  • As the Siege of Terra drew to a close, Perturabo - the Primarch of the Iron Warriors, would choose to abandon the world and withdraw from the conflict completely. But what could have happened if Perturabo, and by extension his legion, chose to remain upon Terra?

    *Addendum* : I made a minor error at around 10:28. While Magnus was banished from the Imperial Palace, he was *NOT* actually driven back into the warp itself.
    I had misremembered that specific detail, so I apologise for the mistake.
    This means that Magnus should also be added to the list of active traitor primarchs mentioned at 11:13

      Magnus’s decision to even join the seige was single-minded at best, as he had only one 1-2 goals which was to gain his Noble Soul-Fragment/Shard. But when that goal became impossible, for reasons which lead to Malcador’s first death of the siege, lol(poor Malcador, he really earned that Hero title by the Emperor)
      Magnus’s new goal then became to go Kill the Emperor, which lead him to the Golden Throne and Vulkan having to hammer some sense into him!

    These videos always lighten my mood. Welcome back rem and naerina. Already know it's gonna be great. Honestly this is question I've thought about a ton. It's one of those things that's one of the most defining moments of the entire siege, maybe even the entire heresy.
    A couple things that may have happened though. If perty had stayed, regal might very well have not joined the emperor aboard the vengeful spirt, since he understood the tactical intelligence of perty and was, let's be real, gunning for him. If he hadn't joined the emperor, and it played out the same way, with Horus being slain and the emperor mortally wounded, it entirely possible no one else might have been able to get to the emperor in time/slash the ones who were there wouldn't have known what to do.
    Another thing is whether or not the loyalists would have killed perty, and if not , if he would have become, or even wanted to become, a daemon primarch following the loss.
    Also damn I edited it before I saw the heart :(

      The Iron Warriors carried the whole damn Horus Heresy until right at the end!
      "War is math!" - Perturabo.
      There is an old saying that goes something along the lines of "amateurs study tactics, professionals study logistics". Because tactics may win battles, but it is logistics that wins wars. That is why Horus was terrified of Robute Guilliman, and his Ultramarine Legion. He sent TWO Legions against them ... and it wasn't enough!
      Guilliman was (and is) a logistical genius, and the only one on the Traitor side that could match him was Perturabo. Regrettably, logistics is often though of as being "boring" so it does not receive the attention it deserves ... not do those who master it.

    Perturabo is the Master Destroyer. He is unmatched in war. Not in battle. In war.
    His grinding methodology, unshakable resolve and the fact he could use his Daemon Primarch brothers, would have spelled the end for the Emperor's forces.
    He would also make *extensive* use of the siege weaponry at his disposal. Properly. No more throwing legion upon legion at the walls, basically at random. Perturabo, you may remember, broke the Aegis: the void shield system, that protected the Emperor's Palace. If he could do that, then what would he have made of the Ultimate wall? Child's play. After all, he and his Astartes, wargamed assaulting the Emperor's Palace, extensively.
    Additionally, Perturabo's logistical skill, rivals that of Roboute Gulliman's. The armada would be better organised, better armed and much more able to mount a comprehensive assault on Terra. It's possible that Perturabo would destroy the Holy Mountain from orbit.
    The Master Destroyer is, without doubt, one of my favourite characters. Conflicted, conceited and unfathomably intelligent. Horus lost the siege, because Perturabo left.
    But that's just what I think.

  • @RedMageNeko
    @RedMageNeko 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I actually didn’t realize till watching this video that once Perturabo left and Mortarion was banished that there was basically NO primarch in command of the traitors. Angron by that point (and to be honest long before) was basically just a battering ram. He could cause some chaos, but in truth? That’s it. He would have no interest or desire to do much more to breach the palace walls then throw bodies at it. Which makes it all the more confusing to me HOW Perturabo became a daemon primarch, much less and undivided one considering his absolute disdain for his brothers “pet monsters”.

    I mean, Dorn discovered the weakness in Saturnine in the book, while Perturabo had known about it for months. Yes, it was a trap, but a trap hastily put together at the last second. He still managed to overestimate Dorn wrt Saturnine, and if the gambit could have been employed earlier, it would have succeeded.

  • @clusterfuck7375

    Perturabo would have won the siege, sieges are by nature very attacker sided since the attacker has the freedom to do whatever he wants while the defender is most often forced to simply try and hold for has long as pooible without a hope for a true victory (Look at most historical sieges). It is also very fitting that Perturabo would leave the siege since he hated chaos and most of his allies had already been corrupted by it and so the war had truly lost its purity, what we also have to keep in mind if that by having Mortarian take over the siege Horus is also not giving Perturabo the credit he is due just like the Emperor.

    If Perturabo hadn't abandoned the Siege of Terra, the loyalist casualties would have been much higher, though I think that the traitors would have lost as the Ultramarines would have shown up with fresh reinforcements and the traitors could suddenly find themselves being attacked on two sides as Guillemen would have been not only attacking the traitor fleet in orbit, but also landing fresh troops in the traitors' rear and that could have been the push for the beleaguered defenders to rally and push back against the traitors.
    That could have also rallied the Space Wolves and the Dark Angels and convinced them to commit to breaking the siege.
    The Emperor could have given a similar offer to Perturabo for what we now know as the Primaris Marines and there is a slight chance he might have switched sides as he didn't really think very highly of most of his traitor brothers, that and he was basically soloing the entire conflict by this time.

      The only issue with this is that the Ultramarines would be doing blind drops, since both space ports were taken by the traitors.

