Lord Commissar Krauser thought his tour with the Harkonian 151^st on the calm and peaceful hive world of Jenys-S II would be his “pre-retirement” ? an easy last stop before his actual retirement in two years (after 45 years of service to the Emperor).

Though not the top military commander deployed with the Harkonian regiments on Jenys-S II, Krauser has once again had fate thrust into his hands and been given another chance at glory.

With open warfare breaking out on the planet`s only inhabited continent, Krauser knows it`s up to him to lead his forces to victory over the ruinous powers on the battlefield and to recover the strange archeotech known as the Life Generator.

Now, teamed with his new allies ? Captain Pauro Sandros and the Imperial Fists ? the stern Lord Commissar has all of the firepower to crush his enemies.

But new players have entered the theater of war including reports of warp-spawned Daemons, devious Eldar, and even vile xeno-lifeforms.

Will Krauser be able to turn this twilight in his military career into his “finest hour”? And will he be able to find Adept Biad-dur of the Reclamation Project and secure his Life Generator?
And will the Lord Commissar be able to reconcile with Supreme Commander Rolando of the increasingly hostile PDF forces?
