About the book:
HEED THE CALL! JOIN THE HOLY ORDERS OF THE GOD-EMPEROR’S INQUISITION!
The Macharian Sector is in peril. On all sides and from within, heretic, daemon and xenos threaten to destroy what the Emperor and his servant, Lord Solar Macharius, have built. As the Imperium’s forces take to the battlefield, it falls to the Holy Orders of the Inquisition to wage their own secretive war. Wielding ultimate authority, Inquisitors and their acolytes face corruption and damnation at every turn. They must be exacting and merciless in their vigil to survive and preserve the soul of the Imperium. Though the doom they seek to avert is inevitable, it might yet be delayed, and only the Inquisition can hope to stave off the darkness that threatens to consume the entire galaxy.
The Inquisition Guides bring the Holy Orders of the Emperor’s Inquisition to life at your gaming table. This first half of an exciting two-book set for Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay: Imperium Maledictum, the Inquisition Player’s Guide lets you craft intimidating Inquisitors and their loyal acolytes and equip them with everything from ominous Daemon Weapons to loyal Psyber-Familiars.
