New Artwork for Books?

Bion Henricos - But he's dead, they ain't going backwards are they? :/

Having had the pleasure of reading Meduson, it includes Grey Talon, which links together the repentant White Scars from Scars, Bion Henricos and the short story Little Horus. Suffice it to say, Henricos was not happy to be working alongside former traitors.

 

To complete the quote, "I fought as my legion was being cut apart. I have fought every second since. You didn't even know who the enemy was!" -spoken to Hibou Khan

So is he dead or not? Cause I liked the guy from one of the earlier short stories when he was the more human like Iron Hand who worked with the normal humans to fight Eldar when they emped the Iron Hands.

[Jareddm]

Oh he's dead. This was just an in-between story. To wrap up the ending of Scars and give some context to Little Horus.

[goosey_j]

Sucks Bion Henricus died. One of the best characters of the Heresy imo. Would've been a prime candidate for a Dreadnaught as well.

I'd love to read a story about Death Guard pasting some Ultramarines. Sick of seeing the Loyalists win.

We both know Black Library will never allow that, even when they loose, they win, or do it with outstanding, untouchable grace.

To paraphrase Sassoon;

 

"They can't believe that Ultramarines retire,

When hell's last horror breaks them, and they run,

Trampling the terrible corpses - blind with blood.

Oh Macraggan mother knitting by the fire,

While you are knitting socks to send your son,

His face is trodden deeper in the mud."

So called the cover for Path of Heaven!

 

2016 is shaping up to be a good year for heresy

Where have the Ultramarines won?

 

They lose in 'Know No Fear'. Or rather, the battle was turned into a "success" for the Word Bearers, while the Ultramarines manage to not be completely wiped out by a Word Bearers force a fraction of their strength, without being able to prevent them from achieving their objectives and while being horribly mauled. Guilliman is beaten up by Kor Phaeron.

 

They lose in 'Betrayer'. One of their main production worlds is overrun, and after that the Ultramarine commanders are completely outmaneouvered by sublimely gifted Word Bearer ship captains and titan commanders, and get again completely mauled by the enemy. Guilliman is beaten up by Angron and Lorgar.

 

They lose in 'Unremembered Empire'. Well, there is no actual military engagement in the book, just Curze running amok on Macragge, and it is implied that the Dark Angels would have taken them out if it had come to the worst. Guilliman is beaten up by a squad of Alpha Legionaries.

 

From what I have heard, they lose in 'Vengeful Spirit'. TSome Ultramarines show up all disciplined and coordinated, but are then routed by the Sons of Horus anyway. At least Guilliman is not beaten up this time.

 

Also from what I have heard, they lose in 'Pharos'. Apparently they Ultramarine defenders kill more Night Lords. Before they are overrun. Guilliman is not beaten up, but put in his place by Sanguinius.

 

In 'HH5: Tempest' the Ultramarines Legion loses against a technologically advanced xenos species. In the later rematch, Guilliman cunningly defeats the xenos by swarming them with everything they've got.

 

In the short 'Rules of Engagement' the entire doctrine of the Ultramarines is ridiculed.

 

 

They don't exactly put on a good show in the Horus Heresy series. Well, I guess they won in 'Furious Abyss', didn't they?

[Brother-Chaplain Kage]

I tried to tidy up those images some, including some color correction for the purple Night Lord.

JUST NOTICED SONS OF HORUS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE GREY TALON ARTWORK

 

HYPE MODE: ENGAGED

[Taliesin]

No artwork for Crimson King previewed...I wonder if this is still slated for a 2016 release. Either way, my copy turned up and the calendar is lovely :-)

 

Graham McNeill recently said he is working on it again after an absence due to his move to the US, and expected a 2016 release.

 

Clearly there will be things published that are not on this calendar, as the calendar in any case only includes a few things that haven't been published yet.

 

The Path of Heaven cover is truly, truly awesome. Great to see the Chris Wraight novel confirmed.

Master of Mankind , Crimson King & Angels of Caliban are the ones not featured that we expect in 2016. Big question is, will that actually happen?

 

With Grey Talon confirmed to be a shorter Wraight story, and Red-Marked most likely a shorter story as well, we now know everything that is on the calendar.

[Taliesin]

I think the December artwork is new as well. With the Emperor and Horus during the great crusade.

 

That's apparently for the Eye of Terra anthology, consisting of reprints of stories regarding early Crusade.

 

Quite interesting to me.

[khorneguy]

Mr. White Scar with the skull face painting, I'd like to meet him and learn his story. What makes him tick, and how does he like his tea?

Can't remember his name, but Grey Talon has already been released as part of Meduson.

 

iirc he's the guy who led the White Scars rush team on Horus Aximand and Dwell and gets Mourn-it-all in the the guts for his trouble.

 

He's one of the penitent Scars who the Khan ordered to go out and join the Shattered Legion cells after infighting above Prospero

My point was not really that they never loose, the point was (in a joking fashion, all though I am not very good at pushing that across) that they are always shown to be the strategic gods when compared to other Legions or unparalleled in combat. It was not a serious comment.

All I would like to comment is they may not have been out numbereed in KNF. Keep in mind the wb had many more army troops and thousands of daemons.

 

Looking forward to all of these

I meant Loyalists in general, bub.

 

When I see a picture of Death Guard against Ultramarines, I don't think, "I can't wait to see my Legion in action!"

 

I think, "I wonder how they'll turn my Legion into generic mustache twirling villains that will outnumber the Loyalists and still somehow lose, because Loyalists."

Cool it off right now.
