Worlds of Warhammer: Ascended Gods

Phil follows deities whose origins lie in the world before the Mortal Realms, tracing their histories, worshippers and connections to particular realms. Their rivalries, mistakes and continuing ambitions make the pantheon an active source of alliances and conflict rather than a distant religious backdrop.

Index Astartes: None Shall Find Us Wanting

The Blood Ravens’ uncertain origins and powerful Librarians make their pursuit of knowledge both a source of strength and a cause for suspicion. Recruitment worlds, forgotten disasters and the Third Aurelian Crusade explain their present troubles, while Primaris technology offers new survival prospects and another secret to investigate.

Indomitus Crusade Fleets

Guilliman gathers the Imperium’s resources into vast fleets while repression and difficult strategic compromises protect the muster. An immense logistical organisation coordinates self-sufficient battlegroups, yet cultural blending, losses and the demands of war force them to evolve, while Torchbearers carry Primaris aid to isolated Chapters ahead of the wider crusade.
