Dornian Heresy: Dark Angels

A shout out to the Bolter and Chainsword forum who (several weeks ago now!) have published their draft of the alternative history Dark Angels.  The premise behind this one is that Luther won the internal struggle with the Lion and the Dark Angels became traitors. 

What fascinates me about this write up is that the Lion is the only primarch in the series who does not swap sides.  He actually remains loyal, but Luther forever sullies his name and makes him out to be a traitor.  In this version, Luther is the guy who comes to the fore on Caliban and terminates its association with the Imperium of Man. Dorn hears of this ... and offers a way out: joining the heresy ...
