Pssstt. . . .don't tell anyone, but that [probably] wasn't Guilliman. Or any Ultramarine, really. :P

 

In point of fact, it is possible that Roboute Guilliman was both Alpharius and Omegon all along, with the recruits from the XX Legion's "unknown" homeworld in fact being drawn from the hundred worlds of Ultramar.

 

Some may ponder how such a thing could be, citing the issues of Alpharius, Omegon, and Guilliman all being seen in a variety of places at more or less the same time, and even fighting against one another on Eskrador.

 

What these people forget that, according to Know No Fear, Roboute Guilliman was a master of LOGISTICS, whose ability to move troops and material could not even be comprehended by a non-Primarch mind, and could not be matched by any of his brothers. Ergo, it was child's play for him to manuver troops into an asteroid field and use his superior capability at LOGISTICS to manuver his way onto the Vengeful Spirit's bridge, while at the same time commanding the XIII Legion's Crusade.

 

The guy sitting on the stasis throne at Maccrage is either Sheed Ranko, Garro, or Sevatar. I'm awaiting Betrayer and Unremembered Empire before I conclusively decide which of those three it is for certain.

 

Made my day! :D

grendal is still alive same with toramino

 

they are both in dead sky black sun novel same with that dreadnought

 

oh and ultramarines have no history of that conflict with the alpha legion so ultramarines had nothing to do with it

Added the 2 Iron Warriors.

 

Question: Should I include daemons?

 

I wouldn't. Daemons can't actually die (though I guess they could be reabsorbed into their patron god or something), so it's not really worth noting that they're still around in 40k.

Sor talgron is the the Warmaster in Dark Apostle, and Marduk and Kol Badar too.

Sor Talgron seems to be dead. Adding the other 2!

Yeah I guess so...

 

Didn't Argel Tal die during the Siege of Terra?

 

We don't know about Horus Aximand and Maloghurst.

Yeah, that's why all of them have the maybe status.

Eidolon has served as a lieutenant to Abaddon the Despoiler, a consort to Queen Sylelle as well as a champion of the Daemon Prince N'Kari.

 

if you have read angel exterminates then you would know why ive put eidolon on the list

A quote from one of the latest ABD post on his blog:

I’m trying to show a greater number of Traitor characters that actually die, that aren’t around in 40K, because from my perspective there’s enough focus on the main 40K Big Bads. If none of the Red Team die in the HH series, then they’d win the war. So the point of a character like Argel Tal is that he’s not around in 40K. He’s a major character in the 30K era, but he dies in the heresy. The Traitor Legions lose, after all. They need to take real casualties.

 

Argel Tal is dead in 40k.

Argel Tal is dead in 40k.

 

Ok, that is pretty definite. I was still hoping for him to become a DP or something. ;)

Betrayer updates, Argel Tal is dead, Khârn is still kicking, Kargos Bloodspitter(who I believed posed for a certain artwork featuring a plain of skulls and a fiery Khorne Berzerker) is "officially" introduced and is going to survive and that's about it. Can't really comment on who in the Heresy series is actually going to survive until it either ends or they show up in a 40k-era publication, such as Astelan, Talos, Xarl, Uzas, Cyrion, the Exalted, Mercutian, Malek and others have. Although for the Iron Warriors you missed Kroeger, Forrix and Berrosus.

Thanks for the Betrayer updates! Although the news about Argel Tal make me sad as hell. :(

Well yes and no. I'd include characters introduced in the HH and as "maybe alive" until there is some evidence that they are either alive or dead.

An example for this is Sigismund. Although there is nothing that states that he is actually dead it seems very likely to me as there have been other Grand Marshalls after him... and GMs tend to remain GMs as long as they live.

Aren't all 3 of them dead by now? :)

They might be dead in 999.M41, but they are still kicking in M41. If you want survivors of the Horus Heresy who are still present in 40k, they are technically still there, even though they died at the end. Perhaps it might be an idea you give us clearer criteria regarding this, makes our jobs a lot easier. :-)

Lepaca, if "dead in 40k" excludes someone from the list, then I don't think any Iron Warriors survived as Toramino was killed by the Heart of Blood at the very end of Dead Sky, Black Sun and Cadaras Grendel was killed in Chapter's Due. The only ones alive are Barban Falk and Perturabo by virtue of ascending to daemonhood.

 

And I was saying that I can't comment on who will or will not survive. Sorry.

The name of the thread is "survivors of the heresy", isn't then a better idea to use that as a criteria? So, who survived the Heresy? Who lived after the Siege of the Imperial Palace? If the characters are known to have died later on that's a different story, but not that relevant.
