The Abyssal Crusade was a massive military campaign undertaken in 321.M37 by the Adeptus Astartes of the Imperium of Man into the hellish realm known as the Eye of Terror located in the Segmentum Obscurus. The corrupt Imperial Saint Basillius passed judgement and 30 Space Marine Chapters were found wanting. The guilty embarked upon a Penitent Crusade into the Eye of Terror, to purge those worlds stolen by the birth of the Prince of Pleasure, Slaanesh. They succeeded in battling the Forces of Chaos across 400 worlds within the Eye, but suffered horrendous casualties. Thousands of Astartes were slain or corrupted by Chaos. In the aftermath of the Abyssal Crusade, the number of raids conducted by Chaos Space Marines on worlds in Imperial space increased dramatically.
