:Well it's only the same as it has always been ^^. Basically I am quite convinced that we will never get to know anything on this topic :D --[[User:Inquisitor S.|Inquisitor S.]] 22:35, 12 February 2007 (CET)
::Hmmm... Beware, these unholy discussions are the beginning of Heresy, brother Inquisitor. :) I still don't buy it. They didn't fell to Chaos and they didn't fight against the traitors. What happened to them: the two Primarchs and the two '''legions'''? I mean we are talking more or less about '''20,000''' Space Marines here. I looked at Google and this seems to be quite a "hot" topic. Games Workshop simply likes to leave such questions unanswered, it provides material for endless discussions (who will never find the true story as GW sees no reason to answer), simply helps to sell background books and novels, and keeps the interest interrest of older fans. A similar case is: "The story and stats of Arhra, the original and fallen Striking Scorpion, who is only reported to have joined Slaanesh". Never saw his full story anywhere except very brief mentions.
::My personal conspiracy theories?
::1)The two Primarchs were never found, their legions fought initially at the Great crusade but on the long term they couldn't survive without whithout them, slowly dying one by one, until noone was left and they were simply forgotten - they simply died, no need to keep records. ::2)They were indeed found and lead their legions during the Great Crusade, but ''so far away'' that with the events of the Horus Heresy they were simply unable to return (I suppose that the "light" of the Holy Beacon was quite reduced at the end of the civil war). The Primarchs could probably have returned but they would have to abandon their legions and they would have never betray their own ''band of brothers''. In my opinion opinon this or something similar is the most probable answer. ''Too away to return, contact impossible or not wanted any more''.::3)They ''simply deserted with their legions'' during/at the end of the war, and erased themselves from all Imperial records and fled far, far away (again beyond the reach of the beacon). They might have deduced/predicted how religious/fanatical the Imperium was going to become. Perhaps their homeworld/backgr--[[User:AE The T|AE The T]] 08:12, 22 March 2011 (CET)ound backgound or their understanding of the Emperor's vision (HE didn't want to be worshiped as a god, at the least initially) left them no other choice. We will never know, at least until GW decides to gain some bucks selling the story.
::If you want we can improve the text into a: "Nothing is known about the two unknown Primarchs and their respective legions." + "Primarch" Rubineck. Probably it is better this way. [[User:Irulan|Irulan]] 23:28, 12 February 2007 (CET)
:Not necessarily. Indeed on page 94 (ish) of Collected Visions it does say that Magnus would be removed from records, but it doesn't mean that the other two legions did the same thing, they could have been removed for very different reasons (being destroyed for example...).--[[User:Jonru|Jonru]] 10:10, 27 July 2007 (CEST)
 
Could they have been secret legions that continue to work and act in complete secrecy attempting to complete a grand scheme set to them by the Emperor. Finding a weapon to destroy Chaos for example, or an expidition to another Galaxy?--[[User:AE The T|AE The T]] 08:12, 22 March 2011 (CET)
