Taormino Final Zine

In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future,
there is...

ONLY WAR

“It is the 41st millenium. For more than a hundred
centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden
Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the
will of the gods, and master of a million worlds by the
might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting car-
cass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age
of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium
for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day, so

that he may never truly die.
Yet even in his deathless state, the Emperor continues

his eternal vigilance. Mighty battlefleets cross the
daemon-infested miasma of the warp, the only route
between distant stars, their way lit by the Astronomi-
can, the psychic manifestation of the Emperor’s will.
Vast armies give battle in his name on uncounted
worlds. Greatest amongst his soldiers are the Adeptus

Astartes, the Space Marines, bio-engineered
super-warriors. Their comrades in arms are legion: the
Imperial Guard and countless planetary defence forces,
the ever-vigilant Inquisition and the tech-priests of the
Adeptus Mechanicus to name only a few. But for all
their multitudes, they are barely enough to hold off the
ever-present threat from aliens, heretics, mutants - and

worse.
To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold
billions. It is to live in the cruellest and most bloody
regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times.

Forget the power of technology and science, for so
much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned.
Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for
in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no
peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage
and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.”

across the galaxy and reached the pinnacle in technology. But those times are over. The vast

Warhammer 40000 Games Coming
Out Soon

Warhammer 40000 Dawn Of War 3

Dawn of War 3 is a continuation of the Dawn Of War series developed by Relic
Entertainment, Sega, and THQ. After THQ had gone bankrupt in 2013, every Warhammer
40000 nerd screamed in despair as THQ was one of the best gaming companies to make
Warhammer games. What most hoped for is the continuation of the Dawn Of War series and its
sequels. Relic and Sega answered the call with an announcement trailer detailling what races will
be in the game and new units like the Knight Titan. More details will be released in the following
months to come.

Eternal Crusade

Eternal Crusade is a massive online multiplayer game based on the world of Arkhona,
developed by Behavior Studios. The game is to play somewhat similar to the game, Planetside 2,
with massive battles between infantry and armored elements. So far, the game is to include the
Eldar, Space Marines, Chaos Space Marines, and Tyranids, but the developers are looking to
include most, if not all, the major races in the Warhammer 40000 universe. The game is
projected to come out in the Summer of 2016. Better still, the game is to come out for consoles
Xbox One and Play Station 4, along with the PC. The game is in Alpha stage as of right now.

Space Hulk: Deathwing

In this game, players will be playing as the First Company of the Dark Angels Chapter, the
Deathwing Company, where players will search through a Space Hulk while killing Genesteal-
ers. Not much information has been provided on the game or when it will be released, but what
is known is that it has a multiplayer up to 5 people and will be played in First Person. The game
designers have released a series of videos on the game, along with a gameplay review from IGN.
