Thanks to Meros foiling the attempt of Sanguinius being corrupted to Khorne, the Blood God had to settle for a consolation prize with Angron.

[@leodiusd4858]

Angron is by far the strongest daemon primark, so i would say he got something better

[@witmanntheinfinite]

@@leodiusd4858as a normal primarch v primarch match, Sangi wiped the floor with Angron. Now imagine a fallen Sangi with all the things Khorne been giving to Angron. You now see how stupid you are. If you want to compared any Primarchs to each other, you need to also consider the hypothesy of if the Primarch is alive (in this case Sanguinius) nowadays with all the power the other Primarch gets from a god if he has fallen to said god. You just can’t go willy nilly and said “hUh DuH, kHoRnE gEt A bEtTeR pRiZe BeCaUsE aNgRon”.

[@paimonisfood4986]

Well Angron is arguably the most powerful Daemon in existence so at least he got something out of it. Can't really tell what a Khornite Sanguinius would've looked like but I'm sure he'd be greater than Daemon Angron. Even still, reappearing 8 weeks or 8 days or 8 hours after being banished is still very very scary so Angron is no one to be sleeping on.

[@orbitalbutt6757]

Settra is the only guy to be offered _literally everything there is to offer,_ godhood, a universe of his own, EVERYTHING THAT CAN BE CONCEIVED OF and tell the ones making the offer to suck his skeleton pecker. He was so inconceivably offended and absolutely fucking outraged that they would even make the fucking offer, to HIM, to Settra (many titles follow), that he swore that was personally going to kill all four of them. Then Settra ordered Nagash around like his servant, calling him a mere prince of Khemri and said that once he was done with *them* he was going to come back and fuck up Nagash too. Settra _does not serve._ Settra _rules._ He's the most badass character in Warhammer Fantasy by a long, long way.

The Blood Angels and World Eaters are kind of sad mirrors to each other. The Blood Angels were berserkers made to be Noble by their Primarch. The World Eaters on the other hand were actually Noble before Angron and after Angron they became berserkers. Even so they were so noble that they had the largest percentage of loyalists within the traitor legions. Just something to think about.

Where Magnus is the arch traitor and mortarion becomes the face of the Imperium. The blood angles get tricked by a Tzeenchian daemon who says their curse will be removed if they attack Fenris and kill Leman and his legion, though Russ does end up escaping.

Maybe not quite as prolific, but definitely more horrific in my opinion, was Gol Kolea's sacrifice to try and save his children in the Gaunts Ghosts novels. It was a harrowing and ultimately grimdark moment for sure.

[@mogar2813]

What happened to him?

[@hallowed_grounds]

@mogar2813 His children, who he thought had died on his homeworld after a chaos attack, got taken in by the Ghosts retinue. They then proceeded to live and grow with the Ghosts, and Kolea decided to watch them from afar so as to not disrupt their lives from being brought up by their adoptive parents, giving them the most normal life he could. They eventually find out and reconnect, and the eldest child Dalyn gets inducted into the Guard, while Yoncey the girl stays with the wives and other retinue members. Kolea then has a moment where he could swear he had two sons while remembering an interaction with his wife. They then get assaulted while fighting chaos again, and it turns out that the children have been dead the entire time and have been replaced by woe engines, as part of a long term plan by an Archon of chaos to sow discord and kill the upper echelon of the Sabbat Crusade. Yoncey reveals herself first, and kills a fuck tonne of the retinue. Dalyn has a moment where he tries to remain human, while Kolea tries to talk to him like a father, who loves him. Dalyn loses the battle and transforms into. Kolea steps forward into the woe engine and is obliterated after realising that he has failed his children, even though they weren't really his the entire time. A fucking powerful piece of writing, in my opinion, bearing in mind we are with these characters for at least 13-14 books. I can't remember which one it is.

One I can think that made a similar sacrifice is Targutai Yesugei, chief Stormseer (Librarian) for the White Scars Legion. The White Scars were cornered by the Death Guard and Emperor's Children at the Catallus Warp Rift. Yesugei used a Dark Age of Technology device called the Dark Glass to open a webway portal to allow Jaghatai and the White Scars to escape to Terra. The Dark Glass is similar to the Golden Throne with similar effects. It destroyed Yesugei and shredded his soul. He knew it would kill him to do what he did and he did it anyway to save Jaghatai and the White Scars.

[@christiandauz3742]

And ultimately stop the spread of a new plague that would have ravaged the galaxy.

I'd say that Malacador the Sigillite made a bigger sacrifice.

[@hudsondunn8385]

I think you mean Malacador the hero.

In modern 40k, the Red Angel helped open the portal through which Ka'Bandha would materialize over Baal to attack the Blood Angels during their battle against Hive Fleet Leviathan to turn them to Khorne. Also, another son of Sanguinius would sacrifice himself to become an angelic Warp entity. The original Sanguinor, who was a regular Blood Angel with a mask of Sanguinius welded onto his face and who would act as a body double while Sanguinius was Emperor of the Imperium Secundus, volunteered to stay behind and hold the Daemon of the Ruinstorm impaled onto a Warp gate in Davin while his father, Guilliman and the loyalist marines retreated and the Lion bombed the crap out of Davin from orbit. Right before leaving the temple, Sanguinius looks back at his Herald and sees the Warp energies turn him into a golden angel, his ceramite golden armor moving like it was flesh and skin, and his ceramite wings becoming animated like Sanguinius' own wings. It's very likely this is the origin of the Warp entity of the Sanguinor.

Video idea. What happened the loyalist space marines from traitor legions who joined the loyalist legions, is there any notable names? If so which legion and why?

[@wincentwass5818]

Name a bigger sacrifice than this I would say that the emperor simply being the emperor is god enough

A true MVP. Kinda goofy book, but this definitely was awesome.
