THE STORY

When Lucius Stilo awakens, pain and darkness are his companions. He is trapped alone in the confines of a silent Leman Russ Battle Tank, or at least almost alone. With him are the corpses of his crew, and over the vox his company commander reminds him of his training and his duty to the Astra Militarum and the God-Emperor. And then there are the savage greenskin enemies nearby… It's Lucius Stilo's first mission. It might well be his last.
