THE STORY

Once the finest shrine-city in the Maelstrom Zone and the crown jewel of Nymea, Saint Stanislava's Adoration is now a devastated ruin overrun by Chaos.

For two years, Imperial forces have fought to tear the Archenemy's grip from the planet, one battle at a time. Now, Adoration is the final obstacle standing between humanity and victory.

For Colonel Gabriel 'Venom' Velterson, commander of the 2002nd Cadian Mechanised Regiment, the campaign cannot end soon enough. His soldiers must endure the strange, toxic light of a mysterious blue star, relentless heretical broadcasts from a hijacked vox-network, Inquisitorial quarantines, and the reckless demands of Nymean commanders.

As the final assault approaches, Velterson may discover that the Archenemy is not his greatest threat.

Will the fall of Adoration bring victory, or will it mark the destruction of the regiment?
