Even before the gloomy darkness of the 41st millennium came true there was a time of myths and legends, where almost divine beings faced off in an epic battle, which pitted brother against his own brother. Let us take you back to the 31st millennium, when a golden age was shattered by betrayal, and degenerated into the greatest battle of all time.Welcome to Horus Heresy, an epic board game for two players set in the bleak future of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the main setting of the Games Workshop. One of the players will take on the role of the God Emperor of Sacred Earth and will stand as the last bastion of hope for the future of Mankind. The other player will assume the guise of the Warlord Horus, once the most loved and trusted of his descendants, now with no hope of redemption and sanity, transformed and rendered unrecognizable by the insidious touch of Chaos. Both players will lead their vast legions in bloody battles on the devastated surface of the Earth, the birthplace of Mankind. Will Horus succeed in his profane mission to crush the Imperium, drowning the galaxy in the flow of Chaos and destruction, or will the determined Holy Emperor of Humanity succeed in breaking the bloody siege, attacking the cruel machinations of the Pernicious Powers of Warp? Brother fights brother, and the fate of the entire universe hangs in the balance!
