b1soul Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I am guessing FW is going to skip this based on the in-universe authour's lack of knowledge ...but I would really like to see how FW might salvage the mess that is Imperium Secundus. Perhaps a different in-universe authour writes the historical text on these events?

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Are we likely to get any more on Secundus? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363512-forge-world-imperium-secundus/#findComment-5513163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerOrders Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Surprisingly plausible. Its discussed in Malevolence quite a bit. When referring to where Sanguinius was going next and talking about the Custodian that got wounded. It also seems that the writer has a predictably dim view of the whole thing. Honestly, it makes me wonder if they will ever expand on exactly who the writer is.

Honestly, it makes me wonder if they will ever expand on exactly who the writer is. Plot twist: the writer is a member of a traitor legion / a remembrancer who was with the traitor legions who started loyal to Horus, but had a falling out with them at one point or another during the Horus Heresy and self-isolated himself to write the story of those times in a prison / as a hermit in exile. Maybe linked to the Thousand Sons / Alpha Legion to explain why they know so much?

The entire length isnt spent browbeating about the inferiority of every other Legion, especially the Ultramarines. Wait nvm.

b1soul Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) AK = Alpharius Kek That'd be great Edited April 28, 2020 by b1soul Scammel, StrangerOrders and Brother-Captain Gilead 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363512-forge-world-imperium-secundus/#findComment-5513385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluntblade Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 However, the text itself has been stated from the off to be the work of a mere mortal, an old man by the time that Retribution is written. Though on the AL front, Malevolence cites and discusses an account called The Unbalanced Scales, seemingly the Legion's own account of the conflict.

b1soul Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 I'm not seriously advocating that AK is Alpharius or an Alpha Legion operative ...but if he were, he'd probably lie about his identity Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363512-forge-world-imperium-secundus/#findComment-5514010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arendious Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Presumably, an actual AL operative would announce his affiliation, whereupon everyone would assume no *real* operative would admit that....
