Engine War is the 7th book of the Psychic Awakening series.[1]

Background

The Psychic Awakening series continues with Engine War. This campaign book features new rules for the Adeptus Mechanicus, Imperial Knights, Chaos Knights and Chaos Daemons. The campaign book also tells a sweeping narrative detailing the impact of the Great Rift on Mars, and how the Adeptus Mechanicus' power and sway began to wane in its wake. This resulted in Mars taking action and launching numerous Reclamation Fleets, to once again be at the forefront of power within the Imperium.[3]
