The Tyrant of Badab by Paul Bonner

[frogblast-the-ventcore]

“10,000 years ago, our enemies attempted to murder The Emperor. Our imperiums founder. Today, we remember the hope he gave us, the purpose he gave us, the VISION he gave us. A vision in which humanity reclaims its rightful place in this galaxy!

"Years from now, you will tell your children of this day! THE DAY HIS VISION, BECAME A REALITY!”

- Lugft Huron Delivers a speech to the Tyrant Guard before the assault on The Maelstrom, during the Badab War.

Horus Heresy: On one hand they had a full nine legions of the God-Emperor's Angels of Death. On the other hand, they only even came close to succeeding because of the Istvaan Dropsite Massacre and the Ruin Storm, neither of which would work on the others.

War of the Beast: The Krorks are basically unfallen Orks, the Orks that lived during the War in Heaven. They were from before the Immaterium became the Warp. They were also a complete failure to write a coordinated story, so who knows what they could actually accomplish. Other than the fact they combined a Super-Duper Warboss with a Super-Duper Wyrdboy. They could probably ignore warp storms.

Siege of Vraks: This was kept going by bureaucratic incompetence, which the Imperium has an abundance of.

War for Armageddon: Everyone was fighting everyone. It would only take an extremely small change to completely change how things unfolded.

Badab: Badab was defeated by the shear inevitability of plot. The only way the Imperium could defeat Badab was by... completely retconning everything about Badab. This could only be done by a villainous pact with the ruinous powers. The Tyrant's ultimate discipline was turned into buffoonish villainy.

Black Cruades: 14th time the charm.

The Warhammer 40k universe is a brutal and unforgiving place, where war and conflict are constants. Among the factions vying for power, the forces of Chaos stand out as some of the most fearsome and deadly. These servants of the Dark Gods are led by powerful champions, warriors who have dedicated themselves to the cause of Chaos and who wield incredible power on the battlefield. In this article, we will take a look at 10 of Chaos' greatest champions from the Warhammer 40k game universe, each one a formidable opponent in their own right. 10) Skarbrand "I will rip the bones from your body and leave your skin to rot! But your skull I will give to the skull-god, and it will be one among the multitude." Skarbrand is a powerful daemon in the Warhammer universe who was once the greatest of all Khorne's Daemons. He has won countless victories through an eternity of battles in the Blood God's name. Skarbrand is a paragon of violence and a whirlwind of bloodshed and destruction in whom the Blood God once rejoiced. He has slain untold millions, left entire worlds ravaged in his wake, and even ravaged the realms of the other Chaos Gods. It was Skarbrand who destroyed the First Palace of Slaanesh and killed Nurgle's great Poxviathan. Skarbrand led the eight Hosts of Murder to their triumph over the combined armies of the other Chaos Gods. 9) Huron Blackheart "The only reward for loyalty is betrayal." formerly known as Lufgt Huron, was the Chapter Master of the Astral Claws, a renegade Space Marine chapter that gained notoriety as the piratical Red Corsairs12. He was also the ruler of the planet Badab Primaris, which he ruled with an iron fist, earning him the title Tyrant of Badab2. After his fall to Chaos, he became an inhuman servant of Chaos, and is now the master of the Warband of piratical Chaos Space Marines called the Red Corsairs. Huron Blackheart is also known as the Lord of the Maelstrom and is the dark-souled king of an empire of monsters1. He possesses many superhuman abilities, including enhanced reflexes, senses, strength, speed, durability, resilience, stamina, limited regeneration, night vision, longevity, and excellent melee prowess. 8) Erebus "That which we foolishly call truth, is only a small island in a vast sea of the unknown. For Man to truly flourish he must willing to abandon the ever-shrinking island of such petty 'truth' and surrender himself to the reality of that which is beyond." Serving as a senior Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers Traitor Legion. He was originally the first chaplain of the Word Bearers Space Marine Legion at the end of the Great Crusade and during the Horus Heresy in the early 31st Millennium. Erebus is considered one of the most prominent members of the Word Bearers Chaos Space Marines and a member of the Dark Council of Sicarus. He was instrumental in converting first Lorgar and then Horus to Chaos, and refers to himself as the Hand of Destiny, the mortal instrument of the plans of the Ruinous Powers. Erebus is considered by many to be the single man most responsible for the Horus Heresy. 7) Fabius Bile "If a man dedicates his life to good deeds and the welfare of others, he will die unthanked and unremembered. If he exercises his genius bringing misery and death to billions, his name will echo down through the millennia for a hundred lifetimes. Infamy is always more preferable to ignominy." Fabius Bile is a character in the Warhammer 40k universe. He was born to a minor noble house during the Unification Wars of the 30th Millennium on Terra . He was once a Lieutenant-Commander and Chief Apothecary of the Emperor's Children before he fell to Chaos and joined Horus in his heresy against the Emperor. He is now an infamous mad scientist, specializing in genetic manipulation and the creation of Enhanced Warriors. Fabius is also known as the Spider and the Primogenitor and is a Chaos Space Marine. He

