Who do you want to turn up next and why? You know it’s going to happen, if only for the money. Personally, I vote for Corax, as the Raven Guard seem to me to be under represented. Thoughts?

They've been not so subtly hinting at the Lion returning. I would like for them to finally get on that.

Russ is probably the next loyalist up, its the only reasonin my wind why the star woof codex hasn't been released. (also expect new successor chapters) .


That said I want Dorn because I think his model would be cool.

My hope is for Dorn just because I like the Imperial Fists. I mean, come on, we all know a primarch wouldn't have such an anticlimactic death as getting zerg rushed.

'Apparently' Trazyn has a perfect version of fulgrim with no memory of the heresy, a double fulgrim release would be pretty good and could fit into the canon of cawl having back up emperor's children somewhere. Take this with a large grain of salt though.

Trazyn also has Vulkan on ice apparently.


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Every DA TT Player is sitting here with fingers crossed it is the Lion to give our codex a nice boost in confidence.

But it will probably head over to the wolves since their codex might be coming in right away with the Thousand Sons also rumored to be around the corner

I expect it'll be Russ, but that's mostly because he's the only one whose Legion doesn't have an 8e book yet.

Yeah, that's pretty likely. I've heard he's not supposed to return until the 40k version of Ragnarok though? Not like GW can't retcon that, but anyway...

OP asked who we wanted, not who was most likely. I'd say Russ is more likely, but Khan would be cooler.

Dorn is dead and he got the inglorious death he deserved, as Curze forsaw.

Only his hand was found in the 'new' lore if I'm remembering correctly.

Since we're just wishlisting, I want Fabius Bile to make another Ferrus Manus clone that Fulgrim can't turn so it can get mortally wounded, saved, and interred within a dreadnought.

But yeah, the Lion is the most fluffy choice right now as far as I can tell.

He doesn't though (maybe).

We know for certain he has a cloned version of Fulgrim and only agreed to take him as up until that point he had never had a Primarch in his collection before. Now, we don't know how close to the present timeline these events take place (all we know is it happened post m34, which is when the events of the first book took place) so he could have added Vulkan in the meantime. However it is left very open-ended. To me, this "giant in baroque armour" could be anything, for example Trazyn has a Krork in his collection which is stated to stand at "12 metres tall in a crude exoskeleton". To me, that fits the description too.

Yep...

I went and looked after this.

This is what I get for not looking to hard into release dates.

At least my favorite heretics have a codex now!

I couldn't say. If it was then that's interesting. I was just saying that the aforementioned giant was (maybe) not Vulkan as everyone thinks as Clonelord presented several options for what ti could be, including maybe one of the lost Primarchs who (according to (Daemon) Fulgrim) went missing around the Ymga Monolith, which is near Solemnace.

I really do like the idea of Fulgrim coming back, whether it’s supporting the Imperium or fighting against them and chaos. It’d be really interesting to see how Guiliman reacts, the Imperium too but that’d depend on how much information the individual has. In terms of history there’s the whole “I put you in stasis” thing besides the whole HH, but beyond that is Fulgrims personality. A non corrupted Fulgrim I think has a good chance at rivaling Guiliman in politics, which is something most of the other loyalist Primarchs don’t have. The Lion is the closest one currently but at the same time his aloof and cold attitude turns people off. It’d be a good way of rocking the boat without actually losing a chaos Primarch.

For that matter does M34 mean the 34th millennia as in the the m33 years (like how 20th century are the 1900s) or does it mean the m34 years? If it means the m33 years then perhaps Clone Fulgrim was the false Primarch?

If it follows real-life logic, then, as the years 1*-1000 were M1, M34 should be the years 33001-34000.

It's probably gonna be Russ. Lore-destroying or not I'd love it to be Ferrus Manus piloting the Imperium's biggest dreadnought, because who doesn't want a huge fething dreadnought?

If it will be Russ, it will be also interesting how he will manage the Fenris issue: his home is no longer.

M34 does indeed mean the 34th millennium, which is when the events of the first Fabius Bile book (Primogenitor) took place as the invasion of Lugganath by a psychically shielded EC fleet mentioned in the CSM codex (the plot of the above book) takes place in m34.

So we know by deduction that Trazyn's acquisition of Fulgrim happens some point after this in realspace. We know that about a century has passed in eyespace but no date is given for how long happens in realtime between Lugganath and this.

Based on which codices are left, it's got pigtails and is called Leman Russ.

Alternatively, I think the Lion, seen as Luther has gone for a gander.
