They are basically ruining their own lore with really bad retcons (giving the Emperor a name, a wife and making her the reason the primarchs were spread through out the galaxy instead of the Chaos gods. Also Emps didn't make the space marines, instead it was some rando scientist). As for the table top, they just keep making it more expensive. They also killed their fan animation community for some reason with threat of DMCA.
