Liberation of Saronican

From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Jump to: navigation, search

The Liberation of Saronican occurred during the Horus Heresy in 012.M31.[1]

The campaign was fought within the Saronican Gulf and was part of the Dark Angels' vengeance action. However, it was not waged by them directly, but instead by an allied Expeditionary force composed of elements of the Ultramarines and the Calth High Guard Solar Auxilia.[1]

History

They were directly dispatched to the Saronican Gulf by Lion El'Jonson, the Dark Angels' Primarch, after the Ultramarines became increasingly uneasy by his Legion's campaign of vengeance. Unaware of this truth, the Ultramarines and Calth High Guard Solar Auxilia followed their orders to pacify the Hive Worlds of the Saronican Gulf. Once there, the Expeditionary force engaged with rebellious Imperial Army Regiments and rogue fleets of the World Eaters across three systems. Eventually the Ultramarines and Calth High Guard emerged victorious, but by then they had been left behind by the Dark Angels. This allowed El'Jonson's Legion to freely move on to the next stages of their relentless campaign of extermination, without the scrutiny and increasing unease of the Ultramarines.[1]
