The Eldar Pantheon would match them in numbers, while Khaine and Shiva would be fighting pretty equally. Time is pretty much meaningless in the warp, so Chronos can't really use his advantage. As for Khaos, well then, by the Greek definition, that would be the warp itself. If that's the case, then the Oldcrons warp-warding technology could be useful.

Not sure about Khaine matching Shiva. I'd say that dancing the Universe into oblivion is a bit more powerful than simply being the God of War. Chronos would still be unbeatable because he IS time. If he's in the warp there'd be time in the warp.

Time exists in the warp, but not in the orderly fashion it exists in within reality. The warp's very nature is chaotic, even if Chronos can exist in the warp, there's no chance his power can function properly. It'll malfunction wildly once he enters the warp.
