The Imperium stands on the brink of annihilation, assailed from all sides by heretical warlords, daemon-summoning sorcerers, and insatiable xenos empires. The Great Rift cleaves the vast emptiness of the void, a gaping wound that runs through the heart of the Emperor's domain, from which madness and mutation pour forth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn every star system and on every planet, fiercer battles rage than ever before, as loyalists, traitors, and xenos tear reality itself apart in their war for supremacy. Every day the flames rise higher – this era is more terrible than any before, for among the stars there is no peace...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Book\u003cbr\u003eThis 280-page hardback book is an indispensable guide to Warhammer 40,000, containing everything you need to know to collect, build, paint, and play with Citadel miniatures in the darkness of the 41st Millennium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt includes an overview of all aspects of the Warhammer 40,000 hobby, core rules for fighting battles ranging from small skirmishes to massive pitched battles, and an extensive introduction to this rich, ravaged setting through gripping background information, stunning artwork and photographs, and an exciting look at each of the factions warring in the far future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHE WARHAMMER 40,000 HOBBY\u003cbr\u003eThe book begins with an introduction to this amazing hobby through its four pillars – collecting, building, painting, and playing. You will learn how to start your collection of Citadel miniatures, how other players build and paint their models, and receive suggestions for tools and guides to help you. You will also begin your journey as a commander with an explanation of how and why players engage in dynamic battles in Warhammer 40,000, an example battle report of a battle between two armies, and an explanation of the different ways to play – standalone Combat Patrols, competitive \"In Nomine Imperatoris\" games, and narrative Crusade campaigns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHE DARK IMPERIUM\u003cbr\u003eThis extensive background chapter provides an entry into the darkness of the 41st Millennium. This distant future is dominated by an oppressive and corrupt human Imperium, whose crumbling borders are defended by doomed heroes and which is threatened by internal and external dangers. Its history is marked by ignorance and slaughter and the laughter of bloodthirsty gods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first part of this guide is dedicated to the dying Imperium and the galaxy it clings to – the long-dead God-Emperor, sitting on his Golden Throne, the High Lords and the Adeptus bureaucracy who rule in his name, the fanatical Ecclesiarchy who preach the Imperial Creed, the secret Ordos of the all-seeing Inquisition, and the post-human Space Marines who fight battles no one else could endure. You will also learn about the hellish dimension known as the Warp, which is responsible for psychic mutations and the basis of interstellar travel, as well as the insane Gods of Chaos who rule over its infinite reaches, the blasphemous cults who serve them, and the Great Rift that cleaves realspace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso included is a double-sided map of the galaxy, highlighting important planets, systems, war zones, and warp storms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second half illuminates the history of the setting, from its legendary past to the apocalyptic conflicts of its present. You will find a chronicle of humanity's evolution from the Age of Terra through the Age of Technology to the Age of the Imperium. You will learn more about the superstitions that fuel the worship of lost technology and the fearful hatred of xenos and mutants within the Imperium, about the Great Crusade through which the Emperor sought to unite humanity, about the Horus Heresy that set the galaxy ablaze, and about the millennia of war and loss that shaped the Imperium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, you will enter the Era Indomitus – its beginning heralded by the emergence of the Great Rift, the birth of a new god of death, and the rebirth of the Primarch Roboute Guilliman. As the new Lord Regent's Indomitus Crusade strove to reunite the dying Imperium, a psychic awakening announced an Age of Witches, and Abaddon the Despoiler plagued the galaxy with the help of the daemonic demigod Vashtorr and his Arks of Omen. The return of Lion El'Jonson, the Emperor's First Primarch, only delays the onset of complete disaster – and with the reappearance of Hive Fleet Leviathan, the galaxy threatens to become little more than fodder for a xenos swarm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFACTIONS\u003cbr\u003eLearn about each of the factions warring in Warhammer 40,000 with detailed background information and a miniature gallery of their Combat Patrol. The assembled armies of the Imperium include the mighty Space Marine Chapters, the ranks of the Astra Militarum, the fanatical cults of the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Adepta Sororitas, and the golden guardians known as the Adeptus Custodes. The blasphemous powers of Chaos consist of ancient Traitor Legions and younger Heretic Astartes, as well as the otherworldly Chaos Daemons. Finally, the xenos threat ranges from the brutal Orks, the profit-driven conglomerates of the Leagues of Votann, and the expansionist T'au Empire to the ancient Aeldari and Drukhari, the deathless Necrons, and the ravenous Tyranids and their Genestealer Cults.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCORE RULES\u003cbr\u003eThe Core Rules for Warhammer 40,000 contain everything you need to know to fight magnificent battles in the war-torn galaxy of the 41st Millennium.
