<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "The Fallen Primarchs"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/31.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net The Fallen Primarchs For instance would Ferus Manus have turned traitor if Fulgrim and Horus was more manipulative?
Would the White Scars turned traitor altogether instead of the few that did?
Would the Imperial Fists turn traitor if it werent for the rivalry between Perturabo and Dorn?
Or could have The Ultramarines be pursuaded at all if it werent for the interference of the Word Bearers?
Or that of the other Loyalist Primarchs etc...

What would be your thoughts, ideas and opinions?~]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5658689.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5658689.page GMT The Fallen Primarchs

There's actually a piece of fanfic that speculates upon exactly that. Basically it has all of the Primarch loyalties swapped around, with traitors becoming loyalists and vice-versa.

That does actually look interesting. I'll have to dedicate some time into reading that tomorrow haha.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5659985.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5659985.page GMT The Fallen Primarchs IoM. Horus for the most part only turned the weaker and more mentally disturbed brothers to his side.

Magnus more or less just screwed up and becoming a traitor was his fall back position. Fulgrim was heavily influenced by demonic possession and the whole Alpha legion plot is stupid.

I havent read Betrayer yet but I still await a satisfactory explanation of why Mortarion turned traitor.

Even the most wacked out loyal primarch, the Lion, was unwavering in his loyalty to the Emperor even though he trusted no one else, even the loyal primarchs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5660480.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5660480.page GMT The Fallen Primarchs

Horus wanted the Imperium that was all he was interested in...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5661037.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5661037.page GMT The Fallen Primarchs

But, that said, it isn't like the core fluff is that solid either, lol. Mostly the reasons why the traitors turned like they did.

But you have to remember this is because the Horus Heresy storyline dates back to a time when your name was Angron because you were angry and the daemon primarch of the Chaos god of being angry. And your name was Mortarion because you looked like Death, complete with scythe.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5661414.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/529214/5661414.page GMT
