You know when Horus was burned....
Spoiler:
+ Remove your hand, Horus + he sent.

Horus obeyed, though he tried not to. The Warmaster’s fingers shivered as they withdrew, and his grey eyes flickered with unhidden tension.

Enough!

Three of the paintings burst into flame; the crystal sculpture of the Covenant’s tower palace shattered into worthless glass chips. Lorgar winced at his brother’s psychic release. He had to sniff blood back into his nose.

I am finished with this petty banter. You believe you know the truths behind our reality? Then show me. Tell me what you saw at the end of your accursed Pilgrimage.


I don't know but this isnt domination....It's a burst of energy......

Also Fulgrim is a deamon prince now...So....

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself. It was a balance, 50/50 - Angron overpowered Russ, and the Wolves were losing ground to the World Eaters; but Russ and his warriors had Angron by the balls, and barely broke a sweat. They won, no question. Lorgar even says: "The Wolves won, meathead."

Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly.

Oh ok

I think that that is an impressive feat in its own right. The Warmaster, who holds the might of 9 Traitor Legions together by his charisma and will alone, forced to act against a former weakling.

That part yeah, maybe, or at least a show of strength, doesn't Magnus comment beforehand how strong Lorgar is now? Maybe it is posturing on Magnus part, having been surpassed by Lorgar?

Now he is, but not at this point if we're referring to Aurelian, aren't Magnus and Angron to though? I thought Magnus ascended to Princedom at the battle of Prospero?

This is contradicting...I think Angron was the first to go into deamon-hood and Magnus was just without a physical body here....Also bare in mind he is still neutral (doesn't go traitor right before prospero had fallen)...

How do you snap the spine of something that isn't physical?

Ok, I think we are getting our times messed up

So I think it goes

Spoiler:
Prospero Burns - Magnus
Angel Exterminatus - Fulgrim
Betrayer - Angron


Now it depends on when the last two listed occur, whether it is at the same time or not and if I a right about Prospero.

Anyhoo, would being a Daemon Prince be a bonus or a disadvantage? I can see those that wouldn't like following Daemons, the Night Lords for one.

But hasn't he realised that either way he is doomed at this point so just gets on with it, he's had he chat with Tzeentch in his tower at this point and then descends to confront Russ? He was kinda forced into it and didn't have much choice, he had been shafted by Tzeentch already big style.

Then why did Lorgar said "when we ascend" ?

Also according to "Betrayer" Magnus went into traitor ranks completely neutral, from the safe distance, and he wasn't forced into anything....and probably knows who fisted his arse.....

That's why I don't pity him....

Magnus wasn't a daemon prince in Betrayer, it's constantly stated that he's just projecting himself through the warp, his physical appearance unchanged.

Also, DarthMarko, you keep stating "fulgrim is a daemon prince" as if that protects him from the other primarchs, who, you know, are also daemon princes.

I've not actually read Betrayer yet so I am a little in the dark here

I assume he means at the point of Angel Exterminatus but that's a good point, it would depend on when Horus fell.

Fair enough. To put it simple, Magnus visits Lorgar quite a few times for talky time. Every time he does this it's clearly stated and even pointing out the details of how clearly he is projecting himself through the warp to appear there.

Magnus is a Daemon Prince.

Spoiler:


"Magnus landed softly before his sons and they stared in amazement as his light illuminated the bleak darkness of the world. This was no corporeal shell of a subtle body as worn by the primarch when he had walked among them. This was a body of light that could exist beyond the confines of the Great Ocean. Magnus had sacrificed the flesh that had contained his essence, and in so doing had ascended to a more evolved form, one free from the constraints of mortality and the limits of reality."

Btw @Void, not long ago you bashed Lorgar with the same words you bash Fulgrim now.....Not cool, dude....


Fulgrim, as per his own novel, was plague by enormous insecurity and and lack of confidence in himself (In a way, he was the anti-Magnus, both outwardly projecting an air of arrogance, but while Magnus fully believed he was as awesome as he said he was, Fulgrim deep down thought he was a loser piece of gak), he handled criticism badly, believing it to be personal slights against him and in his mind confirming what he thought about himself (See when Ferrus and Ostia or whatever his name was criticized his artwork), and when faced with the prospect that he had killed Ferrus over an imaginary slight, rather than even considering repenting, he considers suicide or having the Daemon allow him to run away from his guilt.

I say he is a pathetic individual because he is, that's what makes his story interesting.

Not saying that they can't, but AD-B freaking said that Lorgar only managed to stave off Horus for a brief moment in Aurelian...(his respond to fanboism)....

Also I 'll bet my hat you didn't read Aurelian...



ADB sure has a habit of having to clarify what his writing fails to convey. "Best writer in Black Library", lol.

Fulgrim has his bonuses though, he's a psychic too and he pushed out a Daemon from his body (if we believe everything thus far at face value)

I have Aurelian, how do you mean stave off Horus?


I am almost 90% positive that Fulgrim had Lorgar's help in turning the tables against the Daemon, considering the end of Aurelian.

