Cyclonus IV is an Agri-World and capital planet of the Cyclonus system, which holds 3 other habitated worlds of note. The planet sits near the entrance to the Maelstrom Gap and is fortified against any raids conducted by the Red Corsairs, serving as an early warning station and a staging ground for any mass Imperial responses. The Sons of Sanguinus Chapter chose the location as a host for the Angelic Feast, and it has served dutifully in that capacity since M37.
NAME: Cyclonus (Cyclonus IV)
SEGMENTUM: Ultima Segmentum
SECTOR: Prometheon Sector
SUBSECTOR: Teranor Subsector
SYSTEM: Cyclonus System
POPULATION: 7,500,000 est.
AFFILIATION: Imperium of Man
CLASS: Agri-World
Cyclonus IV is an idyllic world for human life, positioned at 1.08AU from its local star with an average temperature of 15.2C and displays extensive terraforming dating back to at least M22. The world produces massive amounts of food and livestock, almost all of which is exported to the Sector's nearby worlds as part of the Imperial Tithe. Following the Badab War in M41, the Imperium ordered the planet resettled, and the population multiplied by ten in the course of under a century. Orbital defense platforms were constructed and a Hive City named Absalon grew upon the surface, named after the Chapter Master of the Scions of Mars chapter. The Hive City produces war material and holds nearly 7 million people, the bulk of the planet's population; in times of war, it is heavily fortified and serves as an early bastion against the incursions of the Red Corsairs, who have become a serious threat under Lord Huron Blackheart.
