I first read this exceptional Warhammer 40k supplement back when it was first released around 2010-2011. Every time I come back to it I think the same thing. This is a well thought out, detailed, interesting and unique take on Warhammer 40k fictional history. In my humble opinion it is Alan Bligh's best work, even considering the excellent Horus Heresy books. well worth the read not just for the scenarios and rules, but for the attention to detail on every aspect of the Badab War from the battles and timeline to the uniforms, tactics and equipment. Exceptional. ( )
