All wars against Orks end up being costly, and that’s with them on the offensive. It is hard to determine what lured the Orks to this world in particular, but lured they were in the largest Orkoid empire to ever exist in the galaxy. While not always known by that name, it has an incredible significance not just to the forces of humanity, but also to the Orks. We are starting today with the planet Armageddon. Keeping in the tradition of a three-part series on topics that give me juicy excuses to drown you all in more lore, this next segment will start off the ‘Battlefields of Legend’ series.

There’s so much detail in 40k lore that a bare summary seems so inadequate, but for new people this should be the right portion to get a feel for the history of the universe we enjoy our games in. This is meant to be an easy summary and introduction geared towards new players or people unfamiliar with the setting, but should still be an interesting read or fun refresher for those already familiar. Just as a reminder, in this series we will explore facets of the history and legends of the Grimdark. Also, be sure to check the Tactics Corner for more great articles! Hello 40k fans! Chris Morgan, Chief Librarian of the Forge the Narrative Podcast, is back from hiatus to drop some knowledge bombs again with the next Tomes of the Librarius article.
