Tetrahric Uprising

The Tetrahric Uprising began when when a dozen once loyal worlds turned from the light of the Emperor and rebelled against the Imperium. In response, the Solar Hawks Chapter invaded the rebellious worlds and waged a campaign that saw hundreds of vicious tank-on-tank engagements that successfully ended the Uprising. The Battle of Brokentread Plain, on Haus K5, remains the most well-known though; there, a single Solar Hawks strikeforce, consisting of a hundred vehicles, faced thousands of renegade Leman Russ tanks. For days, the two sides duelled through the dust kicked up from grinding treads and booming cannons until at last only a graveyard of shattered rebel armour remained.[1]
