Transcript:

Parallel to our universe is a realm of psychic energy called the Warp. Here emotions and urges from the mortal races in realspace become sentient beings, like daemons or the Chaos Gods Khorne, Tzeentch, and Nurgle.

But in realspace, the Eldar ruled for Millennia. Their unchallenged rule led to extravagance and a new Chaos God, Slaanesh Prince of Pleasure, was born. The psychic backlash wiped out most of the Eldar. So, the Emperor of Mankind launched his Great Crusade to reclaim the galaxy. Using vast psychic ability, he enabled his Space Marines to navigate the Warp, sidestepping faster-than-light travel, to distant planets. But the Chaos Gods orchestrated a deadly betrayal. His body decaying, the Emperor now sits on the Golden Throne neither dead nor alive, using the last of his psychic power so his Space Marines can continue their quest.

Both Mankind and the Eldar weakened, the war-mongering Orks grew to outnumber all other races. Engineered millennia ago only to battle, they swept across the galaxy fighting even themselves.

Pledge your allegiance. Follow Farseer Macha to fight Eldar extinction. Join Gabriel Angelos to bring order as the Imperium. Or follow Gorgutz 'Ead'unter because you like junk machines and things that go WAAAGH. Choose quickly, because there's this Spear of Khaine on Acheron and everyone's gonna want one.

Have fun!
