The Lion, Wolf King, and Howl of the Hearthworld

[Splog]

I'm hoping the HH ends with the line it started with.

Indefragable

'Alpha Legion: juicy one. Probably same as the other Istvaaners' - nope, Watch Pack assigned to AL was killed by Alpharius in Hunter's Moon (Audio Drama) by Haley.

 

 

Good catch. I'll update.

 

I forgot about that one. I actually read it in the anthology. I didn't realize it was about a Watchpack lol.

 

You're welcome. Glad to help

I may be disappointed if it doesn't. Not nerd rage disappointed, but I do think it would be a perfect Capstone to the final moments of the Heresy.

 

Then I want to see the Scouring.

Corax/Russ is post-Malice above the Palace? I thought it was pre- for some reason.

 

Edit: it is pre-siege of terra. Corax sends off his "Long Shadows" to Terra, in which is included a Librarian to receive Malcador's judgement.

Just a question an how that event from 'Corax' anthology has anything to do with 'The Scouring' period?

It doesn't. I went back to re-read the part he was talking about, and it is most definitely before the Scouring, before even the Siege of Terra. Horus is still alive during that time frame.

[Biscuittzz]

@NKCougar. The epilogue of Corax is where he decides the fates of the raptors and also notes how his Legion have taken new names and gone their own way. Iirc it even states that the Emperor is gone. So that part is Scouring era.

 

The Corax/Russ parts on Yarant are pre-siege.

[hopkins]

see, i was half right

russ was in his primarch book

Yeah, the epilogue is in that time period. I want to see the Fists and Ultramarines rampage on the traitors, more specifically though.

 

Especially the Black Templars going nutty.

[HeritorA]

'Especially the Black Templars going nutty.' - or one particular 'Black Templar' going nutty?

[NKCougar]

'Especially the Black Templars going nutty.' - or one particular 'Black Templar' going nutty?

One in particular, yes. Show him cutting a bloody swathe through traitors, why he was named Champion, and especially show me his pursuit of Abaddon - that quote in the end of Black Legion sets up that storyline perfectly.

I'm not even going to pretend. The idea of Sigismund going all out on the traitors makes me tingle from my head to my toes

 

I usually skip a limited-edition books, but that is one I am definitely buying

[b1soul]

I hope Sig ends some famous Traitors

Of course he does, Swagismund does that to (nearly) everyone. I'll be all over Sigismund fluff as soon as it comes out. Unfortunate that ADB has postponed his Black Legion stories, so looked forward to the final duel.

 

I think another Scouring story to see will be the Blood Angels. They will be the hardest hit legion after the Heresy, hands down, but I'm sure Azkaellon and the Flesh Tearer will be chewing up traitors left and right. The Scouring will be bad times for them, I think, with the Black Rage waxing.

[b1soul]

All the famous Traitors survive the Siege...

 

1. Lucius, Julius Kaesoron, Fabius (not sure about Eidolon),

2. Khârn

3. Typhon

4. Ahriman, Amon

5. Abbadon

6. Erebus, Kor Phaeron

 

Sig could beat Khârn...Khorne then resurrects him. The latter is pretty well-established fluff. Maybe he could off Delvarus? No...but Delvarus makes it to the Scouring, no?

 

Aximand will probably face Loken.

 

There's one other famous Traitor who could be a famous victim of Sig...but it doesn't really fit his current character arc. I'm sure you all know to whom I'm referring ;)

Eidolon has a fluff entry in the EC Index Astartes series (White Dwarf 255 which was in 2001 so 3rd edition?) which suggests he made it off Terra but may have died after

Lord Eidolon was the first Space Marine selected by Fulgrim to lead an entire company of the Emperors Children, and was commonly regarded as the most proficient of all the Lord Commanders. Until the corruption of the Legion, Eidolon dedicated himself to mastering all aspects of warfare. His troops fought equally well in sieges, holding actions, rapid strikes and gruelling campaigns, never displaying any inexperience or inefficiency no matter what was demanded of them.
 

Eidolon regarded Fulgrim as a father in the literal sense, considering his bond of gene-seed to be as strong as true parentage. Though he accepted that he could never equal the Primarch in power. Eidolon nevertheless spent every waking moment studying Fulgrim's tactics and strategies, his writings and orations, in the hope of being as close to his leader's perfection as he could possibly become. Despite considerable effort, scholars in the service of the Inquisition have been unable to determine whether or not Eidolon survived the Siege of Terra. Unsubstantiated rumours claim that Eidolon is responsible for hundreds, if not thousands, of gruesome raids on Imperial worlds in the past ten thousand years, and have suggested he may have served as lieutenant to Abaddon the Despoiler, consort to Queen Sylelle and champion of the Daemon Prince N'Kari. No Inquisitor has yet succeeded in locating the source of these rumours, but. without undisputable evidence, the Inquisition will not declare Eidolon dead.

Kaesoron alive - he is mentioned in the 'Wraith of Iron' prominently. As per other big names you mentioned.

 

Sigi faced Khârn and killed him but as we know Khorne likes Khârn (Khârn for Khorne is like Agriman for Tzeentch - amazing plaything) and ressurrected him later to fully follow the Red Path. Delvarus is alive - A D-B mentioned him as still kicking in his 'Black Legion'. Plus as per Lothara rebuke in one amazing book I do not think he would teleport to the Palace from a ship which he is 'HONOR BOUND' to guard

 

Aximand will be chopped by Loken - think so too.

 

'There's one other famous Traitor who could be a famous victim of Sig' - whome do you mean?  Eidolon survived till M32 as a fact.

[b1soul]

Not Eidolon...it's an easy guess ;)

[HeritorA]

I'm tired today, hard guerssing today - so you could spill it out for me

[MasterofMankind]

I assume he means Sevatar.

 

Personally I've been thinking the same thing ever since their duel was mentioned in prince of crows - no way they'd mention that without some pay off, especially with Sigismund's comment.

[b1soul]

Yeah...but Sev's repressed psychic exertions recently made his brain bleed.

 

I'm not sure how he's gonna return to fighting form...he has to fix that problem somehow

[MasterofMankind]

Weren't his reflexes and senses enhanced when he went psyker at the end of PoC? Maybe he'll do it again on Terra, evening or even beating the odds against Siggy, and just as he has him on the ropes another brain pop happens.

I can't even imagine Sev fighting in the Siege, at this point. He's lost all belief in either side.

 

And although there are probably 10-20 Space Marines that could get Siege-era Sigismund on the ropes, those would likely be brief/lucky moments at best in a losing battle. Anyone going up against Siege-era Sigismund isn't going home to their kids afterwards.

[MasterofMankind]

Mmm, he might have lost all belief but what else is there for him? Somehow I don't see Sevatar retiring on an agriworld and becoming a local taxidermy expert :D