is capable of cloning and providing augmentations to others but is hampered by his absolute sadism as many of these experiments tend to be. 6) Typhus the Herald of Nurgle "Look upon me and know that I can slay you at will. You have no defence save one: to look into the darkness at the back of your own mind. There, you will find Father Nurgle waiting to offer you life in return for your submission. Deny him, and you are mine." the Herald of Nurgle, He is a Chaos Space Marine who serves as the champion and most trusted lieutenant of Nurgle, the Chaos God of decay, pestilence, and corruption. Typhus is the leader of the Death Guard Traitor Legion, and is considered one of the most dangerous and powerful champions of Chaos in the galaxy. Typhus is known for his formidable fighting abilities, his skill with a scythe, and his ability to summon swarms of insects and clouds of poisonous gas to spread disease and destruction. He is also capable of summoning units of Nurgle daemons to aid him in battle . In addition to his combat abilities, Typhus is also a master of contagion and infection. He has the power to spread diseases and plagues across entire worlds, and he often uses this power to weaken his enemies before launching a full-scale attack. 5) Lucius the Eternal "Brothers! Welcome to the feast! Tell me, which among you will be the first course?" one of the most powerful champions of the Chaos God Slaanesh. He is also known as The Soulthief, Fulgrim's Champion, Blade of Aeons and the Scion of Chemos. He was originally the Captain of the 13th Company in the Emperor's Children Legion, where his skill with a blade quickly became legendary among the Legion. However, he ultimately betrayed the Imperium and became a lord commander of the Emperor's Children Traitor Legion. He wields the Lash of Torment and the Blade of the Laer. Lucius is also known for his ability to steal the soul of his opponents when he kills them in combat, and he takes on their appearance and memories. 4) Kharn the Betrayer "The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We've all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we've all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. Khârn the Betrayer is a Chaos Space Marine of the World Eaters Legion, and he is the greatest mortal Champion of the Blood God Khorne in the galaxy. He is second only to the Daemon Prince Angron in power and is known as the avatar of Khorne, embodying that god's indiscriminate rage and bloodlust. Kharn is equipped with Khârn’s plasma pistol, Gorechild, frag grenades, and krak grenades . He currently leads his own World Eaters warband called the Butcherhorde. The name "Betrayer" was granted to him much later by the followers of the Emperor. Interestingly, in an act of unusual dignity, Khârn’s battle-brothers bore away his corpse and took it with them when they fled the Sol system after Horus’ defeat, but by a dark miracle, Khârn still lived and the Blood God was not finished with him. 3) Angron The way he honoured Kor Phaeron? No, no and no. No mercy for Angron. Angron the Oathbreaker. Angron the Betrayer." He is the Daemon Primarch of Khorne, also known as the Lord of the Red Sands, and the Primarch of the World Eaters Space Marine Legion. He was raised on the brutal world of Nuceria, fighting as a gladiator slave and having his aggression enhanced by surgical implants. Angron is known for his incredible fighting skills, power, and rage, and is considered one of the most bloody-handed and savage of all the Primarchs. 2) Abaddon "I am the Arch-fiend, the Despoiler of Worlds, and by my hands shall the False Emperor fall." Leader of the Black Legion, and one of the most powerful Chaos Space Marines in the galaxy.

