As Rick Priestly said, I somewhat believe that 40k’s mythical past should be left to the imagination. IMO the HH and GC have already been fleshed out far too much. If you delve into the unification wars and golden age of humanity I fear everything that is unknown will become known. Would be somewhat boring

Finding myself agreeing with this.
There's a lot more appeal in fleshing out the alien races like the Hrud - there's that one picture in one of the HH BBB that has a bunch of the 'unknown' races humanity had to steamroll in the great crusade and i would be hyped for a book covering their civilizations and unique threats compared to the "well that's kinda cool" response i'm feeling for 'unification wars'.
