Aurelianum

Imperium Portal

Aurelianum is the capital city of the planet Honoria.^[1a]

Much like all of the major settlements on Honoria, Aurelianum is very heavily fortified, with walls over a hundred metres high studded with a large number of weapon emplacements. It possesses eighteen great gates, twelve of which provide passage through the outer walls and six that access the Inner Citadel, a defensible redoubt for the inhabitants to fall back to should the outer walls be breached.^[1a]

The city saw heavy fighting during the Battle for Honoria, as it was the primary target of Warboss Groblonik and his Waaagh!.^[1c] Eventually, the warboss was killed in a duel with the Dark Angels Librarian Ezekiel and its Waaagh! was defeated.^[1d][2]
