THE STORY
The end is here.
The walls have crumbled, the gates are sundered, and the defenders lie broken. This is the endgame: the final reckoning. After seven grueling years of civil war, the Warmaster stands poised to claim ultimate victory. Once the Emperor's cherished son, Horus Lupercal has returned to slay his father.

The Emperor's grand vision for humanity is in ruins—but not all is lost.
As the last day draws to a close, the Emperor rises one final time. Flanked by his Angel, his Praetorian, and his Captain, he marches forth to deliver a wrathful reprisal. Yet the odds are grim. The Warmaster’s foresight is unparalleled, his power unmatched, and Chaos teeters on the brink of ultimate triumph.
The end is here.
