Warhammer 30,000

Horus Heresy:
Nemesis

After setting Garro up for eternal fame in Flight of the Eisenstein, James Swallow (of Blood Angels novels fame & Faith&Fire) takes on a new challenge - putting a human story and face to the up-till-now faceless Officio Assasinorum.

From political intrigue, to sibling loss, set amidst the great story arc of 10,000 years past, James Swallow has brought it all into a slightly bulgy, but just still believable story set in the reality of the 31st millennium. Assassin operatives are not created from nothing (ok, so not absolutely the truth here); they are given names, motivations, and set up in an "Execution Force" to deal with... well, who else?! The high heretic himself whose name the heresy was born with!

The advance is inexorable, implacable, and impossible to stop.

Warhammer: Fantasy Battles 8th Edition arrives on our shores on July 10th.

 Excerpt from the book:

 Prepare thyself for battle, steel yourself for slaughter and war-unending. The champions of the Warhammer world are calling; the grand muster is upon us for this is a dark age, a bloody age, an age of war. Behold the Game of Fantasy Battles.

The Warhammer rulebook is a massive 528-page full colour hardback book. Within its covers the book is divided into four mighty sections. The Rules tell you how to field your army on the tabletop; the Warhammer World delves deep into the background; the Miniatures Showcase is page after page of gloriously painted models; and Warhammer Battles explores the depth and breadth of the hobby.

 And don't forge to look out for the rest of the shiny toys Games Workshop have decided to release. No more arguments about flexible tape measures with the Engineer's set!
