Imagine, if you built a time machine, and you knew about the Warhammer40k Universe. And suppose this future actually would exist, where would you travel and what would you do?

I'd travel to the 31st Millenium, and go on shouting to the Emperor, that Horus will be a traitor and ruin everything.

I'd grab up 2 of every Black Library book minus CS Goto's work, and then travel to the 30th Millenium and present these books as books of prophecy to the emperor. That's got to throw a monkey wrench into the plans of Tzeentch and the Cabal. Just as planned.

I'd do some research, go back in time with some money, and then invest it wisely. I'd also make numerous sports bets, like Biff.

Then, sit back with the hoes.

Like kronk i'd probably tell myself to invest in microsoft and google.. Every last penny

Get a job with GW in the 80s, go straight to the top, and get gak done properly like advertising, steady releases, merchandise, a movie, and make 40k a household name.

Prevent Mat Ward's Birth.
Nah, that would be harsh, but at least stop him from doing some of the bad things he done.

take some modern technology to maybe roman times,(and they said there was no use for a latin gcse) and become emperor of rome (while preventing you know, the catastrophe that it became)

"Insert random power fantasy like every one else does when asked this question."

Id go back in time and prevent JFK from being killed, then travel forward and realize that the world is adversly affected, then take the older JFK back to the grassy knoll so he can shoot and kill his younger self........

Wait what? Red Dwarf already did that?....


Dammit.

Pretty sure the big E would mind blast you as a heretic.. and I would also do a back to the future "Biff" thing and bet on all sports I knew the outcome then invest money in microsoft, google, facebook and walmart.
A nice little random fact that may have not been known! Walmart is the biggest company on the planet in terms of gross and net profit and total worth! Bigger then all Mining, Oil and electricity companies.

I'd go back to the 18 millennium and and stop the fall of the eldar. Slanesh would not have been born, And eldar would become the most powerful race in 40k.

I'd neva loose!

Oh, I've thought about this many a time.

I would travel back to any group of cavemen sitting around a fire at night. I would bring a roll of plastic wrap.

I would stand before the fire and tug the wrap so it makes that awful noise.

Then I'd press my face against the sheet and make faces.

Then I'd ball up the plastic and throw it into the fire making a blue/green flame.

Jump back in the time machine and go back to a future where there are statues of my "magical" greatness in every corner of the world.
