Leading these hosts into battle are the mighty [[Aspiring Champion]]s - [[Space Marines]] who betrayed the [[Emperor]] ten thousand years ago during the [[Horus Heresy]]. These power hungry individuals have departed from their Legions to gather hosts of [[mutants]] and traitors, as they endeavor to carve out their own dominions in the Eye of Terror. However, when Abaddon leads a Black Crusade they will put aside their petty wars and rivalries for a common cause.
When engaging the Lost and the Damned, Imperial commanders will be assaulted by a tide of filth and blasphemy that attacks again and again, regardless of its losses, with seemingly inexhaustible numbers. Such a foe is unnerving to face, even for hardened veterans, and disease and madness precede the advancing hordes. These assailants can be by anything from shambling hordes of animated corpses, to [[Traitor Guardsmen]] still bearing Imperial insignia on their blood streaked armour.
