Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge Reveals Emperor's Children

• The Emperor's Children, the latest faction to join Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge, make their grand entrance.
• Driven by an insatiable thirst for new experiences, these sadistic warriors are the epitome of vanity and pride.
• Dive into a fresh gaming experience with three unique warlords, innovative mechanics, and powerful new units.

Are you a fan of the Hellraiser series or appreciate a cleverly ironic name? Then you'll be thrilled that Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge's newest playable faction is the Emperor's Children! Featuring three distinct Warlords and a suite of novel mechanics, this Slaanesh-aligned faction is ready to unleash exquisite torment.

Once a loyal Space Marine legion, the Emperor's Children turned from the Imperium during the Horus Heresy. Now, they pledge allegiance only to the Chaos God Slaanesh and their own desires, having fractured into ruthless warbands that scour the galaxy in an endless quest for novel thrills and sensations.

Reflecting their fractured nature, you can choose from three new warlords. Lord Kaphrael specializes in hunting enemy champions and commands the Callous Blades. Xarahan perfectly embodies the faction's trademark arrogance and self-obsession. And who else but the immortal favorite, Lucius the Eternal, whose phenomenal swordplay has been honed over countless centuries?

The Emperor's Children bring uniquely disturbing mechanics to the battlefield. Units marked with "Ecstasy" activate a powerful effect when their health drops to a critical point. Those with "Cruelty" gain a bonus when you injure, but don't destroy, an enemy unit. The "Stimulation" trait triggers an ability when the unit is targeted by stratagems. Combat Elixirs empower certain cards to generate additional stratagems, fueling even more devastating combos.

The Emperor's Children are available now in new booster packs and DLC. Prepare to dominate—and torment—your opponents with their cruel new abilities and units.
