==Description{{Fn|3}}==
For too long the [[Emperor’s Children]] have been denied their birthright. Their once-glorious [[Legion]] has been fractured into disparate [[warband]]s, condemned to ravage world after futile world in the pursuit of ambition and excess. But no longer.
Lord [[Fulgrim]] – ascended [[Primarch]] of the [[the III Legion]], the Perfect Son, the Emperor-in-Waiting – has issued a challenge to his scattered warriors: vanquish the [[Imperial]] world of [[Crucible (disambiguation)|Crucible]], and bring him the head of the [[Black Templar]] charged with its defence.
But Fulgrim’s plans go far beyond the conquest of a single planet, and what should have been a swift and bloody offensive turns into a gruelling siege. With success uncertain, a world in flames around them, and the Legion turning their weapons inwards as well as out, the would-be champions are forced to confront a bitter truth. What must they sacrifice for victory and the favour of their Primarch, and what will be left of them when the war is over?
