The Gravespite Massacre was a battle that saw a Space Wolves strike force, led by Ragnar Blackmane, defeat the Word Bearers allies of the Chaos Champion Ghorox Bloodfist.[1]

History

After the Chaos Champion had killed Blackmane's Wolf Lord, Berek Thunderfist, the Space Wolf avenged his death by tracking down and killing Bloodfist in 983.M41. However Blackmane was not sated with the Champion's death and he then led a hand-picked Space Wolves strike force to battle against Bloodfist's Word Bearers allies. The Traitor Legion was later defeated by Ragnar's forces, in what became known as the Gravespite Massacre.[1]