Abaddon is known for his cunning, strategic mind, and immense combat skills, making him a formidable foe to any who stand against him. Abaddon is a former member of the Sons of Horus Space Marine Legion, who was chosen by Horus to lead the Black Crusades, a series of massive invasions into the Imperium of Man. He is also known for wielding the legendary daemon sword Drach'nyen, which is said to have been forged from the shadow of the first murder and can kill even the most powerful of enemies. Abaddon is also a master of dark magic, capable of summoning powerful daemons and using them to his advantage. In the lore, Abaddon is depicted as a charismatic and ruthless leader, who can inspire his followers with his speeches and lead them to victory in battle. He is also depicted as a complex character, with a deep-seated hatred for the Imperium and a desire to see it destroyed, but also a sense of honor and loyalty to his followers. 1) Horus The greatest traitor in the history of Mankind. Horus is a pivotal character in the Warhammer 40,000 universe and is the central figure in the Horus Heresy, a conflict that led to the downfall of the Emperor and the Imperium. The Horus Heresy is a time of great conflict in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, pitting brother against brother and the legions of space marines against each other as the Emperor’s dream of a unified human empire are brought crashing down by Horus’ ambitions. The galaxy’s messiest breakup didn’t get its name until 1988, with the first edition of Adeptus Titanicus. The NOVA Open Reveals article describes Horus as a fallen demigod in thrall to the Ruinous Powers, a stark contrast to his former, noble self.

Care to tell us the tale of the Tyrant of Badab?

Been thinking about Ironwood in 40K, and he is basically the Tyrant of Badab.

He was such a good hero, that the only way to turn him into a villain was by making him idiotic ball AND the villain ball.

Lufgt Huron, Tyrant of Badab and Chapter Master of the Astral Claws

[kierongillen]

This is incredibly dorky, but a page in Marneus Calgar #5 has got me curious. What sort of time frame do you put on Marneus first becoming a Scout to his ascension to Chapter Master? In the "Voiceless Pacification" panel he is seen as a squad sergeant fighting(murdering) two T'au. This is before the Damocles Gulf Crusade as he was already Chapter Master when it ended in 745.M41, the same year Behemoth invaded Ultramar. How soon before the DGC started did the pacification start? Thank you.

I honestly wouldn't want to say any more than is in the comic. At least part of the fun of stuff in 40k is that period when something is little more than a name, and you're left filling in the gaps in your imagination. I'm not sure how many years the The Badab War and The Tyrant Of Badab were little more than those two phrases before meat was put on them, for example.

(I'm frowning here, and trying to remember the first time I saw it mentioned. Was it in a compendium article with a bunch of marine colour schemes? I may be wrong and there was more there, but you get the broad point)

I also wouldn't say it, as I wouldn't want to limit any other writer (including myself) from making fun choices in case they ever wrote about it.

Does that make sense?

Assigned to one of several strike forces participating in the apocalyptic assault on the Palace of Thorns, Apothecary Novuther was attached to Zhrukal Androcles’ squadron in the dying hours of the Badab War. Though he parted ways with the good Captain to head a separate squad of Star Phantoms breaching teams as the drop strike came to its climax, ironically this would come to save the healer - distanced as he was from the final battle of the throne room, and the 9th Company Captain’s dying blow upon the Tyrant of Badab.

Pictured in standard issue Mark VII power armour of Apothecarion refit, Apothecary Novuther’s scheme is primarily that of his Chapter - the Star Phantoms, clad as they are in a get of white, need not apply the sub-colouration asked of the Apothecarion’s adepts, relying solely on helix signifers and ubiquitous wargear to denote their healers.

Timeline of the 41st Millennium: 901-912.M41

 Lufgt Huron, Chapter Master of the Astral Claws, revolts. An Imperial investigation fleet is destroyed in orbit of Badab, killing 23,000 agents of the Imperium. Huron declares himself Tyrant of Badab and secedes from the Imperium. The Badab War follows.

I thought it was his face that got fucked up by a melta blast to the face. I might be wrong

From the Lexicanum page on him.

“Huron was defeated - the right side of his body destroyed by a melta blast from the dying Loyalist Star Phantoms Captain Zhrukal Androcles”

Now remember, Melta weapons are meant to destroy tank armour, they can obliterate a Terminator. The fact even 50% of Huron survived means he must of been insanely lucky and took a glancing hit.... like, the metlat blast just clipped his right hand. (Yes that is how deadly this weapon is.)

