Which army will win? I was thinking Tyranids or Orks.

Well one day the Emperor will eventually die and the atronomican will fade away and then the Nid's who are supposedly following that will leave.

Orks are just too simple minded and un-intelligent to ever be able to dominate the Galaxy, unless their brains develop.

Eldar will eventually die out and Dark Eldar will just continue living in the webway pillaging

Tau will continue their expansion until they reach the rest of the galaxy who will not take kindly to their idealistic ways.

I'm thinking Necrons here.

Easy Chaos would eventually win, Necrons and Tyranids MIGHT win for a time but Eventually it will always be Chaos. I would say Chaos Daemon would eventually kill off all the Chaos Space Marines after the Imperium and the rest of the major powers dies. So Chaos Daemon would eventually win, not Chaos Space Marine.

i would say imperium, the emperor is immortal right? i mean if one of the primarchs is immortal then he would have gotten that from the emperor. i dont want to say which one for those who have not found out.

but if the Imperium deteriorates and all the Xenos races destroy mankind, then Daemon kind theoretically would die with them (hypothesized by the Cabal).

Then the Tau would just make one too many enemies so they'll be like the new Imperium and eventually deteriorate, and the Eldar are just dying out full stop

So it'll be a race between Necrons and Dark Eldar i suppose, however Dark Eldar have no interest in creating any empire.

Orks live to wage war. In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.

An Ork's entire existence is one long winning streak.

There is a projected 50k up on 1d4chan the /tg/ wiki
http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Warhammer_50k
It's even more grimdark. But otherwise if Tau can bring enlightenment and better alliance making (less swearing fealty, more actual partnerships) everybody sentient and not intrinsically evil could win, imagine imperial, Tau and eldar all working together sharing technology...

Screw 50k, 60k is where it is at!

It is very long, but long story short.

Necrons go extinct when the Void Dragon wakes up with a vengeance with only a few hundred of the noble Necrons (Silent king included) have there souls switched into human blank bodies.

Orks get all but extinct when the Tyranids and Orks merge into one creature which eventually either splits to another galaxy or are killed by the Void Dragon. But that's where Ghazzie comes in. Before the merge he got into the webway (Was let into the webway...) and when he came out with his waaagh!, it was no longer a Waaagh! But a Kork Waaaagh!. These Korks (Smart, advanced, extremely psykic orks lead by Gretchins) then began dominating an empire and being one of the only races to hold back the Void Dragon. They, like many other races, are being manipulated by The Harlequins and there Laughing God.

Tau, Also being manipulated by the laughing god, got there butts wiped by the Void Dragon destroying there empire, but some survived due to help from the Dark Eldar (Well, Lady Malys, who is also working for Cegorarch) and they established a new, small realm. They are the most advanced in naval warfare having entire navies of super long range drone controlled ships. Space Pope got abducted by daemons, so now they are trying to get to Terra (Now a daemon world) to rescue him.

Tyranids are gone, Either high tailed it away from the Void Dragon or got devoured by the New Tyranork's, who are mostly gone to.

Craftworld Eldar are all but dead, having only Biel-Tan left, which has absorbed all the other craftworld survivors, so is MASSIVE. But it is now under siege by Huron BlackHeart (Who now has a massive empire near the ghoul stars), gak loads of daemons and typhus. But in there defence, the Phoenix Lords are kicking butt, being more powerful then ever and are getting ready for the Final Battle by releasing Ynnead. Morgan Ra also could of killed Russ and Shrike simultaneously in an awesome fight scene, but let them live, 'Cause he can.

Chaos got weird. The New chaos god is going round kicking everyones butt with there super daemons (Draigo, Herald of the Star Father and Sebastian Thor incarnate). Nurgle is probably doing best 'cause Typhus is awesome. Abbadon has gone Bat gak crazy after his entire Cadia empire was destroyed by the Star Father so has set off to go kill the universe or die trying. He is currently leading Planet Killer to kill his biggest rival Huron, so he is acturally working in defence of Biel-Tan(??)

Dark Eldar have been doing same old same old. And would probably continue doing thins until the end of time, but it turns out Cegorarch had different plans. He gave Vect a chance to bow to him, Vect of course, laughed in his face. Cegorarch then decided to 'Distract' the Dark Eldar race while he conquered the galaxy by having the Big K (4 armed Mandrake guys, please don't make me spell his name) open a portal to shadow hell or something, trapping Commaragh in a war in the shadows until they break out. Only ones to escape are Lady Malys's massive fleet because she works for Cegorarch and the Duke, because he leads Corsair's and was out of the Dark city when it happened.

