History
Kroegors 23rd Grand Battalion the butchers of flesh. "only the iron warriors share our conviction to see battle to its grisly end,they will sacrifice all to see battle carried on the day they will use overwhelming firepower and bombardment phosphex shot and shell weight of fire we prefer the buzzing of chainaxe the spray of arterial gore blood in our faces to look our enemy in the eye as we tear out his insides that is why we are the eaters of worlds and they are the iron within" eighth captain kharn from his unpublished treatise The Eighteen Legions kroegor was the sole survivor of a charge on an imperial fist held fortress on Hydra Cordatus. Perturabo personally impressed by his dedication to duty and ferocity honoured him with ascension to the rank of Triarch and command of his then decimated 23rd battalion.After heavy recruitment the 23rd quickly found itself called to the theatre of istvaan v positioned close to Perturabo on hill 63 to butcher the regrouping salamanders and raven guard.Kroegor sated his blood thirst on the black sands of istvaan and his Battalion champion valence kaden was a common hunting partner of the bloodied of the 37th company of night lords the blood drenched sands of istvaan still scream of the atrocities committed on Loyalist "survivors" by this duo.However a raven guard centurion is rumoured to have escaped this duos depravity and escaped off world nursing his hurts and the seeds of defeat and swearing vengeance no matter the cost.
