I Personally don't ever see it ending....

The Emperor will die that I have no doubt and with him the Imperium as we know it. Maybe the handfull of loyal Primarchs come back and salvage something from the wreckage of thier fathers Kingdom but even that's doubtfull. All the great Primarch's who could lead the Imperium are dead or dieing.Unless any of u see Russ taking on the mantle... One of the galaxy's super powers is about to be taken out of the chess game and with comes a huge power vacuum

With the death of the Imperium I see choas taking the opertunity to launch another black crusade and wreaking some serious havoc. But let's not forget the other players the Tyrinads will more than likey also take to devour worlds and spread like the unholy plague they are. Necrons will likey keep doing what ever it is there doing don't really know there goals other than the death of everything.

I imagine many human world will be taken in by the Tau to create a human alien alliance and help fill the power void. I would many of the successor chapters will either A rush to the defense of the dieing imperium or B not give two shits about a people they literally have know common goals with.

I see the Blood Angels, Salmanders, Ultramarines, and Space Wolves if not creating a new empire together then ones sepperately. Hell the Blood Angels and Ultramarines already have micro Empires and they both a have strong pull with there successors. Salmanders are the great humanitarians of the lot so perservation of even a part of the Imperium makes the most since. Many of u know the wolves have had a long history of working with Angels and Ultra.

You'll notice i left out the Dark Angels, Revan Guard, White Scars, Iron Hands and Imperial Fist. The Dark Angels care nothing for the Imperium only there damnedable quest. Iron Hands will more than likey rush to the behest of there Martian ally's dropping pretence there allied with anyone else. The Imperial FIst will rush back to earth do defend the birth place of the Imperium. Raven Guard and White Scars are on the fence can't get a read on them.

So in short i believe the Galaxy will change the end of the Imperium is forgone conclusion but I don't believe it will be the end but i do where in for one wild ride
