Hi!

I think I have a way around that problem (see response to Luca's post).

The universe is big enough to stick mostly everything in it somewhere.

As for Slann homeworld, they'd be out of Imperial space, far away from reach of Tyranids or man, thats what makes them so fearsome, you may defeat their armies, but man has not way (yet) to gain final victory.

Another scary thought, where are the TYRANID home worlds.....

Of course we need to know where the Tau worlds are.

  Yep, there still is. However, last time we tried this there was a large rift
  between those who think the Imperium is too stagnant and the other side.
  This will be a tough nut to resolve.

  Aside from that, have you thought about where the Slann homeworlds are?

  And now a REALLY scary thing. A while ago a couple of us started the Void40k
  project, and the first test battle was Viridians vs. IG. That got me
  thinking about including the Void nations to 40k universe <evil grin>. That
  is, after I've finished that #&X$! graduation thesis I'm still writing.
