So long as he doesn't walk onto a landmine. Or isn't indiscriminately vapourized by an orbital bombardment. Or doesn't trip and break his neck while taking a shower.

Or killed by Tyranids, Necrons or anything else without emotions.

Your missing a few from the list.

Also I note there have been a fair few posts like this.

If this is about anybody I say either Angron, Magnus or Mortarion. If it's about someone with rules I say Kaldor Draigo or Castellan Crowe, both utterly incorruptable warriors beyond compare.

Kharn? Angron? The Emperor? (nah, lol jks,)

I tell ya, the winner has to be KHORNE!

Kharn the betrayer

A strange point to raise about Lucius is that since its 'whoever takes pleasure from his death' or something, then surely lets say a Necron #1531007 puts him down with a gauss blaster and the chaos army is entirely slaughtered and the Necron's wander off.

Imperial army comes along to kill/purge any taint and discover Lucius was killed during the fighting, surely taking pleasure from THAT would turn them into Lucius? I mean you'd be happy if you found out a historic enemy has been slain and it didn't even cost you a single bolt or las round.

If that works, its just terrifying.

I hate the Ultra Marines, and I really hate Marneus Calgar, and my hatred for him goes all the way back to the early 90s, when GW released the UM Codex and made him a Tyranid killer, which was my Army at the time. I voted for Logan, mainly because I think the SW have some of the coolest Marine fluff, and I have a SW army, and I have always liked Logan.

Though I think Bjorn the Fell handed ain't nothing to feth with. Dude is 10k years old, fought alongside Leman Russ, and is in a freaking Dreadnaught.

pious... that is all

Slaanesh does not need to resurrect him in that matter. It just chooses to do so because it suits its sick sense of humour. Slaanesh could dump Lucius' soul in a random (not protected) body where it has sufficient power (so presumably, places like the Eye of Terror) if it wanted to.

The special guy in the most recent codex.
Until the next codex comes out.

nightbringer fully awakened would destroy everybody

Deamon Primarch anyone?

angron does have rules, just a matter of finding the rules in white dwarf

Ghazzy!! Woohooo!

I vote Lelith only cause in close combat she is so over powered if anyone has fought her and been on the wrong side of the assault.

I voted for Gazzy, but I think Lucius the Eternal is the most powerful of them all... but nobody can rival Gazzy's reputation

Where the hell is Gabriel Angelos?

Logan all the way baby he's the great wolf

Captain Cortez. And I don't even play Spess Mareens.

What about that bloodthirster hero character, he's the primary character of the deamon army.

I know his name: Scarbrand!

Just wait till Kharn hears he was left out of this...

a c'tan due to the ability to ignore inv saves

Fluff-wise, the Avatar of Khaine. I mean, he was only beaten like twice: once by the Masque, and twice by I think was the Doom of Malan'tai. Otherwise it would be luscious the Eternal, because he can only be truly killed by an unfeeling warrior.

Gameboard-wise, it's a little tougher to say since you need to take tactics into account. I'd say either the Swarmlord or Lelith if you're talking pure CC. Probably the most well-rounded warrior is Calgar.

Re the Avatar: also by every SM hero that they want to promote as being badass, several hive fleets, few Daemons...

I think you mean Lucius, but that works too.

Whoevers codex Matt Ward was allowed to ruin

...or Valdor, but he's fluff-only

...or Lysander. Cuz he's Lysander and will smash with his big ass hammer. He's like Thor and the Hulk rolled into one.

Kharn has no inv. save. Insta-death by railgun.

Ollanius Pius.

Melissia wrote:Ollanius Pius.

Yes. I agree with this. Ollanius Pius the original bad-ass who ran up to horus and was blown into thousands of pieces as he tried to save the emperor!

Gotta remember that greatest warrior doesn't necessarily mean they're the best fighter.Ciaphas Cain was a great fighter, probably the greatest swordsman of his time, but he wouldn't necessarily be the best warrior of his time.
