- Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge introduces the Emperor's Children as its newest faction
- These vicious warriors pursue endless stimulation and embody pure ego and arrogance
- Experience fresh gameplay with three unique warlords, innovative mechanics, and new units
If you're a fan of Hellraiser and appreciate ironic names, you'll love that Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge's latest faction is the Emperor's Children! Featuring three new Warlords and a range of fresh mechanics, this Slaanesh-focused faction lets you unleash pure suffering on the battlefield.
Originally a loyalist Space Marine legion, the Emperor's Children broke away from the Imperium during the Horus Heresy. Now devoted solely to the chaos god Slaanesh and their own desires, they've fractured into independent warbands that roam the galaxy hunting for new thrills and sensations.
Reflecting this lore, players can choose from three new warlords. Lord Kaphrael specializes in eliminating enemy champions and commands the Callous Blades, while Xarahan personifies the Emperor's Children's signature arrogance and ego. Then there's Lucius the Eternal, the infamous immortal swordsman whose skills have been honed over thousands of years.
Your anticipation is almost palpableThe Emperor's Children bring uniquely unsettling mechanics that define their units. Cards with Ecstasy activate an effect when their health drops to a specific level, while those with Cruelty gain bonuses when you damage but don't destroy an enemy unit. Stimulation triggers an ability whenever the unit is targeted by stratagems. Additionally, Combat Elixirs cause certain cards to generate extra stratagems, empowering their abilities even further.
Watch for the Emperor's Children, now available in new booster packs and DLC. Harness their new abilities and units to truly torment your opponents.
