I guess.

It makes him and the Space Wolves impossible to take seriously.

"They voiced their assent with a wet-leopard growl"

The legendary line that started it all.

**TheAngrySquig**

Leman has been trolled hard by whoever that was.

**Void__Dragon**

Dan Abnett?

**TheAngrySquig**

I guess so.

**Durza**

Dan Abnett said it, it must be canon.

**TheAngrySquig**

Cannon, but silly

**Durza**

Fiah the mortars! Let no gun remain silent, for Dan Abnett has this day called for the silly cannon barrage!

caNon. Unless you're planning to fire those books at people.

**TheAngrySquig**

Lol, sorry. Studying medieval england does that to you

I'm going with it because it's the funniest fething thing I've ever read in Black Library.

**TheAngrySquig**

+1 to that, except for maybe Jurgen and the marshmellows

**shadeyaces**

Magnus the super psyker. Plus the thousand sons pre hersy paint scheme is awesome

**TheAngrySquig**

Red and gold right?

Red and AWESOME XD

I kid

I liked Angron and the world eaters pre-heresy. I found it funny that their armour colours were white

I gak you not.

Please tell me that the wording is 'liquid' and not 'wet'. One works, with bonus points for alliteration, the other is just derp.

**Ran**

Angron, all the way. Forget righteous, keep the anger! And as an added bonus, bloodstains really stand out on that white-blue livery.

**Durza**

Their armour is actually still white and blue under all that blood.

Welcome to Dakka, now as you were saying BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD, MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES

The word is "wet".

In fact, every Space Wolf makes a "wet-leopard" sound in Prospero Burns, usually a "wet-leopard growl".

Which makes it even more awesome!!!

TO ANGRY FOR PAINT, LETS JUST HIT IT WITH AN AXE UNTIL IT CHANGES COLOR!

**TheAngrySquig**

With this thread being pretty much dead, I'm going to call it with Sanguinius winning, followed by Alpharius, then Kurze. If I had it my way it would have been Sanguinius, Kurze, Russ

**RAVEN 97**

Why do loads of people like Sanguinius?

**TheAngrySquig**

Because he's a really noble, nice, charismatic guy. And he's one of like four Primarchs that isn't a total dick

**The Son Of Russ**

BLOODCLAWallday wrote:LEMAN RUSS! SPACE VIKINGS! Oh, seriously though, how do you pronounce Roboute Guillman?

If the Space Marine game is anything to go by:
Row-boot - Gwill-iman

**TheAngrySquig**

I'm actually a bit surprised by how few people like Khan. I get that he's not mentioned a whole lot, but neither is Vulkan, and he got almost 4x the votes

**The Son Of Russ**

Man everyone digs on Russ.
Leave Leman ALONE!!! HES JUST TRYING TO LIVE HIS LIFE!!!

Ok but seriously, what was abnett thinking with the wet leapord growl thing? Thats fething poor for a kickass werewolf. And also he got persuaded to attack Magnus by THE WARMASTER. Who didn't listen to the warmaster at the time? I mean come on, horus is known for his charisma as a primarch and leader, so i do not believe it to be Russ fault. I mean look at all the followers Horus managed to persuade to his cause willingly or unwillingly...
And Russ fight with Magnus? So what. Considering he was fighting the second greatest Psyker in the galaxy, im not surprised he took a beating. Anyone would. If Magnus was fighting one on one no Psychic powers alowed, im pretty sure Russ would rip him to shreds. Again. Over his knee.

**TheAngrySquig**

The wet leopard thing is bad. And I agree that Russ would wreck almost every other Primarch in a fair fight. No psychic eldar trickery

**Durza**

RAVEN 97 wrote:Why do loads of people like Sanguinius?

Because everything that mentions him says he's nice and noble, and he hasn't yet had any books revealing he's a jerkass, like what happened to the Emperor, Russ, the Lion...

You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword, and we'll try and kill each other like civilized people? I think ADB had it right when he said that the Primarchs are all equal to each other in battle. Not equal in every given situation, but there is no one primarch that is head and shoulders above the rest. The fight in Savage Weapons is a good example.

**Alpharius**

The Primarchs with the most votes are the ones that are the most loyal to the Emperor and Humanity...

Awesome how that worked out!
