Other than that not bad.. notes: Availability of Terminator Armour is on page 237 Apothecaries are not a Consul but a separate 1-3 Elites choice The base army list presented is the basis for all further legion lists IIRC they are going to do another Istvaan III book at some point to cover the rest of the details so we might see the other units there Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266610-review-of-hh-book-one-betrayal/#findComment-3247121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found no info about that on the web. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266610-review-of-hh-book-one-betrayal/#findComment-3247125 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova_Dew Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 As for the Phfoghdrftg-- fancy pants guard and Lucius and all well Fulgrim didnt play that much of a big part at Istvaan III since he was at Istvaan V doing all the work on the fortifications and all Lucius did was ummm and arrr over what side to be on Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266610-review-of-hh-book-one-betrayal/#findComment-3247146 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've reviewed the text for typos and badly written sentences, so I hope it's a better read now :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266610-review-of-hh-book-one-betrayal/#findComment-3247182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
