Yeah, that always bothered me. The company has stated explicitly that these two Primarchs were intentionally left blank so that a player could have fun and start up his own legion based on a Primarch of their own design.andrewgpaul wrote:No, not really. There's a couple of mentions of their existence, but that's it. They're deliberately left undescribed, so there's room for players to make up their own Legions in their games. Sadly, the majority of the fanbase considers this deep heresy.
But as usual it seems to me that game players in general don't like these kind of open ended things in their fluff. For example in the VtM setting the company tried to keep things about the Antedeluvians very vague on purpose to allow the players to imagine things out on their own with the philosophy that what players sometimes come up with is way better than an "official" fluff explantion but players seem offended by this notion and want everything explained to them.
I never enjoyed that aspect of the gaming crowd. The company is doing you a favor and leaving back story open to interpretation by YOU the player and that somehow makes you angry?
