History
Jago is an ancient fortress world that was assaulted by the Imperial Guard during the Sabbat Worlds Crusade(778.M41). Formerly held completely by warriors of the Blood Pact (Chaos army under the command of Archenemy Overlord Urlock Gaur), the Guard drove the enemy to a standstill. The most notable fortress is that of Hinzerhaus.
Terrain
Jago's terrain is mostly flat desert with massive mountain ranges dividing the planet. Trenches, partially filled in by millennium of dust storms, cover the landscape. Barracks ,trenches, pillboxes and fortifications, far too large to have ever been built by Humans or any of the known xenos pattern the entire planet, towering far above and far below the surface.
Notoriety
Commanded by General Van Voytz the Tanith First and Only, led by Colonel-Commissar Gaunt, moved to cover the flank of the offensive force by capturing and defending the fortress Hinzerhaus.
Hinzerhaus
Hinzerhaus is an ancient fortress built into the side of a mountain on the planet Jago. Hinzerhaus was built long before the Imperium, possibly before the dawn of the species. It was not built by Humans or any known Xeno species.
The fortress is heavily fortified, with sixteen defensive layers of gunboxes and numerous overwatch towers.
The Tanith First and Only occupied Hinzerhaus during the Sabbat Worlds Crusade. The Tanith suffered heavy casualties defending the building from Blood Pact warriors. Almost half of the Tanith were lost in the battle, and at a point the leader, Gaunt was deemed lost also.
