乌兰诺是乌兰诺星域(Ullanor Sector)的核心世界 1
乌兰诺远征是大远征的无可否认的转折点,是人类之主御驾亲征的结束。此事件发生时间节点:000.M31

乌兰诺远征
范围:至少包含乌兰诺星域(Ullanor Sector)
兽人方重要参战者:乌兰诺兽人帝国的统治者乌拉克乌尔格(Urlakk Urg)以及至少40名它的亲卫?2戈戎的巨型兽人军阀3军阀乌拉克乌鲁克(Urlakk Urruk)4
假,这段流传甚广的假剧情纯粹是把两段不同的剧情合在一起
首先掐帝皇的兽人是天龙星区(Telon Reach)的无名兽人军阀,在这个故事里,荷鲁斯是废了军阀的手臂使得帝皇有了喘息之机,荷鲁斯独自击败的是帝皇本尊根本没有参加的对抗乌兰诺帝国最后一战中的最大的boss乌拉克乌尔格(Urlakk Urg)。
"The Telon Reach was but a satrapy of the largest empire we have ever encountered, one that must fall before the Crusade can continue,' said the Emperor. 'It will be magnificent, the war we will wage to destroy this empire. You will earn much honour in its prosecution, and men will speak of it until the stars themselves go out.'
"And this is it?' asked Horus, leaning over the glowing hololith. First one, then dozens, and finally hundreds of worlds were outlined in green.
'Yes,' said the Emperor. "This is Ullanor.3
帝皇向荷鲁斯介绍天龙星区只不过是最强大的兽人帝国乌兰诺的边缘一块。
是的,前面有一段是那么说的:
Chugging rotor cannonsbattered the Emperor's armoureven as claws of lightningtore portions of it away.It wastaking every screed of theEmperor's warrior skill andpsychie might to keep themechwarlord's weaponry fromkilling him.3
这一段以第三方视角直言帝皇是用尽一切武艺和灵能才打了个平手,但是我们看接下来的所有片段
Horus felt the build up of colossal psychic energies and shielded his eyes as a furious light built within the Emperor. Power like nothing he had ever seen his father wield, or even suspected he possessed. All consuming, all powerful, it was the power to extinguish life in every sphere of its existence. Physical flesh turned to ash before it and what ancient faiths had once called a soul was burned out of existence, never to cohere again.3
狂暴,无与伦比的灵能力量在帝皇的体内聚成,那力量足以毁灭一切,吞噬万物。灵魂、肉体碾碎成飞灰,生命被从任何层面抹除,永无再存之可能。
Nothing would ever remain of he who suffered such a fate.
Their body and soul would pass from the finite energy of the universe, to fade into memory a have all that they were wiped from the canvas of existence.
This was as complete a death as it was possible to suffer.3
这所谓足以和帝皇匹敌的军阀死了,只稍帝皇一剑(当然这样说可能不够严谨,准确来说应该是帝皇一剑捅入军阀,然后从中灌入灵能鞭尸)灵魂和肉体都被彻底湮灭,存在被抹除,迎来了绝对纯粹的死亡。
That power blazed along the Emperor's sword, filling the greenskin with killing light. It erupted in a bellowing golden explosion, and lightning blazed from the coruscating afterimage of its death, arcing from ork to ork as it sought out all those who were kin to the master of Gorro. Unimaginable energies
poured from the Emperor, reaching throughout the entirety of the chamber and burning every last shred of alien flesh to a mist of drifting golden ash.3
这一击之下外溢的力量粉碎了余下军阀的兽胞,军阀的同族只留下了金色的尘埃。
Horus watched as the power of life and death coursed through the Emperor, saw him swell in stature until he was like unto a god. Wreathed in pellucid amber flames, towering and majestic.
His father never claimed to be a god, and refuted such notions with a vengeance. He had even castigated a son for believing what Horus now saw before him with his very own eyes...
Horus dropped to his knees, overcome with the wonder of what he was witnessing.3
荷鲁斯跪倒在地目瞪口呆的看着这个之前还在与军阀五五开的人间之神施展他永不可想象的伟力
要知道,帝皇在解决了这个“和自己同一水平”的怪物之后还把要爆炸的星球核心拉进亚空间了呢。
这显然是假的,因为根据所有已知情报推测,原体大小的古兽人应该属于发育不良(标准:星际战士大概是2.5m左右,由此推测原体3~5m。当然,通过各种互相矛盾的数据和间接对比原体的身高可以被论证成奥特曼到蓝精灵的各种级别)
The statue was at least ten metres tall, in a square-arched alcove filled with the green light of ork power. Its body was encased in thick layers of plate, intricately wrought and carved with orkish designs. A bull-horned helm with a mock tusked face encased the head. Two claws each the size of a Space Marine rested on the arms of the chair.5
野兽装甲和身高的夸张程度使它刚开始甚至被当成了个大雕像。
power flared and pipes hissed while cables and wires detached from the idol with fountains of emerald sparks. Clanking and whirring, the immense machine rose up from its throne and took a step out of the alcove, twice as tall even as Vulkan.5
在之后的The Last Son of Dorn 与Shadow of Ullanor 中还出现了描述更夸张的其他野兽,同时,它们还有一位统领兽首...
