That's intriguing. I'm going to have to root around for my copy of KNF now. ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307600-how-long-did-the-hh-last/page/2/#findComment-4046460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sevatar Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I would very much like to see the retribution of the Iron Hands during the Scouring. Would be extremely satisfying.

I'd say that classifies a 'Sundered' in this context.

I would agree, if the Salamanders or RG got equal billing under the "Sundered" title...but the novellas seem to sprinkle the Salamanders or RG on the various "Sundered" Iron Hands stories, and even then its usually just to be a contrast to the Iron Hand's character (which seems to be a mix of blind, stubborn and willfully dumb) WLK Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307600-how-long-did-the-hh-last/page/2/#findComment-4046530 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luther - the fallen Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 In the end, the question of the length of the Horus Heresy boils down to one simple question: When did it end? Did it end with the death of the Warmaster? With the last traitors (not counting NL and AL doing their thing around the galaxy) retreating to the Eye? I'd go as far as to say that for some the Heresy isn't over, it's simply been renamed "the Long War" ;) (Yes I play 40K Chaos :P ) - luther Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307600-how-long-did-the-hh-last/page/2/#findComment-4046545 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argh! No! You shush. Shush now. It's off-topic and needs shushing. Let's see, Heresy. Length of. Used to be seven years long, might be eight and a half now. There. On-topic.
