Yes this is for the table top. Horus Heresy is an event in "the past" in 31st millennium, roughly 10 000 years of "the current" events. Horus Heresy is a civil war within the Imperium of Man. Horus is one of the sons of the Emperor and leader of the rebellion. Also very under appreciated Warhammer 40k game trailers are from Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 1 and 2, people usually don't react to these because you can't find them by searching Warhammer 40k/40 000 since it is not in the name. Launch trailer for BGA 1 is pretty good and for BGA 2 I recommend "Cadia's Last Stand [1440p] Warhammer 40,000 Cinematic"
The first guy, Horus, has tubes sticking into his head to just give him a better battlfield edge, not to live or anything. They deliver battle information straight into the brain in addition to putting different drugs straight to the brain. The second guy on the chair is what pilots one of those giant mechs, the pilots r called "princeps", the mechs r called titans. They usually have protective shields they call void shields. The pilots have to be intigrated into the mech to fully use it, in addition to an entire crew to help with more minor stuff. Some titans can get so massive they could have entire cities on top
I've had this copypasta I typed up ready in case someone needs context to the horus heresy as both a franchise and a piece of lore, going over a very condensed version of the entire sequence of events (as condensed as you can get for an over 60+ novel series) so I hope it provides at least some explanation for you! Basically, The Horus Heresy is a tabletop/board game spin-off of the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game. It's a prequel setting that specifically focuses on humanity's re-conquering of the galaxy after tens and thousands of years of galactic turmoil. It focuses even more specifically on the genetically engineered Space Marines and their Primarchs (the generals that the Space Marines take genetic material from in order to be the superhuman killing machines that they are) in a brutal civil war that spans years, taking literal trillions of lives and plunging humanity into near extinction, wiping out almost all hope of progress and peace among the stars. The characters you saw in the trailer were: - The Primarch Horus Lupercal, Warmaster and Arch-Betrayer (the main man of this trailer, decked in black armor wielding a giant claw and mace) - Sons of Horus Space Marines (traitorous Space Marines serving Horus, they are the ones in green.) - Imperial Fists Space Marines (Space Marines who remain loyal to humanity, the ones in yellow.) - Warlord Titans of Mars (the giant robots) If you really wanna know some lore, please bear with me, as it's VAST. The Horus Heresy is mainly told through a novel series that spans over a hundred total of books, short stories, and audio dramas. Short backstory (short by warhammer standards lol): There is an all-powerful man simply called the Emperor of Mankind. After unifying earth (called terra in the setting) following years of war due to the state of the earth being turned into what's basically sci-fi mad max, he decides to venture out of earth in order to conquer lost human worlds that they used to be in contact with before terrible galactic warp storms made FTL travel impossible. These storms dissipated and the Emperor took this chance to finally begin- as he calls it- his Great Crusade. He cannot do this alone however, so using his vast knowledge of bio-engineering coupled with his immense psychic power he creates 20 sons called the Primarchs. Before his plans were fully complete, the 4 dark gods of chaos (yes, dark gods and hell exists in this universe) stole his sons from him while they were still infants in their gestation pods, and too powerful to destroy, chucks them out each into random planets across the galaxy. In the wake of this, the Emperor gathered whatever remaining genetic material was left of the Primarchs and began work on augmenting regular men with their genes. This, coupled with extra augments and organs courtesy of the Emperor's design, were the beginning of the Space Marines. So with that, the Emperor finally launches his Great Crusade and one by one he searches for and finds his sons, the Primarchs. These Primarchs were then each gifted the Space Marine legions created with their genetic material, so they take these armies in as their "sons" both figuratively and literally. The Great Crusade goes pretty smoothly, worlds are rediscovered and reconquered, alien races are exterminated, and the Space Marine legions acquire greater glory for humanity. Over the course of this though 2 of the Primarchs and their Space Marines would become more or less exterminated and all records of them stripped from Imperial history, the reason for which is left vague. At the height of the Great Crusade an epic battle was won against the largest army of Orks ever recorded at the time (yes, orks exist in this universe). After this gigantic battle, the Emperor needed to return to earth in order to complete his plans that would allow humanity to prosper without having to rely on the dangerous realm of the warp for interstellar travel. Before leaving he grants Horus, his most trusted son, the title of "Warmaster", which effectively makes him the leader of all Imperial armies in the Emperor's absence. This was met with mixed reception by his