Angron's roid rage meant that his bodyguards probably had less to do with protecting him and more to do with protecting other humans from Angron's fists.
Loving the content keep up the amazing work can't wait for the list of guard regiments definitely one of the nicer to watch lore tubers so thank you for the great content
Always found it funny that a primarch needed an honour guard, I mean, if something comes that is a threat to a primarch what are these guys going to do besides getting blown to pieces? The concept of having an elite above everyone else is fine, but the primarchs are so above everything these guards could do in terms of power level its not even funny imo :)
It's part of esprit de corps. The pride and morale of a fighting unit. There HAS to be an honor guard for the troops to feel like they have something to aspire to and have people to look up to as role models.
If its Siege of Terra then its not pre-heresy because Siege of Terra was part of the heresy. They were already fallen. Also here is the information from official sources: The Anointed are the most favoured Heretic Astartes warriors within the Word Bearers Traitor Legion and represent the members of an elite cult within the broader Legion. The Anointed wear fully enclosed, ancient suits of Terminator Armour and serve as Chaos Terminators on the battlefield. Each suit is a relic of unholy significance, as to don this armour is considered a great religious honour amongst those who serve the Ruinous Powers. Once a warrior-brother has entered the ranks of The Anointed, he is a member for life, and with lifespans extended indefinitely through a combination of their Astartes conditioning, bio-enhancement and the warping power of the Chaos Gods, the Anointed are only replaced on the rare occasion that one of their number falls in battle. Many of them had fought alongside older members of the XVIIth Legion and their holy Daemon Primarch Lorgar at the great siege of the Imperial Palace during the closing days of the Horus Heresy at the Siege of Terra. Unsurpassed warriors with the hearts of true fanatics in the service of the Dark Gods, the cult of The Anointed had won countless battles for the Legion. Their glories were sung in the flesh-halls within the shadowed temples of Sicarus, and their deeds recounted in the grimoire historicals housed in the finest scriptorums of Ghalmek. Additionally, a Word Bearers host often possesses an Icon Bearer and an elite unit of The Anointed, consisting of over 200 Chaos Terminators. It is also common for Anointed warriors to accompany important figures within the host, such as the Coryphaus or First Acolyte.

Thank you! Glad you like it
No amount of training and experience in a Space Marines Bodyguard cannot stop a Primarch from killing them and still fight their brother.
Yep, but thats more of a morale thing

Agreed. its like giving a toddler a controller and allowing him to act like he is playing the game - boosts the spirit
Not really, in the earlier lore Primarchs weren't retardedly OP like they seem now, look at what Meduson almost accomplished.
The Annointed are the elite terminator body guards of the Word Bearers i believe.
But not pre-heresy
@@TheLostPrimarch Kol Badar is said to lead some Annointed in the siege of terra, the annointed were a pre-heresy thing. (Word Bearers Omnibus)
