The '''Carnage of Morox{{PAGENAME}}''' was a large-scale battle of the [[Horus Heresy]] and [[Great Scouring]].{{Fn|1}}
Fought from 009.[[M31]] all the way to 053.[[M31]] (into the [[Great Scouring]]), it was one of the largest confrontations between Loyalist and Traitor-aligned [[Imperial Army]] forces. Both sides sought control of the [[Sector]] capital world of [[Morox Excellus]]. Due to turbulent [[Warp Storm]]s, the sector was largely isolated from the rest of the [[Galaxy]] and the war was fought with little outside interference. Despite the lack of strategic significance for the wider conflict, it was noted for its massive level of atrocity and rapid technological regression by both sides. Ultimately, 3 billion battlefield deaths were recorded.{{Fn|1}}
