Empire of Man is the largest human civilization of the Old World – united under the Emperor and divided into provinces such as Reikland, Middenland, and Averland. It is a realm of courage, faith, and pragmatism, surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Empire armies include State Troops, Greatswords, Knights of the Inner Circle, and Flagellants. In battle, they rely on disciplined formations, firearms, and Colleges of Magic. Their war machines, such as the Hellblaster Volley Gun and Steam Tank, are iconic.

The Empire uses rules such as Orders, Battle Prayers, and Combined Arms. Their fighting style is flexible, tactical, and brave. They are the last bastion of humanity against Chaos, undead, and greenskins – and their survival depends on unity, faith, and steel.
