Black Reach (possibly Blackreach[1]) is a large Hive World located in the south of the Ultima Segmentum, not far from the planetary realm of Ultramar and the Ultramarines homeworld of Macragge.[Needs Citation]
It is probably best known for the incident known as the Assault on Black Reach in 855.M41, in which Waaagh! Zanzag descended on the planet[1] and was eventually defeated by the Ultramarines' 2nd Company, under Captain Cato Sicarius.[2]
