Defence of Tyrheim

The Defence of Tyrheim was an Imperial defensive campaign carried out by the Tempest Wolves Space Marine Chapter against Orks of WAAAGH! Death'and, to defend the world of the Tyrheim Sub-Sector.

History
This campaign was a sub-sector wide defence of Tyrheim and its surrounding planets and is technically still ongoing. The attack was led by Ork Warlord Kork Death'and of the Blood Axe Clan and his Waaagh! Like the Beast of Armageddon, Kork proved to be a deadly commander able to plan ahead and keep the over clans that made up his force under his control through very ork like motivation. Alongside the Tyrheim Warhost and PDFs and the legendary Warrior Cults they held out for years slowly breaking enemy fronts and driving them back. Behind the lines the defenders also had to deal with chaos cults causing problems along supply routes that skirted the mountains.
