The Twenty-First Legion

The galaxy burns. All living things cry out in agony. Despair and endless war are devouring the blazing galaxy. Nourished by boundless blood and skulls, the faltering Imperium of Man struggles into its forty-first millennium. It is an age of darkness and despair, but the Imperium has never simply stood by and accepted its fate. The mighty genetically enhanced warriors created by the Emperor's twelve sons, the Space Marines, lead humanity in counterattack after counterattack, silently protecting the double-headed eagle amid war and slaughter. This is a graveyard for cowards, humanity's proving ground, and the forge of true heroes. The purge of the Chaos Gods, their fanatical followers, and the treacherous xenos is humanity's eternal war.
