'''{{PAGENAMEGalaxyPortal}}'''Aegis''' is an [[Agri World]], that became a major battlefield during the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}
The initial battles between the forces of [[Horus]] and the [[Imperium]] on {{PAGENAME}}, left both sides decimated and would have been the end of the world's part in the Horus Heresy, had the [[Sigillite]] not intervened. As unknown to Horus and the Imperium, there was a hidden resource on {{PAGENAME}} that the Sigillite wished to claim and ordered that the world would be conquered for the [[Emperor]], no matter the cost. Though both battered sides were preparing to evacuate {{PAGENAME}}, the Imperium's forces immediately redeployed once the Sigillite's order was received from [[Terra]]; but unfortunately, Horus' forces also intercepted the message. Once they learned how important {{PAGENAME}} was, the traitors re-entered the battlefield as well, in order to prevent the Sigillite from recovering the world's hidden resource. As the new war between both sides dragged on, reinforcements for both sides frequently arrived and the subsequent battles resulted in thousands of deaths, that left {{PAGENAME}} largely devastated. [[Blackshields]] and even some of the [[Primarch]]s themselves, were drawn into the conflict and the war on {{PAGENAME}} became one of the most important battles in the [[Shadow Wars]]. However, despite its importance, the final outcome of the war is unknown.{{Fn|1}} ==See AlsoRelated Articles==
