A pre-Horus Heresy confrontation involving Leman Russ turns a personal fight into a lesson about the wider battlefield. One Primarch becomes so angry and absorbed in the duel that he fails to notice the opposing legion surrounding him. Even victory in the individual fight would leave him trapped by that force. Personal combat success offers little protection when the rest of the battlefield has gone unnoticed.
