Description

The Gathering Storm Companion captures the epic cataclysm that tore through the galaxy and changed the course of Warhammer 40,000 forever. Spanning the Fall of Cadia, Fracture of Biel-Tan, and Rise of the Primarch, this lavishly illustrated hardcover presents the events that led to the rebirth of Roboute Guilliman, the rise of Chaos Ascendant, and the breaking of the Imperium’s spine.

This book is not a rules supplement, but a collector-grade companion volume that offers:

• Full campaign summaries from all three Gathering Storm books

• Timeline spreads of the Era Indomitus's opening acts

• Concept art, painted miniatures, and full-page lore illustrations

• High-level overviews of major factions, characters, and strategic shifts
