Hello and welcome. 

If you've found yourself here, your either a die hard fan of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, or you were just looking for Latin translations and ended up here out of curiosity.

For the latter, I recommend a decent dictionary. For the former, stick around, hopefully you may enjoy some of what is on offer.

I'd first like to point out to all that this blog is unofficial, unpaid and in no way intends to offend or infringe upon anyone's intellectual property or rights. To everybody who's work, be it text or image I have used, incorporated or been inspired to include into my hobby works and blog shown here, I thank you. Your works have enriched my hobby and fuelled my imagination. If anything anyone likes the look of on here, I can only hope that some of it may in-turn inspire you and add to your enjoyment of the hobby.

As successive editions of 40k have come and gone, novels from the Black Library accumulated and the advent and expansion of 30k continued, my fascination and interest in the Blood Angels has only increased up unto the point whereby my army, this blog and eventual 'house' codex have become the culmination of my hobby.

This blog represents and exhibits my own minds eye view, taste and perspective of what is and has been my favourite facet of the Warhammer 40,000 universe for many years, the Emperor of mankind's most noble Legion....The Blood Angels.

A legion beset from within and without, 
by affliction and attrition, 
across far flung corners of the galaxy.

Still loyal,
still proud as the day they were founded,
still noble in spirit,
still just,
still fighting the good fight,
still protecting mankind with all their might,
still striving in war,
still artisans during peace.


To any and all still reading....


.....I'd like you come with me.
 On a journey,
a journey that will take us far, far away,
far across the galaxy from the birthplace of man, 
to the far reaches of the future,
far past man's days of triumph and long forgotten glories of conquest,
to a place and time where mankind's greatest master no longer strides proudly across the stars,
to a place and time where his greatest sons and their legions no longer stand unified as one,
to a place and time where his still loyal and most noble of crusaders can only but hope to hold back the tide of mankind's enemy's,
as well as they can,
for as long as they can,
before they too,
like their proud farther before them,
becomes but another legend of the past,
and but another memory of man's former glory.
