Chaos Space Marines are genetically-enhanced transhumans who seek only to conquer, murder, and corrupt. Clad in baroque power armour and bedecked in macabre trophies and infernal iconography, Chaos Space Marines fight alongside grudging battle tanks, monstrous Daemon Engines, and teeming hordes of cultist thralls. Some are possessed by daemonic allies, others wield warp-tainted artefacts or resort to warp sorcery. No matter their appearance, they wage their Long War with ruthless brutality, murdering anyone who stands in the way of their ever-escalating war of vengeance, conquest, and apocalyptic violence.
The Codex: Chaos Space Marines is an essential work for building, painting, and fielding a collection of the Heretic Astartes in games of Warhammer 40,000. In this book, you'll find an infernal treasure trove of inspiring background material and images, along with the rules to wage your own galactic war with narrative Crusade campaigns or skirmish-sized Combat Patrol games, as well as many rules for balanced play. This grimoire is also filled with photos that bring to life the horror of facing this dreadful foe, as well as more detailed examples of individual miniatures.
