Primarch who would like being in warhammer fantasy the most and Primarch who would dislike being in warhammer fantasy the most?
I’m assuming you mean that they suddenly ended up there, and not that they were born there. Because the latter would make the entire hypothetical irrelevant.
Magnus would be fascinated by the function of magic and the sheer breadth of new things to learn and study. Also, I think the light college would have him giddy with excitement. So, I think he’d like it the most.
Least? Not sure. I could see a lot of them feeling like it was an annoyance at best to be on Mallus. The thing is that they’d all acclimate in one way or another, because that’s kinda what they do. I suppose it’s possible all the latent aether would make Angron’s nails act up even more than usual. That plus all the slavery would likely upset him. That said, dropping an irate Angron off at Naggarond would be extremely funny.

I got a thing, and it is a Great Thing. A limited edition leather wrapped illustrated canvas map of the territory of the White Scars’ campaign against the Death Guard and the fight for the palace in Warhawk.
My present to myself, courtesy of eBay. Really gotta paint my White Scars so I can take this out during a battle and look like I’m having Thoughts about Strategy.

"He asked then what no other primarch had given voice to. Even Angron, upon his discovery, would act without asking the question Sanguinius now asked.
‘What if I refuse?’
The Emperor seemed to weigh this. ‘You will not refuse. I know your soul. Here, you’ve saved tens of thousands of lives. With me, you will save billions of lives on millions of worlds. You will save the life of every human yet to be born. That is not something you could turn your back on.’
They stared into each other’s eyes, father and son, creator and created. Neither argued against the truth of the Emperor’s words."
Alternatively titled "Sanguinius can see the fuckin future and it didn't take much to get him on E's side."

when you think about it combining thousands of supersoldiers literally incapable of fear with a strictly atheist, rational regime was a colossally stupid decision, and not for the reasons you're thinking of
y'know those cheesy old horror movies where the protagonists are spectacularly stupid? like, they find a spoopy book bound in suspicious leather and go, "haha lets read from this WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG" and twenty minutes later they're being chased by demon minotaurs or something. and the whole time you're screaming "NO YOU FUCKING MORONS WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT WAIT WHY ARE YOU GETTING UNDRESSED NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO HAVE SEX" and then the demon minotaurs kill them while they're having loud passionate sex because god forbid horny teenagers should ever have fun. ok so hear me out, astartes and primarchs in the pre-heresy are the same as the dumbass teenagers, except for the sex-having part (i think they T-pose at each other instead)
think about it. THEY KNOW NO FEAR. they're missing one of the key instincts we possess for recognizing dangerous situations. most people who find a spoopy book bound in suspicious leather are gonna be, y'know, spooped spooked. they won't want anything to do with it. the more anxious/scared will straight up leave. but astartes literally can't get spooked! they might burn the book for being xenos filth or something but beyond that there's nothing to balance out natural curiosity and/or lust for war trophies.
and this combines really badly with the imperium's rationalism! see, even if you don't fear the spoopy book, superstition/religion/fairy tales/etc. still provide a powerful incentive to stay away from it. you're gonna look at it and go, wow, that book looks satanic, messing with it might summon demon minotaurs, i should stay away. but the imperium actively discourages that line of thought! there's no way the spoopy book can do any harm, it's just a spoopy looking book! in fact, you SHOULD read the spoopy book just to demonstrate how not-superstitious you are!
yeah so this is why fulgrim walks into a creepy temple full of ritual snake orgy and thinks, hmm that snazzy sword the snake guys are obsessively fucking around would make a nice trophy. or why it never occurs to magnus that making deals with the fair folk might be dangerous territory.

Today. 👏🏻
We I give an answer to a question you never asked.
Tumblr media
And no I don't mean the minis. I mean the actual armor. If it was real, how much would it approximately cost to paint?
So first things first. Lets explain our variables.
Tumblr media
(The board bas been censored to avoid spoilers)
We have on the first column the name of each primarch.
The second we have how much 1kg of pigment costs. Note that each Primarch has a different pigment thus different cost.
Third is the 1.5 kg. With the power of math I concluded that each primarch would need 1.5kg of pigment to have their armor painted. (We will assume that all primarchs armors will have the same sqft of surface that needs to be coated).
Forth is the fixed cost. That is the general cost for supplies, coat, varnish etc. Again we will assume that this cost is the same for everyone because I like being sane.
And finally we have the total cost. We add the add the 1.5 kg cost with the fixed cost.
Tumblr media
Corvus / 3048,075 €
Russ / 3066,945 €
Fulgrim / 3202,605 €
Perturabo / 3211,875 €
Magnus / 3251.85 €
Perturabo's armor paintjob costs a lot more than Fulgrim's. So that's that.
Tumblr media
Vulkan / 3309,04 €
Omegon / 3310,71 €
Konrad / 3334,8 €
Lorgar / 3398,34 €
It's not a huge bump in cost. Still very much rational. It's just the paintjob right? They have to redo it all the time.
Right?
Tumblr media
Alpharius / 3405,21 €
Ferrus / 3410,715 €
Mortarion / 3410,715 €
Horus / 3461,535 €
Lion / 3674,73 €
Angron / 3741,75 €
Sanguinius / 3957,39 €
So far the numbers are pretty tame. Except angel boy who was so close to breaking the 4k mark.
But...
We are missing two people here...
Tumblr media
On the number 2 of the most expensive armor paintjob we have...
A round of applause please.
Roboute / 45091,5 €
No. You saw correctly. The lord of Ultramar needs to spend 45k to paint his armor.
Where did that number come from?
Fun fact.
The original ultramarine was lapis lazuli. The precious gemstone. And let me tell you something about lapiz pigment...
Tumblr media
It's expensive. 💸💸💸
But let's not wait any further.
On number one we have...
Dorn / 95346 €
Yes.
95k just to paint his armor.
My man...
My myth...
My legend...
Every time he goes to a crusade one planet's taxes need to be spent just for his armor to stay nice and painted.
Tumblr media
The lesson of this long ass post?
There is none, besides
Dorn and Guilliman are two high maintenance fatherlovers.

maybe it's the furry in me but I love the comedy of Primachs having mild animal instincts bc Big E was a lil to creative with DNA in the gene lab
Leman and the Lion carrying their Astartes by the scruff of the neck and moving them around in the middle of the night because they heard a noise and got frightened
Sanguinius going broody and sitting on top of Blood Angels, sleeping in a nest lined with his own plucked down feathers
Corax stealing particularly shiny items and generally being a nuisance around the palace bc there is so much fucking gold
Vulkan temperature regulating by lying in volcanic craters
