	'''Imperial Armour''' is a series of books written by [[Forge World]] (the company) to promote their [[Warhammer 40,000]] models. They ~~include~~ full-color drawings, technical data, rules (in some cases full army lists, recently given an official stamp of approval), and, in most cases, a narrative focusing on a campaign which features the models included.		'''Imperial Armour''' <s>is</s> ''was'' a series of books written by [[Forge World]] (the company) to promote their [[Warhammer 40,000]] models. They included full-color drawings, technical data, rules (in some cases full army lists, recently given an official stamp of approval), and, in most cases, a narrative focusing on a campaign which features the models included.

	As the name might suggest, there is a bias towards ''[[Imperium\|Imperial]]'' armies -- at least one of the [[Space Marines]], [[Imperial Guard]], [[Imperial Navy]], [[Sisters of Battle]], and/or [[Inquisition]] have been represented in every book, although Forge World does seem to be giving less-seen forces some time in the spotlight, like the [[Raven Guard]], [[Salamanders]], [[Elysian Drop Troops]], and [[Death Korps of Krieg]]. However, each book features a non-imperial army foremost (read: on the cover), and releases specialized units, army lists, and [[Apocalypse]] love for the specific non-imperial faction being featured. Tau got most of their Apocalypse units from their release, and the Ork list has a [[Warhammer_40,000/Tactics/Orks/Dred_List\|whole bloody tactica]]. <s>More often than not, the [[xenos]] even win!</s> Oh who are we kidding - Imperial forces get fucked up in '''every''' book - they either outright lose or their victory is totally Pyrrhic. And this IS how you [[grimdark]] and show that Imperium isn't alright.

	A second release of the indexes with the previous four all rolled into one book. However it was written by the GW 40k team, not the FW team since they were to busy writing rules for 30k and making alternative [[Necromunda]] heads in the shed GW makes them work in, and so the rules are not great and many of the characters and units were given very odd and in some cases unfluffy rules. On top of that it removed dozens of vehicles, units and gutted multiple ranges (RIP Renegades and Heretics) sending most units into Legends, making the book both a huge disappointment and most likely the very undignified end to what had once been the best series produced for 40k.

			===The Final nail===
			During early 2023 and the lead up to [[Warhammer 40,000 10th Edition\|10 editions launch]], many of the old Imperial armour models were Squatted from the [[Forge World]] webstore. Then in May 2023 the remaining Imperial Armour models for every faction (minus Krieg for some reason) were set to LCTB and were all gone forever within an hour (as well as the old Terminator models and the [[Rage\| old Dreadnought model]] at the same time). This final purge dropped many of most beloved models every produced by Forge World, such as [[Tyberos the Red Wake\|Tyberos]], [[Asterion Moloc]], The Ork Warboss on a bike and the huge [[Greater Daemon]] models. The reason for this is that GW want's to have all future 40k releases in plastic and has been moving away from it for the [[Warhammer 40k\|two main]] [[Age of Sigmar\|line games]], and possibly needing to free up space for new Horus Heresy and [[Warhammer: The Old World\|The Old World]] stuff. All of the old Imperial Armour units will be going into the 40k Legends PDF to have slap-dash and sub-par rules that never get updated out side of new points costs.

			And so here we are, at the end. The greatest series of supplements for 40k is now dust in the wind.
