    My favorite Primearch has to be Sanguinius. He's arguably the strongest of the 18 sons plus he looks like a damn god just like his father.. Plus Sanguinius also has a really cool theory where he kills Horus because of the black rage and the emperor has to kill Sanguinius instead

    I'd have to say that my favourite two Primarchs are Rogal Dorn and Magnus. This is largely because of their roles in TTS, but also because they are either genuinely good, heroic people who stood side by side with the Emperor against impossible odds during the Imperium's darkest hour in the case of the former, or a tragic figure coerced bit by bit into joining Chaos through the manipulation of their abilities and good intentions by dark forces more powerful and sinister than they could've ever imagined in the case of the latter.

      In general, I find the traitor Primarchs more interesting.
      Horus for his charisma, Lorgar for his fervent quest for the truth, the tragedy of Angron, Magnus for his curiosity, Perty for his rejection of the Chaos Gods whilst not being a loyalist. It's questionable if the Alpha-Legion is truly a traitor legion even. Not a big fan of stinky Morty or Bat-Man wanna-be Konrad, Fulgrim is just a perv.
      As per the Loyalists, The Lions sons treatment of anyone even seeing a Fallen makes me dislike them, Ferrus... well he's dead, Jag, is just uninteresting to me (probably the most level headed primarch but that doesn't make for good stories), Leman Russ of the Space Furries, Rogal I like but TTS has a LOT to do with that, Sangy just seems 'off' that the angel also = a vampire, G-Man the accountant, Corvus the Emo (barf), & then there's Vulkan who I like but TTS also played bigly into that......

    My favorite Primarch is Jaghatai Khan.
    Most people think of him as just ''Ghengis Khan in space'' but he's so much more.
    Besides being a speed freak & mighty warrior, he's also very interested in fine arts like calligraphy & music and has encouraged his sons to embrace them too. Because, we may be savage warriors who love to crush our enemies and see them driven before us, but that doesn't mean that we're uncultured philistines.
    Also, he's actually one of the most level-headed & reasonable Primarchs. He tried to be diplomatic with the whole psyker issue between Magnus & the other Primarchs.
    He knew that the Emperor was essentially an absolutist tyrant, but when Horus tried to get him on his side using that argument, he replied: " Yeah sure, our father is basically an immortal intergalactic dictator, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna turn into worshipping demonic entities from a dimension that is essentially hell, basically becoming their slaves. I mean common guys think for second, we´re supposed to be genius demi-gods!"
    If half his brothers had as much common sense, like the Khan, the whole Horus Heresy would have never happened. Or the way he handled the fact that some of his men went traitor.
    He basically killed most of the traitors on the spot and then send the last remaining ones who plead for mercy on a suicide mission, where they died in order to create an opening for the rest of the Legion. Compare this to how the Dark Angels handle the Fallen.
    Oh and he's a great troll & shit-talker too.
    Fulgrim: "I hear you do weird things with your ships."
    Jaghatai Khan: ''And I hear you do weird things to your Astartes...."
    It would be cool if he eventually returns to the setting.

      Exactly, he's the only loyalist who stood on that side for a good reason, while not having any illusions about the kind of monster his father was. While it might be hard to personally dislike Sanguinius, Vulkan, Guilliman, the naive fools apparently were truly charmed by the Emperor and honestly believed that pompous narcissistic ahole was humanities saving grace. Khan is much more reasonable this way, he just made a judgement call on what's the lesser evil

      I doubt that he wanted to be in power forever, it's just that the problems he had to solve on the time he had and his godlike persona distanced him from what it is to actually be human and this reflected on how he neglected his sons, like he was speedrunning his way to advance humanity

Which is pretty much the encyclopedic definition of how narcissistic personality works - they always genuinely believe they're only taking control because without them everything will go to shit. Pretty sure most tyrants in history thought they were merely doing the bare minimum to save and advance their people.
      Here's the difference though: unlike petty mortals, Big E is a godlike being with something approaching omni-knowledge. In "Mechanicum" it is explained, how he calculated and manipulated millennia of human civilization to come to his goals. So mistakes that would be at least understandable for anyone else, for him are inexcusable. I personally think the short story "The Last Church" does a great job of showing how his mind works. Another character throws the truth about tyranny in his face and what's the only response Emperor gives? "The difference is, I know I'm right". That's the true mind of a fanatic.

