malorn24 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So .... If Curze can face and effectivley beat Guilliman and the Lion when its 2 on 1 .......and Vulkan can kick the living snot out of Curze ( or at least do a lot more damage than Guilliman and the Lion)...... and Damon Prytanis can kill Vulkan with eldar pistols to the face........ THEN can't we logically assume that Damon Prytanis can beat Guilliman and the Lion as well ????????? Now thats Paper , Rock, Scissors taken to the next level!

Wade Garrett Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 My favorite parts of Unremembered Empire are the stuff with Guilliman, Lion, and his mum, but doggone if Konrad putting that arrogant gasbag of a Perpetual in his place wasn't a close second.

Adra'Melek Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hate to be picky but paper, rock, scissors would mean that Guilliman and Lion could beat Damon. Not the other way round.

Jareddm Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 To be fair, Vulkan wasn't in what I'd call "top fighting condition", what with having painfully regenerated several times in the last hour and quite literally being out of his god-damn mind.

Stormborn Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 To me Damon feels out of place in a Dan Abnett novel, sort of thing mcneill, thorpe or ward might pull when desperate. Who knows what the cabla have done to Damon to make him an uber perpetual maybe he is one of the missing primarchs.

Scribe Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 You kidding, Damon is 100% Abnett. Just look at Legion, or Know no Fear. Its all Abnett's MO.

Scribe Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 lol if it had 'stalled' anyone but Konrad in that book, they would be a dead primarch. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291503-damon-prytanis-beast-or-what/#findComment-3698505 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrin Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Not sure what the word "logically" is doing in that post In short, no. That's not how reality works. Even a science-fiction alternate reality. Apart from that, personally I thought the ease in which Damon killed Vulkan (over and over and over) was just bad. Not going to start on an Unremembered Empire rant but that was a low point in the story for me.

Actually now that you mention it, I blocked that out, that was a bit odd, but then power levels and durability where not even remotely coherent in that book.

Did he ever say which side he was on during those two battles? Well seeing as he said he was 7th Cav and "those Sioux fought like hell" that ones obvious. And then since he was 7th Cav it's safe to assume he was a marine when Iwo Jima came around.

No reason why Damon couldn't have been a mailman on that island at that time. Caught in the crossfire.

Russ Brother 92 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Why would he have to be? Exactly - that and there were a fair few Japanese folks within the military on both sides ironically... But either way whilst I haven't read the above book/s it does seem a tad OP - especially for Abnett writing.

Reinholt Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Crazy question, but do we know perpetuals look the same every time they reincarnate? That seems to be the implication, but is it true?

In fact, I vaguely recall something from Legion about Grammaticus and how he had changed faces when reincarnated. But its early and I drank last night, so I may be inventing things.
