One of the more interesting theories I saw was that the Galaxy would be destroyed. The Emperor's death coupled with all the worship of him impacting the warp would cause him to achieve apotheosis and become a god in the warp. He would likely have just as much heat behind his birth as Slanessh did if not more which would cause another rip in reality centered around Terra. Similar to what happened with Slaneesh and it would cause the Cicatrix Maledictum to spread and encompass the whole galaxy.

[@Betterthenme]

He is technically dead like the body on the throne is 100% dead, only his soul survived tethered to the body and throne.

[@TheCorrodedMan]

I fully believe that the Emperor could be resurrected, it’s just that no one wants to put in the work. My proposal is this: declare Terra a crusade goal, and gather together as many human warriors as you can; astartes, imperial guard regiments, sisters of silence, every last available soldier in the galaxy. Then, put them in front of the broken webway gate. Summon up several Titan legions to stand watch with the custodes at the eternity gate, and then cut Big E’s life support. If the gathered armies can withstand the ensuing shitstorm long enough, the Emperor can regenerate and live again. He can then take the throne again as his complete self, guide the astronomicon, and sort out the Imperium.

I always thought that all the enemies of the imperium would eventually kill the Emperor but the story would continue. Turning into a "we have to hold out for an indefinite amount of time" story until the Emperor really appears probably a couple thousand years later because GW would want to milk everything for each setting, kinda like the jump from old imperium to Blue boy being active. But I hope it doesn't happen until all the Primarchs return which would give humanity a good chance and give them a second chance.

Speaking of alliances. Vulcan in the War of the Beast fell into pure Waagh energy, didn't he? That would make it possible for him to be believed by Orks as an embodiment of Waagh. Orks' belief seems to actually manifest if enough Orks believe in it, so if Vulcan gathers enough Ork-frends into this weird heretical Waagh he would straight up be unstoppable (as that would technically make him akin to a god and Big E's case shows that belief empowers gods. There are A LOT of Orks in the galaxy to spread the word of Green Jesus to) . The Green Boiz gang of Salamanders and Orks will hug the chaos out of Galaxy.

I think it would be possible for a powerful psyker, maybe even a Primarch, to take over the golden throne for a time like Malcador the Bro did and allow the Emperor to either heal or come back from the dead (basically the same thing) unburdened by the drain of the throne. It would probably horrifically drain or kill whoever took one for the team, but doing something like sacrificing a Primarch for the return of Emperor seems like a pretty great idea tbh

[@Alternative_Alba]

Yeah. Using a Primarch would totally work. But thing is, it would take a shit ton of Psyker sacrifices to give big E enough energy to regenerate instantly. And even if Big E comes back, what? He is mentally unstable. The first thing he would probably do after resurrection, is to massacre half of mankind. In order to purify the stains left by the old order,

Ok, have two points to make. First, Majorkill stop letting little Timmy run around the thrown room next to the big E's life support system, that's just asking for trouble. Second, 40k theories is awesome and thanks for giving them respect, honestly that operatic intro is worth their status alone.

[@coltonthorpe7812]

I love the theory crafting at the end. Personally, I would love to see the next loyalist primarch that returns create something of a rift in the imperium. Say if the lion were to return, and he chose to continue with the hard line anti-xeno way of things but papa Smurf wanted a more open minded option to combat chaos and the Tyranids. Maybe lead a faction of the imperium from ultramar that was more open to elder or necrons. I know it goes entirely against ultra grim dark setting and the crusades the emporer fought, but it would still be pretty freaking rad to see a combined force between Mankind, elder, necrons, and space commies could come up with. Then still hold on to OG puritan imperial factions for those that want to with the lion.

[@haydenrobbie7368]

well if they are able to get even just one of those secondary beacons to Terra then the emperor wouldn't need to spend as much energy on that part of the thrones functions thus allowing him to focus on the portal and or use a small bit of energy to start healing... or maybe even have enough energy to fully close the web-way if at all possible...

(Head canon) The Emperor is already dead, Horus killed him, and in turn, Horus actually sits on the golden throne. Horus used chaotic influence to bring the traitor legions into compliance in the first place, this is why the Traitors use the “death to the FALSE emperor” line and the Alpha legion’s “For the Emperor.”

I think if the Emperor died, it would cause the Imperium to fracture and crumble but it will force humanity adapt to survive. Inventing new technology and finally advancing for the first time in 10 000 years. The Imperium as it is now is not what the Emperor wanted and I think he wants to finally die. Maybe that would be the best thing for humanity. To start over.

[@vermilion7777]

The emperor IS dead. Nobody tells the crowd though.

[@thomaschinyere-ezeh6676]

I've thought about and pondered on why man kind has stagnated. After all they had a thriving empire before the emperor took charge, could it be that the rigid codex's and laws of the empire and they're willing to crush anything deemed heretical is stagnating mankind? Not only that but most of mankind's most dangerous threats are of its own making, i.e. traitor legions. They're is also the matrix theory where an op protagonist will spawn an op antagonist. So perhaps the op emperor building an overwhelmingly strong empire forced the enemies to raise they're game, the power of neo meant a counter balance came to being. Think about the Roman empire, it became a target across most of its frontiers because of the land it held because of its power and prosperity. So an empire without the emperor may cease to exist as it is now but it's enemies especially the traitor legions who's sole purpose is the overthrow of the emperor will then turn on other things. Perhaps then mankind would have the respite and ideological freedom to advance and thrive in the long run. Like major said they'll also be forced to actually ally with friendly xenos and become a better structure.

[@cherryrook8684]

To quote Iroh from Last Airbender: "It is important to draw wisdom from many differnet places. If we only take it from one place, it becomes rigid and stale." The empire as it is rn sees anything xenos related as heresy, although there are factions within the imperium using xenos tech its still kind of under the table. If they were more open minded they could adapt a lot of things, not only tech but also tactics and economics. And the key to victory is understanding your enemy, until now the empire mostly brute forced their way to "victory". Thats at least my take on it.
