Sort of a "choose your own adventure" story that explains a lot of rules while throwing in some fluff.

Nifty.
I got eaten by the daemon, but took him with me. It was glorious.
Oh? We had a mission?

Tsk tsk... if you follow the Codex Astartes you make it through with only four battle-brothers lost.

They don't issue the Codex Astartes to mere commissars. They're afraid we'll get spooge stains on it.

I only lost 2 men (and as they were ultramarines then its a sacrifice I'm willing to make)...
Altho, after going through that they seem to have over-complicated the rules (again)

Are you kidding? 4th Edition is a godsend compared to the messy 3rd Ed rules.

2? I dont think you can do that. its either lose 4, or all die.

I went thru the first time, and not assuming it would take 15.4 years for my troops to run 12" down the trench, i was blown to hell from orbit. great. i did it right the second time tho, taking a victory with 4 losses.

well I knew enough the basics to know you attack khorne's pets from a semi-safe distance, never let them close with you....
