Does Astelan go into when the destruction if Caliban occurred?

There are quite a few sources that suggest that Caliban was destroyed after the Heresy the climax of the Heresy, being the death of Horus. As the Lion arrived with the Space Wolves and performed a mop up of the Traitors that were still on Terra.

He then returns home and that's when those loyal to Luthor attack the Lions fleet. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4839356.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4839356.page GMT knowledge of the Fallen

Astlan claimed that what with the Lion being a strategic mastermind there was no way that the ENTIRE Legion would have been unable to help during the Heresy and that, while not being a heretic per say, he was waiting to see who won the war before throwing in his support. Luther and the Lion are both confirmed to be still alive, although ones nuts and the others comatose, on the Rock.

Ah yes, that's it. The Lion being a fence sitter theory.

I forgot about this notion as it doesn't look that way in the Heresy series at the moment. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4840019.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4840019.page GMT knowledge of the Fallen
After discovering Luthers nearly traitorous act he banished him from the crusade with 500 warriors, mostly from Caliban, under the pretence of being a training cadre to speed up recruitment.

The Lion knew that Caliban at some point would be purged when the taint was finally discovered and so had sent his closest brother to die.

When The Lion attacked that forge world under the pretence of saving it what he really was doing was securing a bargaining chip for Horus chip and setting up his alibi for the loyalists - I would have got there sooner but I was doing this and was delayed.

AFAIK that's largely correct., although Horus' death was triggered by the imminent arrival of the Wolves and Dark Angels together. So in a way, no matter how quickly the two made their way there, they would always be too late to stop the events on Horus' barge.
Interesting twist - if Astelan is correct about the Lion being a fence-sitter, then so is Russ; the two were making their way to lift the siege on Terra together...
Given how loyal Russ apparently was (afterwards, he bared his chest to a stab through the heart from the Lion in his grief), that seems unlikely, though some of his other points concerning the Great Crusade and other events of that time (and how the Imperium has drifted away from the Emp's vision) were definitely intriguing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4841654.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4841654.page GMT knowledge of the Fallen

And also..
Spoiler:
Rogal Dorn was also a bit 'shaky' if Shadows of Treachery is anything to go by. There is a bit where he is pondering on the what could have possibly turned Horus. He was deeply troubled by this, not because he thought that Horus was a stark raving nutter or even that he'd turned but rather that he was worried that if he knew the reason for his betrayal that he would agree with him.

But they didn't actively turn against their fellow legions but are caused by a flaw in the gene-seed, unlike the alleged incidents against the dark angels]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4875990.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/480421/4875990.page GMT Re:knowledge of the Fallen
