The Butcher's Nails Never Stop Screaming
There is no subtlety in a World Eaters army. There is only the charge, the chainaxe, and the relentless hunger of warriors who have given themselves entirely to Khorne, the Blood God. The World Eaters Codex for Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition is the definitive rules and lore companion for one of the game's most visceral and single-minded factions — a legion of Chaos Space Marines who exist for one purpose: to close the distance and destroy everything in reach.
Inside, you will find the complete army rules for fielding the XII Legion on the tabletop, including datasheets for every unit in the range — from Khorne Berzerkers and Jakhals to Angron himself, Daemon Primarch of the World Eaters. The book covers detachment rules, stratagems, enhancements, and army-building guidance specific to the World Eaters, giving you everything needed to run them as a fully legal and competitive force in 10th Edition matched play, narrative campaigns, and open play alike. Lore sections trace the bloody history of the XII Legion from the Great Crusade through Horus Heresy betrayal to their eternal existence as servants of the Blood God — essential reading for anyone who wants to understand what drives these warriors beyond mere chaos or madness.
This Codex is the primary purchase for any World Eaters player in 10th Edition. New collectors building their first red-and-brass warband will use it to learn the faction's identity and army rules. Veteran players returning to the game or transitioning from a previous edition will find it the authoritative update to everything that changed with 10th Edition. It is also a compelling read for hobbyists who paint the World Eaters purely for the aesthetic — the showcase photography and lore background make it a genuine reference for colour schemes, battle-scarred armour, and the iconic iconography of Khorne's chosen.
