Karl franz lexicanum12/3/2023 ![]() Perhaps that's simply symptomatic of a problem with a lot of GW Army Books/Codices, that is, tailoring it primarily towards a small part of the greater faction (AKA Codex: Space Marines being Codex: Ultramarines, or The Vampires Army Book essentially being 'The Von Carsteins') I'd have thought that the system through which the Emperor is selected would spawn some disdain or at least apathy toward Franz, but it seems like every Warrior, every War Altar and every Steam Tank is proud to plaster KARL FRANZ all over themselves. What gives? For such a fractured state, the Empire seems to have a whole bunch of loyalty/love for him. But nope, Karl Franz is a supa-dupa warrior, ultimate statesman, genius and athlete with no character flaws whatsoever. I find that it is easiest to emphasise with a character or at least find them cool if they are somewhat *flawed*, if they ever encounter adversity. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if random Warriors of Chaos were heard to remark 'For an unbeliever, he sure is one helluva guy'. He seems to enjoy the affections and love of EVERYONE. It doesn't seem as if (according to Lexicanum or the Army Book) that the guy has ever made a mistake ever. The guy is so Mary Sue(ish) in his perfectness. And I have to say that Karl Franz irks me a tad. and part of that process was (naturally) reading the Empire Army Book.
