OR...they suck balls at rolling armour saves

Yeah.... apparently my Daemon Prince and Obliterators don't like saving themselves.
@ Noobert. Tbh.. I disagree.. I think the CSM were shown to be weak for a purely marketing service. Space Marines are their main sellers of all their armies and GW is shamelessly renowned when it comes to marketing to be rather ruthless (hell they butchered chaos to have Daemons and CSM's as separate armies so people would have to buy both or see models become obsolete). So I think it was just more opportunity to see the bank go up or to perhaps give something back to all those Space Marine users out there. Then they let the sting off by making the Daemon Prince worth some time.
On Armageddon. Well there were millions on Terra and during the great crusade. Sieges and beyond. If they did Armageddon.. they may be tempted to do the first war which as much as i'd love to see Angron a bodyguard of Bloodthirsters and some GK's go have a scrap i'd much prefer to see the Horus Heresy. Although the idea of having all three Armageddon wars as a trilogy isn't too bad... it's got Chaos, Orks, Space Marines, GK's, Imp Guard... does touch a few notes. Although I think they may do something with Tyranids if they do anything more.
There is the Gothic war too. That was a large part of 40k history and had everyone in it (as well as the latest 13th Crusade). Gothic War has plenty of space action in it too which could be a great new angle.
