A major supplier for [[Sabbat Worlds Crusade]], Orestes was attacked by a legion of [[Chaos Titans]] in 223.779[[M1]]. The Forge's own force of God-Machines, the [[Legio Tempestus]] was severely depleted through constant tithes to the Crusade, and stood no hope of holding off the hordes of Chaos. As luck would have it, the [[Legio Invicta]] was travelling past Orestes on their way to the Crusade main front after crushing a force of [[Eldar]] in the Beltran Cluster, and Lord Gearhart of Invicta comes to the Forge's aid.
Orestes was liberated from Chaos that same year, although the southernmost hives were destroyed in the fighting, and a great many engines and [[Imperial Guard]] were lost.
