But is the primarch present in _every_ single battle fought by forces of

-->I'll handle this in two parts. First, the "over use" of the
Primarchs. IMO, this only matters if you're playing a campaign, with
simultaneous battles happening, though played out over different days.
In this case, the Primarch would only be present at 1 battle, while his
troops could be involved in several. Otherwise, it's not that much of an
issue fluff or rules wise, just a matter of taste. Second, taking on the
issue of those traitors who have met final retribution. A Chaos warlord,
leading acrusade IMO can act in the same manor as a Greater Demon. While
not having any nifty Chaos powers, or serious stats, they are on the cusp
of being such, and need to have a successful crusade to advance in the
Chaos Corporate structure. In this case, the war lord would either
gather the various units by strength of will, or would have had them
bequeathed to him/her/it by the various powers. Not a big chnage or rule
bender, just the addition of one paragraph and a stat line.
