Warhammer 40,000. Space Marines

Meer over het boek

Publication 2004 In the fictional Warhammer 40,000 setting created by Games Workshop, the Space Marines (or Adeptus Astartes) are elite human soldiers enhanced to superhuman levels through genetic therapy, surgical modifications, and hypnotic indoctrination. The standard Space Marine is the Imperial Space Marine, but several variations exist, such as corrupted Chaos Space Marines and the elite Grey Knights. Space Marines feature in the table-top wargame, its spin-off games such as Epic and Inquisitor, the computer games including Dawn of War and Fire Warrior, and the novels based on the setting produced by Black Library. Over the years the Space Marine has become an iconic image of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
