Everything below is for the omnissiah. But like, you can read it if you want. Just a synopsis of the video you're watching.
The story begins with the Ullanor Campaign, a massive military operation during the Great Crusade. The Emperor of Mankind and his Primarchs, including Horus, led the Imperial forces against the Ork empire of Overlord Urlakk Urg. This campaign was pivotal, as it marked one of the largest and most crucial victories for the Imperium. The defeat of the Orks on Ullanor was celebrated with the Ullanor Triumph, during which the Emperor declared Horus as Warmaster, setting the stage for future events in the galaxy.
The War of the Beast was a devastating conflict, during this period, an Ork Warlord, known as The Beast, rose to power, leading a Waaagh! of unprecedented scale and ferocity. With Ullanor as the heart of this massive Ork empire. The rediscovery of Ullanor, now transformed into a world of industry and war under Ork dominion, was a symbolic and strategic blow to the Imperium.
The First War for Armageddon erupted millennia later, during the 41st Millennium. This conflict was sparked by the return of the daemon Primarch Angron and his World Eaters. Seeking to conquer Armageddon, Angron led a daemonic invasion that brought chaos and destruction. The Space Wolves, led by Logan Grimnar, alongside elements of the Grey Knights, confronted the chaos forces in a brutal and bloody conflict. The war ended with the banishment of Angron, but not without immense loss and devastation.
The Second War for Armageddon saw the return of the Orks, led by the infamous warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka. In 941.M41, Ghazghkull launched a massive Waaagh! against Armageddon, overwhelming the planet's defenses. The war was characterized by brutal city fights, large-scale tank battles, and the resilience of Armageddon's defenders. Commissar Yarrick emerged as a hero, his legendary determination and leadership inspiring the Imperial forces. Despite heavy losses, the combined efforts of the Imperial Guard, Space Marines, and local militias eventually repelled the Ork invasion, but the threat was far from over.
The Third War for Armageddon began in 998.M41, with Ghazghkull returning to Armageddon, this time with an even larger Ork horde. The conflict quickly escalated into one of the largest wars in Imperial history. The warzones were marked by intense battles, including the defense of Hive Acheron and the struggle for Hive Helsreach. Notable participants included the Black Templars, led by High Marshal Helbrecht, and the Salamanders, under Captain Tu'Shan. The war also saw the return of Commissar Yarrick, now a living legend. Despite the relentless Ork assault, the Imperial forces managed to hold their ground, but the war remains ongoing, with no clear end in sight.
The wars of Armageddon have left an indelible mark on the history of the Imperium. The planet remains a symbol of resilience and determination, with each conflict bringing forth heroes and legends. The repeated invasions have turned Armageddon into a fortress world, its people hardened by constant warfare. The lessons learned from these wars have influenced Imperial strategy and doctrine, emphasizing the importance of unity and the relentless fight against the enemies of mankind.
Throughout these wars, several key battles and figures have stood out. The defense of Hive Helsreach by the Black Templars, the tank battles in the ash wastes, and the leadership of figures like Commissar Yarrick and High Marshal Helbrecht have become legendary. The conflicts have also highlighted the importance of the Adeptus Astartes, the Imperial Guard, and the local militias, each playing crucial roles in the defense of Armageddon.
