Wolfandraven77 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Hello guys! Can anyone tell me what the beef between the blood angels and the space wolves were? In the rules they are distrusted allies. I don't remember reading any of the horus heresy novel series that specifically mentioned that sanguinius and russ hate each other or that they came to blows in anyway ( apart from the blood angels going mental in fear to tread, which I assume was an isolated incident that the rest of the legions didnt find out about). Is there lore about this beef? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agramar_The_Luna_Wolf Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 I think aren't real ones, in the background way. Just to limit certain combos in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Noserenda Posted July 11 Solution Share Posted July 11 The Blood Angels are murderous savages, desperately keeping that at bay with Culture and the like, the Space Wolves pretend to be murderous savages to hide their culture and the like so they looks tougher. Feels like thats a situation ready to cause a whole swathe of problems, contempt and misunderstandings. The Primarchs dont have any direct beef, but were prominently on opposite sides of the Librarian issue so i suspect that doesnt help!

Karhedron Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 I think a lot of other Primarchs mistrust Russ due to the 6th Legion's reputation as kinslayers. Deservedly or not, they were perceived as the Emperor's sanction if another Legion stepped out of line.

Valkyrion Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Of all the legions to show your red thirsty tendencies to, the Space Wolves are arguably the worst. Corax and Vulkan would probably be sympathetic, Guilliman and Dorn wary of it, Khan and Ferrus would tell them to embrace it, the Lion would be pleased that through such imperfection he has found himself elevated above his brother, but the wolves would be all 'maleficarum, maleficarum!' like the hairy hypocrites they are.

LameBeard Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 (edited) What are you saying, Sanguinius doesn’t want Wolves sniffing out his secret and then acting the executioner and leaving another empty plinth? It all hangs together … Edited July 12 by LameBeard Xenith and Karhedron 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfandraven77 Posted Monday at 03:32 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 03:32 PM Totally! I think I remember sanguinius in fear to tread being rather paranoid about horus and the luna wolves finding out about his " little secret". Obviously horus used that to his own advantage. Would russ have been so machiavelian? I doubt it. Great replies everyone. Despite not featuring the blood angels i am rereading prospero burns and I think it might be in my top 5 HH novels.
