The Horus Heresy Journal Tactica: The Forces of Saturn 48-Page Softcover Supplement

The Horus Heresy Journal Tactica: The Forces of Saturn is a 48-page softcover gaming supplement designed for use with the Warhammer: The Horus Heresy tabletop wargame. It focuses on the advanced Saturnine pattern technology developed by Vulkan, Primarch of the Salamanders, during the galaxy-spanning civil war. The book provides narrative context and specific rules to integrate this powerful armour and its associated units into your games, expanding the tactical options available to players. The supplement contains detailed accounts of key battles where Saturnine Terminators and Dreadnoughts were deployed, including the Dropsite Massacre at Isstvan V. The rules section introduces new gameplay elements such as missions centred on heavy assaults, new Detachments like the Linebreaker Echelon Apex, and specific Unit Profiles for Legiones Astartes armies. It also includes the Osiraean Prosperine Arcana upgrade for the Thousand Sons legion, allowing for further army customisation. The book is a source of both historical lore and practical gaming mechanics, presented in a standard softcover format. This supplement is aimed at existing players of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy who wish to deepen their narrative campaigns or explore new army builds. It is best suited for hobbyists who already own the core Age of Darkness Rulebook and a relevant army book (Liber Hereticus or Liber Astartes), as these are required to use the content. The book serves as a specialised expansion, fitting into a collector's library of Horus Heresy publications and providing fresh scenarios and unit rules for organised play or friendly matches.
