The Vandred Atrocity was a battle fought between the Imperium and Dark Eldar in 864.M41.[1]

Overview

Archon Thysk leads his Kabal of the Bloody Storm against Vandred, a feudal world from which the Angels Sanguine Space Marine Chapter recruits new aspirants. Sure enough, a strikeforce of Angels Sanguine makes planetfall within days, yet they are playing into the Archon’s hands. Thysk releases a blood-plague acquired at great cost from the Haemonculi Coven of the Altered, a virus that taps directly into the tragic gene curse of Sanguinius’ sons. Aware of their madness but unable to stop, the Angels Sanguine butcher and devour those they came to save before falling upon each other, while the Dark Eldar drink in the agony, terror and despair.[1]
