@ aldaron, i mentioned hand-to-hand just because they're primarchs and none of them needs a weapon to be lethal, and fights could be drastically different with or without weapons :)

angron was indeed a gladiator for decades but in all that time he never fought an astartes, never mind a primarch. he's still a primarch though so his skills, hand-to-hand or armed, are unmatchable by anyone below primarch status. but compared to his brethren, fulgrim being one of the top 2 (sanguinius being the only one better?) in terms of swordsmanship, his blade-skill will be found lacking, which is why i think fulgrim would make a fool of him in a sword/axe fight. but in a hand-to-hand duel i think fulgrim would desperately need to avoid getting into a ground-and-pound since angron would make a fine paste of him if he gets hold of him :)  regardless of armed or not though it would be a legendary fight... actually, any primarch vs primarch bout would be legendary :)

and i'll definitely place a bet on the alpharius vs omegon match: omegon to win (who is recognisable as 'the pretty one' :P), but as alpharius goes down so too does omegon since they share a single soul, and it ends up a tko draw :P
