While the game does have a handful of factions that aren’t part of the Legiones Astartes, to use their fancy name, the Space Marines are the stars of the show. As the poster boys for Warhammer 40,000, GW’s most popular game, they’re almost as ubiquitous as the Warhammer brand itself.Īll this means that there is a good chance that you’re already primed to have strong feelings about the (take a deep breath) Warhammer: The Horus Heresy - Age of Darkness boxed set due for release on June 18th.
Space Marines, eh? Love ‘em or hate ‘em, if you’re aware of Games Workshop’s tabletop miniatures games, or the ever expanding universe of novels, video games and merchandise that surrounds them, you can’t get away from them.
