The Dispute of Iron
The Dispute of Iron occurred from 600.M34 to 730.M34, when a vast civil war erupted on the Daemon World Medrengard amongst the Iron Warriors and rapidly spread to their other domains. Ancient pacts of fealty and alliance are called upon and scores of Chaos Space Marine warbands, Chaos Cults and Traitor Titan Legions are drawn into the maelstrom of relentless battle. This bitter feud is accredited with the creation several sub-factions of the Iron Warriors still active to this day, such as the Steel Brethren, while utterly destroying others such as the Shattered Tower. As abruptly as it began the war suddenly ended, leading some to believe that the conflict had been carried out according to the Daemon Primarch Perturabo's design, in order to weed out the weak and the unworthy from his scions.[1]
