+++ Welcome to the League of Drifting Hulks +++
THERE IS NO PEACE AMONG THE STARS
The glittering achievements of the Dark Age of Technology
have been all but lost, obscured by uncounted centuries of superstition and
fear. The worlds of Man are scattered across the galaxy, with vast gulfs of
wilderness space separating one from another. But the Age of the Imperium has
cast the Emperor's Divine Light across a million worlds. It has established an
iron regime only maintained through flesh and blood, endless toil, monumental
sacrifice and unthinking loyalty to distant Terra. Man has learned to embrace
war as its religion, billions take up arms against a galaxy of foes. Great ships
sail the void, their guns charged to rain death upon enemies of the God-Emperor.
Still it is not enough to guard the fragile worlds of man
from a cruel and uncaring universe.
Still it is not enough to guard against the unnumbered
horrors which lurk upon forgotten worlds, the alien races which prey upon the
scattered outposts of humanity and the heretics who dare defy the Emperor's
will.
This is the Age of the Imperium. A time of war and carnage
among the stars, of great fleets and mighty armies, selfless heroism and
blackest infamy.
There is no peace among the stars, only war...
