As they explain it, the worlds of Warhammer Fantasy and 40,000 are separate universes, linked by the Warp.
The Elves of WHF and the Eldar of 40k are similar, but they are not the same race.
The Slann of the Lizardmen are similar to the Old Ones of 40k, but not the same race either..
Nope, the chaos gods are connected to sentient life and feed off of it.
Killing one would probably mean you'd have to cut off their source of power in real space or disrupt the warp by some other means..
Warhammer 40,000 was initially conceived as a science fiction counterpart to Warhammer Fantasy, and while they are not connected to each other in a shared universe, their settings share similar themes and tropes..
The Milky Way Galaxy is the realm in which Warhammer 40,000 takes place.
It is a vast spiral galaxy, ninety-thousand light years across and fifteen-thousand light years thick, containing roughly four hundred billion stars..

Sigmar, founder of The Empire, wielded a mighty Dwarf-made Warhammer from which the name of the "Warhammer Fantasy" setting is derived..
So let's get the introduction out of the way, I am Dante on Discord with people on discord calling me Hashi or you might know me from Twitter as @HashionDiscord or as my old handle @Alpharius_lives.
If somehow you were not aware of what Warhammer is before seeing this blog it is the mythos the games produced by Games Workshop take place in, you might call this a Unified Warhammer Cosmology but personally I never really had them separated which is why I insist on the verse just being Warhammer.
I made this blog a little over two years ago to mainly just present the scaling for Age of Sigmars' Cosmos Arcane that I pioneered with the 40k sections being built over time to support said scaling.
That's not to say that I haven't pioneered some of the 40k arguments for example the skein, veil, material multiverse, and limbo sections are all mine but the highest tier ones were pioneered by others which will be credited below.

This article/section is being updated from time to time.
Therefore, this page/section is not ever really complete and may have information added in the future, possibly even having massive portions retracted.
TL;DR doesn't really add anything to the height of the cosmology.
The main material universe connects to the Warp but so do a multitude of other universes, for this section I will be using stuff from Fantasy if you're curious as to why see the later section on why Fantasy and 40k share the warp.
So the Material Universe is similar to ours in some ways like having multiple galaxies for starters:
Before we talk about what most people would call the multiverse let's quickly talk about the veil: this is just one of the barriers you must pass to access the warp:
To start off about the warp proper, let's absolutely destroy this notion that it is only Galaxy sized.
Besides the later dimensional tiering scaling which would logically make it bigger than a universe let alone a galaxy there are these statements that do show its larger than the Galaxy:
So beyond just basic stuff that wouldn't apply to the warp like space time etc, the warp has layers:
