The Imperium Dawns
The Emperor hides deep within his gene labs. The flesh forges deep within his fortress on Terra. There he works laboring day and night on twenty sons, the seeds of new legions to replace the flawed Thunder Warriors and the artistically crafted Custodians. A new breed of warrior nearly a match for this personal works able to be produced in mass as the Thunder-Warriors are. HIs twenty sons the gene fathers of twenty legions. But his eyes are not the only ones watching over the growing vats and the Growing superhumans. Malevolent forces watched from behind the very veil of reality just beyond the sight of the emperor. And at a precise moment as the focus of the lord of man was drawn away the forces acted and cast the Twenty sons to twenty worlds.
They are you the second son of the emperor, the PRIMARCH of a Legion of Astartes. And at the end of the age of strife, your story begins.

Cast through the warp you land on a distant world. But which one?

The game will function mostly narratively.

You will have a preferred strategy where you will excel and can gain traits, taints, and flaws that can effect you in positive or negative ways.

Your legion will been tracked and its size will effect how useful it is, supporters will be who in the imperium will aid you, and detractors will work against you. You may find yourself siding with Chaos or going your own way and then you will find that the loyalty of your legion may be greater to the Emperor than to you.

But again it is mostly narrative, though dice may be rolled for random or close events.

The smog-filled sky of Imrak is broken for a moment when a spear of fire falls down. The massive world is covered in many wrecks and derelicts, old ship bridges stand repurposed as keeps where scrapper kings squat in rusting giants. The eyes of all turn to you and watch the light in the sky. It crashes into the world...

The Pod punched into a mountain. Deep in the heart is the chamber of an abandoned war machine, you are alone.
