Editing Kandam (section)

==Planetary History==
The history of Kandam is one marked with [[Dark Eldar]] raids every few years and an odd additon of augmentions. For the most part raids of a small scale, the raid that created a need for an [[Imperial Guard]] unit was one of massive proportions. During the raid itself the Forgemoons were under siege along with the many ocean cities covering the ocean floor of Kandam.

During the siege of Kandam itself, several hives were overwhelmed but for the most part held onto control due to no small part of the augmentations that the forgemoons saw fit to give the workers and [[servitor]]s on the planet. After the few advances started to stall the [[xenos]] turned to vile trickery with attacks against the smokestacks vital to the life of the ocean cities. While the siege was at its most climactic hour an artifact from the [[Ruinous Powers]] slipped into the dark depths of the ocean, twisting the native creatures into monsters of size and scope never before seen. The sea monsters rose from the oceans and attacked the Forges and Hives, dealing mass devastation along with mass casualties. But, thankfully the determination of the Adeptus Mechanicus and the people of Kandam survived long enough for [[Space Marine]]s of the [[Defenestrators]] [[Chapter]] to arrive, and with their glorious windows killed many of the vile beasts and drove off the Dark Eldar. 

With the damage done and the forgemoons pushing back, the Dark Eldar withdrew back to the vile space that they call home, but they left something that to this day harms Kandam. The forgemoons themselves rebuilding after the raid, the task of defeating these monsters was placed upon the lacking planetary defense forces.
