I'm not talking about reason so much as capacity. For all Malcador is 'trusted' I would say he is more closely watched than any three of the Emperor's sons combined along with, I'd expect, being tinkered with almost as much as the Custodes.
Primarch Charisma, if Vulkan says it they will go along for it. Also it's the Night Lords the most hated legion because of the cruelty they have is so bad the other legions think they took it to far.

Did that in high school once.
That was a very confusing year...
Oh Perty... no matter what timeline you're still a douche.
FFS if you wanna just build pretty stuff JUST DO IT nobody's going to stop you
Angron: "YOU'LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!"
Kurze: "I don't even know who you are."
Vulkan is a primarch.
Hands off or no, if he says "hey I need your help for an important but secretive mission" how many of them are going to ignore it?

Changing my vote because I love the idea of Angron walking over to Alpharius and being like "Hey sport, I see you've got some Brother Killer rounds there. Want to see if they work?"
[x] Yes
- [x] Suggest tactics and allies: we're Angron. Don't overthink this. Approach Konrad's compound and wreck his shit. Corax will take care of stragglers, intelligence and opsec.
- [x] Approach Alpharius
Still no particular opinion on Malcador.

Sure, but why would he ask that? His current position is that he doesn't do that, and has no intention of starting to do that. That's what his entire talk with Argon was about, that Vulkan has decided to intentionally not lead his sons, so any plan that starts with 'well, Vulkan can lead his sons' is skipping a very important step in getting Vulkan to massively change his opinion (if you want to go that route). Alternatively, if we do want the Salamanders, then we need to approach the Salamander high council or whatever and make our case to them.
The problem is that Vulcan says that but the Salamanders don't necessarily agree

I mean... yes, but how exactly do you expect to convince Vulkan to go back on the way of life he so carefully articulated a few updates back and assume direct control? That's honestly a much tougher sell than to the Salamanders in general.

Yes, if Vulkan asks them. We had a whole establishing character scene about how he doesn't do that. If you want the Salamanders on side as a legion, you have to ask the Salamanders, not Vulkan, because while Vulkan almost certainly could lead them if he asked, that doesn't mean he'll ask!

At the end of the day, I suspect that a vote for approaching Vulkan would effectively be a vote for approaching the Salamanders' council. I doubt that Maugan Ra would throw away people's votes like that, and if approaching Vulkan is a dead end then it will probably be so regardless of whether we phrase our vote as approaching him or approaching his legion.

It would explain why Alpharius is said to be small for a Primarch...
I guess the Dammaz Kron is also 40k canon?

IC it's a terrible idea. OOC it's cool narratively. People who can't stand each other having to begrudgingly work together to stage something is great. It's almost a buddy cop movie except we won't be friends by the end.
[X] Yes
- [X] Approach the Sigillite
- [X] Approach Alpharius
It is a continuation of the fight between the two hands of the emperor after all, and while the power armored one decided to say no, the other might do it as noted by others so far.
We will create waves with horus anyway so it is just the question of how effective we will be, and how high the wave.
I also want the Hydra because of the double trainwreck.
To be fair, Malcador feels also like he would bring a the no name space marine, that is in truth young man omegon considering their shared covert ops interactions beforehand.

Why would I do that?
The vote is to approach Vulkan, so you'll approach Vulkan.
How many Salamanders Vulkan brings along, or if he even brings any at all, is going to be out of your control.

What do you mean i am not a real cowboy?
Alpharius being a dawi and keeping a book of grudges wasnt somethinf my mental image had but it is hilarious nonetheless.
Just him recording every grudge, slight or petty insult/jab towards him as he plan to settle it one day.

Yeah, like, as a QM you want to take a good-faith interpretation of votes, but, again, and I can't stress this enough, we just had that establishing character scene of how Vulkan != the XVIIIth Legion.
It wouldn't be useless! Vulkan and his personal adventuring buddies would be pretty handy for dealing with Konrad himself, and he can act as a witness to our story! If for some unfathomable reason somebody decided to actually kick up a fuss over The Flaying Pits Guy getting shanked, Vulkan's corroborating testimony would be handy! But if you want the Salamnders on board, you have to ask them, not Vulkan.

TBF, the Emperor and Malcador do sometimes come across as a bit of a couple.
Just a really messed up and twisted one.
