while i dont think the human race will survive i don't see my opinion as particularly pessamistic, simply a logical progression of the unfolding events. obviously my flaw in my opinion is that it's based on logic, and 40k doesn't really put too much faith in logic.

the chances are that when the imperium is on the verge of utter annihilation roboute guilliman will leap off his stasis throne singing "oh what a beautiful morning" and then punch the metaphysical face off of the hive mind, immediately ending the tyranid threat. russ will burst out of the warp really fat - he challenged the chaos gods to an eating contest and won, he ate all 4 of them (admitedly nurgle was a mouthful, but russ persevered through the gag reflex) and ended the chaos threat. and vulkan returns after his boys find all his hidden gear and after they put the stuff all together it makes a galactic doomsday weapon that wipes out all life that is a threat to the imperium.

ok while GW do occasionally ignore logic they're not quite this bad (yet) :)