Humans got screwed, screwed again and are now back on track. Imperium went to poo when empy died, when to poo again when all the petty empires made in its place got in the Void Dragons way but now have a safe empire lead by Vulkan (Yes, he came back, along with Russ and the Raven Guard one). Guilimen died when Draigo killed Ultramar, Fulgrim got killed by Vulkan and Angron got beat up by Russ.

Sisters are gone, Blood angles when Vamp (No kidding either) But then Asuraman killed Mephy and unlocked Sanguinius's memory inflicting them all with the black rage. Ahriman is awesome and could well become a god. He has a massive army of Ruberics because when ever he comes across marines he simply flicks his wrists to make more. Khaine when Bat Gak crazy after he got reincarnated as a massive, mountain sized daemon beast by the Incubi and Ahra and is now stomping around some place with hordes of crazy humans (He don't like Eldar no more, but weirdly, Biel-Tans avatar seems to of broke its link with him) and stolen Khorne daemons, He killed the NightBringer with his horde of crazy humans too.

Oh, and The Future/Past/Paradox/Really confusing Emperor-like entity is in the Webway Gathering an army for the Final Battle from warriors all through time (Including the Grey knights, Cypher and the Apex Twins), I think he is in cahoots with the P.Lords and probably Cegorarch. I think that's everything...Thanks for listening!

So, I don't think anyone wins. No single race will win, because it seems to me that the ENTIRE of warhammer are just used as ambitions by god/like entities which are themselves going to win. So if anyone Mortal is going to win, it might by Ahriman. But more likely is that its going to be a certain god, such as the Star Father, the weird webway emperor, Cegorarch working with Malal/Qah (Same being, different sides) or the Void Dragon. Us mortals can never catch a break!

Gonna go with necrons.

If the imperium falls the warp will calm down again taking out chaos mostly.

The tyranids will move on after devouring whatevers in there way, likely destroying tau in the progress.

Orks will yust continue on as they always have, its a win in their eyes to yust be able to keep fighting annyways.

Eldar, dark eldar yust try and hang in there but beign to small to do much.

Whenn the necrons all wake up they will likely be the ones to lay claim to the galixy.

None of them. If any of them 'win', they're not going to get medals and a pension. They'll be all that's left, and then eventually collapse under their own weight with finite supplies.

Well in Nightspear they see that if the Necrons topple the Imperium, Chaos will be unopposed and the Rhana Dandra will begin.

If Lord thraka wins armeggedon he will get lots of boyz to serve him and kill all the humies.Then chaos will be weakened because 90% of their none daemon and chaos space marines are traitors to the Imperium so reinforcements will become almost nonexistant.The eldar will be killed off by tyranids who get killed by necrons,Who get damaged by DE(DE get wiped out anyway)In the end the orks win.But humanity will become slaves and the cycle starts all over again.

The Nids have only taken 12 galaxies, and have never dealt with the Warp before.

It is best to be a pessimist. You are usually right and, when you're wrong, you're pleasantly surprised.

And they don't need to deal with the Warp. Take out humanity and eldar and chaos goes bye-bye.

Chaos needs constant worship to stay this powerfull... with humanity,and eldar slowly but surely dying out,.. the tau which is a relative small empire at this point they are looking at a serious loss of worshippers...

Then theres Orks... Gork and Mork baby,.. they dont give a damn about Khorne and the other ones
Necrons,.. lol,... they stand a chance of annihalating everything,.. though my money is on Orks as orks keep surprising the Necron uberlord.
Nids,... id doubt they leave this major dinnerfest.. humans,orks,tau,eldar... yummm! Lots of fooooood! Nids also stand a good chance.. though IMO orks would win against nids eventualy... just waaaaaay more bodies... and where orks fight they send out a signal/aura or something that attracts nearby orks.. the more orks the more orks start appearing... This in combination with their ability to take heavy punishment, good regen and spore droppings and they will never get tired of battle... hmmm yeah... ORKS!!!

I think they're immortal to the extent to which elves are immortal as in they won't die of natural causes. And didn't the Emperor get his face melted off by Horus?

Either Imperium or Chaos.
The Emperor is a perpetual just like Vulkan right? So he can't really die, he'll be reborn anyways. And Vulkan is still running around, wich is good if the Salamanders find him on time. And of course there's the Lion and Rowboat Girllyman if they awaken and heal up.

Poor ignorant guardsmen, it be but one of many of the great miracles of the Emperor! The Emperor is magic, like Harry Potter, but more magic! A most real and true SPACE WIZARD! And for the last time... I'm not a space plumber.
