Errr.. isn't Aun'shi very dead? Culexus killed him? Or was that Aun'Va?
aun'shi is the very terrible melee ethereal with ws 5 and i5 withe the rest of the ethereal stats that has a special ability to get rending or re-roll saves in challenges ( chosen before rolls of course ) . I don't even believe he gets the normal ethereal invocations either but could be wring , and to lazy to dig out the book

(SPOILERS! DO NOT READ IF YOU DONT WANT SPOILERS!)
Spoiler:
Aun'Va is already dead, He was killed by an Imperial Assassin and since the Ethereals dident want to cause panic they replaced him with a hologram to make everyone think he's still alive. I want them to advance the story by removing the hologram and admitting he is dead, So they can elect a new Aun'O, Or a Ethereal Council, To replace him.
Spoiler:
It would be a very tau way of doing things too, Aun'va is(was?) considered old even by ethereal standards, so they could simply say he died of old age. That would not cause panic, and allow him to be replaced at the same time (with aun'shi ).

Abaddon on the Chaos side; I've never found him that interesting, and personally I prefer chaos forces that are loose alliances, usually happy to stab each other in the back afterwards. I actually prefer the idea that Chaos is dangerous, but that they could be even more dangerous if they ever united properly, having Abaddon around suggests that's already the case, yet the Imperium hasn't fallen, so there's no tension there at all.
I'd also like to see Kaldor Draigo die, though I really like the metal model; his fluff is just ridiculous, like it was written by some rabid fanboy whose character has to be the best at literally everything because penis size reasons. I'd like to see him die a mewling coward's death or even be corrupted, finally add an extra layer to the grey knights rather than just more of the same fan-fiction grade material they always get.
For Ultramarines I think I agree on Marneus Calgar; he's pretty boring and I've always found the double power fist aesthetic ridiculous. Of course we now have Logan Grimnar on a flying chariot, so I'd probably axe him too, but his model is new so that'll never happen.
Obviously I'd axe no-one from Sisters of Battle, since we only have two special characters left. But considering Uriah Jacobus is already supposed to be dead I'd see him replaced by someone else, and a whole bunch of new sisters characters added, and a new codex that doesn't suck ass and plastic kits for everything. Ahem.
For Eldar I'd axe the Phoenix Lords; GW seems to have no interest in actually releasing decent models for them, as well as a bunch of neglected aspect warriors. Maybe they could do aspect warrior kits that also build the corresponding Phoenix Lord, and slowly re-introduce them. But many have never been that interesting anyway, so it'd be nice to see them die in some huge battle a terrible blow to the Eldar but have them recover as new heroes take their place or something.

1) Sicarius - 'Cause feth that guy
2) Calgar - "Cause I wanna see who would be chosen as the next chapter master
3) Abadon - 'Cause I want the plot to continue WITH loyalists winning unlike poor fantasy.
4) Thrakka - 'Cause I want Yarrik to lead a WAAGH! against 'Nids or Daemons
I'll never be able to repay CA for making GW realize that The Old World was a cash cow, left to die in a field.
He appears on a planet and goes off to help some poor Space Marines in need BUT...forgets to look before crossing the street and promptly gets run over by a Land Raider.
3) Abadon - 'Cause I want the plot to continue WITH loyalists winning unlike poor fantasy.
The loyalists are winning...
Did you not read the fluff? Creed is unstoppable.
@Selym: You mean apart from the Emperor running a high risk of being killed by daemons breaking into the Emperor's Palace through the Webway portal and murdering him? Thus dooming all of humanity... Yeah, sounds like we're winning lol.

No, I'm talking about Cadia and Abaddon. Humanity's problems in the 40k setting have exactly nothing do do with the CSM forces because at best they come in raiding parties of about a dozen or so dudes, and they get taken out by lasguns. The "threatening" CSM forces are being held at bay by plot and Creed.
Now, Tyranids. That's a problem. Except on the TT.