Lorgar had been attempting to psychically duel Magnus for the duration of the conversation, with Magnus unwilling to fight his brother. Notice that, while Lorgar was in the process of psychically attacking Magnus, the very moment Magnus grew tired of Lorgar's internet tough guy act, he overpowered him and ceased it.

And Magnus did this while creating and maintaining a psychic avatar to be physically present, which by Magnus's early words to Horus requires a great deal of power.

ADB, in typical ADB fashion, is ignoring the work of other writers to tell the story he wants to tell. He doesn't care that the point of A Thousand Sons was that Magnus is resigned to his Fate in Tzeentch's plan, he thinks it is far better for him to still spend whole books whining that he isn't sure if he wants to rebel or not.

Your posts contain lot of IYHO-s which I don't share, especially around Fulgrim...But never mind that....

I also only addresed books, and characters which are writen - never once insulted you, like you are doing to particular primarchs....constantly...


*This is a little off topic*

I' really hate when primarch has a multi - personality brought by different authors; for instance :

Mcneill made Magnus (who mocks Lorgar ) and Perturabo bf, while ADB made Lorgar and Magnus bf...

Perturabo and Lorgar have the most different sets of personality IMHO...

So spot the gimp in the story...

See my point?


Spoiler:
“That time is upon us,” said Leman Russ, all levity absent from his icy tone. “My forces are poised to unleash the murder-make at our foe’s kings.”
“And the Urizen?” asked Magnus, using the Word Bearers devotional name for their primarch. “Is he also ready to strike?”
“Do not call him that,” said Leman Russ. “His name is Lorgar.”
“Why do you dislike that name so much?”
“I don’t know,” said Russ. “Do I need a reason?”
“No, I was simply curious.”
“Not everything needs an explanation, Magnus,” said Russ. “Some things just are. Now gather your warriors, it is time to finish this.”


Magnus used a name which the Word Bearers themselves use as a term for their Primarch. Nowhere does the narrative make it clear that Magnus was mocking anyone.

One of the reasons Lorgar likes Magnus is their debates on the nature of the universe, faith vs. reason, essentially.

Spoiler:
‘Magnus,’ Lorgar said the name in contemplative softness. It
made sense. His brother, whose psychic strength and fierce intelligence
put all other minds to shame. They’d spoken often in the
Hall of Leng – that cold, regal chamber on distant Terra – arguing
with smiles and scrolls over the nature of the universe.


Magnus didn't mock Lorgar on Colchis, he was very hesitant and careful in his speech, trying not to upset the already-panicking and distraught Lorgar.

Lorgar is a scholar, lol, just like Magnus and Perturabo. Religion does not preclude being a scholar, and indeed, during the Dark Ages, both aspects of a man were often hand in hand.

Dorn won’t help you either. He’s too busy being the Emperor’s groundskeeper, hiding behind the palace walls. The Wolf is too busy cutting off heads as our father’s executioner, while the Lion holds on to his secrets, and has no special fondness for you. Who else will come? Not Ferrus, certainly. Nor Corax either. Even as we speak, I suspect he flees for Deliverance. Sanguinius?’ Curze laughed cruelly. ‘The angel is more cursed than I. The Khan? He does not wish to be found. So who is left? No one, Vulkan. None of them will come. You are simply not that important. You are alone.’ Konrad Curze to Vulkan

And people think I'm disrespectful?

Point out where the narrative has Magnus mock Lorgar.

None, you are right I am wrong and I'm really tired...

P.S: Listen to Ellis - good narrator that one...

ADB: I showed the Wolves revealing the key weakness at the heart of the World Eaters; showing Angron that his Legion was broken and worthless compared to the others; that he was the one primarch who couldn't trust his own warriors, and that they didn't care if he lived or died; showing that loyalty to brothers and sons is the heart of success for the Legiones Astartes, to the point even Lorgar makes a big deal out of saying the World Eaters and their primarch were massively outclassed by Russ, and Angron was too stupid to see the lesson Russ had sacrificed time, sweat, and blood, to teach. We're talking about a battle the Wolves won, by isolating the enemy general through pack tactics, and threatening to kill him, without a hope of defending himself.

Marko is a fan of the Wolves and you are at least a disliker of them. You two will never mesh in that regard.

If you have nothing nice to say then say frakking nothing.

I don't dislike the Wolves, and in fact the Wolves are not the subject of this conversation. Marko is not a Space Wolves fan, he's a... Well, I'm sure you can figure it out.

He is also a troll. Indeed, look at his last post, where he refuses to substantiate what he says and simply declares himself right.

An immovable object meets an irresistible force. I'm glad I'm not drinking with you two.

When given the choice, always drink with the hot chick in the short skirt.

Always.

Even if option B is Grandma on her birthday.

LoL I'm not you...I' dont present my opinion as a fact....Although I troll sometimes, yes....btw ty again for that intelligent obesrvation, always glad to see nice comments....

Btw
Urizen was the name which Lorgar gave himself (read some William Blake, and the meaning, then you'll get the picture)...
If Magnus and Lorgar were bffl do you think he would adress him like that in front of Russ and Russ told him to shut his pie hole.... ???

Like I said it is simplier for you to listen the audio book - Martyn tells it well...

Also you really piss people off lately, more than usually...
