I'm not sure how easy it will be to work with Games Workshop. Also, I really would have preferred the Horus Heresy -- which could have a real endgame. Otherwise, 40k could be a series without a point and could be more nimble in it's presentation so that might work better. I had a hard rule against reading anything where the toy came first, but I've been surprised by HH and 40k. It's not the best writing/storytelling ever, but it is self-consistent and presents such a different view of things I'm enjoying it. They seem to understand what a galaxy wide fight means (it's big!). And the stakes at hand are very high and require obscene efforts from our point of view, but the threat is existential to humanity and it's all justified (?).
