History
In the aftermath of the 13th Black Crusade and opening of the Great Rift, Raeddon fell prey to the machinations of the Black Legion. The Adeptus Mechanicus Tech-Priests gathered their most sacred relics in preparation of evacuating them off-world in order to protect them from the Great Rift; but, before the ships were loaded, a fleet of Black Legion warships emerged, forming a blockade around the planet. Before long, hordes of Chaos Space Marines descended upon the forge world. The bulk of its Skitarii defenders were deployed to guard the basilica logisticum where the Mechanicus had stored their invaluable archeotech. However, the Chaos forces did not even attempt to lay siege to this complex. Instead, they conducted a series of devastating orbital bombardments on the planet’s spaceports, obliterating their static lascannon arrays before sending in waves of ground troops to mop up the remaining Skitarii. With Raeddon stripped of its transport capabilities, the Black Legion armada receded, leaving the Tech-Priests and their precious relics untouched as the warp storms envelop them.[1]
