Dorn is dead
Vulkan has buggered off and is unconfirmed
Lion is asleep
Guiliman is as good as dead
Russ is in the EoT
Corax is in the EoT
Ferrus is dead
Sanguinious is dead
Khan is lost in the webway
The traitor ones are either dead or daemon primarchs though Alpharius (and/or Omegon) isn't a daemon primarch and is tentatively confirmed dead though even the Ultramarines at the time aren't really sure.

Of the other 2 they were sanctioned by the Emperor supposedly by Russ' Legion though that is uncomnfirmed.
Nothing is known of them and all records at the have been deleted.

There was a thread on this not long ago that should explain things for you, as could a simple look on Lexicanum:

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/360457.page


Also, if you could work on your spelling and grammar, that'd be great and you'd be much more likely to receive responses .
E.g. Primearchs = Primarchs. Were = Where. terned = Turned. Loylests = Loyalists. Servrel disserpeard = Several disappeared. Explostion = Explosion. Karn = Khan. Gullian = Gulliman. Stases = Stasis. impiral palace = Imperial Palace.

one of the Alpha legion's primarchs was killed. the other is still alive.

the identity of the living one isn't known.

Khan is rumored to be a prisoner of Vects.

...urrrr... I dunno

I'm having a hard time figuring out what you've written, but okay...
Most of the loyalists are dead or missing in action, though some of those are presumed killed.
The Traitor primarchs are mostly Daemons now, such as Angron, Mortarion and Peturabo, or dead, like the Night Haunter and one of the Alpharius/Omegon pair.
The last two are deliberately ambiguous. They're GW's way of allowing for homebrew fluff.

I wasn't entirely sure on Khan and Alpharius/Omegon...
Khan has so little written about his fate and Alpharius and his twin are mysterious by dint of them being Alpha Legionaires...

There's no proof that one of the Alpha Legion primarchs is killed. It's only claimed by the Space Marines, who cannot confirm the kill, were unsure themselves and are biased. There's also apparently been lots of sightings of Alpharius (whom was supposedly killed) since. The whole idea behind the Alpha Legion is deception and intelligence and as such we don't know if one of their Primarchs is dead or not and frankly, I'd bet not.

it's most likely Alpharus was killed, although there is reasonable doubt.

primarch sightings could be due to Omegon still being alive(or Omegon could have been the one who was killed)

Alpha legion lott - Yeah. If you've read legion then you know that they both could be alive, or either one could be alive posing as the other when it suits. but this would be to no effect...or would it...who knows the minds of those twisted buy chaos

Dorn is dead.
Dead as a dead thing that was killed to death by an axe murder who used another axe murderer to kill it.
They have both his hands AND his body.
They separated them for some reason...
It's actually kinda creepy once you think about it...
Vulkan disappeared after the Heresy was over...
Plenty of chapters have a belief their primarch will come back for the final battle...
White Scars have the final hunt, Space Wolves have Wolftime...

Also please improve your spelling and grammar.
Across a primarily text based medium it is important to spell things correctly to ensure people understand you.

Vulkan was never listed as MIA. He definitely survived the Istvaan massacres and continued to lead the remnants of his legion in a guerrilla war until relief came. He then spent the rest of the HH trying to rebuild his legion. After the HH and the Great Scouring, he left for the EoT.

The Lion was found by loyalist DA at the end of the battle of Caliban, mortally wounded, with Luther crying at his side. Luther was captured and the Lion was put in stasis, in the deepest chamber of the Rock.

stonned_astartes wrote:dorn- only found his hand. so could be about


Dorn's entire body was recovered. His skeleton is kept on the Phalanx, embedded in amber shaped after his original body. His hands are kept in a separate place, and are held as the most precious relics of the imperial fists chapter.

EDIT: Sorry, purple. Your post came while I was writing mine.

"How many more worlds do we sacrifice? How many more millions or billions do we betray before we turn and fight?" - attributed to Captain Leoten Semper of Battlefleet Gothic - Gothic War, the evacuation of Belatis.

If commanding a Titan is a measure of true power, then commanding a warship is like having one foot on the Golden Throne - Navy saying.

Yeah but considering it is entirely possible he was also a traitor you may not hold that attitude for much longer...

None but Sanguinious and Horus died in the siege of Terra.
Dorn was killed boarding a chaos battleship single handedly.
Most of the primarchs are either dead or turned into daemon primarchs.
Only 3 are confirmed unaccounted for.
Alpharius/Omegon may be alive or only 1 may be alive...
