Hydra Cordatus

Fig. 1 · Location on the map

Hydra Cordatus is a world with an Imperial Fists garrison, besieged and destroyed by Perturabo’s Iron Warriors (the First Siege of Hydra Cordatus, 007.M31); the survivors were slaughtered, refugees enslaved, the world turned into a desert. The gene-seed was plundered here, important later in the 40k.
