      @@jmontoya4689 Hey, if you're asking me, I would go with the safe and great answer of the entire Horus Heresy saga. Over 50 novels, dozens of short stories and other related works. I say this because the entire series is now complete and can be read in chronological order.
      It also encompasses both the very height of the Imperium of Man with the Emporer's Crusade, participation of all 18 known primarchs and of course covers the tragic betrayal and civil war of the Heresy itself.
      So many great books there and IMO incredibly satisfying.

    • @TOUGHEYES

      You'd get that, you'd also get culturally specific deific Archetypes hyper charged by the self belief of the humans. Roughly what the Eldar do, & kinda what the Emperor has as his foundation from all the Shamans, but well, they didn't have his longevity I think.

      Nah. There is so many turn based and strategy 40k games. We need a first person narrative game like the Witcher.
      Imagine it starts with you as a Primarch, crash landing on your new home. You achieve things following the lore until the Emperor arrives for you. The next game would have you at the head of your own legion. Each chapter has its own series of games until they all culminate with the Horus Hersesy trilogy.

    I honestly believe that the emperor was no more than a weapon. Much like the rest of the perpetuals. He and the other perpetuals purposely destroyed all hope for advancement, peace or any form of true enlightenment. With all the crap about him being a master strategist, every decision I've seen him make in the lore has seemed designed to fail. Example: not bothering to warn his Primarchs about chaos... Especially since big E probably tried to dupe the chaos gods in some way. Just saying.
