The Shattered Imperium

The cataclysmic events of the Indomitus Crusade left the Imperium of Man in ruins, its once-mighty legions scattered and its worlds besieged by relentless enemies. In the wake of this devastating war, a new era dawns in Warhammer 40,000 - an era of darkness and despair.

Dark Imperium chronicles the aftermath of the Indomitus Crusade, a desperate attempt by the Primarch Roboute Guilliman to save the Imperium from the brink of destruction. Despite the valiant efforts of Guilliman and his Primaris Space Marines, the Imperium was unable to withstand the combined onslaught of the Death Guard, the Traitor Legion led by the Death Lord Mortarion.

The Death Guard Ascendant

The Death Guard, once the proud legion of the Primarch Mortarion, have become a terrifying force of corruption and decay. Now serving the Dark Gods of Chaos, they spread disease and despair wherever they tread. Their bodies, once encased in gleaming power armor, are now twisted and mutated, oozing with vile toxins and pestilence.

In Dark Imperium, the Death Guard emerge from the shadows, their ranks swollen by new recruits drawn to the allure of chaos. Led by Mortarion, the Death Lord, they seek to claim the galaxy for their dark masters.

Primaris Space Marines: A Beacon of Hope

Amidst the darkness, the Primaris Space Marines stand as a beacon of hope. Created by Guilliman using the lost technology of the Emperor himself, these genetically enhanced warriors are the finest the Imperium has to offer. Their armor is impervious to attack, their weapons are deadly, and their unwavering resolve is unmatched.

In Dark Imperium, the Primaris Space Marines prove their worth on countless battlefields, fighting tooth and nail against the encroaching hordes of Chaos. They are the Imperium's last line of defense, and their courage is all that stands between humanity and utter annihilation.

A Cosmic Struggle for Survival

Dark Imperium is a tale of epic conflict, where the fate of the Imperium hangs in the balance. The Primaris Space Marines, led by Guilliman, must confront the Death Guard and their daemonic allies in a desperate struggle for survival. As the battle rages, the very fabric of reality is torn asunder, and the powers of Chaos threaten to consume all.

Beyond the conflict between the Imperium and Chaos, Dark Imperium explores the wider implications of the Indomitus Crusade. The Imperium, once a shining beacon of civilization, is now a crumbling ruin, its people torn between fear and desperation. Cults and warlords rise up, seeking to exploit the chaos for their own gain.

A New Era of Darkness

Dark Imperium is a seminal chapter in the Warhammer 40,000 saga, a story that sets the stage for a new era of darkness and upheaval. With the Imperium on the brink of collapse, and Chaos ascending, the future of humanity hangs in the balance.

Dark Imperium is a must-read for any fan of Warhammer 40,000. It is a gripping tale of conflict, despair, and hope, set against the backdrop of a shattered galaxy. As the war between the Imperium and Chaos rages on, the fate of humanity remains uncertain. Will the Primaris Space Marines prevail, or will the Death Guard and their daemonic allies plunge the galaxy into an eternal night?
