Description
The Adeptus Custodes are duty-bound and beyond corruption. They are remorseless and ever-vigilant, and their sense of loyalty to the Emperor is unhindered by ambition or compassion.
This is a set of 16 six-sided dice with squared edges for use in games of Warhammer 40,000, themed around the Adeptus Custodes. They are cast in black acrylic with gold ink markings, and measure 16mm along each edge. The 1-5 facings are traditionally pipped, and each '6' face is decorated with the icon of the Adeptus Custodes.
These themed dice are only available while stocks last.
A Warhammer 40,000 Novel
Cerastes, Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers, is bowed but not broken. He returns to finish what he started – converting a holy Imperial world to the worship of Chaos.
READ IT BECAUSE
David Annandale brings back Cerastes, star of his short story Sacred Hate, and this time he's filled with righteous vengeance. But has he taken on more than he can handle as he contends with the hated Adepta Sororitas of the Order of the Thorn?
THE STORY
Legitur is a world devoted to the sacred writings of the Imperial Creed. Endlessly producing mountains of scripture, it considers itself an exemplar of piety. But there are deep secrets here – undreamt of by the ruling Ecclesiarchy, hidden amongst the shadows of the towering paper hives – and one being who was born of these secrets.
Cerastes, Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers, has returned to the world he once called home. Though his host has been crushed by the fearsome Palatine Aesura and her Sororitas of the Order of the Thorn, Cerastes’ dark ambition is undaunted. He will have his revenge. He will resurrect the Eightfold Bane. And he will convert the world he despises to the worship of Chaos. Legitur is about to receive the Word, and it will burn with the fires of revolution.
Written by David Annandale.
A Horus Heresy Novel
Horus has revealed his dark plans, but nobody is prepared for just how far he will go. The force sent to end the Warmaster's rebellion doesn't realise they are heading towards a slaughter unlike anything the galaxy has seen.
READ IT BECAUSE
It's the deepest exploration so far of one of the most horrific battles of the Horus Heresy. You may know what happened during the Dropsite Massacre, but you don't know it all. It's far worse than you thought as the treachery is revealed.
THE STORY
Horus has rebelled against the Emperor by purging his and his brother’s Legions, but what was supposed to be a secret act of murder has been revealed. In the Emperor’s name, Rogal Dorn and Malcador the Sigillite dispatch the largest force of legionaries and primarchs ever assembled to end Horus’ rebellion before it can begin.
But the loyalists, on their way to enact vengeance, do not know the depth of the betrayal they face. They will not be the perpetrators of a massacre, but its victims. The last hope of returning to the Great Crusade and the unity of the Imperium will die in the dust of Isstvan V, and those who survive will live in a new age of darkness.
Written by John French.
The Adeptus Custodes shine with the last gleaming of the Emperor’s radiance. Clad in auramite, they were fashioned by the Master of Mankind as his advisors, emissaries, guardians, and champions. Now, they are an order in mourning, their tireless vigil a penance for allowing Him to fall to the arch traitor. The most important duty of the Custodes is to shield the Emperor on the Golden Throne, but in the desperate state of the galaxy, they travel the stars to smite any who would welcome the death of Humanity.
