    Konrad is the most jaggedly written primarch in the setting. He nearly kills The Lion in their first fight (the first time when Kurze was on top of Lion, strangling him and it took the interference and a Dark Angel to save Lion. I'm aware that he got bodied the second time.), but then Vulkan says he's weak and everyone went easy on him. I guess Konrad's only as strong as the plot needs him to be at any given time.

    • @sovietunion7643
      @sovietunion7643 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Konrad beat the crap out of Rogal to near death and fought Sangunious to a stalemate. He is also said to be like Corax's evil twin in power when Corax and Kurze met claws and saw each others eyes and Corax is top tier as well. So Curze is pretty top tier in melee. He also defeats Valkan in unremembered empire and kills him but he regenerates again.

      Konrad is nigh-unbeatable when the writers remember that he can see the future. Like when he fought the similarly precognitive Sanguinius, who I think is pretty much established now as being the most powerful Primarch in melee combat, and neither could even scratch the other.

It makes you love vulkan in a way you just cant love the other primarchs.its so heartbreaking watching him go through all that. That and personally, it removes any sympathy for Conrad i possibly might have had at any point afterwards. If there was a single brother he had that he should have been kind to, it was vulkan. Hes the only one who would have tried to empathize with him and even attempt to consider what he was going through. And rather than respect or appreciate that, he ripped dude apart. Conrad is a bad person, his tactics are not better than the other legions, and he deserves no sympathy.

    The Salamanders need some love in the lore. They're usually just background characters when they deserve to be main characters. During the Great Crusade, they numbered as few as 7,500 Space Marines, but they still managed to bring planets into compliance just as effectively as some of the larger Legions, and have since not only recovered but managed to remain the most true to what they were when they were a Legion.

      ​@seanyoung9014 batman can't kill his villains like joker for many reasons not just he doesn't like killing.
      For one. Killing them opens up the extreme possibility of power wars for their underlings to take the place of who was killed or rival gangs. It also removes the trust of the GCPD in batman.
      The most important reason is that if Bruce kills, he won't be able to stop. Unlike superman who doesn't have a no kill rule for that reason. Batman can't succumb once and that's the jokers whole mission. To get him to succumb. Gotham is ruined if Bruce Wayne kills

    Kurze can see the future and know how one will die so I have this funny scenario where each time Kurze look at Vulcan he would be shown vision of Vulcan's death and he would do exactly just that. But Vulkan will just regenerate giving Kurze ANOTHER vision of the undying man's "death". Instead of driving Vulkan mad, Kurze was the one getting insane from "PERHAPS THIS TIME IT WOULD WORK!!!"
