About this deal

The Spear of Russ, known by the Emperor of Mankind as the Dionysian Spear [6] and sometimes known as the Wolfspear [7] or its hidden name Gungir [5], is a legendary artefact of the Space Wolves Chapter, which was wielded by their Primarch Leman Russ.

Elara’s Veil is torn between the Adeptus Vaelarii, the Sentinels of the Veil: the three Space Marine Chapters oathsworn to defend it, and the Exilarchy: the forces of Chaos swarming out of the Great Rift in an unending tide, desperate to take and hold territory.

Warlords of Nemeton

If you’re waiting to muster your own Strike Force of Emperor’s Spears, you’ll be pleased to know you can also look forward to a bespoke Chapter Tactic, Redden the Earth, as well as three Relics, three Warlord Traits, and a pair of Stratagems that are unique to the Chapter.

War-Priest Ducarius - Ducarius of the Kavalei Tribe is a War-Priest of the Emperor's Spears' 3rd Warhost. The book starts with Anuradha Daaz and her master Vádhan of the Emperor's Spears sitting within the Spear's fortress. The events of the book are far in the past. The Spears of the Emperor fight against the forces of the Exilarchy, but the situation is worse every day. They haven't yet threatened Nemeton, the Spears' homeworld, but it seems inevitable.Many Veteran members of the Emperor's Spears have the symbol of the Star Scorpions displayed on the right knee guard instead to reflect the campaigns they fought alongside their lost sibling-Chapter. Obviously, their newly-arrived Primaris Space Marine brethren do not display these symbols. Other Emperor's Spears Astartes, including the Chapter's Primaris brethren, often have the Celestial Lions' symbol engraved on their right poleyn, reflecting the many crusades fought alongside the Lions. The Chapter's 1st Company is called "the Paragons." These warriors forsake any chance to rise further in the Chapter's hierarchy, and it is believed that they must undergo blood rites and other hidden rituals to gain their elite position. On the battlefield, they are fierce hunters, focusing on the elimination of enemy leaders. Upon their inception, they were charged with standing sentinel over the scattered worlds of the Elara's Veil region of Ultima Segmentum, ever watchful for insurrection and rebellion, as well as external threats.

Anuradha also tells Incarius about the tomb. He isn't concerned - he sees the sacrifice of those dead Spears to successfully learn how to create Primaris as necessary and a worthy sacrifice. As usual, he doesn't linger on the emotional aspect of their deaths. This part ends with them heading off to war. After the touchy diplomacy and hostile courtesy from the Spears, Anuradha greets it with relief. Arakanii - The Arakanii are a coastal clan, known for their battlefield scavenging, when they loot the dead of other, larger clans after tribal wars. Some of the oldest chronicles even recorded witness-oaths seeing the Arakanii devouring the flesh of the dead. Of note is that the Imperial Navy no longer exists. Instead, the warships that aren't in the colors of the Bealladon Mechanicus are in the colors of the Spears, including Navy ones. Incarius remarks that this is a flagrant violation of the Codex but adds that it is forgivable considering the dire times.Since the opening of the Great Rift, the Emperor's Spears have been beset by new dangers. The Rift is visible from Nemeton, and its baleful influence has been felt across the Elara's Veil region. Hard pressed by constant war and isolation following the loss of their fellow Chapters, the Emperor's Spears now stand upon the brink of destruction, and it remains to be seen how its future will unfold... The Emperor's Spears have codes of conduct that forbid them from becoming too filthy. Even in the middle of a campaign, they are forced to maintain their armour as well as they can, to respect its Machine Spirit and to intimidate the enemy, rather than looking battered and therefore weak. The Emperor's Spears divert substantially from the organisational dictates of the Codex Astartes. They have a vast Chapter fleet, and specialise in air-to-ground warfare and orbital drop assaults. They are particularly mobile when it comes to deployment and redeployment, and are not short of air assets.

Great new novel from Aaron Dembski-Bowden chronicling the story of the Emperor's Spears, a Space Marine Chapter on the edge of destruction, last watchmen over the Elara's Veil nebula. Now, the decisions of one man, Amadeus Kaias Incarius of the Mentor Legion, will determine the Chapter's fate… Even in their relatively short history, the Emperor's Spears have clashed with their fellow Space Marines, notably the Aurora Chapter during the Eukari Insurrection. So ruinous was the conflict between the Chapters that the Ultramarines sent representatives to quell the unrest, ruling that the Emperor's Spears had acted rashly and were to blame for the blows that were exchanged.
