Mighty heroes battle for the right to rule the galaxy. The vast armies of the Emperor of
Earth have conquered the galaxy in a Great Crusade – the myriad alien races have
been smashed by the Emperor’s elite warriors and wiped from the face of history.
The dawn of a new age of supremacy for humanity beckons.
Gleaming citadels of marble and gold celebrate the many victories of the Emperor.
Triumphs are raised on a million worlds to record the epic deeds of his most powerful
and deadly warriors.
First and foremost amongst these are the primarchs, superheroic beings who have led
the Emperor’s armies of Space Marines in victory after victory. They are unstoppable
and magnificent, the pinnacle of the Emperor’s genetic experimentation. The Space
Marines are the mightiest human warriors the galaxy has ever known, each capable of
besting a hundred normal men or more in combat.
Organised into vast armies of tens of thousands called Legions, the Space Marines and
their primarch leaders conquer the galaxy in the name of the Emperor.
Chief amongst the primarchs is Horus, called the Glorious, the Brightest Star,
favourite of the Emperor, and like a son unto him. He is the Warmaster, the
commander-in-chief of the Emperor’s military might, subjugator of a thousand
thousand worlds and conqueror of the galaxy. He is a warrior without peer, a
diplomat supreme.
As the flames of war spread through the Imperium, mankind’s champions will all be
put to the ultimate test.
Horus sends the Worldbearer space marines to the planet Calth, where they are to ambush the loyalist Ultramarines. In addition to the main fleet, Horus sends a new doomsday battleship for use againsy the Ultramarines home world of Ultramar. A small strike force travels space and the warp to delay or destroy the doomsday ship to save the Ultramarines.
