A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.
This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.
Helpful Links

- iOS Warhammer 40k App
- Android Warhammer 40k App
- 3rd party site for running Kill Team games

Not quite, I included the Primarchs of the Lost Legions and Omegon in the count.
The Lost Primarchs were deliberately erased from history by the Emperor for mystery reasons, and Omegon was a secret from even other Primarchs, though several of them figured it out.
Knowledge of the Traitors isn't heresy by default, but knowledge of their existence is variable by region so some sheltered worlds might not know and be outraged at your claim that a Space Marine could be a traitor and others could give you a brief history of the Horus Heresy.
Though I think the cat might out of the bag entirely in the most current timeline, like how Grey Knights aren't a secret anymore.
Thanks for your detailed and accurate explanations.
