THE STORY
Among the countless heroes of the Imperium, the Valkyrie pilots of Vagabond Squadron stand out as the best of the best — fearless, resourceful, and fiercely loyal. As part of the 901st Tactical Wing, they’ve earned a reputation for reckless bravery and unmatched flying skill. But when they’re sent to the embattled world of Kanai Tertius, to counter the full fury of an ork invasion, their mettle will be tested like never before.
With a raw recruit joining their ranks, growing dissent among Imperial commanders, and the orks gaining deadly air superiority, the Vagabonds are thrust into their most dangerous mission yet — one whose true purpose is known only to Squadron Leader Cassandra Elza. The outcome of the entire planetary campaign will hinge on their success… but this time, not everyone will make it back alive.
