HH 54: The Last Gate - Within the scarlet shadow of angelic wings are legends made - Written by A D-B, released December 2019 LOL. Well played ;) But you are wrong with the number - HH titles 49-55 - all recycled stuff of shorts and audios for you again - just to milk you a little bit more :) HH 59: The Last Gate - Released December 2021 ;) DarKnight 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1soul Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Including five or six other Legionaries in one novel out of several isn't a big deal It really isn't a big deal I'm looking forward to whatever Siege novel you put forth Like I said...glad the Watch Pack on Terra has not been forgotten especially when I said they'd be main characters with a Blood Angel. Like... we can't all write White Scars and Imperial Fists novels. Let some of us do other stuff, I beg ya. Sounds good to me... In fact, some SW + WS cooperation at the Siege would be very interesting to read (or SW + BA) HeritorA 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkChaplain Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 As long as it doesn't turn out like much of Abnett's output, where his characters tend to overshadow the ongoing events. John Grammaticus, as an example, was a neat idea in Legion but has since become pretty overbearing in my opinion. Either way, I'm lukewarm on the idea as of now. Howl of the Hearthworld itself didn't do much for me I'm afraid, probably due to the short story format. It had neat ideas but didn't enthrall me like a lot of AD-B's other stuff. Kinda like the Anti-Kyme: The more room Aaron has to tell his stories, the better they tend to be, whereas Nick's short stories average on pretty satisfying whereas his novels falter a bit. Of course, that's just how I see things. Unlike certain others, I don't mean to speak for anybody else. HeritorA 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarKnight Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I can't find the Master of Mankind thread but AD-B if you're able to answer, when The Emperor is communicating with Ra and transports them to Ullanor he tells Ra that only three primarchs asked him when he emerged when he did. Are you able to tell us which three asked and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelborn Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) Every author should be able to write something for the Big E vs Horus fight. At least one line as a recognition of their work. Or Dan should write it. He started it at all. He should have the chance to end it as well. *edit* Ninja'd by A D-B. ^^ Edited June 5, 2017 by Kelborn R_F_D 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tymell Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 What are people's thoughts on those short stories in the subject? The Lion - I liked it, I can see why it's a controversial one to some, but I enjoyed it. Wolf King - Solid novella. If Prospero Burns was a look at the VIth Legion, Wolf King is the look at Leman Russ himself, and how the war is affecting him. Howl of the Hearthworld - Great stuff, really looking forward to seeing more of them at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tymell Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 The only ones we know the fates of are those sent to the Night Lords, Blood Angels, Imperial Fists, Alpha Legion, Ultramarines and Raven Guard. The other 10 legions we don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be incredible, but what would be even better is continuing that on to his duel with Horus. After all, to quote 1D4 and your tendencies for brutally murdering fan favorite characters, 'Reading his books, especially the Horus Heresy ones, is like watching him rip your heart out and chew on it while he coos "Was it good for you too?"' Really though, aside from the end of Galaxy in Flames, you've written some of the most traumatic scenes in the settings and done them very well. I don't think I would want any other BL author to cover Sanguinius' final moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indefragable Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) I liked Wolf King, I got the limited edition one. Good read. On the subject of Watch Packs and every Primarch having one? Where was ours then? Or did they die fighting alongside the Morlocks on Istvaan V? My understanding is that the Watch Packs were sent out either after the Istvaan massacre or simultaneous to it, so the one for the Iron Hands probably never made it. Or the Watch Pack assigned to the X Legion made a joke about "sum udder bas'rd geddin' that head furst!" in typical space viking fashion. The one assigned to the XIX Legion gets....sidetracked... in http:// http://www.blacklibrary.com/all-products/raptor-cd.html In wich book / novel / short / whatever is the NL Watch Pack covered? The short "The Watcher". Sons of Horus Watch Pack covered in Weregeld. Good point, forgot that one. Ah great tidbits. Need to read up on those. Speaking of Watch Packs and what they did.... Compilation of what we know about them: I Dark Angels: unknown II n/a III Emperor's Children: n/a due to mild case of being traitor IV Iron Warriors: traitoritis V White Scars: unknown, but speculation would be that they tried to find the V Legion, but based on the events of Scars through Path of Heaven, and the WS general slipperiness, it's a safe guess they never made it VI Space Wolves: n/a for obvious reasons VII: Imperial Fists: see Howl of the Hearthworld VIII: Night Lords: see The Watcher IX: Blood Angels: get a mild case of"Red Thirst-ed" by the BA due to the chaos machinations in Fear to Tread X: Iron Hands: unknown, but probably were not sent due to how badly mauled the X got after Istvaan XI: n/a XII: World Eaters: unknown XIII: Ultramarines: lounge near the fireplace outside Guilliman's study, generally being bored and trying to make themselves useful (kinda). See Unremembered Empire and other Imperium Secundus stories. XIV: Death Guard: unknown XV: Thousand Sons: see Prospero Burns XVI: Sons of Horus: see Weregeld XVII: Word Bearers: see X Legion entry above XVIII: Salamanders: see X Legion entry above XIX: Raven Guard: see (listen) Raptor audio drama XX: Alpha Legion: Alpha Legion gonna' Alpha Legion. SW don't end up so well as seen in Hunter's Moon. EDIT: added Alpha Legion Edited June 7, 2017 by Indefragable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tymell Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 The packs were sent out after Magnus revealing he had broken the edict of Nikaea, so before the Isstvan Massacre. The Alpha Legion's pack can be seen in Hunter's Moon. Indefragable 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
