Inconclusive More than 200 Titans clash on Maerdan; the world is cleft apart, with no victory.

One of the largest early Titan battles of the Heresy: loyal Legio Gryphonicus, Metalica and Destructor against the traitor Legio Mortis, Argentum and Vulturum on the colony world of Maerdan at the edge of the Segmentum Solar. More than two hundred Titans tore the world apart, and neither side could claim a true victory.