      @@Orimthekeyacolite Yeah but the problem is that he was not trying to shape humanity to his will for the sake of his view, but trying to stop the literal doomsday, he saw chaos approaching and knew humanity as it is had no chance of survival and WE as outsiders (readers) know that if not for him it was either chaos or any of the other shit. It was indeed his way of thinking and narcissistic approeach to the problems needed to be solved that caused the Horus Heresy, if he ever stopped, had a deep breath and gave the attention, and trust to give an explanaition that his sons needed, it wouldnt have happened at all.Almost all of the tech humanity uses now was created by him and mechanicus are the guys that only exists becaus ehe shared the know how and means of production, wich is why they have so much power in the imperium, humanity would have to fight all those horrors with tech worse than the most basic weapons the imperium has right now.
      The Last Church event is a prime example of him not wanting to be a God, not because of his narcissistc ways but he knew corruption by faith would happen, just like it happened on the Horus Heresy, Chaos would have his way to corrupt faith even on the hearth of those that are good, his own son not only worshipped "good gods" that where Chaos god in disguise but also Big E and was corrupted regardless of him being one of the guys that view him so high.

      "and WE as outsiders (readers) know that if not for him it was either chaos or any of the other shit"
      I don't think that's true at all, actually. In fact, there's only so much we can ever know for sure as readers, given how a lot of the "information" we get in the books is nothing more than POV by unreliable narrators and personal interpretations/opinions of characters who are heavily involved on one side or the other, and thus - hardly objective. Once again, just to be clear: I don't doubt the Emperor himself believed his version of future history, nor that he had good reasons to, with his powers of premonition and the ability to calculate hundreds of steps forward. But that doesn't mean we - or any of the characters, for that matter - should automatically buy into his vision and accept it as canon. However godlike, he's still a person, proven to be just as prone to making mistakes as anyone. With the only difference that his errors of judgement inevitably turn catastrophic in scale!

I even thougt if he's not a Chaos God himself, hiding very well. He is calling himself the Hand of Destiny and it feels like he is always at the right place at the right time to spread corruption.

      The man literally turned evil because he got stabbed with a magic knife and then a random Word Bearers chaplain *who he had literally just caught lying to him like five minutes previously* showed him some LSD visions of a possible future.
      Magnus even psychically projected himself (at great cost) into Horus' mind to be like "This dude is evil and lying to you," but Horus took the side of the proven liar over his own brother, and then went *so hard* into evil that he tricked Russ into destroying Prospero, killed a bunch of his own sons who he knew would stay loyal, and then orchestrated the Drop Site Massacre.

      He certainly does,
      justice from the author as to WHY he chose to believe Erebus over his own brother Magnus in that situation. There should have been at least a 5 page dialogue of Horus talking to himself regarding this supposed future where half his brothers are treated as Gods & the other half erased from history. How he views that this cannot be accepted and how he feels betrayed by his Father the Emperor for hiding this intentions from him. Perhaps also have him lament on the Thunder Warriors to make the comparison to the Astartes as he slowly comes to his conclusion that Erebus, while even shown to be deceitful to Horus, may be the one telling the truth (which he was actually, just not showing it to Horus to PREVENT it from happening, but to ENSURE it)
      Then flesh out to much greater detail how he slips into Chaos instead of that huge leap of character from the 2nd to 3rd novel.

