On today’s cast we continue our coverage of the war of the beast. We open with all of Terra freaking out about a giant attack moon just above Terra. But luckily the Lords of Terra have an idea, called the Proletarian Crusade. After that dismal failure, we cover two different visitations to the imperial palace, from the Orks and then the Harlequins. From there we follow the forces of the imperium to mars, where they learn the origins of the ork invasion. But before they can act they have to run and pick up a Primarch, who just appeared out of no where.
