He's... special, it seems.

Horus is the most powerful. He was the best among the Primarchs. He totally owned Sanguinius and grievously wounded Big E in the following confrontation.

Now, stop asking those questions and READ THE FLUFF.

Horus actually isn't too powerful compared to the other primarchs when he's the normal vanilla Horus. It's only when he got buffed by Chaos that he took a level in general combat.

I think he was more powerful even when vanilla, but you're right, probably not that much.

Yes! Another awesome thread by LightKing.

Not every IP is like your beloved Dragonball Z, where power levels are rigidly measured and attached to the cast so we know who is stronger than who. Sheesh.

The Fabricator General is a representation of the height of techno-modification and design. He should be many orders greater than his colleagues and especially non-modified plebeian humans, even if they are Astartes.

Have I missed something... The guy mentioned as Angron/red angel has a blood angel chapter symbol on his right leg (left when viewed from the front) and also some black blood tears on his right shoulder guard??

Angron isn't the Red Angel.

The Red Angel was a Blood Angel Apothecary possessed by a demon.

@cthululsspy thanks for the link... Explains it. Not sure how I missed it!

I always assumed Angron was the only red angel. http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Angron

Ah, I see where the confusion lies.

Angron's nickname was the Red Angel, because of the atrocities he committed.

Meros was renamed the Red Angel after he got possessed by that demon, since he was a Blood Angel.

You've been given the names of the people in the picture, now go research those names and come to your own conclusion.

All of them.

This is the point where you go "wait, that's nonsense!" and go do your own research to assess the validity of my claim.

i thought this is a 40k background section where we ask questions about the fluff?

Discuss the fluff, or ask questions/discuss about obscure things in the fluff, not ask loads of simple questions that the answers to find out are easily available to you on google if you were not being lazy and incredibly annoying.

i still find it odd that the artwork is called "Traitor Primarchs" and only featuers 2 of them out of the 9 that betrayed the emperor

You only asked about the people in the front, go back and study the picture really hard, as you can spot Omegon in the background along with Magnus, he's by one of the titans on the left.

Come back when you spot them.

It's evidently the Primarch of the II legion.
