Remnants

"The Janus 6th has pressed deep into enemy-held territory, securing a monastery dedicated to the Holy God-Emperor. Even as we go to press, they crush all remnants of the PDF that seek to oust their successful beachhead in Solthane."

- A publication of the Eagle & Bolter, prior to the complete destruction of the Janus 6th regiment.

The Remnants were once the Planetary Defence Force of Kathur. When the Shrine World became overrun by Plague Zombies, their surviving members turned to the diseased influence of Nurgle.

Despite their unkempt appearance, still donning their filth-ridden PDF uniforms, Remnant forces were relatively well equipped. They boasted a number of snipers, heavy weapons teams and were well stocked with a variety of explosives. This allowed them to completely wipe out the Janus 6th regiment of the Imperial Guard, who had been sent to recapture Kathur's desecrated cathedral.

Unfortunately for the Remnants, however, they could not match the Cadian 88th. Even with the added assistance of the Death Guard, many of their number were lost to the Armoured Infantry regiment, bolstered by the elite Kasrkin of Strike Team Cruor and led by the famed Warden-Captain Parmenion Thade.
