Before or after the Horus Heresy?
On another note, I noticed an interesting several things lately while re-reading Horus Rising and this lexicanum page. The "Emperor" of 63-19 was in fact invisible. He lead a whole culture as well as having near super-natural powers. He had raised a whole force that were in fact similar to astartes save the actual astartes part. Is it not possible that he was a primarch, however not noticed due to the lack of the Emperor in the crusade. Could his narcissism thinking himself as the true ruler of mankind in fact been "...warnings that no one heeded." If not, how is it he fits all the criteria? --[[User: Th3malleus|Th3malleus]] 18:26, 14 October 2008 (PST)
===Before or after the Horus Heresy===
The article currently states "There are conflicting reports as to whether the two unknown Legions met their fate prior to or after the Horus Heresy and which side they joined in the Heresy, if they participated in it.[5][9]". With those sources being to entire novels, so not exactly useful ones.
From a little asking around, it seems like the timeline used to be "mostly mysterious, but hints that they might be traitor legions during the HH", which has been entirely retconned to "still mostly mysterious, but very clearly happened before the HH".
While I don't have the right sources at hand to really confirm this, it seems possible that the part of the article I quoted is quite misleading. A retcon is not "conflicting reports", surely? If newer source materials still have accounts of the legions disappearing possible happening during or after the HH, that would be great to know though.
