I liked this tale a lot. It had enough elements to be its own entity without apeing 40k overly much. Viktor seemed to at least appear to have some respect for those he had to work with, and even a little time to spare to hear out the enemy before executing them. I appreciate that. Even his spitting on a ratmen corpse felt a lot more restrained than some of the more foamy psychopathic ranting main characters I've seen in fiction.
