The World Eaters are ferocious transhuman warriors driven by a burning need to unleash violent savagery. Once a Legion loyal to the Emperor, they long ago followed their Daemon Primarch, Angron, into worship of the Chaos God Khorne. Clad in power armour corrupted with the iconography of their dark god and clasping chainblades, they hurl themselves at the enemy, hacking and dismembering in a killing frenzy.
Codex: World Eaters is a vital book for collectors who enjoy setting the chosen of Khorne upon an unsuspecting galaxy. This impressive tome is packed with blood-soaked artwork, dread background material, inspiring photography, and the rules you need to unleash your ferocious warriors in games of Warhammer 40,000. You'll find datasheets, Detachments, narrative Crusade rules, and a self-contained Combat Patrol section to help you fight tight, tactical games with your collection. This book will allow you to live out your worship of the Blood God no matter how you like to collect, paint, and play with your World Eaters.
