From the Community:

Discover the origins of the distinctive Saturnine-pattern Terminator armour and Dreadnought in the next Journal Tactica, The Forges of Saturn. This 48-page supplement reveals the early use of Saturnine technology in the Great Crusade and Vulkan’s later efforts to revitalise the designs, including how each of the other 17 Legions reacted to the Primarch’s gift before Horus began his fateful rebellion.

Alongside the new and expanded lore, this book contains rules for three new units – equipping Centurions and Command Squads in Saturnine armour and giving the Word Bearers a unique daemon-infused Terminator unit – and a new Prosperine arcana for the Thousand Sons. It also includes a new Legendary Mission depicting the Salamanders’ assault on the Death Guard’s fortified positions during the Dropsite Massacre, and three new asymmetric Onslaught Missions that task players with attacking their opponent’s defensive lines.*
