Warhammer Horus Heresy: Legions News

"I can show you my superiority."
– Vulkan, Primarch

During the Horus Heresy, many Salamanders fought in small-scale missions focused on delaying the traitor's progress, as well as taking out key strategic points and limiting their ability to resupply. With all attention focused on Terra, it's now the perfect time to strike the traitors all across the galaxy with an updated arsenal!

This update brings changes to the Sacrifice trait, as well as many cards and Warlords of the Salamanders Legion. In the remote world of Caliban, Luther also receives an important update. Check out all the changes:

• Sacrifice: This trait now triggers when the troop is killed during its controller's own turn, regardless of whether it is attacking or not.
