The '''Blackskulls''' are an [[Ork Tribe]], which were once led by [[Warboss|Boss]] [[Magzthrull]].{{Fn|1}}
==History==
They took part in the [[Third War for Armageddon]], where the Blackskulls overran the '''Hemlock Cordon''' near [[Hive Acheron]].{{Fn|2}} [[Magzthrull]] also led the [[Ork Tribe|Tribe]] in attacking the city of [[Palonious]]. It was already defended by elements of the [[141st Armageddon Steel Legion]], due to city containing the vital [[Averneas]] forge complex, but the [[Regiment]] became ravaged, by the Blackskulls' constant attacks. This led the [[Salamanders]] [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Su'than]] to be sent to Palonious, with a force from his [[Chapter]], to ensure that Averneas did not fall to the Ork Tribe.{{Fn|1}}
