    @jesseberg3271 8 месяцев назад +6

    I feel like, this retelling, while excellent, misses the full Helm's Deep-esq "turning of the tide" element of the battle of Lanshear. I understand the Oculus's focus being drawn to the Primarch, but it was truly his sons, the Mechanicus, the Excertus, and ultimately the organization that Guilliman had built that won the day, not just he himself. To listen to this account, one would think that the loyalist forces were losing at Lanshear until the grid was reactivated. In fact, this was not true, and the emergence of Ultramarines aligned forces, out of hiding and seemingly out of thin air had already stretched Magos Tawren's calculations of how long the position could be held from mere minutes to many hours. Even a counter attack by traitor Titans was blunted by the emergence of loyalist engines. That all of these disparate forces managed to coordinate their arrival at Lanshear in such quick succession that no element could be picked off by Word Bearer forces is incredible. Especially given the limited communication they had at their disposal, and the fact that many of them were engaged at the time. Ultimately to have forged a force capable of doing that, after taking the kinds of losses they already had, is far more impressive than ripping Kor Pheron's heart out, or even surviving in near vacuum. I little doubt that the Lord Guilliman would agree.

  • @CrimsonQuill086
    @CrimsonQuill086 7 месяцев назад +1

    My favourite part of the Betrayal at Calth is that even as the Ultramarines rallied the defence, even as they drove the Word Bearers from their system, even as they laid vengeance upon those who betrayed them...the Word Bearers had already won. Though even Lorgar would not know how until the Fateweaver himself showed him...by Kor Phaeron's hubris, the fate of the heresy had been set...
    The sorrow of the murdered star system drips from your narration. This was no victory, for the dead were beyond the count of Grief. If there is a victory, it is that, for all the death that occured, all the people of Calth-Primarch, Astartes, Mechanicum Tagmata, Auxilia, Civilians-were united and resisting the tide of death upon them. Calth stood together. And for all that the Ultramarine's systems were turned unto them in the initial attack...they slaughtered the Word Bearers once control was returned.
    Well might one bear the Mark with pride, bitter and grim though it may be.
