I find the fact that the chaos fleet would even be remotely able to challenge the Imperials utterely ridiculous. Ever since the Horus Heresy, the chaos fleet has suffered continued, inevitable attrition. By the 41st millenium, the chaos fleet would be a shadow of it's former self. With continued production from the thousands of Imperial forge worlds continueing unabated, surely any production from the comparitively tiny Eye of Terror (and any Ships fallen to chaos) would be insignificant in comparison? This recent defeat over Cadia seems to corroborate this. Chaos marshalled it's best, and was (with heavy imperial casualties) crushed by a fraction of the Imperial Navy. How do they stand up to the Imperium at all?
