Crusade of Fire presents a team campaign over the Corvus sub-sector after a long-isolating warpstorm subsides. Players can combine its system with Planetary Empires, sharing victories or pursuing personal glory as more worlds enter the struggle. The review outlines the studio campaign’s narrative and three additional modes: Burning Skies expands air combat, Arena of Death moves into Commorragh’s fighting pits, and Daemon Worlds subjects armies to unstable realities and possession.

Dan Harden reviews CL Werner’s first 40K novel through the misery of the slaves caught between Iron Warriors and invading Orks. Their viewpoint gives both armies frightening scale, while the clash of meticulous plans and unpredictable greenskin attacks steadily enrages the defenders. The review praises the book’s ability to make readers sympathise temporarily with cruel characters without softening the brutality of Castellax or its masters.

Adam reviews an audio drama in which Garro and Rubio investigate refugees from the betrayed Legions under the suspicious gaze of Custodian Khorarinn. Having once fled treachery himself, Garro must now judge others before their apparent guilt leads to a general condemnation. The review finds this reversal a strong test of his character and praises distinct voice performances, especially Varren, while questioning the vocal portrayal of a White Scar.
