Conquest of Galaspar
The Conquest of Galaspar was fought on the hive world Galaspar in the Galaspar System during the Great Crusade. No year is recorded. The world’s ruling junta, known as the Order, had fired on Imperial explorator vessels. The Death Guard, led by Mortarion, destroyed the Order. During the fighting, Calas Typhon, then a sergeant, was caught in a landslide that killed the warriors around him, including First Captain Antavus Barrazin. Galaspar was later seized by forces loyal to Horus during the Horus Heresy, and Corvus Corax sent a battlegroup to retake it. Calas Typhon is not recorded as taking part in that later fighting. Mortarion led the landing from his assault barque, the Fourth Horseman, which drove into Galaspar’s primary hive.
