Exactly! Well, said Vaughn and Novajester. Some people just don't get it.

The return of a primarch in the 42nd would be so cool, and just like you say Vaughn, any of them would most likely be disgusted by the state of the Imperium, the High Lords and the Ecclesiarchy. Then it gets you thinking how each one would react, but any of them would make a great story.

Russ for instance, would more than likely try to grab as much of his legion as he could and would be potentially, pretty much opposed to the Imperium in its current state. Guilliman though would no doubt try to prevent any infighting and would use his masterful diplomacy to somehow get the Lords on side and perhaps deal with the fact all of humanity now worships the Emperor along the way whilst trying to find his other brothers.

As far as the 'what could equal a Primarch' debate, I think its pretty clear to all but one of us here that there are several existing candidates, and as someone else said, the potential for even more if there was a new Tau or Necron introduced, which wouldn't really be a problem if it was required.
