the emperors son horus was almost an equal match for the emperor but the emperor was holding the golden gate open and so he was already busy and tired with no rest (altho he doesnt really need rest because he is powerful) he had powers being used on the gate  and he wasnt fully ready to face horus but he did it any way otherwise horus wouldve taken terra.

and i havent played fire warrior its on ps2 terrible graphics etc but i looked at some pics an it is terrible.

FPS could capture 40k storyline better imagine graphics and animation like cod in the cut scenes or in the least make a space marine 2 it will portary a protagonists point of view better then a cammand game but i love every dawn of war none the less.

and i am well aware of the heretical choas scum but they can be beaten time an time again its been done so many times before and with that inquisitor dusk dude i agree it is possible he wanted to be wounded and he will be in godhood and deal with the choas gods,we all know the emperor is smart etc he would not his imperium die he knows even in his death he can help and he will most likly com back with the primarches.

trying to reply for everything lol im all over the place but hope u guys under stand~general patton

You reacted defensively so that was what I had assumed based off of my own experiences during puberty and that of my associates in my locality, I apologize if it seems that I have made an assumption.

Moving onto the topic at hand, again, they've kept the Emperor and the Imperium in it's current state since at least the nineties, unless a huge number of people stop buying GW's products they'll keep sticking to the current kalpa. It's a business strategy to ensure that people keep buying their stuff. Besides which if GW started waking the Emperor up or bringing in loyalist primarchs it could shake up things too much, particularly towards Chaos or xenos players since it would seem like GW was unfairly supporting the people who play as SOB/space marines/imperial guard over Chaos or xenos players.

Warhammer works as a wargame/tabletop RPG (in the cases of games like Rogue Trader, Dark Heresy, Deathwatch, maybe a couple others I might've missed) where the lore can be utilized freely and the player can even create his/her own armies, putting a COD styled FPS in the franchise would limit this freedom to shooting some random alien with just the bare bones of the setting in place. That's not even mentioning how tired modern styled FPS games are nowadays, one game might as well be the other with only minor changes anymore in that series.
