Battle of Goreshore

The Battle of Goreshore was a xenocidal purgation campaign carried out by the Thunder Guardians Space Marine Chapter against the threats of invading Orks on the Imperial world of Keddian.

Background
When Orks once again invaded a nearby system of the ever vigilant Thunder Guardians Chapter, they immediately dispatched the entirety of the Chapter to the besieged world of Keddian in the Kelid Sector to assist the beleaguered Imperial defenders. Though the Astra Militarum forces put up a valiant defence, and event bravely launched an all-out assault against the the greenskin forces, they were woefully outmatched, numberwise, and sustain extensive casualties. Especially when they assaulted the Ork-occupied Fort Gallupoly.

Facing their inevitable defeat, they were saved by the timely arrival of the Thunder Guardians Chapter, which immediately launched an orbital assault upon the orks' position. Launching their drop pods and thunderhawk gunships, they utilised the distraction of the Astra Militarum defenders who took the brunt of the greenskin attack and outflanked the attacking orks and annihilated the remaining greenskin forces.
