Official Synopsis
The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes - Crusade Army List is a 96 page hard back containing the complete profiles, special rules and wargear, compiled and updated, for the core Legiones Astartes Legion Crusade Army List for Warhammer 40,000 and the Battles in the Age of Darkness gaming expansion. It allows Horus Heresy players to carry something lighter the their games than the weighty tomes of our main volumes, and is also intended to be used both as a resource for consulting and collecting your armies and as a handy reference during play. The contents of this book have been drawn from across the three volumes of Forge World's Horus Heresy Isstvan Trilogy series, and are intended to be used alongside its companion book The Horus Heresy: Legiones Astartes - Isstvan Campaign Legions which provides the special rules and unique units and characters for the specific Legions featured in the epic conflict of the Horus Heresy's opening stages. It can also be used as a basis to build a Great Crusade army list for any of the Space Marine Legions.
