He went out in such a blaze of glory that screams badass imo. That and breaking a (king) bloodthirster's back over his knee while both hovering in midair over a giant, colossal freaking gate that led to the Imperial Palace's inner sanctums... while everyone is watching and gawking at the spectacle. Sanguinius I'm afraid, succeeds most notably in this crowning moment of awesome that no other primarch comes close, although maybe Fulgrim gets closer to most because a) He actually accomplishes crap b) He is the first to ascend to immortality.
Wait I thought it was Angron when did that happen. you're probably right though I haven't read much about Fulgrim
This makes me think of the movie Orgasmo. Hope that word doesn't get censored. In it, the main character, a devout mormon asks God for a sign to tell him not to start making a porn movie. Then, there's earthquakes, smashes, sirens, and all sorts of stuff in the back and foreground, clearly implied to have been sent by God telling him not to do it, and meanwhile the character continues to ask God to give him that sign. Prior to it being expanded, Sanguinius' fluff was always one of the only Primarch's to recognize the Emperor for who he was (atm I think it's only Sanguinius, Rogal and Magnus who recognized, although Rogal was more of a 'sense' for his fathers 'nobility'). Additionally, Sanguinius suffered 'psychic backlash' when Ka'bantha strolled through his warriors on Signus Prime, and fell into a coma. Other than that, I don't think there's been much mention of him at all in the books, although I haven't read them all other than Fear To Tread, which was after the Conclave of Nikea or whatever it's called where the Legions Librarian's were to be re-inducted into the actual ranks of the warriors proper, and that all psychic activity was to be stopped outside things like Navigators and the Astronomicon. Personally, I think all the Primarch's were psykers, whether they are active in its use or not was up to the individual and his environs. If you are going to create genetically engineered super men, and you apparently had limitless knowledge of human genealogy, wouldn't you have to be an absolute moron not to create your supermen to be more... super?
Don't know the timeline myself, but Fulgrim starts using his crazy sword that he found that turns out to be a Daemon Weapon, and he (depending on source) either gets possessed by the Greater Daemon trapped in the blade or goes cray-cray because of the whispers. It's what leads Fulgrim to kill his mate Primarch really, and means that he sets off to ascension and he brings the Iron Warriors primarch to help too iirc, and then leaves him to die when he's about to ascend. Fulgrim kills the Iron Hands Primarch and technically kills Roboute, hence my comment of actually getting crap done.
I just know that after Istvaan Lorgar and Angron go killing a ton of worlds in Ultrama and Lorgar makes Angron a Daemon Prince to save his life.
Basically, the timeline of the Horus Heresy is mainly centered around key events. The first major event being the incident on Istavaan III when Horus killed off all the Adeptus Astartes still loyal to the emperor in the traitor legions. After word soon reached the Emperor, he sent 6 legions to face the 3 traitor legions on Istvaan V, then of course 3 of the 6 turned out to be traitors, and the dropsite massacre took place. Fulgrim killed Ferrus Magnus (Iron Hands Primarch), and 3 of the loyalist legions (Salamanders, Iron Hands, Raven Guard) became crippled and couldn't stop Horus' march to Terra, just as it had begun. Of course the Ultramarines would also attempt to stop Horus, so Horus planned for Lorgar and Angron to create a large warp storm to blockade the ultramarines (it didn't work to plan, since the ultramarines made it to Terra regardless...). Thus the Shadow Crusade, the killing of 26 worlds in Ultramar (according to the book).
indeed. or are you trying to refer to son? i think he was a bit aggressive, but the fact remains that you are just saying 'who the fuck is talking' while discussing something he has more knowledge of than you. seriously, what are you referring to?
funny enough, he...well he isn't/wasn't immortal. he's dead now. he also was not the first primarch to 'actually accomplish something'. that's utter bullshit. they all accomplished TONS. horus saved the emperors life, for one. i could go on but i dont have time.
