Glad this is still provoking discussion, now in its third thread!

@74 - I would have to agree with Vaughn, I think that Vulkan would of course make a great figurehead for the Imperium if he returned but the last thing he would want or allow would be a shift in religion. Think how disgusted he would be to find the entire Imperium worshipping the Emperor in the first place.

@Vaughn - what makes you think Dorn would be in line for a return? From what I understood, he is one of the most likely to be dead, although I agree, he would be up there with Guilliman for being one of the best Primarchs (potentially) for the good of the Imperium if he were to return.

On the ongoing Lion discussion, who would be the first and most likely Primarch to return is highly debatable. The reason I think the Lion is potentially the most likely is this - unlike Vulkan, Russ, Corax and Khan, his location is known, albeit only to the Emperor and watchers - unlike Guilliman we do not know the full extent and nature of his injuries. While its agonizing to have Guilliman so close to being present and accounted for, I think it would take some unknown technology or power from the warp to cure him, but the same cannot be said for the Lion, for all we know, all the watchers or Emperor have to do is wake him up.
