==Overview==
The campaign first began when a [[Space Hulk]] was spotted heading towards the [[Industrial World]] of [[Jhalheid Secundus]]. The [[Bloodmaws]] [[Great Company]] under [[Bran Redmaw]] was dispatched to deal with the threat. When his ships arrived in the system, they found segments of the Hulk had broken off and were now slamming into worlds across the [[Systemsystem]]. Moreover. Bran's [[Rune Priest]]s were able to sense the psychic aggression of the [[Ork]]s aboard the hulk, now dubbed ''[[Krakamorg]]''.{{Fn|1}}
Bran unleashed his [[Battle Leader]]s , [[Ruarik]] and [[Svingar Eyestrike]] , with half of his forces to hunt down the fragments of the Space Hulk which had begun to assault other worlds while Bran led an assault on the main portion directly. Bran was able to lead a boarding attack directly onto the vessel with his strike craft, manoeuvring through fields of debris and Ork turret fire. Over a dozen packs of the Bloodmaws were able to land onto the Hulk and force their way inside divided into forces under Bran himself, [[Company Champion]] [[Torgun Bloodpelt]], and [[Wolf Priest]] [[Ulaf Speargyde]]. Each of these targeted an individual vessel inside the hulk. Inside, the Imperials were immediately assailed by the Orks. It was revealed that the Orks had been on the Hulk for many years and had built an elaborate tunnel network throughout the Hulk that allowed them to converge en masse.{{Fn|1}}
Meanwhile, Torgun led [[EradicatorSquad|Eradicators]]s and [[Intercessor]]s against mobs of Orks as big as cave bears. Ulaf's forces were able to buy enough time for [[Iron Priest]]s to lay charges on the [[Warp Drive]] core of one of the entombed vessels within the Hulk. However , as victory seemed near, the Space Wolves received notice that two more Hulks were spotted entering the [[Jhalheid System]].{{Fn|1}}
