• Lore behind the event

  On the East fringe of the galaxy the distress signal of the Warmaster and the Emperor have reached all the legions with their presence demanded back on Terra for the final battle.

  As you and your legion race towards the distress signal the Warp has other plans. The fickle beast that is travelling through the Warp has thrown all forces off course. Crashed on scattered planets in an unknown section of the system. Legions gather to gain information of their location but also who knows who is friend and who is foe. 

  Along with unknown location the warp has also disrupted communication between legion making it unclear who is loyalist and who is traitor.  Will you gather the key objectives to gain information to escape the grips of the warp and join the Race to Terra.
