Anshur was a Hive World of the Imperium that was destroyed by the daemon An'ggrath.[1]


History

In the latter years of M38, the hive world's population was corrupted into worshiping Khorne by the Charnel Cult. After the Cult destroyed an Adeptus Administratum tithe fleet sent to collect the Hive World's tribute to the Imperium, the Metamarines Chapter arrived in force with five Companies to cull the corrupted populace.[1]

As the battle commenced, the Charnel Cult was pushed back by the Metamarines and in desperation began a summon ritual to call for aid from their Daemonic allies. Instead, the Bloodthirster An'ggrath answered their call and proceeded to kill every living soul on the Hive World.[1]
