Well, let's remember that He was building a passage into the Webway to gain control of it. That would allow instant comunication across the whole Galaxy, and the use of tactics much cheaper than a fully armed Astartes Legion - such as the Brannigan Principle: "Throw batallions at them until they overwhelm their killing rate" xD With all respect to the Imperial Army, drowning the enemy in corpses about two days after he shows up is much simpler than sending a Legion through the Warp and then use powerful tactics and weapons and etc.

About the return...Yeah, it should happen at some point of M42. I'd say Russ shows up against Chaos, if Khan is alive he'd kill some Dark Eldar for sure, Lion would wipe the last Fallen and give the Emperor's Peace to Luther, Vulkan would do great against the Tyranids, and Corax should save his Chapter from that huge Waaagh! xD

Codex rewriting? No need for 10k Chapters again, that'd be risking another Heresy on the long term, but more tactical flexibility would be welcome.
