• Earliest Chaos Knights join Horus’ slaughters through unbreakable oaths stronger than life itself which they had taken upon themselves long ago, even before time began here on Earth.

• Battle of Beta-Garmon, “The Titandeath” (006-013.M31) – The Beta-Garmon star cluster was the site of one of history’s most devastating battles.

• Rise of the Idolaters (ca. M31-M36) – The Chaos Knights have not been destroyed since they were first discovered during socket war against humanity.
  

• Some in Imperium feel this may be because their power is tied to great leaders like Horus or else it could just mean that these particular units are more loyal than others, but even after being defeated by Traitor Guard forces on multiple occasions and Mars itself falling under assault from malignant machines called mammoths made out organics bloodletters zombiesorks mankillers monstrosities horrors.

The Knights that venture out onto the barge’s exterior face off against powerful opponents in order to buy time for those still inside who need more energy-based weapons before they can be extracted safely with Air Support abilities such as Rocket Launchers or fighter planes.

• Even these resources might not be enough when facedown at sea without any hope left.

• The Spoils of Fate – At first glance, it seems like any other Imperial world untouched by the ravages of time. But when nine Knight Worlds fall to corruption in just one solar decade?

Billions of people perish as a result of the procedure, crushed beneath ferrocrete slabs or buried in catastrophic cave-ins. However,

• Long forgotten ruins on several planets discovered by fallen noble overlords show that not all hope is lost for these worlds’ inhabitants—the discovery could lead them towards freedom! The Knight is home to a vast arsenal that was once prized by the Emailith Empire. During Second Edition’s waning years.

• The prospect of reinforcements arrives, but it is a fleeting hope. The Space Marines are immediately met with fire from the Knights who march onto their platforms and open up on them indiscriminately.

• There’s no time for strategy as they’re mere seconds away from death! The Imperial Navy’s fleet of ships arrived to refuel the aether-derrick atop Rho Zapphire, but not before overloading it with all they had. The core reactants inside each ship then went off in varying degrees depending on how much fuel was added.
