I want to see F ulgrim or  Perturabo die. No banishment. Actually die. I think how this happens is also important for the continuation of the warhammer series. I think it needs to be a regualr battle and regualr people find a way to do it. At great cost, using some ancient machine, help from xenos, whatever. I do not care what they come up with, but if a demon prince traitor primarch can be actually killed and by someone other than the Emperor, it will open a lot of doors.

A big pet peeve for me is when a series doesn't know how to write good stories and they just rely on a bad guy being invincible to create the tnesion. (Kind of like Star Trek's Borg back durring TNG era, or the Ori in Stargate.) A series is much more interesting when the enemies are not invincible, the machines in Dune's prequil trillogy is a good example. Brilliant strategy to defeat an opponent of supperior strength makes for great reading, but a eus ex machina twist that defeats the invincible bad guys fast sucks.

To prevent Warhammer from being cheap, I think they should kill off a traitor. I think this would have more impact then bringing back a loyal primarch.
