Imperial Fists vs Iron Warriors: Horus Heresy SN Battle Report

Iron Warriors Battle ReportIn this Horus Heresy SN battle report, the Iron Warriors try their best to break through the Imperial Fists’ lines!

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, which Legion is the best, and can the defences of the Imperial Fists hold up to the might of the Iron Warriors?

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!
