<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Raven Guard Books"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/31.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Raven Guard Books RG? I know there is "Ravens Flight" (opinions?) but is there any other, perhaps regarding Corax?

There was recently a limited edition Raven Guard book, but I just checked BL and it's sold out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321371.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321371.page GMT Re:Raven Guard Books HH era novels half ( Deliverance Lost ) and the limited BL book ( unkindness of ravens ).

Corax shows up rarely and as he doesn't get anything beyond 2-3 lines in HH novels and a few pages in DL plus the RF 'drama' its hard to find fluff of him.

What?

I've just finished reading Deliverance Lost. Corax takes up a huge part of the novel, moreso than any other primarch in the HH novels that I have read thus far. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321655.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321655.page GMT Re:Raven Guard Books
Still, it's got some interesting fluff tidbits, but are so ham-handedly given, even those nearly failed to keep me going.

The Heresy series reached a new low here.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321894.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4321894.page GMT Re:Raven Guard Books

It won't stay this way if you read them all...

Spoiler:



Corax got a chance to rebuild his Legion...or not. Corax was able to withdraw from isstvan...or the Normal humans lend a hand and the AL made it possible.. Corax had a shot at killing Lorgar...and curze ruined it. Add his arrival at Deliverance and thats his whole fluff.



Where is anything of him pre-istvaan? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4322975.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4322975.page GMT Raven Guard Books
Sadly, in trying to give every Legion some spotlight, the quality is declining. The fact is, the Raven Guard, Salamanders, and Iron Hands weren't important to the Heresy. They were all but wiped out (heck, in the fluff from the original Space Marine game rulebook, the loyal Chapters on Istvaan V were completely destroyed) at Istvaan V, and played no big part in the rest of the Heresy. To give fans of those Chapters some material, they've been inventing new stuff, and well, it hasn't been very good. The Iron Hands story from The Primarchs is a pretty good example. It's completely pointless and a throwaway story. It wasn't badly written, it just painfully obvious that it was written as filler and because the Iron Hands don't do anything else during the Heresy except die horribly.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4322980.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451587/4322980.page GMT
