Chogoris System

The Chogoris System is an Imperial star system located at coordinates MX/46359//m/AE (Location: Stellar Grid 183-SPN/JN-32) in the Yasan Sector of the Ultima Segmentum near the Warp rift known as the Maelstrom. The system is home to the White Scars Chapter homeworld of Chogoris, for which the system is named.

In 999.M41, Huron Blackheart, the Chaos Lord of the Red Corsairs Heretic Astartes warband, launched a massive invasion of the Yasan Sector out of the Maelstrom.

The bulk of the White Scars Chapter was deployed to other conflicts across the galaxy. The Chaos forces succeeded in occupying several systems within the sector and nearly overwhelming the White Scars garrison left on Chogoris itself.

While the White Scars were able to rally their forces and successfully threw back the Red Corsairs' assault on their fortress-monastery of Quan Zhou, only the ebbing of the Noctis Aeterna and the subsequent loss of their daemonic allies as a result convinced the Red Corsairs to withdraw from Chogoris and pursue the destruction of the White Scars at a later date.

However, the Red Corsairs have managed to maintain a presence on the Chogoris System world of Shovith and have essentially claimed the neighboring Gartuli and Thaxis Systems outright.

The Heretics are currently using these foothold sin the Yasan Sector to continue to launch new attacks upon the White Scars' homeworld.
