The Emperors Children are infamous for their Noise Marines dedicated fully to the thralls of Slaanesh (who happens to be a big topic this week).

I used to do a lot of these faction articles where I looked at the artwork and or discussed the factions. I used to do these on Fridays, but I I am thinking Wednesday's might work best. I miss these, so here is the first one..... This week.... The Emperors Children.
