In the shadowed corners of the galaxy, where whispered secrets spark insurrections, a defining clash is set to erupt. Welcome to another captivating Warhammer 40k Battle Report, meticulously crafted by Vanguard Tactics.
On a forlorn battlefield, a place bearing scars from countless forgotten skirmishes, Stephen mobilises the subterranean menace of the Genestealer Cults, their psychic murmurs sowing discord and rebellion. Opposing him, Chris stands resolute with the golden guardians of Terra, the Adeptus Custodes. As Chris marshals the Emperor’s chosen, wielding gleaming halberds and sentinel blades, will Stephen’s insidious schemes and the Cult’s guerilla tactics unbalance these paragons of loyalty?
