I hate when they try in all ways to tell how the Imperium is not racist, hateful or cishetnormative, but the moment people sympathyze with the only human faction, they cry about how they don't get the satire of how comically evil they are.
Real white supremacists would play Eldar anyway

Imperium is the only human faction setting wise. But they do have multiple playable factions game wise.

Chaos can be entirely human, as can renegade space marines. They usually aren't but it's not that unusual. Chaos warbands don't tolerate xenos.

Which is stupid. You break every human taboo imaginable but species mixing is where the line is? Based chaos?
A kill team set of a load of cool minor xenos chaos cultists would be cool

I always found that disappointing. I thought Chaos would be cool because it would be a mash of humans, xenos, and demons, but it's actually just the Imperium with spikes.

They shouldn't have separated Chaos into CSM wank. They're should only be 2 codex for Chaos. The Lost and The Darned for mortal chaos cultists (xenos/traitor guard/dark admech, unaligned Traitor Marines like Iron warriors and Night Lords etc..) and Daemons of Chaos for each God's demons and their pet legions eg Death guard etc..
Even expanding the T'au auxiliaries would awesome. Codex:Auxiliaries and Codex:Septs idk Just rip off the Covenant from Halo where the minor xenos of the Galaxy the Imperium have near exterminated band together out of desperation for a lot weird units and concepts.

I think Chaos should have 5 codices. The Lost and the Darned, as you said, and one for each of the four gods.

Aren't the Leagues of Votann de-facto human too? since they're Squats descended from Human Manlets iirc.

lol didn't even know about them. ask mr not a nerd
@D. Probably wouldn't count for being ALL mutants.
They sound based for being shortkings with ai girlfriends tho

They're abhumans, which are not mutants. Abhumans are generally considered human as long as the strain is stable, such as ogryn or ratlings.
Also ask the Interex how that went for them. Spoilers is was awesome till the Imperium slaughtered them all for being nasty little xeno frickers.

They're pretty recent to the setting. My understanding is that they're like any of the other abhumans like ogryn, they've just been doing their own thing separate from the rest of humanity for so long that they're qualified as xenos now.

Yes, Krieg regiment of the Imperial Guard. They resemble WWI German soldiers but they aren't any more racist than the rest of the Imperium. Their entire point is to die horribly and in massive numbers. Considering that's also the point of the Guard, that makes a strong point.

I've seen art of them and they're cool. I'm not a fan of warhammer generally but space ww1 is neat.

There's a story about them where they ask the commissar if they can go do some maneuver during a battle, and he's like “uh no you'll all die?”. And they're utterly bewildered and confused as to why this is a bad thing and they disobey him and go do it anyway.
Commissars usually are the ones shooting their own men.
It's a neat example of how the entire setting is just reduction to the absurd. Even in an army of people who are destined to die horribly, these people stand out.

The background to Krieg is basically that in the distant past, the planet was a giant dystopian "hiveworld" (mega city) whose leaders rebelled. The rebels were winning and the last few loyalists said frick this and pressed the "nuke every major city" button and turned the planet into a heck hole. Since then every Krieger has to die as a matter of honor to make up for the rebellion, so theyre all suicidal. That also explains the gas masks since going outside without them is instant death

Yeah their planet had a thousand-year long civil war (it was trying to secede from the Imperium because the Imperium is evil) so literally every last one of them was a child soldier and their culture has no values except dying valiantly.

How do they reproduce quickly enough to deal with that?

Realistically they couldn't, but Warhammer prioritizes being metal over being realistic.

It depends on the story. In some stories they're barely-human robots who aren't necessarily suicidal
but don't care about casualties if they think 
they'll achieve their goal, in some stories they're insane 
death 
cultists who obsess over martyrdom, in some they're normal 
dudes who are really 
duty-focused and live minimalist 
lifestyles, in some they're generic Guardsmen.
They're basically the male equivalent of the Sisters of Battle
in a lot of ways.

I don't think I'd ever play the game but are there any novels about them? I'm actually a bit interested.

Dead Men Walking is probably the best known one, it's very much in the “barely human robots” territory. There's a Ciaphas Caine story (Flashman in space but less grimdark) with them but I can't recall which one, it's more “normal dudes who live and breathe Army” style.
