Actually, I read a really cool story about something like that. It was very well written even. Basically it said that Horus had changed armor and whatnot with the Emperor so that it is actually Horus on the Golden Throne. It was explained that he was the closest clone to the Emperor so looked the part....

I liked it, even though I seriously doubt that GW would ever make it true...

one I've just found out (yup, am sad) ... the forerunner of the much vaunted assault cannon of the weaklings is actually the Reaper - so yet again another Imperial 'iconic' weapon comes from Chaos :lol:

GW won't ever make any of this true, they won't go on in time, and all the 'if-you-take-your-place-in-the-armageddon-or-EOT-campaign-you'll-be-able-to-change-the-future-of-the-universe' bullshit is just propaganda as well to get the peoiple to buy more stuff and whatever... Nothing will ever change, unless GW really wants it.

Now that's not completely true.. it's like with combibolters.. chaos just haven't got the latest stuff, Regular SMs stopped using combibolters and Reapers when the new versions (storm bolter and assault cannon) were released:)

now i'd take a reaper any day:)

Well that only stands to reason. After all, if GW took the storyline too far then we would either have a galaxy ruled by one faction or every model in their lines would be made obsolete all at once and they would lose too many customers. It is in GW's, and ours too, best interest to leave the storyline hanging as is with little change.

there have been some plot changes, a lot of the Black Library books have reflected the changes from the campaigns etc
