Turns: Deployment The following is a game of Warhammer 40,000 played using the new Apocalypse Expansion rules. This allows for larger battles than the average game would normally allow and significantly greater bloodshed and disappointment. Per our usual idiom, parts of this project, specifically the photos used to record the battle were lost in a hard drive crash. This is number 4 for us.
