Born on the blood-soaked sands of the Urgall Depression, the Shattered Legions were the consequence of betrayal and fratricide of the Istvaan V Drop Site Massacre, where three entire Space Marine Legions were rendered all but destroyed -- the Salamanders, Raven Guard and Iron Hands -- all cast down by the treachery of their supposed brothers when the Word Bearers, Night Lords, Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion forces that constituted the second wave of the Loyalist assault revealed their true allegiance to the Warmaster Horus. Of the hundreds of thousands of Legiones Astartes warriors committed to the initial drop, ten thousands more would be cut down in the brutal pursuit that followed and the titanic void battle that ensued between the Traitor and Loyalist fleets throughout the Istvaan Syst

abstract	Born on the blood-soaked sands of the Urgall Depression, the Shattered Legions were the consequence of betrayal and fratricide of the Istvaan V Drop Site Massacre, where three entire Space Marine Legions were rendered all but destroyed -- the Salamanders, Raven Guard and Iron Hands -- all cast down by the treachery of their supposed brothers when the Word Bearers, Night Lords, Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion forces that constituted the second wave of the Loyalist assault revealed their true allegiance to the Warmaster Horus. Of the hundreds of thousands of Legiones Astartes warriors committed to the initial drop, ten thousands more would be cut down in the brutal pursuit that followed and the titanic void battle that ensued between the Traitor and Loyalist fleets throughout the Istvaan System. In the solar days and weeks following the Drop Site Massacre, elements of the Iron Hands, Salamanders and Raven Guard were scattered far and wide across the northern Imperium, having been forced to make hastily plotted Warp jumps to escape the Traitors' ambush. While some scattered alone, it was also the case that vessels of all three Legions came together in small clusters in the darkness, wounded and distrustful of one another following the massacre, and violently shorn from their Legion's chain of command. Often, once damage was repaired and wounds bound, these clustered forces split apart again to seek their own path, often cast wide by the burgeoning Warp Storms that would slowly erupt into the great Ruinstorm, in order to find their way back to their homes or reliable commands, but in other instances, these ragged squadrons remained together, seeking better odds of survival in a galaxy at war in the company of allies who had borne the same savage trial they had, and so were the Shattered Legions born.
