Chapter Approved (2017 Edition)
Across the battlefields of the 41st Millennium¸ vast armies clash in endless battle. Apocalyptic conflicts shake worlds to their bedrock¸ billions slain in mere hours amidst storms of fire and blades. Invading armies sweep down from the darkness of the void¸ and hurl themselves onto the guns of towering fortresses in search of victory no matter the cost. Crucial strategic assets and sacred sites are mired in gore as armies clash to possess them. Relic battle-tanks blast their enemies apart amidst venomous groves of predatory plant-life¸ while churning warp storms engulf entire worlds even as armies battle to the death across their blazing continents. From desperate last stands to heroic duels¸ finely balanced contests of strategy to blood-drenched campaigns that span a dozen battlefields¸ all of these tales of conquest and countless more are told time and again in this dark age of war.