brothers, the other Primarchs. Some felt they should've been warmaster, others felt Horus deserved the title. After many more decades of crusading, tragedy would strike. On the planet of Davin, Horus would be struck by a corrupted blade that even his demi-god-like abilities couldn't heal. Falling comatose, his sons would make the rash decision to bring him to the priests of Davin in hopes they could heal him. As it turns out, the entire population of Davin was corrupted by chaos and was working to corrupt Horus as well. Now it's hard to corrupt a Primarch both spiritually and physically, but ever since Horus was named Warmaster, he started having doubts in his mind. "Why would father leave us?" "Do I really deserve this title?". Those doubts caused cracks in his psyche that the gods exploited. They manipulated Horus into thinking that the Emperor was a tyrant who desires to enslave humanity in order to turn himself into a god (This was ironic considering the Emperor abolished all religion in place of science). Horus finally gave in and was turned to chaos. Convincing his sons and eventually a whole 8 other Primarchs (who all had individual doubts about their father) and their legions, he orchestrated full scale galactic civil war that would leave humanity in ruins all the while believing himself to be "saving" the species. The Horus Heresy as this war would later be called lasted around 9 years and found trillions of humans and hundreds of thousands of Space Marines dead. Primarchs too would also unbelievably be struck down, as 2 loyal Primarchs would die in defense of humanity. At the end of it all, Horus' forces were on earth itself. The Emperor, along with 2 Primarchs, their Space Marines, and the Emperor's own personal guard, teleported upon Horus' corrupted space ship called the Vengeful Spirit. Separated upon teleporting, each man fought to get to the bridge of the ship and kill Horus. The Emperor would get there eventually, but to his horror his son, the Primarch Sanguinius, would arrive there first but tragically died trying to defeat Horus. Then the Emperor and Horus fought. Each doing damage to each other but the Emperor sustaining more due to still believing his son to still be able to reject the evil that has corrupted him. Only after Horus casually and brutally obliterated a loyal servant trying to save the Emperor did he realize that his son was forever lost. Channeling his full psychic might, the Emperor blasted Horus so hard that he was ERASED from existence. Not even the gods could bring him back. Thus the traitors fled, and the war was finally won but not without great, great cost. The Emperor, nearly dead would be installed into a life support system known as the Golden Throne, where he would be kept barely alive and slowly rotting for the next 10,000 years while humanity begins to gradually fall into a state of fear and anarchy.
I love watching people seeing Warhammer for the first time, but if you want to go down the rabbit hole, I recommend bricky and his Warhammer faction videos. edit: there also pretty funny too.
The main guy of the trailer is called Horus Lupercal and he is a Primarch. The Primarchs are 20 almost demi-god like beings that are all the sons of The Emperor of Mankind. He's the "father" that Horus mentions near the end. The reason Horus betrays his own father is essentially because beings like the Primarchs aren't natural and they were all made in a lab with the DNA of the Emperor and a few other, more top secret ingredients. Back when they were still children growing in their lab tubes, 4 beings called the Chaos gods reached into the Emperor's secret laboratory from beyond the realm of reality and conjured magic powerful enough to break all of his magical wards and magic defenses around his baby sons. After they were broken, the gods whisked the 20 baby Primarchs away from their father and scattered them around to different planets all across the Milky Way galaxy Eventually the Emperor found all of his sons again, but everytime they asked him why they seemed to be scattered all across the galaxy seeing as they didn't remember anything, he basically told them that it was something he couldn't tell them about everytime. So because he didn't know about them, those same Chaos gods came back to Horus some time later and corrupted his soul by showing him a terrible future for mankind and telling him that it happens because of the Emperor, his father. On top of that they reveal the secrets to him, like that the "top secrets ingredients" the Primarchs are made of, is actually essence, knowledge and power that the Emperor stole from these gods which made the eternally despise him. They tell him that with their, help he has have to stop the Emperor because he has plans to subjugate all of humanity and that he, Horus, is humanity's only hope-failing to inform him that the very reason the future they showed him happens is because Horus rebels and destroys all hope and infrastructure his father had built. And thus, you have the Horus Heresy. Hope you understood!
Those big robots are Titans and there different types but usually have 4 - 8 people piloting each. There are smaller mechs knows as Knights piloted by 1 person, about the size of a medium house.
Horus heresy is big spin off of wh40k. Heresy takes place in 30k's years. Its a massive tabletop with more retro style of minis. Older armor, but higher tech.
