Bitter Sons
|
The Bitter Sons were an Iron Warriors Warband.[1a]
History
During the 13th Black Crusade, they were part of Abaddon the Despoiler's forces that invaded the Realm of Ultramar. They went on to attack the Hive World Ardium and conquer one of its three subterranean Hives, before fortifying its winding tunnel networks, as they expected the Ultramarines to come to save the Hive.[1]
During that time though, the Ultramarines's Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, was reborn and it was he who led the attack he upon Ardium to reclaim the world. The Primarch then led an attack with elements of the 4th and 6th Companies, along with some of Ardium's surviving PDF, which freed the captive Hive and destroyed the Bitter Sons Warband.[1b]
