You failed as the long arm of the Omnissiah's justice, and your failure cost a world its life. It cost you your mind's integrity, your body's strength, your very self and name.
Will you regain them?

For more than five thousand years has your sector endured, degraded and wartorn though it may be. There are new challenges and inheritors now, claiming the unity of Old Earth and demanding the allegiance of man.
What will you do?
Will you bend the knee to the golden man?
Or will you fight - for liberty, for equality, for fraternity. For all the ideals of man, will you fight once more?MoreLess
It is the end of the eighteenth century, and yours is the task of building the Royal Navy - will you forge the trident, or let the seas pass to another?

Some of the family die nearby and all too young. But the family endures.
And so does the family business. Beneath the notice of Leadenhall Street and atop the arteries of subcontinental commerce, you and your dynasty have lasted for more than long enough by staying out of notice.
Perhaps it is time to change history.MoreLess

Within them are no more than mortal men.
More than a thousand years they have marched, leaving worlds and systems in ashes in the name of more masters than even you can comfortably count. Into legends they have passed, survivors of irradiated hellworlds whispering of their names.
You are their commander, pilot and leader of a God-Machine turned against its home. For you is the Quest of Knowledge from inside a thousand-ton behemoth of armored plate and firepower, crushing battlefields under your feet for science and progress.
The casualties in the process are of course regrettable but needed.
What will you do as the Imperium is split in half, as the Warmaster mobilizes for one final clash? Whither shall you go, Princeps Primaris?
To Terra, to kill a God and free mankind? To Mars, to shatter the chains of ten thousand years and further the march of science? Or to more shadowed places, for knowledge left abandoned and guarded by things better left alone?
Choose well, and remember - nuclear fire solves a great many problems.MoreLess
