Warhammer 40,000: Sisters of Battle #2

War Zone: Octarius is Coming to Warhammer 40,000

A new War Zone for Warhammer 40,000 has been revealed, War Zone: Octarius. The first book is called “Rising Tide“. The region is ravaged by a massive Ork Waaaagh and Tyranid attack and the Imperium is doing what it can to prevent both from breaking out.

But, how to do that isn’t so clear. Some Inquisitors feel the Orks should win and they should be helped to defeat the Tyranids. Some feel the Tyranids should be allowed to defeat the Orks. And some think both of those ideas are horrible.

The book is packed with lore and rules for the armies involved including Armies of Renown and Codex Supplements.
