Subject: which traitor primarch do you feel the most pity for?
Even though Horus was a selfish prat, I voted him cuz he got unbelievably close and was defeated at the last second and cant even be brought back by chaos.

Subject: Re:which traitor primarch do you feel the most pity for?
I just wanted to say to everyone who chose Angron.
Angron and Mortarion were actually in very similar situations from what I understand. Both were the only primarchs to have not conquered their home planet at the time of the Emperor's arrival. But where Angron had been denied his final battle, Mortarion had failed in his final battle and would have died if not for the intervention of the Emperor. The Emperor forced total obedience on Mortarion as punishment for his failure.
