Armatura was a world of Ultramar during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.[1a]
During this time, Armatura was one of the three most important worlds of Ultramar alongside Macragge and Calth.[1a] A vital military base and war production centre, Armatura was home to both Ultramarines and Imperial Army training centres. Due to its strategic importance, Armatura boasted massive defences that included an array of Orbital Defence Platforms, a defence fleet, the Ultramarines Evocati garrison, thousands of Neophytes, the Legio Lysanda Titan Legion, Mechanicum Skitarii, and perhaps as many as one billion Imperial Army and Ultramar Defence Auxilia soldiers.[1a][1b]
The planet saw heavy fighting during the Shadow Crusade and was utterly devastated.[1]
