Dumah Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 That has always been Lucius' biggest flaw, to my mind: he talks too damned much!

wtwhizz Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Lots of great quotes so far, but few or none from one of the most interesting and devilish Legions around. . . "Are we in agreement on this?" "Aren't we always?" -- Alpharius and Omegon discussing plans after Omegon uses Ranko and Co. to obliterate the alien device/station without Alpharius' knowledge I just love the game within a game within a game aspect of the Alpha Legion. Omegon turning on his brother opens up so many delicious possibilities.

Scribe Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 If we do, I certainly hope there is a ton of explaining around just how he is such a ninja as an 8 foot tall, 400 pound walking car.

And Saul Tarvitz. And...actually at this point it's easier to list the characters who HAVEN'T beaten up Lucius. Which by my count is...Kasper Hawser and Treyze the Sin Eater.

IIRC Loken just broke his nose before Lucius had realized the fight has started. The second bout went to Lucius eventually unless I remember it incorrectly.

Augustus Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 “IT HAD OFTEN been said that a Space Marine knew no fear. Such a statement was not literally true, a Space Marine could know fear, but he had the training and discipline to deal with it and not let it affect him in battle. Captain Saul Tarvitz was no exception, “he had faced storms of gunfire and monstrous aliens and even glimpsed the insane predators of the warp, but when Angron charged, he ran.” Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279695-quotes-that-struck-you-from-the-heresy-series/page/6/#findComment-3531295 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Garrett Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Fair fight. As in swordwork only, no kicks, grappels, or Loken nose breakersFor the second fight Sharrowkynopened by emptying the clip of a needler pistol at Lucius...who was swinging around a creepy tentacle whip thingie in addition to his sword. It still wasn't as awesome as the scene when Malcador takes him in "Flight of the Crimson Mark of the Prince of Unremembered Treachery". Granted, it was a cool Lucius moment when he sliced the boulder in half to show off his skills, but then Malcador is all "Boulder no hit back" and he calls Lucius out with those twin Chinese butterfly swords. It's still my favorite part of the novella. Even over Mortarion and Guilliman discussing philosophy while they're killing those squid ninja alien things.

TheAurelian Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 The entire scene of the Mornival facing off eachother on Isstvan III was by far one of the most inspirational for me. And the last stand of Saul Tarvitz with the rest of the loyalists.f when i first read this scene i pictured mozarts requiem playing and have some slowmo parts some really good facial expressions to let the betrayal really sink in. they need movies so bad Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279695-quotes-that-struck-you-from-the-heresy-series/page/6/#findComment-3572257 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memento Of Prospero Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Movies would not be able to grasp the scope of the events. The scale of is huge that if you would compare it to lord of the rings 3 3 and a half hour movies that skipped much, that could be like the opening 15 minutes to the Heresy. Too much ground to cover.
