Synopsis

A Sabbat Crusade story

When their latest assault grinds to a halt, the Royal Volpone 50th are given support – by an elite Militarum Tempestus unit. Can these two arrogant forces put aside their differences and win the war?

READ IT BECAUSE
Any Gaunt's Ghosts fan knows the Volpone are arrogant and elitist – so seeing them butt heads with the true elite of the Astra Militarum is always going to be fun.

THE STORY
The year is 774.M41, and on the world of Lotun, the Royal Volpone 50th are at war. One of the most storied Astra Militarum regiments fighting in the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, the Volpone are glory hounds and elitists, believing themselves better than other units… but they're also highly skilled and hard fighters, with a roll of victory to match. As the Crusade grinds acros Lotun, the Volpone are stuck. To aid them in their latest assault, they have allies: the First Sons, a unit of the Militarum Tempestus. How will the Volpone fare when they're alongside the real best of the best? And can their pride survive?
