An Astra Militarum Novel


Cadia. This proud world stood defiant for centuries – a bulwark against the forces of Chaos residing in the Eye of Terror. All of this would change when it was targeted for destruction by Abaddon the Despoiler as part of his Thirteenth Black Crusade.


READ IT BECAUSE


The Fall of Cadia is a touchstone moment of the Warhammer 40,000 timeline. This incredible battle led to the opening of the Great Rift and ushered in a grim new era in which even greater threats assailed the Imperium.


THE STORY


Cadia licks its wounds in the wake of the Thirteenth Black Crusade. The heretic forces retreat on all fronts. The day is won. But Lord Castellan Creed cannot rest easy. Something tells him the assault was a mere prelude to something greater, something more final. He is right. Out of the Eye of Terror comes Abaddon the Despoiler, at the head of a warhost unmatched in scale since the dread days of the Horus Heresy.


In the face of the looming apocalypse, Creed must weld the champions of Cadia into a bulwark capable of withstanding Abaddon’s fury. And in orbit, the Despoiler himself finds his own alliance teetering on a knife edge…


This is a tale told at epic scale, from the tables of high command to the slaughter of the pylon fields, and with a huge cast of characters from self-styled demigods to the rank-and-file foot soldiers of the Imperium.


This is the story of Abaddon’s greatest conquest. This is Cadia’s last stand.

FLESH-EATER COURTS: JERRION'S DELEGATION

Key Features Contains 27 plastic Citadel miniatures, including the new Marrowscroll Herald A full Regiment of Renown to ally to certain Grand Alliance Death armies Add a Hero and their followers to your Flesh-eater Courts army, and save money compared to buying individually Marrowscroll Heralds are senior delegates of their vampiric masters, sent to deliver entreaties – in the form of bloodied offerings and infectious madness – to the leaders of other nations and enlist their aid in the name of a "noble" cause. To lend legitimacy and ceremony, they often march at the head of a coterie of loyal warriors – or rather, a pack of slavering ghouls. This Regiment of Renown is led by a Marrowscroll Herald – a sinister Hero available for the first time in this box – accompanied by Crypt Ghouls, Crypt Horrors, and Crypt Flayers. The box contains all the models you need to field Jerrion’s Delegation, whose Regiment of Renown rules and warscrolls are found in Dawnbringers: Harbingers. It's also an excellent way to bolster your existing Flesh-eater Courts collection and save money compared to buying the individual kits. This set contains:- 1x Marrowscroll Herald- 3x Crypt Flayers, which can alternatively be built as Crypt Horrors or Vargheists- 3x Crypt Horrors, which can alternatively be built as Crypt Flayers or Vargheists- 20x Crypt Ghouls The miniatures in this set are supplied with the appropriate bases and come unassembled and unpainted – we recommended using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints. If your army has a Death general but is not a Flesh-eater Courts army, you can include this Regiment of Renown – even if its points value exceeds the amount allowed for allied units. Alternatively, the models in this kit can also fulfil their standard battlefield roles in a Flesh-eater Courts army, but will not benefit from the Regiment of Renown rules.
