Chaos Space Marines are genetically enhanced transhumans who seek only to conquer, slaughter, and desecrate. Clad in baroque power armor and covered in grisly trophies and infernal symbols, Chaos Space Marines fight alongside rumbling battle tanks, massive Daemon Machines, and teeming hordes of cultist slaves. Some are possessed by daemonic allies, others carry artifacts marked by Chaos or wield warp sorcery. Whatever form they take, they continue the Long War with ruthless brutality, slaughtering all who stand in their way in a campaign of vengeance, conquest, and apocalyptic violence.
