Right in the midst of a new year's first season, it's time to take a look at the exclusive card backs earned by the players who came up on top of the rankings in last year's competitive seasons. Forever will these honours distinguish those who claimed victory in the most ruthless conflicts in galactic warfare.

Glory to the Warmaster!

"Darkness falls."
– Farith Redloss, Commander of the Dreadwing

The highly effective Night Lords counter-assault has worn down the Dark Angels forces. In an attempt to sway the fight to their side, Farith and the Dreadwing join the Lion's assault! Unwilling to let that happen, Malcharion will come to reinforce the VIIIth Legion's defensive effort.

Farith and Malcharion join the event as reinforcement warlords. Fight to decide which Dark Angels Warlord will become collectable! Remember, if your lodge places in the Top 10, you will receive the new Warlord in your event reward crate!
