Warhammer: The Horus Heresy is a tabletop strategy game set in a universe where a civil war has engulfed the galaxy. The Warmaster of the Emperor’s armies has rebelled, causing half of the eighteen great Space Marine Legions to side with him, while the rest remain loyal to the Emperor. This conflict, known as the Horus Heresy, forms the foundation of Warhammer 40,000’s rich history.

In this game, players command armies of superhuman warriors in epic tabletop battles. Players can choose their preferred Legion, assemble their own army from a range of Citadel and Forge World miniatures, and engage in wargames of significant tactical depth.