    @Dodsodalo Před rokem +15

    Magnus, Angron and Mortarion are really the most tragic of all the Primarchs, Magnus, cuz he actually tried to help, but Leman and Magnus' beef pushed him to Chaos, Angron, because he, along with Corvusz understood the wrongness of tyranny and was forever scared and broken because of it, only to see all the ever cared for die, because his father wanted to use him as a tool.
    Mortarion, because he STILL hates the warp but is unable to fight his god, and understandably hates Typhus for bringing him and his son's to such lows, yet whose souls still is untainted with his scythe showing that even though he fights for a cause he loathes, a part of him will never truly kneel to it, as his final spit in the face of chaos and nurgle.
    Honestly those are the best traitors primarchs, for the loyalists, Corvus, Jaghatai, and Vulkan for all being the absolute most reasonable and just of the loyalists.
    Corvus told the Emperor if he betrayed humanity and shit, he'd rebel and kill him, to his fucking face.
    Dude hated tyrants but also hated evil, so no chance that Chaos would be something he'd side with.
    Vulkan for being the only Primarch to truly love not just Humanity, but the humans of it.
    Flawed for slaughtering followers of xenos who were saved by said xenos, to which, he would later regret, so whilst zealous, capable of understanding what to regret and try to do better.
    Jaghatai....
    The only one that wasn't fucking retarded, like honestly he genuinely did Intel gathering during the Horus Heresy to figure out which side we're actually fighting for a better future for humanity and not just their end goals.
    Eventually figuring yeah, Emperor is far bigger of a prick than he thought, but understandably so seeing what he has been facing all along, the forces of Chaos. And actually thought of things and wasn't blinded by prejudice or honor or pride.
    He stick to what he agrees to, call bullshit out when it happens, gets shit done without a damn about honor or bragging, and just tried to do what was best for humanity, and didn't let himself get blinded by prejudice towards psykers or unusual mortal abraces in the Imperium.
    Honestly considering his family, I would also fuck off to the farthest reaches of space to get shit done and not have to bother with my objectively batshit insane family and their solar system sized egos and fuck weird traditions and etiquette.
    Truly the most sensible of the primarchs.

    Everyone is picking all the fun Primarchs but my boy Papa Smurf, aka Roboute Guilliman doesn't get the respect he deserves.
    The man literally put together an entire empire within the imperium of man, and has been cobbling together the Imperium at large at every turn. Sure he's not as good at any of the thematic strengths of the other primarchs, but from the perspective of a regular human (outside of Vulkan's/Salamanders' save-a-villager approach): Who is the one still around, working ceaselessly to keep a semblance of safety and stability for mankind?
    He is the best at nothing but #2 at everything kind of guy. Jack of all trades, the hero mankind needs.
    The man handles his own in duels vs his brothers, even 2 on one. Has an eldari death goddess waifu, survives chaos inflicted wounds, built the arguably most prolific astartes legion, is not his father's favorite (Horus) but IS the one that's chosen after everything is said and done.

    Vulkan and the Salamanders have always been my favorite legion for their style, tactics, and character. They also have some of the greatest battles in their lore and are honestly much more interesting, to me, to watch interact with the greater imperium and xenos threats around them, given their more humanitarian views and ideals, but also their brutal nature in combat. Plus, dragons are cool, and the idea of dragon slaying just being the TRAINING EXERCISE for them is ridiculously badass.

    Conrad Kurze is my personal favorite. Such a unique character. Equal parts pure evil and weirdly selfless empathy. The only primarch with no adopted family, he was literally raised by the streets. An absolute nightmare to fight against, but not motivated by rage like Angron or joy of battle like Russ or Khan. Just an inhuman being with unfathomable goals and motivations who seems to understand things deeper than any of his fellows. He reminds me of the Logen Ninefingers character from the First Law series mixed with Rorschach from Watchmen

    Honestly i like the idea they're from a tube more than from a single mother who was also a perpetual who made a deal with the chaos gods.
    Mainly cause the idea in my head would be that The Emperor, in his quest to perfect humanity and bring them to conquer the galaxy, would have gone around terra either stockpiling genetic material to creature his sons in a series of failed experiments until he got the magic formula OR found what he would have considered to be the peak of current humanity woman (at the time) and created his songs from their eggs.
    It would also, again this is to me, show someone what lf his cold love for humanity in how he could have gone through that process, either secretly through regular medical examinations to take their eggs or openly through careful seduction before leaving them in the dirty to further his goal.
    But again thats just my take on it. Love the videos man. Keep it up 👍

    Ideas for Primarch 2 and 11:
    Primarch #2 grew up on a jungle planet raised by Australopithecus who is a Tarzan/Rambo and likes to wear leopard skin. He also recruited the indigenous apes into his ranks as Space Marines.
    His legions is the Jaguar Dawn.
    Primarch #11 is basically a Captain Ahab/Captain Nemo who grew up on an ocean planet filled with sea monsters, adopted by a King and Queen. In his late 20s he was saved from drowning by a Nereid(mermaid) and has been searching the planet's oceans to find her ever since. He loves her so much, he would do anything to find her(even if it means giving into the powers of Chaos). He and his legion basically end up like Davy Jones and his crew.
    His legion is the Siren's Songs.

