The Chelob Hammerers were a group of Imperial Army units that participated in the last years of the Great Crusade and went on to fight in the Hektor Heresy and Great Scouring.
Background
Chelob Hold was settled near the Galactic core early in the Dark Age of Technology. Initially, the settlement focused on mineral extraction. However, with a growing population, the world became an important industrial centre. Although the Men of Iron ravaged the Core as they did the whole of human civilisation, the doughty mining folk of Chelob Hold and its neighbouring worlds rebounded fairly quickly with a new and distinctive culture. Powerful warrior-aristocrats arose, but soon set aside the tools of war and focused themselves on trade as the best means of acquiring wealth and treasure for their worlds. Though the industrial worlds of the core occasionally warred with one another, they were able to establish a loose alliance, known as the Core Worlds Confederation, that obliged them to band together against external threats. Chelob Hold stood as the second-most powerful world in the alliance, after their historic rival, Kazara.
The Core Worlds' first encounter with the growing Imperium was amicable. Rogue Traders moving ahead of the Great Crusade were delighted at the economic opportunities on offer.
