Is Warhammer 40K, 40 000 years after Warhammer? Warhammer seems to me to be a "LotR-world" but scrambled to not infringe copyright.
Dune and Warhammer seem to have real people, while Warhammer 40K seem to be caricatures. W40K just takes the absurdness too far for me to be able to identify with the characters. Morality does not seem to be a thing in W40K.
- Ekaros 3y agoNo, it is probably 28 to 38 thousand years in future... No one knows exactly in universe probably besides emperor... Now for most purposes dead... Full timeline isn't exact. Warhammer world, could theoretically be single planet unseen somewhere in 40k, but more likely one of alternative universes with such as Blood Bowl. 40k suffers because most well-known character aren't well that human anymore. It goes for aliens, but also for Emperor, and Primarchs and Space Marines. Still there is lot of room for more human stories, butt they are often played for comedy or the grimdarkness. Or even almost lovercraftian horror...
