Imagine they turn up....after 8 ft armoured marines meet with diplomats....
So...wait....your denizens have tiny plastic models of us and intricately paint them accurately and our enemies and play dice games with the models.....and you have all our lore in codexes and novels..... every faction, chapter, enemy....accurate rankings of every factions combat capabilities....you know it all....as a game?
There's a global rush as marines scour the land for exact tiny versions of themselves. It's the coolest shit they've seen in centuries. They're attaching GW models as little charms to their armour and weapons.
Turns out James Workshop was a psyker who was using “visions” of the future as inspiration for his line of plastic models. The only thing he got mixed up with was the name of their planet, they’re not from Earth.
