====If Dorn Died during M32====
*During At no point during the [[War of the Beast]] is Rogal Dorn spoken of by the Imperial Fists as though he were alive and in command of the Imperial Fists.{{Fn|8}} During that war, Vulkan commended [[Koorland]] that his actions honoured Rogal Dorn and that he "will tell him so."{{fn|8}} If Dorn's Death was indeed the [[2nd Black Crusade]] the Imperial Fists should not yet have had possession of his hand.{{fn|41}} This is further corroborated by there being no mention at all of Dorn's Hand throughout the War of the Beast novels, nor considered by Koorland to Vulkan's words.
**It is feasible that Rogal Dorn, like Vulkan himself, vanished from Imperial public sight shortly after Corax and the [[Great Scouring]], remaining in hiding and only surfacing to lead the attack on the unspecified Black Crusade.{{Fn|8}} With the War of the Beast ending in 546.[[M32]]{{fn|52}}, the next closest Black Crusade to occur after it would be the [[2nd Black Crusade]] in 597.[[M32]], approximately 50 years later.{{Fn|41}} The 2nd Black Crusade was the only one which occurred in [[M32]] and did involve an attack through the Cadian Gate. However, in conflict with the account of Index Astartes II, it also involved an attack on Cadia.
