 * sigh*

Look, let me give you a complete review of why it isn't going to work:

First of all, where did these Black Council CSM come from? Now unless their is someone else besides the Emperor making Space Marines, there is no way that an entire Legion could fall to Chaos and no one would at the very least realize they had been corrupted. Also the fact that you make it sound like they pick their teeth with Primarchs, beings who were created only to be second to the Emperor of Mankind himself, makes them a little overpowered.

Second, why is it always the Horus Heresy that gets changed? There are quite a few other turning points in the Warhammer 40k universe that could make for good ATs. Like what if the C'Tan and Necrontyr actually defeated the Old Ones and Eldar during the War in Heaven? Or what if the Emperor failed to unite the warring factions of Terra during the Unification Wars? I realize the Horus Heresy is a really big turning point, but in every AT I've ever read it's always; what would happen if (insert situation here) occured during the Heresy.

Finally, listen man, I realize what your trying to do here. But the whole reason ATs where banned in the first place is in part because of ideas like yours. Now I'm not saying that you can't work on this idea, in fact you could create an entire sandbox for if you liked, but unless some miracle happens I highly doubt that the Admins are going bring back ATs.
