In this SN Horus Heresy battle report, the Dark Angels try to take down the Word Bearers before they can wreak more havoc!
A battle for HH supremacy is happening on the SN Battle Reports YouTube Channel. This time we get to see how the new edition plays out on the tabletop, and it is great to see how the games go. The real question is, can the Dark Angels keep their secrets safe, or will the Word Bearers make their truth be heard?
Their studio is quite an excellent place for a game, so we’re excited to see who comes out on top. Let’s first look at the lists and then dive into the battle!
