nagashnee Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 some people don't buy the shorts though and prefer these anthologies every story, every format, eventually and all that Hence why i said they should reward the people who DO buy every story in every format. I have no issues with anthologies, lots of issues with how they chose to number the HH series, but this is neither the time or place. But a 10% off if you have x% of the stories bought as shorts or audios would be nice. Kinda like how some games will give you a discount if you own the first one?

Jareddm Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 For example, Eristede Kell, for all we knew, died or escaped at the end of Nemesis. If it wasn't for one short story, where he swears allegiance to Horus Lupercal, we'd be pretty puzzled why the guy is suddenly after Euphrati Keeler and comes to blows with Nathaniel Garro. Or we'd be missing out on most of the Thramas Crusade. Little Horus would still be wearing his face properly, Barabas Dantioch would be a surprise guest in the Imperium Secundus arc instead of somebody we'd have seen introduced in Age of Darkness, alongside other Imperium Secundus set-up stories. We wouldn't have seen Corax escape from Isstvan V, seen the Painted Count introduced prior to Pharos, in a story that made the situation of the Night Lords clearer than anything has in a dozen books before then. And that's not even touching on the novellas. As big a deal as those are, the real big one would be Loken showing up in Vengeful Spirit going, "Surprise! I'm actually alive!"

MarineRaider Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Seriously how does Malcador not burn Dorn's head? That is a serious flame. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/348225-hh-52-heralds-of-the-siege/page/2/#findComment-5108245 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCagh Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Dorn is made of stone, of course. Stone doesn't burn Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/348225-hh-52-heralds-of-the-siege/page/2/#findComment-5108796 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slan Drakkos Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Not even gonna lie, I'll probably buy the book just for that Dorn artwork. I'm not even a fan of the guy, but that art was so awesome that I audibly giggled.

Indefragable Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Seriously how does Malcador not burn Dorn's head? That is a serious flame. Dorn is made of stone, of course. Stone doesn't burn Holy crap....I thought that was like a big blazer on the fortress wall in the background...that thing's on his STAFF? Dude is real popular when he brings a box of graham crackers, some marshmellows, and a bar of chocolate, though...

Tymell Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 So it's Restorer that's being left out. Maybe since it cuts forward into the actual siege, they're putting it into a later Siege anthology?

bluntblade Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Hmm. It would fit either side of the threshold I guess. So long as it opens a Siege proper compilation.

bluntblade Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I do think it belongs more here. Presumably the Scars saga will itself be collected together before long.

Ascanius Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I assume they're gonna put "Restorer" in a Siege of Terra book, yeah, since that's more what it's about. It's even possible that it could be incorporated into a Chris Wraight book, the way James Swallow turned the Garro stories into a fixup novel.
