During Saint Sabbat's original crusade to liberate the sector from Chaos, Herodor was where she rested to cleanse her wounds; as a result the waters of the Civitas became a sacred site, although the planet itself was of little strategic importance.[1]
During the later stages of the Sabbat Worlds Crusade, the world was assaulted by a massive Chaos force led by Magister Enok Innokenti, because of the rumour that a reincarnated Saint Sabbat was marshalling Imperial forces on the planet. In the battle which ensued, the Saint did apparently appear to lead the Imperial forces to eventual victory.[1]
During the climatic battle of the Old Hive, she killed Innokenti in single combat and then led a Imperial counterattack supported by surviving PDF, Guard and irregular pilgrim soldiers until the Imperial reinforcements that were recently redeployed from Morlond came to relieve the Imperial forces.[1]
This was a significant victory for the Crusade as a whole as it helped not only stall but demoralise and scatter the Chaos forces led by Innokenti and help create a second front for the Crusade to push into.[1]
