Before the grand relaunch of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy with the Age of Darkness box and a new edition of the rules, much of the game was carried by a series of books known to Heresy veterans as the ‘Black Books’ – tomes of lore and rules that covered legendary campaigns and the forces fighting in them. Slowly, they fleshed out most of the major factions who took part in the Horus Heresy, and alongside the Black Library novels became a foundation of the setting’s background info. Much of that lore is still relevant today, so over the course of the next few months we’ll be diving into these books and carving out sections for you to download and read at your leisure. ‘Carving out’ may seem like an odd choice of words, but it’ll make sense in a minute, because the first Legion on the block is the vicious Night Lords.
