Forgeworld is putting out an awesome Horus Heresy set that at long last has a standalone codex for the Space Marine Legions.

Here’s the press release and the pics to keep you drooling:

This Limited Edition Collection contains The Horus Heresy Book Three – Extermination, the Special Edition Legiones Astartes Crusade Army List(with exclusive cover), the Special Edition Legiones Astartes Isstvan Campaign Legions (with exclusive cover) and the exclusive The Horus Heresy Illuminations – The Art of the Isstvan Trilogy. Also included is a limited edition numbered certificate and all of these products are presented within a unique slip case, which also has room to fit within it copies of The Horus Heresy Book One – Betrayal and The Horus Heresy Book Two – Massacre (sold separately).

The Horus Heresy Book Three – Extermination
The third and final part of the Isstvan trilogy. This book details the aftermath of the Isstvan V Dropsite Massacre, and two other major battles fought between the Loyalist and Traitor Legions as the Horus Heresy swept out from the Isstvan system and into the wider Imperium of Mankind: the Battle of Phall and the Battle of Paramar. Also featured are the background and game rules for the four Legions covered in this book: the Alpha Legion, Imperial Fists, Raven Guard and Iron Warriors, and a Mechanicum army list, plus new campaigns and vehicles.

This lavishly illustrated, full colour, 285 page hardcover book is leather bound with metal corner clasps stamped with the Imperial Aquila and features a red ribbon bookmark and foil edged pages as well as an embossed cover and spine.
Legion Astartes Crusade Army List This contains the collated and updated Legion army list from all three books in the Horus Heresy Isstvan trilogy in one leather bound, 96 page hard back, lightweight and easy to carry book.

Legion Astartes Isstvan Campaign Legions A leather bound, hard cover, 116 page book with rules for specific units and characters for the twelve Legions involved in the battles presented in the Isstvan trilogy.
The Horus Heresy Illuminations – The Art of the Isstvan TrilogyThis 56 page book contains our favourite artwork from the Isstvan trilogy, along with a number of unpublished concept drawings. This soft cover book is also housed within its own leather bound slip case and is only available with the Collector’s Edition.

There will only be 1,500 copies of The Isstvan Campaign Collector’s Edition, each containing a numbered certificate. This set will be available to purchase at the Forge World Open Day. The Isstvan Campaign Collector’s Edition will go on general release in the next few weeks.

I have to say I am SUPER Excited! For all of you guys who have never played a Heresy game or seen the Legion Armylist, it is a fantastic piece of work. One of the best designed and fun – flavorful lists in the entire gamesystem. The real problem playing it has been the unwieldiness of carting around multiple high-priced HH campaign books. Being able to throw the small “Legion Codex” in my bag with the army will make getting out and getting games only easier, and hopefully expose Heresy Gaming to even more folks.

Who’s in for this?
