How much does he accomplish?

He's an imperial so enough to make him look important/badass but not enough to change the setting at large.

He attempts to conquer the Tau to extreme effect, but dies when a Kroot mercenary learns Thrawn has been lying to him all this time about some vital issue concerning honor.
It was so artistically done, too.

I just said imperial because imperium. Slip of the tongue.
Bentley Phillips
Nothing because he isn't canon anymore :^)
Eli Campbell
But he is though.
Hunter Evans
Not true.
He's canon now. Nice try though.

He's back in Nu canon
I'm guessing most of the "backstory" stuff (i.e. all the stuff that doesn't conflict with Disney churning out new sequels) is gonna be put back in sooner or later since most of the writers are the same guys and gals who compiled a fair amount of the old EU to begin with

Order 66 against SM.

Does Thrawn bait always work?
Anthony Sanders
He quickly befriends Creed, putting him in charge of the Imperial Guard while Thrawn retains direct command of the Navy.
Within a few decades Space Marines become a purely anti-Chaos force, because Chaos is the one faction whose art and culture Thrawn cannot safely analyze.

Do orks have art? Other than the art of war I mean.

As if the IoM will ever let a xenos command a ship, let alone a fleet.

What Thrawn excels at is real politik and reading his opponent. He'd be very good for the job but wouldn't panacea the setting. He'd probably make it his life's work to gut and reconstruct the Imperial Administratum
He would either be the Eldar's greatest enemy or ally, depending on the day of the week
Ork's have art and 'kulture' but these actually are studied and understood by Imperials, it doesn't change the fact that Orks generally are a threat by sheer persistence and numbers. He could greatly reduce the resources spent on them, but not fully eliminate the problem.
The Tau he would quite viciously thrash, or at least end the Imperium's streak of jobbing to them
He'd be a rebel systems worst nightmare
Studying Chaos "art" is a good way to have tentacles burst out of your eye sockets.

The Only Successful Art Major In Reality Or Fiction stops being that, because in the 40k setting looking at alien art will probably drive you mad.
Colton Taylor
>chaos art
He'd probably have little bits of chaotic arts all over his walls when he has to meet with someone, to keep unnaturally worried and on the edge.

In a battle of plot armour...

....that actually sounds like something he'd do. Hell some of the Inquisition probably do the same.
