We are a Legion of ruthless murderers and masters at guerrilla warfare combined with tactical cowardice. Over the years, the Black Library has provided us with slivers and glimpses into the VIII Legion and how it operates – even as I write this article, I’m listening to John Banks narrating Pharos.
