What many think the Space Wolves do, but they're actually more tactically smart than other Imperials tend to assume. Part E: The Beheading Arya Stark, 29.08.300AAC, Winterfell SystemArya Stark enjoys talking to her newly met cousin Visenya, asking her to teach her how to pilot a starfighter - and Visenya is also enjoying her time with the cousins she has never met. Eddard asks Arya to return to her lessons, as he needs to speak with the twins. In the end, peace turns out to be far costlier for the Targaryens than what it appears. Neither the North, the Vale nor the rebel River systems still fighting suffers punishment. Braavos manages to take young Daenerys Targaryen as a hostage. The few River systems occupied by the North that they are forced to give up are nonetheless infiltrated economically by Northern agents. But peace is made. Samwell Tarly, 09.07.300AAC, Horn Hill SystemThe Lord of Horn Hill, a shy fat young man whose interests are far from the norm in Westeros, learns to his dismay that (at the behest of the Queen of Thorns) he is to marry Asha Greyjoy, who has a reputation of killing the men she is to marry before the bedding happens. However, his mother, Melessa Tarly, tells him that not marrying Asha will bring unpleasant consequences for House Tarly, and that the wedding must take place in a month.
The secret facilities on Titan, future headquarters of the Inquisition and the Grey Knights, are used to contain individuals of special interest, such as former associates of the Traitor Primarchs. Part B: Dangerous Women Lady Asha Greyjoy, 10.08.300AAC, Horn Hill System Asha Greyjoy, as her handmaidens are preparing her for her wedding to Samwell Tarly, reminisces about her first two weddings, one to an old man she poisoned the night before the wedding and the second to an Ironborn-hating war veteran who was killed by his servants after she convinced them to do it during the wedding banquet. After being dressed, she meets her future goodmother, Melessa Tarly, who warns Asha against trying to kill Sam before she points out Asha could have had it a lot worse. Upon meeting Sam, the two internally consider that the marriage may not be so bad, after all. Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: For some reason the cover artist made Horus look like Tony Soprano (which is surprisingly fitting if you think about it).
Emperor’s Children Relics
The Conspiracy: The Cabal is an ancient, nebulous organisation of xenos who work to undermine Chaos. Their current goal is to tip the war in Horus' favour so that his side wins but Horus himself destroys humanity out of guilt, depriving Chaos of the emotions humanity provides. They operate in secrecy, having employed human Perpetuals to perform specific actions from spying to assassination during most of human history, and as a result precious few are aware that they even exist. The Laeran Temple, the entirety of the Furious Abyss, the Eldar, etc. Many places highly connected to the warp being to take on strange architecture and defy logic, reflecting the inherent madness of the warp. In Deliverance Lost, the Raven Guard convert one of their strongholds, which is situated in the middle of a radioactive wasteland on the forge world of Kiavahr (which Deliverance orbits), into a facility where they develop their new Legionaries - the Raptors, using the Emperor's own gene-tech. However, Alpha Legion agents infiltrate the facility and foil the project.
Ser Bastian Cave, 04.10.300AAC, King’s Landing SystemThe bombardment of Quadrant 4 stops as the troops sworn to Aegon begin to make their landings. Ser Bastian Cave leads the army in the region leads an assault on the landing armies amidst the completely disproportionate destruction of the cities that existed in the place. The initial assault goes well for the defenders, but Aegon's armies soon prove themselves to be greater in numbers, and Cave's army is overwhelmed as he dies when his tank is destroyed. Played straight when Horus gets hit in the arm by an Interex and pulls it out casually. Justified as he's a Primarch, and absurdly hard to harm. The Cavalry: During the Siege of Terra, the loyalists' hope is to hold until Roboute Guilliman and Lion El'Jonson arrive with their Legion to crush the traitors from behind. Alas the interior wall is breached before the loyalists can arrive, which will lead to the Emperor teleporting aboard the Vengeful Spirit.Sparrow Secret Base, 01.08.300AAC, Appleton Harvest SystemIn the Sparrow's secret base, the seven men and women that form the leadership of the Seven Sparrows decide to continue their campaign against the Targaryens. This chilling compilation of tales covering arguably the downright nastiest gang of Chaos Space Marines is now coming out in French. Collecting three novels by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, this book follows a warband of bat-helmed maniacs guided by visions from the prophet Talos. You almost start to feel sorry for this sorry band of superhuman misfits. Almost… Animorphism: Some Space Wolves "fall" and become Wulfen, who are essentially werewolves. Psyker and daemon abilities can force this change on a Space Wolf. Stannis Baratheon, 08.07.300AAC, Storm’s End SystemMuch to his displeasure, the Lord of Storm's End is forced to receive a group of young heirs from the Storm and Reach sectors - a group that includes Rhaegar Connington (Jon Connington's heir), Loras Tyrell and, most distressing, Renly Baratheon. When asked about the reason the group is there, Rhaegar tells Stannis that they believe Viserys is plotting against Aegon. However, when Stannis (who is himself plotting his own rebellion) asks them for proof, they are unable to show any, and Stannis has them escorted out of the room. Having seen how Renly is clearly choosing the Tyrells over his family, Stannis decides he cannot give a damn about what may happen to Renly now.
Combat Pragmatist: Loken, when challenged to a sparring match by Lucius, starts and finishes it by grabbing his sword arm and punching him in the face. He warned Lucius that the match wouldn't just be about the sword. Bear Hug: To the surprise of everyone, Lion El'Jonson gives Guilliman one when they meet on Macragge. Absurdly-Spacious Sewer: The sewer system of Sothopolis is so huge that three Astartes can walk arm to arm without difficulty and still have space for people to hide out of their view. The POV character lampshades it, then points out that the system is planned out for the much bigger city that Sothopolis is going to become. All Just a Dream: Corvus rescuing Vulkan in Vulkan Lives turns out to be a dream/illusion inflicted on the latter by Curze's psykers as part of the torture.
