Anvillus is a Forge World of the Imperium.[1] Dating back to the time of the Great Crusade, it was known to be one of the few Forge Worlds that could rival Mars in manufacturing capacity.[4]
Overview
During the Great Crusade, the Blood Angels established a long tradition of acting as the honour guard of Anvillus. By the outbreak of the Horus Heresy, a demi-company was stationed on the Forge World as it tore itself apart in civil war between the loyalist and traitor Mechanicum. Though order was eventually restored to Anvillus, none spoke of the fate that befell the Blood Angels there. However, each year on the exact anniversary of the Anvillus war, a warp-barge from Anvillus arrives at Baal bearing tribute in the form of exactly one half a company's worth of arms and armour.[3]
Anvillus is known for the construction of Warlord Battle Titans of the Mars-Alpha Pattern.[1]
