The Horus Heresy chronicles the galaxy’s greatest civil war, as half of the Emperor’s Space Marine Legions turn traitor under Warmaster Horus. Loyalists and heretics clash across the stars, each Legion wielding unique doctrines, pride, and fury in a war that shatters the Imperium.
Warhammer: The Horus Heresy is a specialist wargame set 10,000 years before Warhammer 40,000, during the catastrophic civil war in which half the Space Marine Legions rebelled against the Emperor. It uses 28mm scale miniatures and a detailed ruleset focused on large-scale Legion warfare.
