Campaign setting and rules

The campaign is set on the Eastern Fringe, west of the Voltoris system. Volitoris is the homeworld of the noble house Terryn and lies in a tranquil part of space, despite  its location close to both the Tau Empire and the encroaching Tyranid Hive Fleets.

 First battles focused around chaos incursions on the deserts on the planet Cerberus XIII, leadeing to open warfare between the Traitor Legion of the Word Bearers and their pawns and a joint force of house Terryn knights and scouting parties from no less than three Space Marine chapters - Fleshtearers, Crimson Fists and Space Wolves.

Xenos forces of the Harlequins have been seen playing both sides, for their own inscrutable reasons.
