    My top three have got to be
    1 - Lion El'Johnson (Do I really need to say more? He's just awesome)
    2 - Magnus the Red (Really enjoyed his story, very tragic - of course he did do a lot wrong but he did it for the right reasons)
    3 - Roboute Guilliman (None of the other Primarchs could hope to have held the Imperium together as well as him when he was brought back)
    Still haven't decided which parent legion my custom chapter of Space Marines will hail from, but leaning Ultramarines because of Guilliman (though they suspect Belisarius Cawl may have spliced some Emperor's Children in there somewhere along the way)

    Mortarion is the most compelling to me. His descent into madness is believable, and it hurts to watch him fall. He’s another casualty to the Emperor’s hubris, when he could have been an asset.

  • @Neoreaver
    @Neoreaver Před 2 měsíci

    Your backlog is a gift that keeps giving.
    As a loyal Chaos follower:
    1. Magnus - Kind of where all the good stuff came from, and just awesome in lore.
    2. Mortarion - He's just so goddamn cool. I love Death Guard first and foremost, their lore, and his newest model is just a thing of beauty. I feel like Mortarion specifically was treated unfairly by writers, but perhaps he's just accepted his role as an inevitable force? I feel like he needs more love.
    3. Lorgar - Again, he's incredibly cool, and the writing is done well. He's instrumental to the HH events, and the writing is done well.

    4. Actually really like Lorgar
    5. Corax, who almost misses out because of his horrible hairstyle.
    Also appreciate Guilleman as a 30k character and Sanguinius because Aesthetic. Least faves: Russ, Horus, Dorn, Perturabo.

  • @erih2934
    @erih2934 Před rokem +3

    1. Lion - but I will say Dark Angels and he especially lacked consistency in writing in the beginning.
    2. Khan - the most level headed character. And I also love how his legion is depicted.
    3. I honestly don't know... probably Sanguinius, but at the same time he is somewhat too 'perfect' in the end so a bit boring.
    Russ is by the way one of the worst. Space Wolves and him are just arrogant and utterly stupid through out the Heresey. No other legion did more for the Siege of Terra to happen than them XD
    Alpharius/Omegon... that is a funny one and a great example of 'mystery' not necessarily being a good thing. If at the end you get all things to come together and the big revelation makes sense its something special. If your story just covers up loose ends by yelling 'I'm Alpharius' it becomes stale quickly (same for Cypher by the way... he might be fantastic or just pointless). So I will wait and see. 'Alpharius: Head of the Hydra' was a brilliant book which took all rumors and then turned them into a perfectly fitting story.

    • @the_kieran_show
      @the_kieran_show  Před rokem +1

      This is such a great take. Your top three is probably one we could agree on too, Khan and the Scars are tremendously underrated.
      Can't agree more with your take on the Wolves. They're vikings simps without the scary pillaging!

  • @silkydarkling9433

    You guys should do a bit more research before forming your final opinions. You couldn't be more wrong about angron. Not to mention that lorgar is actually a really interesting character, and is a main character in arguably the best horus heresy novels, the first heretic and betrayer.

    • @the_kieran_show
      @the_kieran_show  Před 8 měsíci +2

      Angron in Betrayer is excellent, but the true stand out of those books is Argel Tal. First heretic is one of the best HH books in the whole series 😃

    • @silkydarkling9433
      @silkydarkling9433 Před 7 měsíci +1

      @the_kieran_show I agree that argel tal is a standout character, but Lorgar shouldn't be dismissed like that. Not to mention that Lorgar also took on Anggrath the Unbound, arguably the most powerful bloodthirster, and won. And this was during his pilgrimage, before he ascended.

