| In the nightmare future of
the 41st millennium, Mankind teeters upon the
brink of extinction. The galaxy-spanning Imperium
of Man is beset on all sides by ravening aliens,
and threatened from within by malevolent creatures
and heretic rebels. Only the strength of the
Immortal Emperor of Terra stands between Humanity
and its annihilation. Dedicated to His service
are the countless warriors, agents and myriad
servants of the Imperium. Foremost amongst them
stand the Space Marines, mentally and physically
engineered to be the supreme fighting force,
the ultimate protectors of Mankind. Wars
rage over airless moons, in the dark, twisted
depths of hive worlds and in the cold wastes
between stars. From the immaterial realm of
warp space, malicious entities send their
unspeakable minions to slaughter the Emperor's
chosen. Everywhere, soulless spectres and
slavering monsters are poised to extinguish
the life of Humanity.
