ferrus Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I really hope so. I had heard that the plan was to do all the primarchs and if they include their dad even better Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469742 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adra'Melek Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hope not. No rules or model of the Emperor I hope.

Conn Eremon Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 There is a new one, Eddie, by the current HH artist. Don't have it saved on my phone. Â Thing is, what rules could you give him?

Cerbero666 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 If the intention is doing the HH playable, and the final battle includes the Emperor, obviously they have to release him. But how? For the model I got some hopes it will end pretty well, since Simon Egan has been doing a great job with the primarchs, I'm sure he will sculpt an awesome Big E. The rules, this is the hard part, but FW got my trust right now, after what I've seen in the first book and the glimpse on the second. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hisdudeness Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I'm pretty sure that during the first HH Q&A release before we knew about the Primarchs they were asked about all of them and the answer was yes, he would be made. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469858 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuskRaider Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Don't expect amazing stats physically, he's not a Primarch. He's something of a Perpetual in augmetic armor (much like Kor Phaeron), but his real strength is in his psychic powers. I'd expect your best bet to see what his rules may be like is to wait for Magnus. He won't have crazy Primarch stats, but he will be a lot better Psyker wise. One way to find out, though.

Conn Eremon Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 He'd better have better than crazy Primarch stats. They are lesser copies of him, both psychically and physically. He's not small, or normal. Every time he appears as such, when he changes he is casting off an image. Like in The Last Church and many of his first meetings with the Primarchs. He's not a Kor Phaeron or Luther. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I surely hope so, I want all the primarchs and the Emperor. After that I can die happy. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469898 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I bet his stats are not (numerically) higher than all the Primarchs. If, IF, Horus 'saved' him, then physically, he is not above the Primarchs. Â On a psyker level though? Far far above, and this augments his perceived power level. Â All imo of course.

Conn Eremon Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 It took all four Chaos Gods pumping all of their favor into Horus for him to compete with the Emperor on a physical level, and his psyker powers were even higher than that. Fully boosted Horus should represent the lowest potential of the Emperor.

DuskRaider Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Physically he's human. It's his psychic ability which makes him so spectacular. The Primarchs aren't just "lesser copies", they're creations that combine the Emperor's abilities with Warp power all in a superhuman frame. Physically any of the Primarchs could probably overpower the Emperor, and Horus quite easily mauls his father. It's the psychic attack that drives out the Chaos Gods and ultimately does Horus in.

FunkyMonkey Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I don't think the Chaos Gods were putting all of their effort into Horus. Â They put a great deal of power into it, but it's highly doubtful that they'd be distracted from the Great Game long enough to have a single-minded focus on the material world. Â More likely they were playing chess while checking TV for a sports game or something.

Conn Eremon Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 They were distracted by the Great Game the whole Heresy. The newest Daemons Codex says it was the last time they unified their efforts. Â Physically, the Emperor is far more than just a human. For one thing, his mastery of biomancy means he is whatever he wants physically. That is why he is able to appear normal. But every time he is 'normal,' he 'casts off the disguise/glamour' and presto, he's mega-human again. He doesn't don the mask of gianthood, he casts off the mask of normalcy.

DuskRaider Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 He's still no where near the physical prowess of a Primarch. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280627-hh-emperor/#findComment-3469992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Eremon Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 It's the other way around. Horus, one of the best Primarch fighters around before his corruption, is upped to the max by the full, utter favor of the four Chaos Gods, and yet the Emperor fights him to a bloody standstill before, at the very end, killing Horus with a mind bullet. Mortals<Astartes, Astartes<Primarchs, Primarchs<Chaos Horus, Chaos Horus< or =the Emperor.
