Slannesh vs Khorne

for all those warhammer 40k fans, which is the more sadistic torturer, the bloodthirsty Khornate warriors of the world-eaters or the twisted noise marines of the emperor's children.

Tzeentch owns them both.

but didn't the emperor's children supposed to render people down to drugs etc, they actually seems more sadistic then the more simpler rage of the khornate forces.

This thread is heretical, and the Emperor has sent the Adeptus Astartes to deal with it. You are hereby declared a traitor to the Imperium of Man, and have been ordered to Processing Building 34C for extermination. Should you not comply within 7 days of receiving this notice an Assassin will be sent to eliminate you and you will also be assesed a small lateness fine.

Slaaneshi forces of course. The Khornate people could care less about torture they just want to kill your ass.

Probably a tie.

Obviously the Emperors children are the most sadistic torturers. although a certain World Eater Apothacary might argue about that.

In direct comparison of power of both the Powers themselves and their representative Legions.

Khorne and the Worldeaters.

Hell, the Codex actually states catagorically that Slaanesh has NO chance against Khorne and on Skalathrax the emperors Children got the shit kicked out of them by the World Eaters..

Case closed.

Actually, in the Codex it states that Khorne's rage simply outlasts Slaanesh's endurance.

And the main reason the World Eaters won was because Kharn-about-to-be-called-The Betrayer was there. When a big guy Chosen by Khorne comes at you with a Chainaxe and a plasma pistol, and says "Fight them or fight me!", Then charges in your direction anyway, you make it a point to keep fighting as damn hard as you can, if for no other reason other than to keep him from reaching you.

Kharn's dead, on the other hand, if he ever faces Lucius.

" Does not have the resources to seriously challenge the Blood God: The nature of his power is such that it will ultimately expend itself long before Khornes hoardes have satified their bloodlust "

Khorne will ALWAYS be more powerful than Slaanesh, all his champions are, his Daemons etc etc

Every time anyone fights...their emotions and soul will feed the power of Khorne...Slaanesh can never truly compete with this. neither can any of the other Powers.

And you are wrong about Skalathrax, the World Eaters had won basically, but the Daemonworlds unatural climate was about to kill everything not in cover, the majority of the World Eaters did take cover, Kharn got brassed off, grabbed a flamer and went to work on everyone and anybody.

But the World Eaters had the Children on the run before this " one last push" IIRC

And do you truly think Lucius would defeat Kharn ?

Stat wise Kharn has better WS and attacks, although Martial pride and IIRC combat drugs may allow Lucius to equal this, although equally frenzy and Rage of Khorne allow kharn to top Lucius .

Lucius Weaponskill is irrelevent as Kharn will always hit on a 2+

The great leveler is of course Warp Scream, but to be honest and taking fluff into account, I severly doubt this would affect Kharn, hes shrugged off Slaaneshi tricks like that before, from a Daemon Prince no less, the fight ended with Gorechild doing something terminally unpleasent to the Daemon Prince.

This is the guy who can kill 40 Berserkers of Khorne in a few minutes..all at once..ON HIS OWN!!!!

Fluff wise Kharn bitchslaps Lucius into nothingness, he would manage it pure rules wise save for the Warpscream effect.

As for Lucius coming back from the dead and possessing Kharn...dont make me laugh!

The most Exalted Champion of Khorne in the Galaxy is going to be possessed by a Slaaneshi pleasure slave

I somehow doubt Khorne will let his most Favoured die like that.

Lucius is everything but a Pleasure Slave.

Remember, Slaanesh is more than just sex. It's also perfection.

That was the Children's downfall. Their desire for perfection in everything.

Lucius is one of those who found his pleasure in the pain of combat. He is a cosummate warrior. Heck, his pride is such that he's actually a better fighter against guys like Kharn than he is against a unit of FireWarriors!

Plus he has an invulnerable save. A great thing to have when Power Weapons are invovled.

He just aint good enough im afraid

That was the Children's downfall. Their desire for perfection in everything.

Downfall to chaos yes...later on it was their attacking the other legions for pleasure slaves!

Remember, Slaanesh is more than just sex. It's also perfection.

for those who seek it...

Lets comparw battle cries:

Slaneesh: (something about beauty and perfection) screamed by a guy in flourescent colours.

Khorne: BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD. SKULLS FOR THE THRONE OF KHORNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! screamed by a frothing maniac running at you in a mad battle rage, all dressed in red with a dirty great big axe!

I'm going for Khorne! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!!!!!

I'd be more worried about the Noise Marine, myself.

After all, I know the Bezerker is only going to kill me.

I think extremely kill is a more accurate.

And to be honest, most Noise marines will kill you...granted usually in fairly strange ways...and your corpse gets reduced into a drink but they still kill you.

although after reading Chaos Child, I will kill myself before i let a noise marine near me..

basically they had daemon beasts that raped people...and the leash led back to their groins.