但我要告诉大家的是,这一段只是对古兽人到底有多大多可怕最低程度的论据。
The Emperor fought an armoured giant twice his height and breadth. Its skull was a vast, ironhelmed boulder with elephantine tusks and chisel-like teeth that gleamed dully. Its eyes were coal-red slits of such vicious intelligence that it stole Horus's breath.3
帝皇正在和一头两倍于自己的装甲巨兽战斗。兽人军阀有着一颗岩般的头,巨象似的长牙和凿子般的利齿闪着暗淡的光,它煤红色裂缝般的眼中外射的邪恶与狡诈之光窃走了荷鲁斯的呼吸。
The Emperor was fighting his way through a howling mob of the largest greenskins Horus had ever seen. Most were the equal of a primarch in stature. One even dwarfed the Emperor himself.3
皇帝正在嚎叫的绿潮中奋力前游,这群兽人是荷鲁斯所见过的最强悍的。大多数在身材上与原体相当,其中一个甚至使皇帝本人相形见绌。
Horus left most of the Terminators to hold back the Orks and pushed on up the tower with just ten Space Marines at his side At the pinnacle of the tower they found Urlakk in a grand chamber, accompanied by forty of the biggest Orks in his empire 2
虽然我直接贴了图,但是这过于离谱的一段我认为还是有必要一字一句的翻译一下
荷鲁斯留下了大部分的阿斯特林终结者来抵抗兽人,他只带着十名星际战士向高塔推进。在高塔的顶端,他们发现乌拉克在一个大房间里一一一以及它帝国中四十头最强大的兽人
‘That is the largest ork I’ve ever seen,’ Savona murmured, staring up at a towering, twelve-metre-tall monstrosity that loomed in a nearby nook. ‘And his weaponry…’ The frozen creature wore a crude exoskeleton far in advance of anything the orks now might conceive of. 6
“那是我见过的最大的兽人,”Savona 低声说,抬头凝视着一个附近角落隐约可见的十二米高的巨兽。“还有他的武器……”这个冰冻的生物身着的粗糙外骨骼远远超过如今人类所能想象之极限。

很可惜,我找不到哪本书有说骨叔到底有多高,不过根据上图比例和它在Psychic Awakening: Saga of the Beast与少狼主拉格纳的单挑战绩,我遗憾的得出结论:单论肉体水准的话,我们的碎骨者别说在兽人历史上留名,在像是野兽帝国或者乌兰诺帝国这些古兽人的小小倒映中都排不上号。
但丁要求圣连长Leonatos率领圣血天使部队保护Adeptus Astronomica亚空间站,而他们的对手便是兽人军阀灾星Garshul,在随后一系列的角逐后,Leonatos发现兽人军阀Garshul竟然被恶魔附体,Garshul体的恶魔叫嚣要得到Leonatos的身体,Leonatos最终挫败了恶魔的阴谋。7
你可能在阅读本篇文章中遇到的问题
解答:
乌拉克乌鲁克(Urlakk Urruk)是乌拉克乌尔格(Urlakk Urg)死前的部下,虽然名字很像,但不是一个人。它后来带着它的绿皮逃到了Chondax 星系。在那里,他建立了自己的兽人帝国,并作为其名义上的“霸主”统治,直到它在000.M30 和 007.M31 之间 荷鲁斯叛乱爆发时的Chondax 战役中被白色伤疤摧毁。
?:这里为什么要加上一个问号呢,因为乌拉克乌鲁克(Urlakk Urruk)可能被包含在那40位部下之中也可能不是,也就是说有一头兽左右的误差。
无名军阀起码在肉搏表现上媲美人类帝皇,而它和它的小弟水平都可以算是乌兰诺决战的垫脚石,但包括兽人皇帝本尊的个体战力、乌兰诺的所有部队、兽人帝国的战略战术全部都垫给荷鲁斯了,这是个什么概念?我们就当戈戎星是乌兰诺中的卡塔昌,不考虑乌兰诺母星的杂兵人均西吉斯蒙德,就拿那个兽人的40大天王来说,往差里说,那荷鲁斯也是从一支罗嘉基里曼混编大队中七进七出与剑劈恒星系圣吉列斯一念多元马格努斯并列的三幻神。细心的读者肯定和我一样发现还有除了认可这一段外能自圆其说的说法:戈戎之战和乌兰诺决战没在一本书里出现过啊,那完全可以说是作者互相吃书。然后我为了肯定我这一想法看了看Index Astartes 与THE WOLF OFASH AND FIRE的作者,他们都是Graham McNeill他本人是著名的战锤小说作者,并且就是喜欢写大场面和高表现...
