    Brother! Your love of the Imperial Fists and our beloved father Rogal Dorn is quite inspirational. I love the Imperial Fists and I love Dorn so much they are both my favorite chapter / legion and favorite Primarch.
    The yellow originally turned me away from the Fists, and I originally went Ultramarines, but reading about the Fists and Dorn forced me to change my mind despite the yellow and over time I grew to love the Imperial Fist yellow
    In my opinion they are one of the most underrated chapters / legion and Dorn is one of the most underrated primarchs. I love Dorn because he is a simple but very complicated and misunderstood man. Where others see boastful foolhardy overconfidence I see a man who keeps quiet, listens to everything considers everything and then talks when he has something to say. A man who js straight forward, speaks his mind and respects himself and everyone else too much to lie or to dance around the subject. I see a man who is the paragon of loyalty, a true epitome of all that it means to be a space marine and an embodiment of the ideals of the Great Crusade.
    I will not say that Dorn was without flaws, he had his flaws as well as anyone else. While I admire the man for speaking his mind, telling it how it is and not dancing around the subject, it was also his biggest flaw and in my opinion it was this reason that made Horus the better choice for Warmaster (that and Horus was the Emperor's precious baby) had Dorn not had this flaw, this flaw that was one of Horus' strengths, then Dorn would have likely been the best choice for Warmaster. As Dorn possessed most of the qualities that the other primarchs possessed and was regarded as the best overall strategists of all the primarchs, including Horus. (Although to be fair, Dorn's abhorrence of things like espionage and hit and run attacks do make him not as tactically flexible as other primarchs, though do not let that fool you, the Imperial Fists are masters of most forms of warfare)
    I certainly believe Dorn is still alive and will return soon. However, if he did indeed die that day, he died like a true Imperial Fist, sacrificing everything in the face of impossible odds holding off Abbadon and his black crusade, hopelessly out match. Yet they held it off long enough for reinforcements to arrive.
    Alpharius may have humiliated Dorn by infiltrating the Imperial palace, but Dorn paid him back by defeating their invasion and killing Alpharius. Making him 1 of only 3 (arguably 4) primarchs to kill another Primarch: Horus, Fulgrim and Dorn (arguably Guilliman).
    Primarch progenitor, for your glory and the glory of him on Earth!

But Abaddon does it and it's oh it's cause he couldn't win the fight. Makes no sense to me.
      Anytime the Canon advances and has anything negative affect the Imperium, all the fanboys will cry and complain. But if it happened to any other species they be totally okay with how they advanced it. For the story the imperium needed to suffer a major loss, that way the bringing back of primiachs makes sense as it's in the time they are most needed.

    Dorn is my favorite Primarch! And at first was because of TTS, that was how I was introduced to Warhammer. But reading the official lore just made me love him even more! Yes he is blunt, but that’s because he is honesty personification! He doesn’t lie and can’t be lie to! Nobody can’t deceive him and that’s impressive! He is the one that could know the true Alpharius because even his tricks didn’t work in Dorn! Their fight was the one of my all time favorite Warhammer moment!! My Lord Adornable lives in my heart! And his sons are the best ones!! Polux is my favorite specially because his friendship with Dantioch, making my dream of them working together a reality for a few seconds!! And I almost forgot to mention that the Phalanx is the most amazing and fantastic ship ever!! Most beautiful and my favorite!

      nono547 I get that but there is literally nothing known about the other 2 lost boys so they could be alive, died before the emperor even got to them or been cowards.
      We just don’t know and I have trouble attributing that to Rus sure he’s a good fighter but he’s an even better shit talker and you know he would be using the fact he ganked two Primarchs to intimidate the traitors at some point before he bounced for no good reason.

      I get where you are comming from, we have no direct observations of this event, but that doesn't mean indirect evidence are not valuable either.
      I am no lore expert but from what i know Horus sure do seems to have known the Lost primarchs (he sure act like it, in front of macharius the sigilit), peoples call leman Russ the emperor executioner, and leman Russ seems to have regrets over hus status as an executioner.
      So who did he execute to deserve resentement from some primarch and from himself if it is not the two Lost primarchs ?

    • @anerd2886
      @anerd2886 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      nono547 You’re probably right and Rus did kill them but I’m of the mind that offscreen death is always a fake out and someone will eventually do something with them even if it doesn’t make sense. The mystery is what makes the two lost primarchs interesting and saying Mr. Doggo killed them offscreen just falls flat from me.

He even gets plenty of shit for it from other captains, but doesn't care, because he is stubborn.

    Hey Valrak, I got a question for you.
    I've always wondered how the Fists lost their Sus-an Membranes and Betcher's Glands. I know they were all killed During the war of the beast, and had to be rebuilt via their successors, but still. Their Successors has the same gene-seed, so It doesn't make sense to me for them to suddenly lose those organs. I know each chapter's gene-seed usually belongs to that chaper alone, but the Blood Angels were rebuilt during the devastation of baal via their Successors and Primaris reinforcements, but they still have all they're organs. Could you please explain this? Thanks. For Dorn and Sanguinius!

  • @alexramey2062

    The reason why 5th company black looks so good with Fists is because yellow and black are both construction, as well as demolition, colors. Grey Knights say they're the hammer? Well they haven't seen what we can do with one, lol.

He and his legion were the only legion specifically designed to kill all other legions... including the fists. And they would have succeeded. Horus feared russ above pretty much all the other legions. He had hoped russ and magnus would destroy each other. But Russ and the rout were called repeatedly the most loyal of the emperors Warriors.
