Conquest of Atmos

The Conquest of Atmos was a joint-xenocidal purgation campaign carried by the brutal and ferocious Blood Scorpions and Flesh Tearers Space Marine Chapters against a vile Drukhari Kabal upon the vital Imperial hive world of Atmos. This grinding and bloody campaign lasted for six years, resulting in the death of billions of Imperial citizens. During the final battle of the campaign, outnumbered 3-to-1, the Flesh Tearers let their rage get the better of them, and were drawn into a cunning trap for their scheming xenos. Surrounded on all sides, the Flesh Tearers vowed to sell their lives dearly, when they received salvation in the form of their cousin Chapter - the Blood Scorpions - who viciously fought their way through the Drukhari's numberless ranks. Standing side-by-side, the two Chapters launched a ferocious counter-attack, and in a final assault, eradicated the Drukhari in a hail of blood and gore.
