I think at the very least orks should be in they are most populace race in warhammer.
They have been fightin and winning since before mankind was even a thing and if humanity thought they wiped um before the heresy it just means humanity dident spread out as far as they thought.
Orks is never beaten in battle.
They always comes back for another go. So if they wanted um in the heresy it's as simple as one line of text....... WAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

If we were to put any xenos in 30k, orks would be the only one i'd be fine with. Even if they were generally scattered after Ulanor, I can imagine there would be enough around and active to warrant it.

Nope. People joined 30K to get away from the 40K madness. Play Orks there with your twenty other factions. The Horus Heresy won´t be diluted by injecting nonsense into it.

I am awaiting the Ork fandex with open arms. I really want to represent Orks fighting my Salamanders using the 30k framework.

I'm not saying I *want* orks in 30k, I'm just saying it'd be the only one I'd tolerate.

the Aus 30k codex for origional horus heresey was good, we did an Ullanor game as a goodbye to HH1.0 with it in June in Tallahassee FL with a more than 100k point game. Several of us are workign on updating that codex for HH 2.0 but need more armies out as we want to add a looted armor segment but don't want it to be too powerful.

Orks are probably the biggest one I want officially in, but there is room for the Eldar and Dark Eldar. Dark eldar are noted as using pre unification worlds as harvesting worlds to gain humans for thier amusement, and the craftworlds were def around and active. see Eldrad trying to warn Fulgrim about the fall of horus and not seeing the literal great enemy she who thirsts sword on him.

Necrons are all still asleep (well most but that's another thing and they were noninteractive if indeed the few awake were awake that early). Tau were busy evolving from tadpoles. Tyranids have no cannon to be there that early and the likely signal/dinner bell that attracted them was not sent until late in the heresy

^Yeah, I'd be interested in seeing Eldar, personally.

Or non-Imperial human factions, but that's not a commitment I'd expect from modern GW.

oh yea, a lot of the human factions liek the Interex would be super cool to see, also maybe new Xenos like the Hrud.

The Leagues of Votaan should also be around, even if they couldn't care less about the Heresy.

Oh right, I hadn't even made that connection. I think factions only register with me after I've played against them.

Fulgrim(the book, not the character) specifically mentions that as Imperial worlds start rebelling when Istvaan III occurs, aliens take advantage of the chaos to rampage and steal back territory.

I don't see Xenos in HH, I could see them in "Warhammer 30,000" but GW have enough trouble supporting the lines they have so are likely happy to milk HH where one kit is usable by the bulk of the factions

Ullanor would be a nice point 0 for the Heresy the GREATEST victory before it all went down the tubes a campaign book and the option to have or convert bigger nastier Orks. Being an Ork Player/Collector that would appeal to me on all levels.

But I do hear people about it just being 40k in the 30k setting...

I think GW should just expand 30k Scouring would be the next logical point of progression pursuing the traitors into the eye of terror the ahem "Death/Mortal wounding of Gulliman at the hands of Fulgrim.. etc etc...
