Just a missing space
Virus bombs were used on [[Armageddon]] during the [[Second War for Armageddon]]. [[Von Strab]] had a secret stash of them, put there by his family when the planet was colonized. They wreaked a terrible havoc on the invading [[Ork]]s but had lost their potency over time and did not have exactly the desired effect. The virus also has a tendency to blow with the winds, and during the Armageddon deployment, it washed back over the defending [[Imperial Guard]], killing as many defenders as attackers.
Virus bombs were also used on [[Isstvan III]] at the start of the [[Horus Heresy]] by [[Horus]]to bomb the [[Space Marines]] who remained loyal to the [[Emperor]].
