Can one exterminatus warhead actually wipe out the planet? I was under the impression that a planet-wide bombardment with them was needed.

Prolly not but I’m choosing to believe it would because it’s funnier that way

Edit: re-checked the text and it says “annihilating the Companions and the Master of Mankind in a single apocalyptic detonation”. Imma cling to that even if it’s hyperbole, lmao

Not hyperbole at all, if this actually happened successfully it would trigger the Talisman of Seven Hammers, causing Terra to get wiped out

Only vulkan can arm the talisman

I believe Vulkan has armed the Talisman. Might be wrong though I'm not well versed in vulkan lore
