    Angel's Exterminatus cover

    http://www.blacklibrary.com/Blog/Hells-Angels.html

    Have a look.

    Perturabo looks nothing like I thought he would.

    It also appears that the Emperor's Children are well and truly daemonic now.

    Just saw it a few minutes ago. Neil Roberts is definitely getting better and more awesome with each composition.

    I don't mean to be all negative and moany about Eldar getting killed all the time, but the notes accompanying the pictures don't give me much hope for a good showing by the Eldar here...

    Seriously? We get an awesome cover about the HH book and we start to go into the ''Eldar are GW's punching bags'' frenzy?

    I was going to comment about how quickly the Emperor's Children seemed to have gone full blown Chaos whilst the other Legions are only just starting to go down that trek.

    They are pretty far gone as per Graham's Primarchs novella. I'd say they are right up there with the Word Bearers at the moment.

    How do you know someone will post about Eldar being treated unfairly?
    Someone starts a new thread.

    As for the cover, it looks nice, but what is this book even about? I checked the BL site a few days back and don't remember seeing this one.

    I read somewhere that the plot ties in with the Emperor's Children story from the Primarchs novel. It has something to do with Iron Warriors and Emperor's Children working together towards some goal and Eldar get in their way.

    Perturabo actually looks pretty much like I expected him to do, rather similar to his depiction in Collected Visions. It's a bit of a shame that Fulgrim is so much in the background though. At least we have no clown Angron this time!

    It's pretty interesting that the artwork has already been completed though, from reading Graham's blog it seems like he's only just started to get into the real meat of writing the book.

    Looks interesting. At first I thought that was a necron warrior being shot in the foreground, now I'm just scratching my head over what the glowey Eldar are supposed to be. *crosses fingers that they are not just punching bags*

    To be fair, they are being led by a daemon.

    Or are they? Dun dun duuuun.

    As to the glowy Eldar, it does say on the webpage that they are fighting Eldar "revenants" so that might be why they glow.

    This novel would also tie in with the Iron Hands novella from The Primarchs since the Eldar there did try and warn Ferrus Manus about the Angel Exteriminatus.

    I'd seriously suggest reading The Primarchs.

    Unfortunately, I don't presently have the money to be buying Black Library books, but if you don't mind placing spoiler tags around it for others' benefit, what does The Primarchs say to change the fall of Fulgrim on Istvaan?

    This is basically the BIG spoiler for Fulgrim.
