The Purge - Notable Campaigns: Antecanis Massacre (165.M37) - The Purge is known to have participated in the Antecanis Massacre in 165.M37 alongside the Black Legion and other Chaos Space Marine warbands.Hell's Last Duke (931.M38) - The space hulk Hell's Last Duke ploughs into the surface of the world of Bereguel Tertia, causing an extinction-level event. Many of the world's most valuable dignitaries save themselves by taking to underground bunkers as the massive nightmare bulk of the space hulk burns through the atmosphere. Though they believe themselves to have escaped the worst of the disaster, the dignitaries soon learn otherwise when the Renegade Space Marines of The Purge emerge from the heart of the hulk and begin to hunt them down. The Space Marines of the Fire Lords Chapter receive the distress call and divert their Imperial Crusade to make planetfall upon Bereguel. Their Centurion Siegebreaker Cohorts bore holes into the rockcrete of the hulk, leading a massed assault right into the dark chamber that serves as its bridge. A close-quarters battle breaks out, and though the Fire Lords lose several of their Centurions in the process, the grisly death of The Purge's Chaos Lord Doluthec ensures the warband is left leaderless and eventually defeated.Siege of Vraks (813-830.M41) - The Purge were one of the Chaos Space Marine warbands that answered the call of the Chaos Lord Arkos the Faithless of the Alpha Legion to support the defence of the forces of Chaos entrenched on the Armoury World of Vraks from the assault of the Imperium of Man. After the Siege of Vraks ended with the fall of that benighted world to Imperial forces in a horrifically costly military campaign in 830.M41, The Purge fled off-world.Corruption of Bellru & Fealty II (884.M40) - Possessed Chaos Space Marines guide a fleet of The Purge's rusted plague ships through a squall of unnavigable Warp storms to seed the Agri-worlds of Bellru and Fealty II with vile diseases. Given their small numbers, The Purge spread an impressive amount of death and destruction. On each world, they send their plague ships plunging down into the oceans and onto land. The broken hulls empty out deadly spores into the atmosphere, infecting billions of inhabitants.Vaxhallian Genocides (926.M41) - In the year 926.M41, The Purge sought to vent their hatred of all living things, and chose the verdant Imperial world of Vaxhallia as their victim. The planet's surface was soon riddled with consumptive disease and crippling famine. Over the course of a single solar month, The Purge engineered the destruction of no fewer than 14 billion Imperial citizens, laying claim to the plague-ridden world.Ke'lshan Besieged (998.M41) - The Purge warband lays siege to the beleaguered T'au Sept World of Ke'lshan, which is recovering after a series of attritions caused by assaults from both the Imperium and Hive Fleet Gorgon. The Heretic Astartes' attempt to corrupt the world's atmosphere, turning it into a corrosive soup that would cleanse the planet of all life, are foiled at great cost by Fio'O Sho'Aun, renowned T'au artificer and weaponsmith, whose experimental Remora drone-fighters duel with airborne Blight Drones for control of the skies of Ke'lshan.Invasion of Medusa (Unknown Date.M42) - Alongside warbands of The Cleaved, The Purge and several other Nurglite Renegade forces, the Chaos Lord Typhus leads the Death Guard's 1st Plague Company in a shocking raid against the Iron Hands' Chapter Planet, Medusa, at the dawn of the Era Indomitus. The Iron Hands' clan companies drive off their attackers, but not before terrible damage is done, leaving regions of the planet as cursed quarantine zones.Battle of Örgvayr (Unknown Date.M42) - The Battle of Örgvayr was a conflict that erupted between the Kin of the Leagues of Votann's Greater Thurian League and the forces of Chaos near Warp Storm Örgvayr. The fighting began after the opening of the Great Rift in the Era Indomitus provided the servants of Chaos with greater opportunities to enter Kin space in the galactic core than ever before. Despite assaults by warbands of the World Eaters and The Purge Heretic Astartes upon the Thurian Cthonian Mining Guild harvester fortresses present on the volcanic Kin World of Törg, the Oathbands of the Thurian Kindred of Vôrtun were able to rescue both the miners and much of their valuable harvested raw materials under the command of Kâhl Ûthar the Destined, as well as slay the World Eaters Chaos Lord Hakatar. However, the conflict remains an ongoing one, and the Heretic Astartes and their allies continue to reinforce their numbers through the Warp storm. The northeastern region of Thurian space has now become a warzone known as the "Stormward Front."
