Hive Tempestora
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Hive Tempestora was a hive city on the planet Armageddon, located on the north coast of the Armageddon Prime continent.[1][3]
The hive was invaded by the orks during the Third War for Armageddon. The greenskins were able to circumvent the hive's defensive network by launching a fleet of submersibles which crossed the Boiling Sea and attacked from the water. Now, ironically, the Morpheon Line that was initially created to defend the city from attacks from the south is instead the only thing containing the orks within the ruins of Tempestora, preventing them from reinforcing the hordes besieging Hive Volcanus and Hive Death Mire.[3]
Prior to its fall, Tempestora was host to a Sanctorum of the Order of Our Martyred Lady.[2]
