The most indefatigable of Heretic Astartes warbands possess a grim determination that matches the resilience of their superhuman physiques and formidable ceramite armour. They go to war amidst formations of daemonic war machines and growling vehicles. Some even embrace the worship of the Dark Gods, trading their souls for supernatural protection.
