Disputed in the canon

  • The record’s sole support is a chronology line: Legions Imperialis Rulebook (2023). The canon gives no details of the siege of the Imperial Fists’ home world — neither forces nor outcome in detail; hence the scale of 2 out of 5. The Shattered Legions context is taken from the Lexicanum article “Shattered Legions”.
