I've always assumed that Fantasy was the history edition of 40k?

As in, 10,000 BC or something along those lines:

-Old ones created all the races on this one planet (not earth)

-Due to cataclysmic event the Old Ones forgot about the planet and the races went mad and duked it out amongst themselves (in this instance lets just say the eldar stationed on the planet went mad & everyone fell into the stone age).

-Races eventually migrated from the planet (lets say through the Obsidian Gate)

-These races eventually became the races in the 40k universe

On a side note I've always envisaged Sigmar as "The Emperor"'s 1st attempt at building a better world for mankind. You cant be 30,000+ years old with powers beyond comprehension without intervening at times - but does not want to show his hand and use his powers, or it was one of his sons who was sigmar, or even his 1st attempt at a Primarch/ Champion. This would then lead on to things such as, the Emperor led mankind off this strange planet to eath/Terra where we hit the 40k timeline (for all the lack of information there is on The Golden Age of Technology & The Age of Strife). Along that note I've always envisaged the Emperor as sticking his nose in at times and accidently causing religions i.e. would be fun if he or one of the sensi (emperors sons) was jesus or something :D
