Re:Dark Angels revision details from GD Atlanta! - 2006/03/26 23:17
quick copy/paste from one of my posts on warseer.. about this subject.
"recently got ahold of an OLD WD. issue 96 to be exact. is either before it hit the shelves here or it's the UK edition (lots of maps and store locations, etc.). adds a bit of light, or more confusion, on the whole thing..
GW should just stick with the fluff they set out, and only ADD to it. not go back and keep changing things here and there. FYI.. RavenWring used to be the 7th company! not the 2nd.
either elsewhere in that issue or a later(slightly mor erecent-low 100's) one... the feud between Johnson and Russ, is described TOTALY different. ending it as "a feud at best.. outright enemies at worst". which goes against nearly everything the current fluff has things set as (reguardless of logan putting an end to it durring EoT). but i can see now where some less than (currently)accurate renditions of the story have come from (major long time players/collectors). and i can only wonder at what other stories there've been about the events durring the horus heresy.
putting it all under lock and key, like it seems they're going to do, i can only imagine will leave the doors WIDE open for mass missinterpretation(maybe with all the previous versions of it.. i'm just missing their point in it). they should just say, now, "it's only ever been, is, and always will be THIS..". get everything cleared up in one go. "
