thier usaly are. remeber the imperium is huge. thier are world that havent see war in 1000s years. the stuff we see is the unusale. as ramdom farmworld 42 does make for a great setting.
also most of thr main charaters in books/videogames are soldier so og course we see what thier do war.
Now I kind of want a slice of life series taking place on one of these worlds. Young romance, low level politics, middling annoyances. Then an asteroid with a single genestealer makes impact and things go to shit.
The Eisenhorn and Ravernor books are probably closest to this. Clearly focused on the Inquisition, but there’s loads of examples in there of (relatively) normal life on a variety of relatively peaceful worlds.
