A fanatical adherent of the Khorne faith, the World Eater Traitor Legion is made up of countless bands of warriors who slaughter across the galaxy in the name of the Blood God. They have taken countless skulls and wiped out hundreds of worlds to honor their bloody patron. The Eaters of Worlds are the descendants of the demon primarch Angron. Few powers in the galaxy share the boundless hatred and fury they draw upon in battle. Their unprecedented ferocity is multiplied by the butcher nails implanted in their brains. These devices pound relentlessly, demanding blood and carnage, and the World Eaters are only too willing to give in.
The berzerkers of Khorne lunge headlong at the foe, roaring war cries and oaths at the Blood God and his Skull Throne, their chain weapons spinning in murderous intent. With them come the monstrous, demon-possessed Eightbound, flesh-hungry demon-machines, and legions of bloodthirsty Jakhals. Obsessed with slaughter, the World Eaters hack up anyone who stands in their way, turning all into Khorne's victims. These beasts of war are a fast-moving force that loves to get up close to the enemy and deliver the killing blow while looking them in the eye.
This gory tome is an essential guide for anyone collecting and playing the Servants of the Skull Throne. It contains all the rules needed to play a World Eaters army, as well as a forbidden library full of bloody lore. Learn about the beginnings of Angron's treachery, the bloody battles of Khârn the Betrayer - Khorne's most ardent heretic Astartes champion - and the bloodthirsty hordes that make up this most feared of Traitor Legions.
