I've thought awhile about collecting Primaris, and the top chapter that I've been thinking of painting them as are the Astral Knights. As the Astral Knights were almost completely destroyed (in an awesome way), how would a refounding go about? Would it just be Primaris? Would there be Sable Swords thrown in to show them the ropes? What about the surviving Scouts and Veterans? Would some remaining in the Deathwatch come to help out?

they'd almost certainly be pure Primaris. but your ideas of surviving scouts, death watch members etc are certainly a good way to slide in some non-Primaris if you choose to do so

I believe the few remaining Astral Knights went on an essentially suicide crusade. By the end they were down to a Dreadnought and 30 Marines/Scouts. They went off into the stars to find a good death. They could still be around but chances are they found a good death.
