Munitorum Report: Armageddon

April 2017·p. 12

THE SHORT VERSION

A compact history traces Armageddon from the secretly preserved world of Ullanor to Angron’s invasion and Ghazghkull’s two wars. Its sequence stresses the terrible human cost and the continuing destruction of the hive cities rather than presenting the planet’s survival as an uncomplicated success.
