Just one note for every comment about Emps dying...he is a perpetual...so are a whole shit load of humans, even one Primarch. Humanity once dominated the galaxy without need of powers like Emp, it was forgotten sure but ruling out the Imperium and Emps, suggest complete ignorance of their origin, thought we could re-invent things, or the only other fact the fluff has provided that the Eldar have seen the final war, and its simply good vs chaos gods. Necrons are great and all, and don't get me wrong biologically Nids are all mighty, but the Necron were once crippled by Gods, and nids ain't exactly omni-potent or much more than a potential conduit of the warp in my opinion, long term at least. Think the Hive Mind stand up agaisnt the primordal devourer if they squared off in the warp? Not so sure my self.

My fringe theory is due to them hammering home the 'perpetual plot line' in Horus Heresy, the End times will hinge on those buggers either being killed(the anthame) or ascending to god-hood. Why the hell else would the chaos gods be so freaked out about Emps/John Grammaticus. and what do you think Emps plan was for himself were anyways if the horus heresy hadnt occurred?(rem Magnus was gonna be next Emperor, Emps words),

My last thing to add, all f what I read completely ignores what the Cabal is doing in relation to that exact event, for example, the Alpha Legion is no chaos faction, they defected to save and perserve the galaxy due to the Cabal's belief that it ends in two ways, the Imperium wins and the galaxy burns apart, or the Imperium dies for the galaxy to live on. Though that assumes the Cabal is even on point, or not just another conduit for chaos, my only reason to think that is John Grammaticus's and especially his buddies quickly souring opinion of the Cabal, and their mission.
