The Horus Heresy: Burning of Prospero

About this board game

The Horus Heresy: Burning of Prospero is a two-player game of running battles, designed for a 90-minute session in a city torn apart by a fiery cataclysm.

Across six scenarios, players face a series of strategic challenges that reward careful planning and tactical awareness. One player commands the Thousand Sons, reality-twisting psychic superhumans fighting through the devastation.

The opposing player controls a force made up of the Space Wolves, Sisters of Silence, and Custodian Guard. With both sides bringing different strengths and weaknesses to the conflict, success depends on recognizing opportunities and responding to the changing battle.

• Designed for exactly two players
• Six scenarios set amid a fiery cataclysm
• Running battles focused on strategic decisions
• Distinct opposing forces with contrasting strengths and weaknesses

The Horus Heresy: Burning of Prospero is fast-paced, but it is not simply a contest of lucky dice rolls. Tactics and foresight are just as important, creating a tense balance between preparation and uncertainty as players struggle through the burning city.

Whether you take command of the psychic Thousand Sons or lead the forces opposing them, each scenario offers a focused test of strategic nous. The result is a conflict where every decision matters and where the strengths of your chosen side must be used wisely.
