yeah, that's why i think if the assasination was successful it would be maybe an 80% chance the heresy wouldn't reach terra.

if they managed to not kill each other and reached a consensus on who the ruling primarch would be, and if it ended up being perturabo, then i think the imperium would've seen the actual death of earth and emps. very slim odds on the primarchs not killing each other though, considering a large part of horus becoming warmaster was his ability to use people, and their respective forces, to the best of their abilities.
