Honestly I feel the the creators of warhammer decided to take pieces from very popular literature and use that as the basis for the creation of the background of the game. I mean prospero is a planet in warhammer but it was a magician in one of shakespeares final plays. A quote from one of shakespeares plays is the last words said by the Raven guard primarch. Were the creators shakespeare crazy no but they took the pieces from things that people remembered most and thought was very creative and worked it into the game. The result is something that many people can both relate too but for those that dont know all the little pieces think the storyline of warhammer is truly epic. Look at stargate SG-1 they incorpated so much egyptian lore and background into the storyline, it wasn't how it actually happened but by making the connection people felt a sort of connection to it because it wasn't something completely random. Not the only way to make something amazing or epic but its a very interesting and successful way of bringing something to life and getting the audience to like it and feel connected to it. This is of course only my opinion.
