Segmentum Tempestus
War in the Heavens
Ichar IV

This is a heavily industrialised world. It's sprawling refineries and gigantic factories form a strategic lynch pin in the Ultima Segmentum. It is located in one of the few densely populated sectors in that Segmentum. It's principle hive is Lomas which acts as the seat of governemnt. In 992.M41 a swift but bloody revolt led by an organisation called the "Brotherhood" over threw the planetary government, most of whom were butchered in horrifying manner. As the planetary militias took control of the cities, the imperial guard units stationed out side began to surround and bombard the cities, forcing multiple bloody confrontations. Fortunately the Adeptes Arbites had held out in their precinct fortress for a long period and before it fell, had escaed through secret passages and captured the four power plants of the capital. As they were overwhelmed they destroyed these as a final act of defiance.

Prior to this many such instances of revolt and disturbances had occurred in worlds in the eastern fringes and inquisitorial teams from the fortress at Talasa Prime had been gathering evidence for a few years. The common factor amongst those causing the revolts was that they had all at some time travelled to the eastern fringes. The inquisition started a bloody purge of all who had travelled in such manner from Terra. It was in this light that Inquisitor Agmar accompanied a strike force of Ultramarines to retake the planet. As the Ultramarines seized the armouries and governors palace destroying the "Brotherhood" HQ, the Imperial Guard units commenced the assault from without.

An Ultramarine force of terminators led by a librarian teleported in to the Brotherhoods' cathedral fought their way underground against all forms of neophytes, as well as true genestealers. Finally the librarian killed the Patriarch in single combat, and the resistance crumbled and the planet was liberated within three weeks.
