I forgot what exactly I was doing but somehow I stumbled upon the image of an epic battle between guys with giant armor and other guys with darker giant armor. Big guns. Blood. Gore. Chainsaw-sword. It looks cool so I decided to look deeper into the image link. It was a "Warhammer" fanart.
I didn't know if it was a game or comic at first so I started googling. I downloaded a bunch of warhammer 40K graphic novels, and godammit it was !@#$ing awesome! I was able to piece together some of the important details of warhammer universe by reading that. Warpstone. Chaos. God Emperor. Space marines. But I want to know what happened before mankind became the dominant force in space. There is too much info on the internet and I didn't know where to start.
Then I remembered a familiar symbol, TEST's pip. Some chaos soldiers has them on their skin/armor. Also if I remembered correctly there a post where Mensa's Dio Brando is wearing a giant golden armor (throne of terra?), the same one worn by the emperium's god emperor. If you guys know a good site or book where I could start that would be great.
tl;dr any warhammer fans out there?
