This video is just a basic overview of the Horus Heresy, i am aware there are a lot of details that i haven't covered.

The Horus Heresy

Overview:
After a two century long crusade to reunite the planets inhabited by humans and create via genocide a human-only galactic empire, the Emperor of the new Imperium made Horus, the first and supposedly most trustworthy of the Primarchs, the Warmaster (commander-in-chief) of his armed forces while he himself left for unspecified reasons back to Terra (Earth). This exacerbated existing tensions among some of the other Primarchs, the leaders of the Legionnes Astartes, especially those who felt slighted by other decisions of the Emperor or had grievances against their brothers. After being nearly fatally injured, Horus was corrupted during the healing process by visions produced by the Chaos gods, and turned traitor against the Emperor and ultimately led exactly half of all the Primarchs, as well as their Legions, in battle against the Emperor. Most of those who turned against the Emperor became, or already were, corrupted by Chaos. Horus was finally killed in single combat with his creator and his forces fled to the Eye of Terror, where they created their own empires and have continued to harry the Imperium ever since. The Emperor himself was fatally wounded in his battle with Horus and is kept in a moribund state by a technological marvel known as the Golden Throne, only able to express himself psychically.

@WhItMaNs123 The geneseed implantation and changes to their bodies renders them practically immortal. From what the apoticaries can tell, Space Marines are destined to live forever. Thats why they can live with a docterine of "Only in Death does duty end". They will die in combat before their bodoies die of age.

@D0uch3846 maybe they fear the break in the Astronomican that may result when he dies to reincarnate himself

@Darker191 add to TyphoRaame comment... Ezekyle now leads the biggest of Chaos armies, but chaos space marines varies greatly in different warbands, armies and so and each has it´s own leader. Ezekyle is the biggest and meanest of them all, but not controlling all of the others. Chaos is not united.

@Seanaztech he lives still! Only through his immense psychic power constantly projecting the great beacon for the navigators is accurate warp travel possible.

His will is the guiding hand behind everything, he speaks to those high lords who can hear him.

But there are whispers... that the throne is failing, and there are none left now who could repair it...

[TyphoRaame]

@Darker191 It is Warmaster Ezekyle Abaddon "the Despoiler", Horus's former First Captain of the Sons of Horus and rumoured to be clone of Horus.

[Darker191]

I don't know too much about Warhammer but if Horus, leader of the chaos heretics is dead then who leads chaos?

@LichLordKrull Exterminate all but the unclean! DEATH to the False Emperor!
