Of my timeline? Sure, although most of this is from my notes, not the article. Basically, everything goes normally, up to the point where the Emperor tells the Word Bearers to stop worshipping him and that nonsense. Then, instead of turning to Chaos, Lorgar drops his religious ideas and becomes more or less like Guilliman. The Great Crusade continues until the Orks are driven to extinction, the Eldar are hiding somewhere in the webway, and the Tau have basically an isolated reserve. The tyranids show up, of course, but the still growing legions set up a blockade to hold them off (mainly the Space Wolves, Imperial Fists, White Scars, and Ultramarines). What I'd planned to do next was have something happen where Chaos forces enter that dimension from the original, and convert different legions to their cause. So rather than the traitor legions being traitors, it would be, for example, Blood Angels, Raven Guard, and Salamanders. A new heresy would happen, with Horus and Guilliman working together for some strategic brilliance, then it would go back to normal.... Or not. I never got that far
