The Blood Angels have arrived! Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus has launched the iconic Blood Angels into the grim darkness of the far future this month, as part of their second year anniversary. More than three million players have downloaded the award winning strategy game, and now Blood Angel fans  have access to the crimson born crusaders.

Mataneo, the Intercessor Sergeant, flies into combat with his jump pack. Unleashing quick death to Tyranids or Orks alike, he is a master of execution. Keeping his honour intact, Mataneo is possessed by the curse that all Blood Angels face. Thousands of years ago, the chapter lost their beloved Primarch Sanguinius when the betrayer Horus attacked the Emperor of Mankind, giving rise to the forces of Chaos throughout the galaxy. This noble sacrifice was used against the Blood Angels by the forces of chaos, to try to warp them into madness and convert their power to dominate the galaxy.

The mental war each member of the Blood Angels must endure fuels their wrath on the battlefield. They remain one of the Imperium’s most loyal chapters thousands of years into the grim, dark future.
