When Cadia fell, a handful of Kasrkin did not. Veterans of the Fall follows the Tattershields — battered survivors led by the haunted, indomitable Sergeant Kostantin Taikon — as they hold a crumbling Imperial line against Chaos cultists and worse. It is grim, bleak, defiant Warhammer 40,000: little hope, no surrender, and courage that refuses to run out.
