Pages from the Black Books – The Conquest of the Coronid Deeps

In the aftermath of the Dropsite Massacre, Horus began a campaign in the region of space known as the Coronid Deeps – one of the most heavily industrialised areas in the northern Imperium. Learn more about what happened in this part of the galaxy.

The Traitors began by unleashing their fury upon the Cyclops Cluster, quickly cutting off entire systems. The Warmaster then prepared the next part of his plan – letting loose Mortarion and his Death Guard. This lore and background was originally from The Horus Heresy Book Four: Conquest, first published in 2014. It follows the campaign from the Cyclops Cluster to the Manachean Commonwealth and features a host of information about some of the key planets.
