Kronus
Kronus is a world in the Lithesh Sector and the setting of Dawn of War’s Dark Crusade, in which seven armies contest its territory. The Imperium of Man first neglected the planet, after which the T’au established a colony there, before the seven armies arrived.
The campaign brought together several separate forces on the same map. Necron tombs lie beneath Thur’Abis, and Gorgutz’s rebuilt Waaagh, an Ork warband, fought across the surface. Farseer Taldeer led an Eldar strike force, and Eliphas the Inheritor pursued a Chaos campaign. These forces fought beside one another over the same ground.
The Blood Ravens, a Space Marine chapter led by Davian Thule, concluded the war in the Imperium’s favour. Their victory is the campaign’s Imperial outcome, and the Eldar and Chaos forces of Taldeer and Eliphas remain part of the same conflict.
