>Kydov Front M41.997-Ongoing:
>Following the eruption of warp storms in the Kydov subsector a Slaaneshi cult known as the Veiled Exultation managed to take over the capital city of the industrial world of New Kydov, itself the heart of the Kydov subsector. The Coal hearts responded in chapter strength after the defection of the first Guard regiments deployed to suppress the uprising. Only for a chaos ritual to summon a terrible localized warp storm over the city mid drop. The ritual also summoned a Keeper of Secrets and thinned reality allowing demons to spill out and reinforce the cultists. The resulting psychic shock wave killed most of the chapter's librarians as they tried to shield their brothers and inflicted hallucinations and catatonia in the survivors. Cut off from one another and landing off course the Coal Hearts were caught in rolling ambushes throughout the city they had come to liberate. The roiling storm of warp energy cut them off from orbital support and disrupted even local communications.

>The chapter’s protective nature was turned against them as the populace were used as maddened human shields and driven into the chapter’s lines ahead of the traitors and warp spawn. Luckily the Keeper at the heart of the cult was banished by an inquisitorial strike force alongside chapter master Dante Kattai and his honour guard, though at the cost of all their lives. This dispelled the storm and allowed the fleet in orbit to provide support and evacuate the survivors before obliterating the corrupted metropolis. This promptly escalated to a general exterminatus of all major planetary population centers on orders from the Inquisition. After the chapter's mauling the inquisition followed up with an aggressive investigation believing only treachery could have led to it. However the chapter survivors were declared to be free of taint. The Coal Hearts were so badly damaged they focused all their efforts on rebuilding for the next decade.

Anybody play a game this week? I got to play against Weaters with the Night Fighting twist. Funnily enough it changed nothing for either of us since most of my shooting is only 12” anyway. My opponent got a pic of my bladeguard slapping the shit out of his terminators before Kharn could show up.
