I was reading the latest Vigilus Ablaze preview on Warhammer Community, and yeah, if you've read Bell of Lost Souls, you would already have seen the Havocs. The new Havocs look really, really awesome. But if they only have the option for one heavy weapon each instead of, you know, the whole squad carrying the same heavy weapons (1 lascannon, 1 heavy bolter, 1 reaper autocannon, 1 missile launcher, 1 reaper chaingun, possibly 1 plasma cannon in an unseen sprue, instead of 4 lascannons or 4 reaper autocannons or the like, ugh).
Yeah, you can see the Havocs up there, can't you? Yay...I think. We're getting new Havocs along with Obliterators, so hip, hip, hooray...
Anyway, while going through the stuff, this caught my eye.
Look at the last Echoes of War mission. It reads Demise of a Legend. And since these misions are all modeled after the campaign lore and narrative, you know what this means, don't you?
Marneus Calgar is dead. Or will be dead. Well...if not him, then Abaddon will meet his demise here, but that's impossible. No way will Abaddon fall here. That would mean the end of the Black Legion and the elimination of the threat of Chaos, which...is just unimaginable. Nope, Abaddon will definitely survive. So this more than likely means that Calgar will meet his demise. Poor guy. He got Primaris-ized, only to die in the second Vigilus book.
Of course, I could be wrong, but you're free to speculate and add your opinions regarding this. Do you think this is the demise of Calgar? Of Abaddon? Or some other legend (but who else is in Vigilus at the moment?)? Who knows? I guess we'll find out! What do you guys think?

As far as legendary named characters, Pedro Kantor is also there. His model is also pretty dated.
ReplyDeleteOh, the Crimsons Fist guy? You might be right.
