The Ambush at Sotha
Anvil of War
Category
Battle
Description
The force was an Incaladion incursion element under Magos Ilvarone, dispatched to Sotha to recover and catalogue Mechanicus property. Incaladion's standing in the Imperial rolls is entered here as it stands in the archive. The forge world declared for Horus during the Heresy and is today recorded as loyal. The source holdings contain no explicit record of its reconquest or reconciliation. This filing office does not resolve that gap and notes it only because the opposing party raised it.
On Sotha, elements of the Adeptus Ministorum disputed the Mechanicus claim to the recovery site. They regarded Incaladion personnel as tainted by their world's history, and the local clergy had preached accordingly. The force entered the contested ground expecting obstruction, not armed opposition. It was ambushed in the approach. German only
