He received stats in the third Horus Heresy book, showing him to be a close-combat monster:

With Eternal Warrior, Fearless, Adamantium Will, a +2S AP2 weapon, instant death and re-rolls ones to hit when in challenges, 4 attacks at WS7, '''and''' forcing successful invulns to be re-rolled, he's the nastiest duelist character so far in virtually any incarnation of the rules, barring the Primarchs, Constantin Valdor, motherfucking [[Anacharis Scoria]] and the [[Shield-Captain|Cheestodes Tribune]]. He's also one of the few that has [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aw4IOOQj7Qo a fighting chance against some of the weaker among said Primarchs]. Now that some Legions, namely Sons of Horus, Salamanders, and Imperial Fists, have access to Eternal Warrior from relics that non-Primarchs can take, he's descended from being an "I win as soon as I wound" button to merely "75% likely to win." Aside from all that, he allows you to take Templar Brethren as troops, gives any unit he joins +1I on the charge and rerolls to charges and Sweeping Advance, and if taken as the warlord has a fixed trait that gives +1VP and +1CR to his entire army if he kills the enemy warlord in a challenge.

This still means pretty much all Legion characters barring Salamander Praetors and Eidolon are fucked as Sigismund is forced to challenge and most Legions have nothing, bar their Primarchs, who could stand up to Sigismund and hope to win (excluding terrible rolls).

In fact, even against his [[Rogal Dorn|own Primarch]] (or any T6, 4++ Primarch barring Lorgar and Russ), Sigismund makes a good stab at it and causes just under 1 wound per turn mathematically during a challenge (what with IWND and all), which hilariously, is almost as much as [[Perturabo|Dorn's ''own'' brother]] can cause against him. While Sigismund receives 1.25 wounds/turn in return. Which is actually pretty good for Astartes vs Primarch combat. As of the fourth book in the Siege of Terra series, we even have fluff to back this up, as Sigismund was able to get in a few shots against Fulgrim before the Phoenician started beating him down.
