During the 13th Black Crusade the world (presumably Amistel Majoris) was invaded by Plague Marines and only with the arrival of the Drookian Fen Guard, Howling Griffons and Legio Astorum did the tide begin to turn[2][3]. However, vessels of the Death Guard later appeared in Amistel's orbit and unleashed a viral contagion onto the world, that was more virulent than anything Apothecaries have seen before. Its atmosphere is now so toxic that even Space Marines are unable to remain within it for long[4] and the fighting, between the Imperium and the forces of Chaos, has now devolved into vicious trench warfare; as the world falls into a state of anarchy.[2][3]
