Assault on Beroghast
The Assault on Beroghast was a battle in 963.M41 between Ork forces under Warboss Snappaklaw and the Imperium.[1]
Overview
Snappaklaw led his large Waaagh! on the Ice World of Beroghast, swiftly overwhelming its defenders. The Grey Knights Second Brotherhood under Brother-Captain Arno Trevan arrived to defend the planet, masterminding a series of decisive strikes to cut off the greenskin supply lines. The final blow was delivered on the banks of the River Gandor, where Trevan and his closest warriors ambushed and slew Snappaklaw himself. Three days later, Space Marines of the Fire Lords Chapter under the command of Chapter Master Jaric Phoros arrived to discover the Orks in full retreat, with the local primitive tribes speaking of their "steel saviours."[1]
