On a diffrent note it is good to see a 1d4chan anrgy marine on here.

The only downside I can see would be the inevitable and shrill whining from Necron/Tyranid/Soriritas players.

2k points sisters (formerly daemon hunters grr.....)
10,000 point apoc army mostly imortals with tesla carbines for troops
Starting nids in the winter.
I am not mad necrons and sisters of battle were around just necrons hade only just then started waking up from the long sleep.
Also Eldar were know as well as orks and the dark eldar

Fluff wise it would be impossible and economicly unwise for Gw to release rules for the primarchs. These are people that can defeat Titans and destroy armys, they would,t work on the 1500pt system and it would be a single unit vs an army.

As to recreating 30k it is very easy with a bit of work to create campaign rules from the standard rules to play the Horus Heresy.

There were a few that were wiped out during the great crusade, like those snake people that Fulgrim killed.

Is there any case of a Primarch actually destorying a titan? I mean I can see Rowboat Girlyman punching a hole in a Baneblade or Angron ripping a normal space marine in half with ease, but I feel that their strength is really overrated. In individual combat they are probably nearly impossible to match, but there doesn't seem to be anything that makes them truly as tough as people claim, many of the Primarchs were wounded at times from non-primarchs.

Yes Magnus took down a titanin fluff, the melee strenght of a primarch is not their only power, a primarch on the table would also most likely give feel no pain to the entire army due to their leadership abilities.

GW cannot make primarch/Emperor rules due to the fluff as if they follow fluff the models would be massively overpowered and if they didn't people would complain. It is a lose/lose for them.

Maybe GW can release some sort of Risk style unification, where you can play as the emporer and try to take over Terra.
