What is Warhammer Horus Heresy?

The Horus Heresy tabletop game is an immersive and epic experience set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, focusing on one of its most pivotal and dramatic periods – the civil war.

The game allows players to re-enact the legendary battles between the Emperor’s loyalist forces and the traitorous armies of Warmaster Horus. The very battles which created the extreme dystopian 41st millennium backdrop, which we know and love.

The Horus Heresy offers a rich narrative backdrop that enhances the strategic gameplay, making it more than just a war game; it’s a way to directly experience this critical period in the lore’s saga. One of the most compelling reasons to play the Horus Heresy is its focus on narrative-driven campaigns. Players aren’t just commanding armies, they’re telling stories, recreating key battles, and exploring the deep lore of the Warhammer universe. Each battle has the potential to shift the tide of the Heresy, giving players a personal stake in the outcome.

Why Should you play it?

Horus Heresy encourages players to field enormous armies, complete with powerful war machines and legendary characters. This scale adds a grandiose feel to the game, making every battle a spectacle. The inclusion of powerful heroes like Primarchs brings an additional layer of strategy and excitement. These battles feel truly monumental, capturing the essence of the galaxy-spanning conflict at the heart of the Horus Heresy.

Playing the Horus Heresy is a fantastic way to connect with a community of like-minded enthusiasts. The game has a passionate player base that appreciates both the tactical depth and the rich backdrop. Whether you’re a long-time fan of Warhammer 40K or new to the universe, the Horus Heresy offers a welcoming and engaging environment to explore your love for strategic gameplay and storytelling.

We have kicked off a new Horus Heresy campaign in September this year please contact Richard if you would like to get involved.
