Alright, fellow war strategists, get ready for a jaw-dropping experience with Legions Imperialis – the battlefield where colossal war machines make everything else look like pewter figurines. But hold on to your bolters because we’re about to dive into “The Great Slaughter,” the primo supplement that’s about to drop and shake up your Legions Astartes and Solar Auxilia armies.
The book includes 50+ pages of lore, maps, and illustrations that thrust you into the epic battles of Beta-Garmon. We’re talking about Nyrcon City, legendary showdowns, and the brink of Titandeath – it’s the stuff of Horus Heresy legend.
Now, what’s a good supplement without some new rules, right? “The Great Slaughter” is packing Formations and Detachments for both the good guys and the chaos-loving foes. Vanguard Detachments are all about speed and firepower, giving you Outriders, Land Speeders, and Scimitar Jetbikes, paired with optional light armor and air support to spice up those flanks.
Drop Pod Assaults are back, and they’re not messing around. Slamming powerful infantry into the heart of the action with lethal Deathstorm Drop Pod batteries – it’s a cinematic explosion waiting to happen. And hey, Solar Auxilia is getting some love too, with Artillery Company, Mechanised Infantry Sub-cohort, and Super-heavy Company Formations. They’ll need every bit of it against the towering threats in Beta-Garmon.
Now, the real game-changer – a campaign system that turns your Legions Imperialis games into epic sagas. Warfront campaigns, Conquest Campaigns, mixing them up for longer stories – it’s like being the general of your mini galactic war.
But wait, there’s more! Brace yourselves for Titandeath – a game mode that tosses entire maniples of Titans and Knights into city-levelling clashes. We’re talking 6,000-point forces of god-engines going head-to-head. Legendary Titans might get wiped off the field, and you’ll need tactical finesse to navigate through terrain that’s less forgiving than a vindictive Warp portal.
Thinking of bringing your Adeptus Titanicus buddies into the mix? Titandeath battles are your golden ticket. Or maybe you’re eyeing those stunning small-scale Titan miniatures? Now’s the time to expand your roster and witness battles that’ll leave you saying, “I was there when Titans clashed!”
So, mark your calendars, pre-orders for “The Great Slaughter” are dropping soon. Get ready to unleash the apocalypse and let the galaxy-shaking battles begin!
