It’s a tremendous Honour to be chosen to lead the Speartip, especially by Warmaster Horus himself... Yes brother we’re entering the Istvaan System as we speak.
The way my heart fuckin’ dropped, man. You know a series and its lore are good when you can’t think about a _fictional_ atrocity without getting a bit queasy. The scope of that kind of betrayal is just…well, inhuman.
@@TheCorrodedMan It's so much worse because we understand just how pivotal that moment was. It was inhuman enough at face value, but it's impact was felt across the fabric of 40ks timeline forever.
Once they were the first among equals and a legion that brought thousands of worlds within the Imperium, and with their Primarch they were able crave a place in the annuls of time, but it is a just reward that their Legion no longer function within the Forces of Chaos.
I just bought my first warhammer box, "Horus Heresy mkiv box set." This was the legion I wanted to use for some of my marines! Now I get to learn about them and paint them! 🐺🌑👁
@@Azzie420 That's a good idea too. Since there are new, primaris pokemons Tranzyn will sooner or later capture some. Then it will be a matter of a good swap offer.
Sons of Horus are Marines Archetypal. They have the same sense as the US Marines. There are other Elites. Maybe even better. SEALs are more covert. There are other comparable levels in other branches. But if you are looking for the best soldier to soldier, for general types of combat, those are the ones. So were the Luna Wolves. The other Legions have their specialities. I think Dark Angels are like SEALs if they formed an entire branch. The Imperial Fists are something like Army. 😅
Space marines were flawless for many years, The armours, vehicles, codes, interactions, ethics. Heavily expressed upon in 30k, expanded in 40k. though 41k remains the same 40k at core, the lore has abruptly been changed into something that changes a lot and very little at the same time. Primaris are a little bit improved space marines. There is new armour, some new vehicles, so the looks have been upgraded. With adaptations on old models to generate new models. Like new types of dreadnoughts, jump assault, etc. So lore wise, there is a lot of change and yet, visually, there is no real change. Though primaris look different, they are hugely similar which is great, but it would be better if they also sported a lot of new, well thought out vehicles and technologies. New weapons for new sorts of tactical squads, heavy weapon squads. Something that upgrades the space marines on all accounts, Instead of plasma cannons, there could be "Hyper-ion cannon." in the mix, which is a lot better than your usual gear, and deals a lot of damage to older units but not newer units. And thus chaos space marines would upgrade as well. There should be lore, stories and art for new tyrannid lifeforms encountered in the 4th tyrannic war, things never seen before. Hierophant forms that look completely different, for example, and so on. Just to spice up the lore and have varieties for the same type of unit/model. so armies look more unique. Anyways, Equipped with new, stronger technologies, the imperium is weaponized enough to beat back the tyranids.
I don't think the reasoning for the Horus Heresy is very good. If Horus were to find out that Big E planned on annihilating the Space Marines like he did to the Thunder Warriors would have been a justification. I can understand choosing to stand with your sons over loyalty to your father. It would also match up with Big E's general disregard for his creations. Such as the rebuke of the Word Bearers and the abandonment of Angron's gladiator army.
At that point he had no idea about the Thunder Warriors, so it would have been hard for the Chaos Gods to convince him of the truth behind their demise. He was an egotist at heart, however; they knew that the _one_ thing that Horus wanted more so than anything in the galaxy was to be _remembered,_ to have a legacy. So they showed him a future where he has none of those things, and told him that it was the Emperors fault, helpfully omitting the fact that _he_ was the true reason behind his legions expulsion.
I honestly can not stand horus or the big bad Abaddon pshhh please on his first black crusade he got a black sword buried to the hilt in the chest and I am suppose to take him seriously
Read “Horus rising” put the entire chapter into a new light for me. Was pretty crazy seeing them all pre turn. And knowing what they did after becoming chaotic it puts depth into the story for sure
