From their unassailable polar stronghold, [[the Fang]], on the frozen death world of [[Fenris]], the [[Space Wolves]] cast off into the Sea of Stars seeking out Mankind’s most vicious enemies to defeat in glorious battle. Each Space Wolf is a warrior of legend whose heroic deeds are recorded in epic sagas. They are [[Space Marines]], the deadly creations of the Emperor and the genetic heirs of the [[Primarch]] [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]]. As the [[Imperium]] shudders under the weight of invasion, the Space Wolves are needed more than ever to drive back the endless hordes of piratical [[xenos]], foul [[warp]]-spawn and loathsome heretics.