[askmalal]

Huron Blackheart: Alright, you’ll all only tell me the truth, is that what you claim?

Khorne: IT IS.

Huron: Then tell me this: what happened to the Eleventh Primarch?

Nurgle: Freaked out, joined the Army, became a professional hitman.

Isha: *jabs him in the ribs with her finger*That is literally taken from “Gross Pointe Blank.”

Hashut: Killed in a plane crash with Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper.

Nuffle: Allergic reaction to Nutella.

Khorne: THAT WAS ACTUALLY CLEVER.

Nuffle: Aww, gee... *blushes*

Slaanesh: Fell to Chaos after reading Snookie’s autobiography.

Tzeentch: That is patently absurd, all of it. The mortal wants an answer. Give him one!

Neocho: I don’t believe in answers.

Khorne: KILLED IN GLORIOUS BATTLE.

Me: *blinks* Well done, old man.

Khorne: ...WITH SUPER GROVER.

Me: Right, now you’ve ruined it.

Huron Blackheart: Can none of you take this seriously?

Me: You don’t want to know, little mortal. It is simply that.

Huron Blackheart: Ridiculous! I am the Tyrant of Badab, the savior of Humanity!

Nurgle: I can’t -believe- I’m saying this, but... there is a reason The Anathema ordered it never to be spoken of.

Tzeentch: DON’T say his name. Three times and he’ll appear. Like Hastur, sans whimsy.

Huron: I demand an answer! I’ve earned it!

Me: You truly want an answer?

Huron: Yes! No jokes. No puns. Nothing about “going to live with his auntie and uncle in Bel Air,” none of this. Truth!

Nurgle: Tell him, Mal...

Me: *sigh* -HER- story is a sad one...

Huron: *mind blown*

[skelegun]

When they eventually get around to doing the book for the Imperial Army/Cults & Militias, I want to do an Army of Dark Compliance which is basically the Horus Heresy equivalent of the Tyrant’s Legion from the Badab War books. I’m such an edge lord that the closest thing I have to an Imperial army is my old Tyrant’s Legion/Astral Claws force which doesn’t even have modern rules. Though they existed before rules for Allies were a thing so it was really cool and unique to have Space Marines and guardsmen in the same list.

It’s a shame Forgeworld doesn’t do cool shit anymore like the badab war or the siege of vraks, and are basically just do Horus heresy shoulder pads now. I know they’ve always been part of GW so it’s not a perfect analogy but it kinda reminds of when like EA or Activision buys a cool studio like Monolith or Raven and is like “oh hey you are doing Call of Duty til the end of time now”

[cas-covered-in-bees]

Okay, I've been thinking about this for a while. @asktheblackestheart you'll probably be most interested by this concept *deep breath* Imagine a TV series based on the Badab war, 1st season starting off with Huron as a true loyalist, newly ascended to the rank of chapter master and slowly growing sceptical towards the IOM, starting with him tolerating Garreon's experiments until he secedes (maybe show him losing a good portion of the 10th due to lack of reinforcements, with him getting word that the reinforcements aren't coming before running out into the field to try and save them and sway the battle only see them cut down by enemy fire) from then on out its just battle after punctuated with him swaying other chapters to his cause,as he descends further towards evil, The penultimate episode culminates in his "death " and Valthex carrying him away, and you think it's over then BAM surprise episode, where Garreon, Valthex and one of the captains trying to keep the remaining forces under control after believing their attempt to resurrect him has failed. Just as things are reaching their boiling point, a we see the Tyrant's claw begin to twitch, a slow string version of Hurt begins to play as Huron brings himself to his feet, looking down at the twisted abomination he has become, and he collapses in pain, his screams drowned out by the music and the sound of fighting as the captain is torn apart by marines who have rallied behind a new commander. Huron staggers out and drags his way to the place of the fighting and bathed the rebels in flame and for a second we see the pain leave his eyes. The surviving marines turn to face him in shock as he rasps the words "I... live..." I have a bunch of other scenes I'd like to see in it, but I needed to get that in the open.
