Second Zaramund Campaign
The Second Zaramund Campaign was a battle of the Horus Heresy.
The battle saw Luther and his Fallen Dark Angels return to Zaramund, finding it already contested between those loyal to Horus and those loyal to the Emperor. Luther reestablished order in defiance of the Lion's edict to remain on Caliban. During the battle, the Fallen captured the Imperial Fists Battle Barge Faithful Servant along with 2 Cruisers and a number of Frigates.[1][2]
Following the battle Luther's forces were shocked to discover a fleet led by Calas Typhon aboard the Terminus Est arrive in the Zaramund system. They were fleeing Dark Angels forces under Corswain, and sought aid. However Luther refused to pledge himself to the Warmaster's cause and instead hid the Death Guard fleet in the void of space by having their ships power down. Upon the arrival of the Dark Angels fleet, Luther deceived Corswain by stating he had driven away the Death Guard fleet.[1]