  • @gahelo
    @gahelo Před rokem +1

    Okay. You guys will hate my list but...
    1- Khan, he realized the emperor is the Tirant and has recognized the corruption of chaos and how dangerous it is. He also openly acts and seem to care about mankind and it's cultures, he is like a better Vulkan in my opinion. Also, I like Mongols.
    2- Lorgar. Just wait, just wait.
    Lorgar is that type of person who relies in faith, he was born in it and was fueled by it, with it fueling him and being his strength, when he fought Fulgrim and when he destroyed and corrupted the empire by his actions were fueled by that same sense of faith.
    He is a zealous priest and a good one, one that searches what to understand and how understand the faith and words instead of saying or simply using this, but the Abusive childhood followed by a corruption made by Erebus and chaos has led him to fall further and further, with himself being blinded by the sorrow of Monarchia and the lies of Kor Phaeron and Erebus, falls quickly and falls hard, like Malcador said, he was suposed to be the most good and friendly of all primarchs and be the one to truly understand the meaning of faith.(but I think this still would make the emperor angry as the Emperor can't comprehend the faith and how it works and why it works.
    3-Sanguinius not much to say. He is a angel , a man who had led and defended the Imperium, someone who had understood his task and visions and still wanted to ensure his sons and his Father would remain safe, with himself protecting and ensuring that every single person was protected under his wings.
    4- Lionel Johnson is the exact same thing you guys said followed by him being someone who understand the need of being a dagger rather than a sword sometimes and how he relies in this to defend and help the Imperium grow. With him never truly connecting with his brothers as he is now always scheming and making sure that the enemies of the empire are eliminated, however himself just like Sanguinius, Guilliman and Khan, started to see that Emperor was imperfect and he hardly would admit this, making these three loyalist inherit the idea that their father might have made a mistake when he conquered mankind and how he did it.
    5-Angron. While being a monstrous, a angry and rancid creature, being compared to a human on Rabies, this was not his destiny, born as a empath and fallen in a world of slavery, he was the giant man, coming down and then putting his hand on a child, using his powers to calm down the slave child do the kid could sleep, he was the one to reject killing his father, the one who gathered all the emotions of slaves and gladiators and understood of what was needed to do, only to them be destroyed in the worst ways possible, with him being a corrupted Primarch that has his gift, his father and his legion as constant nightmares.
    His legions are the tool of another autocrat, the same one who turns a blind eye to slavery and suffering, being himself too up in his throne to care about the tiny Man.
    His gift is now worthless and rage is consuming him, making him at peace after Khorne has used him and let him finally rest.

      @@bayushiteishiru6291 the Emperor himself was too powerful and smart to understand the need of faith, the need of of it and how his crusade against it fed chaos, the cults were pushed down to the darkness, now without being accepted they subjected themselves to chaos, not only that.
      The Eldar is a proof of how wrong he is, the Gods can be used even if they have chaotic origins, today, the Emperor is a god because this is the best course for the Imperium, he is better being locked into the golden throne, being honest his rule was genocidal, feeding chaos with the deaths, and each aspect of the Emperor maintaned chaos alive.
      His aristocracy and elitist view powered Slaanesh, his warmongering nature fed Nurgle, his schemes and planet sized conspiracy web fed tzeentch and his immortal nature, the imperium death, disease and fear of death only pushed Nurgle into being more fed.
      The Emperor alone in my view, Fed chaos more than any other human cult

    1. Angron - He never pretends to be something he isnt and his story is so tragic, a slave who wants freedom by any means even death repeatable just passed up to a new master. From his homeworld to Big E and now Khorne, Angron has no character growth because he was never allowed it, anytime he had a chance to become something better a new chain was slipped around his neck and he was dragged down.
    2. Guilliman - 30k i dont give a fuck about bobby G but in 40k he is amazing, he is such an interesting contrast to the modern imperium and the way the universe is weighing on his shoulders and you can just feel it everytime you see him.
    3. Mortarian - When i first got into Warhammer Mortarian was the first primarch i was drawn too but for a long time it felt like the more i learned about him the less I liked him until recently I watched a video talking about him that made it all click. Mortarian is a hypocrite, and he knows it. In falling to Nurgle he has become the very thing he hates most and there is nothing he could have done to avoid it, so he doubles down he pursues vengeance against the imperium because its all he has left. That tragedy, that total defeat is what makes him interesting to me.
