<br />

Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the daemon-infested miasma of the Warp, the only route between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomican, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor's will. Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus Astartes, the [[Space Marine|Space Marines]], bio-engineered super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the [[Redshirt Army|Imperial Guard]] and countless planetary defence forces, the ever vigilant [[State Sec|Inquisition]] and the tech-priests of the [[Machine Worship|Adeptus Mechanicus]] to name only a few. But for all their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and [[Eldritch Abomination|worse.]]<br />

[[Crapsack World|To be a man in such times is to be]] [[A Million Is a Statistic|one amongst untold billions]]. It is to live in [[Dystopia|the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable]]. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim darkness of the far future [[Hopeless War|there is only war]]. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and [[God Is Evil|the laughter of thirsting gods.]]"]]''''' <ref>Now to lighten the mood!