    0:31 I'd argue that Caliban was inspired primarily by judaic and biblical motives (the names of the most space marines in the early lore suggest that). The Old English/Arthurian veneer was added later, circa 2011-2012 with the publishing of Savage Weapons and The Lion (novella), where characters like Corswain were introduced and developed. This might have been caused by the change of DA writers from Scanlon and Lee to Gav Thorpe, or maybe Alan Bligh came up with an idea of a revamp after the first HH Dark Angel novels bombed.
    Whatever the reason may be, this adds an interesting eclectic twist to their culture, that's for sure.

Horus wasnt scared of sanguinius, robut, or even the emperor. he was, however, scared enough of the dark angels to send them so far away they could never reach tera in time to lift the siege, AND he sacrificed the nighlords to keep him there. the lion was the only tactician that Horus knew he couldnt best.

    Upon learning about other primarch, I thought Ferrus Manus was actually good. But sad to see him get decapitated as if he wasn't able to fight fairly. On my list, I think Corax sits at first since he and I are not so different (in invisibility of course). Next is Sanguinius, an angelic figure that is literally badass during horus heresy and outplayed Angron. Still mad at how he was mutilated by Horus during their fight and how the Emperor wouldn't immediately take down Horus. Lastly is either Vulkan cuz he's such an emotional and loving primarch that would help others and gets constantly get revived. It's crazy how he is still missing to this day and assumingly Trazyn may have probably put him on a stasis. If not Vulkan, I'd say Rogal Dorn is my least favorite as to how this man defended the Palace during Horus Heresy.

    6:41 Its important to clarify that Salamander skin tone is a feature of theirs that stems entirely from the conditions of the planet they live on. They Are not ‘Ethnically Black’ as their skin tone is described as charcoal as a result of their exposure to the conditions on the planet they are on. The image used to depict a salamander is more akin to an ethnic African American. Other Salamander pictures ive seen more accurately show a charcoal black skin colour as opposed to just a brown African American appearance which is completely incorrect.

    Recently I got back into 40k with the 10th edition rules coming out. I used to run generic Chaos Marines and Tyranids. The more I looked at lore the more I liked Lion and Magnus. More specifically I enjoyed Magnus's journey and that he really didn't think anything he was doing was wrong due to the influence of the Chaos Gods (namely Tzeentch) and then turning into a super demon because of it. Lion's Dark Angels are just interesting because they're so zealously honorable. They want to find and either kill the ones that aren't apart of their legion as they're supposed to be because they're traitors to them. Lion is kind of a bit more of a foil and guidepost for them instead of them running wild and going full Inquisition on people.

    Primarch 2 is a man who became so zealous that he would have been considered to put logar to shame due to his pious actions. Never turning to chaos, but bonding with magnus the red and his pysker abilities in order to better combat the demons of the void to better serve his father constant disobedience of dabbling in the eye of terror to test one's abilities while exposure to the warp of his chapter wasn't taken seriously. Corruption of his marines did slowly but surely begin to show obvious turning of behaviors. Friending banter turned to argument....comradery turned to competition and when it was forced upon him to eventually and personally kill all of the sons in his chapter. Each one told to be dismissed in original or alternate ways . All but 12 remained...it was said that a different space marine vocational purpose was born, but not as a chapter with a primarch whom was banished with his own crusade to fight and never stop till death or enemy take him. They would be reintroduced during the horus heresy as you know them as the grey knights. Why their number ironically 666, if this is a holy order to the imperium? To never forget that their holy brotherhood was crowned on the tarnished beginnings of their father, primarch and dead chapter brothers due to honorable intended demon fighting that will forever struggle throughout eons and till the end of time...unless the 4 lay banished at their silver feet
