  WARHAMMER	40,000
  It	is	the	41st	millennium.	For	more	than	a	hundred	centuries	the
  Emperor	has	sat	immobile	on	the	Golden	Throne	of	Earth.	He	is	the
  master	of	mankind	by	the	will	of	the	gods,	and	master	of	a	million

  Astronomican,	the	psychic	manifestation	of	the	Emperor's	will.	Vast
  armies	give	battle	in	his	name	on	uncounted	worlds.	Greatest	amongst
  His	soldiers	are	the	Adeptus	As
