Orbital Hive 72
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Orbital Hive 72 was a hive city that orbited the Gas Giant Porphyr III.[1]
Overview
Orbital Hive 72 was held in orbit of Porphyr III by grav-syncs.[1]
It came under the control of Heretek Magos Ark Heiron, who commanded a large number of Traitor Guard and Servitors. The Orbital Hive was attacked by Black Templar Assault Squads, including Emperor's Champion Brother Bethuel, who confronted the Magos. However, Ark Heiron disabled the grav-syncs, causing Orbital Hive 72 to plummet to Porphyr III.[1]
