Seriously, his sacrifice saved the imperium. If not for the chink in Horus' armor (caused by Sangy) the Emprah would have lost.
Whats your favorite primarch then? I'll make my ranking of him especially harsh >:[

No, he wasn't. Horus made sure to send the Dark Angles to the Shield Worlds with the Space Wolfs. He was afraid of Jonson's tactical might. Jonson didn't return to Caliban until many years after the HH.

I was right? I was right! Hmm...next primarch is Lion. My god I'm turning into Ediin.  No, because you are actually guessing correctly. Alright, next one's Horus.

Reading First Heretic atm and i dont mind the Word Bearers, while they are been seekers (suckers) for the Truth, they are at least more interesting than later on in dark disciple "worship.worship.worship"
Dorn and Guilliman are a bit too perfect. They need faults to make them interesting. So they belong where they are.
Should have had 2nd and 11th primarchs in this list. Sure we know nothing about them, but makes them more interesting than a few primarchs

Ture, but that would be unfair for a bunch of the others  . You guys are going to see soon, the I only *like* a few primarchs.
There are some others I don't mind, and then most I dislike all the way.

Actually Samus, unlike his legion, I kinda like Russ
. I've kinda dug myself a hole here, while writing my list there are primarchs I dislike more than Russ, so his rank gets pushed up higher. Ah well.
And the few minutes to possibly twenty minutes is how fast I can finish correcting and printing my paper due tomorrow.
I know Wargaming takes precedence over most of my life choices, but unfortunately, not work I can't get out of. (The paper is worth two tests so...)
Also, I only had like, 3 mistakes on it, so I'll write it up in a minute. The rest of the possible 20 minutes is how long it takes me to ramble on and fix up my rankings

What? How could you not like Furry- VIking- Werewolf- Tribal- Space- Supermen- Wolf- Marines? ....Oh wait.
Yeah, I can see why some don't like them, but hte reason I chose them is not their codex, but cause I love their fluff- unlike the BA, their Curse only makes them better, and they don't go whinig about it...
As for Russ? He's pretty awesome in every way, except his unshakeable faith- listening to horus telling him to kill a borther? Really?
Even so, his legion's great in my view. Say what you will about the current 'dex (Thunderwolves? Really? Riding giant wolves now?) but fluff wise, thier kinda a really cool legion. Beneath all their badassery, they just need a hug... NOT! Plus, they got cool hair and beards, and have certain... er... privileges that regular marines don't. (Just look at the Trickster).
I wish we'd hear more about the 13th company or the curse of the wolfen, that would cement them in my mind forever as the coolest legion.
...Wow. That was a long fan rant. Sorry bout that!

Just to tease you guys, You'll never guess who my number one rank is. You can try, but I don't think you will.
Well, As I promised: 15: Lion El'johnson
Lions and wolves and 7-foot tall armored space marines Oh My! Well, there are some things I like about the Lion, Within a decade, he led an army and cleared his planet of the 'great beasts', which I think is a pretty big accomplishment. He knocked Russ out cold, which I think is pretty funny, and awesome. He 'preformed a master stroke' and against unfavorable odds, captured the siege weapons Horus would have used againsts Terra. Pretty awesome. However, he traded them to Perturabo to further his goal of becoming the new warmaster. (which definitely would have gone to Sangy anyway, btw. Horus said so himself) This was a dumb move in to ways. First, he traded away the weapons only to further his own goals, and the heresy wasn't even over. Though he couldn't have known, Perturabo was a traitor, and he just handed him the weapons he just fought for.Then, after bombing Caliban, Johnson declared nap time and is sleeping in (Dawyne) The Rock (Johnson) (ha, I made a joke. Get it? Lion el' Johnson. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.)
Anyway, now time to actually rant a bit. I dislike Johnson a whole lot. He did do a few cool things, but most of his actions during and after the heresy are unrecorded, or spent doing crap with his own legion. He thought he could have been warmaster, which is kinda dumb, and thought about it before Horus was even defeated. He left/ sent a ton of his chapter back on Caliban, which I also think wasn't a good idea. Also, I kinda picture Johnson as the cowardly Lion from Wizzard of Oz, but whatever
Writers block right now, I need to figure out what chapter I'm going to rank.

For the first rank Imma guessing either Russ (except not) or... ALPHARIUS!
All that aside, the biggest underdogs would be Peturabo or Fulgrim or Ferrus Mannus...
But the likely choices are:
My favorite, Konrad Cuze the Dark Knight.
Mortation
Vulkan!