Emperor’s Children Boarding Action Rules
Wyman brings with him two children: the eldest, Joanna Snow, Eddard's bastard daughter with Ashara Dayne - now deceased in mysterious circumstances - and Baela, one of the twin daughters conceived when Rhaegar raped Lyanna Stark, twins legitimized as Targaryen because Rhaegar has falsely claimed Lyanna married him. Part C: Goldcloaks at War Janos Slynt, 12.08.283AAC, King's Landing System Janos Slynt, one of the millions of Goldcloaks pressed into battle, awakens in the aftermath of a battle that has killed most of his squad, save for a man that soon deserts and himself. The Gold Fists, the elite unit of the Goldcloaks, arrives, and Slynt joins a group of surviving Goldcloaks trailing behind them. A sniper kills several of them, forcing the group to stop until the Gold Fists manage to shoot up his hideaway. Advancing towards the Red Keep, assaulting its main gates proves to be impossible, as its defences are too strong. The Goldcloaks kill a Gold Fist officer who has just brutally murdered a gravely injured Goldcloak. Seeing that they cannot spend more time at it, Rhaegar's supporters call in a Behemoth, a huge, heavily armored and armed mecha that destroys the Red Keep's Gate in one shot, allowing the Gold Fists and Goldcloaks to assault the interior of the keep. Doom has come upon the Thousand Sons. Born from the Rubric, a curse of fire and dust stalks them across time and space. The spirits of the Rubricae are vanishing from the prisons of their armour in the fourth novel in John French’s Ahriman series. Averted, in a prime example of how Tzeentch's plans always "fail," yet end up benefiting his power-base anyway. It was supposed to be a Mutual Kill, yet he ended up recruiting the Thousand Sons (which it probably planned for also), and both Legions survived.
Combat by Champion: Used to settle inter-Legion disputes in extremis during the Crusade and after the Heresy. Sigismund and Alajos converse during one such disagreement, anticipating that they will be designated champions for their respective Legions. The Daemons Kyriss and Ka'Bandha use an artefact known as the Ragefire which amplifies the bloodlust of the Blood Angels because it is fueled by a fallen Blood Angel. It nearly corrupts the entire Legion, but Apothecary Meros destroys the artefact, allowing himself to be consumed by it but saving the Blood Angels. Sons of the Emperor, a limited-edition compilation of short stories originally distributed during the 2018 Horus Heresy Weekender convention. In The End and the Death: Volume 1, Horus lists off the daemon forces in his service. Alongside the usual suspects such as Skarbrand, N'Kari and so on along with other Daemons from the Heresy, there's a veritable storm of names from other 40k works including Ulkair, Ghargatuloth, Abraxes, M'kar, and Ax'senaea.Part A: The Dragon's Victory Lord Varys Tivario, 15.05.290AAC, Lannisport SystemKing Rhaegar, the Hand of the King Walther Whent, the main nobles of the Seven Sectors - barring representatives from the North and Dorne - meet in Lannisport to determine the future of the Iron Sector. The title of Lord Paramount is passed to Rodrik Harlaw, the young heirs of every house will become hostages, the cult of the Void God is banned and, most importantly, all the systems that form the Iron Sector will be occupied militarily - with the Beast becoming Tyrant-General of Great Wyk - and the Iron Sector will be forced to pay incredibly heavy reparations. Lord Richard Lonmouth, 18.05.290AAC, Lannisport SystemThe people of Lannisport celebrate the end of the Greyjoy Rebellion - and have been for two days already. Richard Lonmouth witnesses a parade, while he and Ser Justin Massey talk about the changes in the Small Council: Monford Velaryon has replaced his cousin Lucerys as High Admiral, Ser Arthur Dayne has been appointed the new Lord Commander of the Kingsguard and Garth Tyrell has been dismissed, the position temporarily taken by some minor bureaucrat called Baelish. The captured Ironborn soldiers are forced to march in the parade and humiliated, and Rhaegar names his new Kingsguards. Conscription: In Terra, the defense is getting so desperate that civilians have to be drafted to be the first line of defense on the ground, as other more "precious" troops would be wasted manning the outer walls. Part B: Indigest Meal Lord Richard Lonmouth, 12.08.283AAC, King's Landing SystemIn a restaurant on King's Landing's orbit, several admirals meet to enjoy a lunch and discuss the upcoming Operation Downfall away from potential spies. Lord Lucerys Velaryon, High Admiral of the Royal Fleet, lets it be known that Downfall will begin in forty hours, much sooner than what the others expected, as, with the Rebels refusing Rhaegar's proposed cease-fire and peace offers, Aerys being removed may allow negotiations to take place. Suddenly, a nuclear explosion takes place in orbit, destroying multiple spaceships and space stations - most important of all, Dragon One, King's Landing's main defence station. Jon Connington and Manly Stokeworth appear then, along with Ser Alliser Thorne, who reveals that the former two have just started Downfall, as Elia Martell was behind the robbery of Stokeworth's bomb that has just exploded. Connington has managed to secure most of the Royal Family save for Aerys - who is still in the Red Keep - and Rhaenys - who has been taken away. Most of the admirals decide to ignore Connington and lead the efforts to rescue those affected by the explosion. Part B: Silent Screams Ser Jaime Lannister, 07.04.290AAC, Pyke SystemJaime Lannister is forced to act as 'babysitter' to the young nobles present at the battle while he listens to the space combat. The space fighters, led by Kingsguard Jon Bulwer, leads the first wave, which suffers heavily from a missile strike. The Ironborn send their own fighters, and Bulwer dies in the fight. The first wave targets a shipyard and destroys it.
