@Callum - you might be on to something there, it makes sense to me. I thought though, that the reason he is on the throne is the astronomican signal and holding back the 'tear' in the warp on Terra. When this occurred he placed Malcador on the throne but he was no where near powerful enough so was drained and killed, so now the Emperor 'needs' to be on the throne as there is no other known way, or person who could do the things that the throne allows them to.

So his warp presence might be the same as before if he regened as you say, but wouldn't he still need to find a way to allow the Golden Throne  to do its job withoput him on it?

Anything is possible in 40k but it seems to me that this would be the case, thoughts?