  • @gabrielseth5142
    @gabrielseth5142 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I don't think the outcome would have changed in the end if Perturabo stayed. The Iron Warriors were the only ones to remain close enough to the legion they once were, it was on a crash course for infighting. Horus preferred the "council" of commanders like Abaddon to those of his brother primarchs, his command of the war effort was slipping and I'm sure if he found his own sub commanders taking to the abominations he looked down on he would have consolidated his legions strength more and more. The forces of chaos fought each other about as much as they fought the loyalists and his exit likely salvaged the war effort for the traitors. Perturabo very well could have just looked at his position and the IV's and said "you know what, I got more in common with the guys on the other side of that wall and as much as I hate Dorn and the Emperor, maybe they'll grant me leniency if I start bombing the literal demons clawing at the walls, eating century old heros the Emperor and Dorn will look past what I've done and be relieved to have an extra 100 000 plus space marines materializing in enemy territory to help." Perturabo left because it was no longer a legion war, if Horus had stopped Perturabo from leaving he would have at the very least flat out turned against the traitor legions, at worse he might have actively started supporting other loyalist operations, him parting ways was the only option all things considered

      @@LupusGr3y 'What happened?' can't be answered in-universe because as you point out here his becoming a demon prince/primarch makes no sense given his previous thoughts and words regarding chaos - both the warp in essence and its attendant and resultant corruption - and his actions when he perceived chaos had so suffused and pervaded the other traitor legions, which were his allies.
      'What happened?' can at least be tentatively answered in real life and, for me, it's just bad writing, perhaps driven by some need to have an equal number of demon primarchs of chaos undivided as of single patron chaos gods, perhaps under the misguided 'creative tutelage' of some-or-other department head or project manager at GW, perhaps stemming from too free a hand given to too narratively lax an author fulfilling a commission for the Black Library print house. Maybe some combination of all of these or none of them.
      I'm just pretty sure that the whole nonsensical development is just plain bad writing. Too little quality control, too small a talent pool, too few keen eyes for oversight, too poor a sense of deference to established lore.

    I think the defeat of the Traitors was truly realized on Tallarn. If Horus had not chastised Perturabo for seeking the xenos artifact behind his back, had trusted that his intentions were pure (which they were), then I don't think Perturabo would've abandoned the siege. Horus was just too arrogant. Had he not made Perturabo kneel before him in front of his own warriors, Horus might have won the war.

      He knew, and was most likely just fed up with everyones shite. Horus had gone mad at that point, his other brothers were also deep in the thrall of Chaos and their legions were following suit. The siege devolved from Astartes vs Astartes to Chaos vs Anything untainted, and he was disgusted with it all and said fuck that shit I'm out. At this point, the Iron Warriors had bled for everyone BUT themselves and at this point we see them truly begin indulging in their own wants and desires.

  • @Lumen_Obscurum
    @Lumen_Obscurum 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I like to imagine that Perturabo's ascension was more akin to becoming a living siege weapon rather than a Daemon Prince like Fulgrim or Angron. In essence becoming akin to a Defiler rather than a Greater Daemon. Sealing his corrupted form within a hull of his own intricate design, binding himself to the machine rather than being forced in by hereteks and warpsmiths. It would also be a further development on his self-made armour, and dedication to siege warfare to become the ultimate siege breaking weapon.

    • @Lumen_Obscurum
      @Lumen_Obscurum 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      But in response to the actual video, if Perturabo had remained in command of the siege the Traitors would have won. Firstly as stated the Iron Warriors were and are masters of siege and trench warfare, only matched by the Iron Fists and then I would argue one is the master of siege defence and the other the master of siege attack. The loss of Perturabo's expertise along with the knowledge of his legion meant that the traitors lost the only tool that could defeat Rogal Dorn's siege defence skills. I believe Perturabo would have had the Emperor's Children and Fulgrim himself act as a morale destroying force to disrupt internal operations, weakening the chain of command between the Primarchs and the non-astartes defenders. Only one Traitor could have broken the Siege, and his brother failed to see that usefulness and keep him in position.
      From memory of my tabletop days, Iron Warriors had a large volume of heavy weaponry. If this was true during the Siege, that means that losing the Iron Warriors meant more than a standard Legion's worth of artillery and heavy equipment was lost with them. I would argue that out of all the Traitor Legions, the worst that could have abandoned Horus at that time was the Iron Warriors. In the situation practically built for them, he mistreated Perturabo and lost the tools to defeat the defences. That's without even accounting for the fact that Perturabo could have orchestrated defences to hold off the incoming Legions for long enough for the remaining Traitors to escape with their spoils. Terra would have been cracked like an egg, and only the empty shell left for Guilliman to find.

Mortarion had been staunchly anti-warp and I would like to see how this would have affected the Traitors and the Horus heresy should Mortarion have stuck with his anti-warp views. I do not see him being welcomed back into the Imperium and he probably doesn’t want to anyways. I suspect that both the traitor and loyalist forces would go after him for abandoning their cause after the conclusion of the Heresy. Mortarion would probably claim his little empire and rule Barbaros. But if he hates the warp more than the Emperor, he may assist the Imperium and the Imperium will begrudgingly accept his help given the rather dire situation the Imperium is in right now. On the heresy itself, would this be enough to affect the heresy in any meaningful way?

    Perturabo knew the traitors were going to lose due to Horus underestimating his loyalist brothers. Especially that of Jaghatai and Vulkan who actually killed or forced out all of the traitor Primarchs that were killed or forced out.

This from a logistical genius and builder is almost an unbelievable character flaw that should have been noticed and dealt with long ago before the heresy.
    Of course that would have prevented the story and so we must simply accept the words written as is. Perty was always someone's B until he traded those prison daddies for warp daddies with bigger spikeyer strap on. And he deserves it.
