Always found these portraits interesting, when it comes to the quality.
Fulgrim is the absolute worst one. Which is weird, considering it shouldn't be hard to make him the best one.
The Lion, the Khan, Russ, Curze and Mortarion look great.
Perturabo is easily the best one, straight up kino.
Sanguinius one is just odd. I can't tell if I like it or hate it.
The rest look average to shit.

I think an Aspect Warrior game would be cool.
Do a bunch of missions, first as a guardian, then later as whatever aspect you choose.
Want to defeat enemies up close? Pick Howling Banshees or Striking Scorpions.
Long ranged? Dark Reapers.
Short ranged? Fire Dragons.
Hit-and-run? Howling Banshees or Warp Spiders.
Jack-of-all-trades? Dire Avengers.
If you pick the same aspect 3-4 times and perform some extra tasks you get stuck as an Exarch - more powerful but you can't change aspect anymore.

That isn't what happened. He publicly embarrassed him and let Mortarion and Leman Rus shit all over him infront of all the legions, then told him to go home and never practice magic ever again. This being said to the man and the legion that are entirely defined by their acuity for magic, and you know what, Magnus complied with his order. It wasn't until Magnus literally saw Erebus stab Horus with the chaos dagger and saw that he was going to be corruptted that he thought he had no other choice, and largely he was correct(Horus was able to change the emperors orders to Leman Rus from just arresting Magnus to killing him and all the thousand sons). So yes the emperor was wrong as he put them in a complete lose lose situation. Horus knew Magnus knew what he was and was going to deal with him one way or another. Siding with Mortarion and Leman Rus over Magnus was a mistake. Keeping him out of the fold of all of your plans was a mistake. Even after the fall when Magnus snuck into the palace to, and the Emperor told him that he could be redeemed but he had to kill all of his sons, that too was a mistake. Magnus was the most important primarch, and the Emperor consistantly kept him in the dark, left him on the edges of the Imperium, and sided with shit bags like Mortarion over Magnus. All he had to do was bring Magnus to Terra after Magnus discovered the webway and read him into his webway project plans, and the Heresy would have gone very diffferntly

Things could be infinitely worse as Tzeentch could likely still corrupt Magnus at any time because Magnus isnt resistant to corruption like the Big E or Malcador due to their thousands of years of experience.

If Big E keeps Magnus in the loop then its quite possible he sits on the golden throne becomes a puppet for Tzeentch and corrupts the entire galaxy towards his will.

The main point of the Emperor hiding things is explained that through his powers of foresight he knows that if he tells his sons about Chaos or his secret projects worse things will happen due to them thinking Chaos can be used as a tool. Now imagine that mind then plugged into the Golden Throne or having access to the Emperor's other projects and you might get an idea that yeah the Emperor was completely right. The real problems in the setting are Lorgar being an idiot manchild and Russ thinking everyone should bend to his ideals because Fenris is the most important thing ever. Essentially Russ is a shitty version of The Khan who has no sense of anything outside himself and is only loyal due to his genes rather than actually making a conscious choice towards understanding good or evil. For all intents and purposes id put the Space Wolves as the most unfit legion to exist in the galaxy because they dont understand anything outside their petty supersittious mindset.

he did. in the book where Magnus and the Emperor fly together through the chaos in a flashback story. Magnus tells that he thinks he is smarter because he made them accept his deal to save his legion for his one eye, which of course was a trick.

So Magnus knew. He just thought there are also helpful forces in the warp which help he gladly accepted to reach the Emperor. Which of course was also a trick to fuck everything up.

>Things could be infinitely worse as Tzeentch could likely still corrupt Magnus at any time because Magnus isnt resistant to corruption like the Big E or Malcador due to their thousands of years of experience.
Even more reason to keep him close
>If Big E keeps Magnus in the loop then its quite possible he sits on the golden throne becomes a puppet for Tzeentch and corrupts the entire galaxy towards his will.
It was always the Emperors plan to put Magnus on the throne.

The emperor never told him shit, he just vagueposted. I mean hell Magnus sacrificed his eye and all the Thousand Sons were running around with little demon pets and the Emperor didn't think to pull him aside and say, "Hey these are actually demons that want to eat your soul and the thing you gave your eye to is actually a horrific warp god that uses trickery and manipulation to fuck the universe up."
