Hive Volcanus
The Hive Volcanus region is on the far western edge of Armageddon Prime. Situated at the estuary of the Erebus River, its two most obvious features are the many islands to the west and the gigantic mountain ranges to the south. The Volcanus Mountains and Volcanus Ridge cover most of the southern half of the area and atop the largest mountain is the Volcanus Mountain Space Defence Fortress, which was overrun by Orks from the dropsite to the east. The easiest path through the mountains is the Mannheim Gap, named after the Iron Skulls Titan Legion leader Kurtiz Mannheim.
Hive Volcanus itself occupies the central area of the region with a motorway leading eastwards to the Vulcan Bridge over the Erebus river. In the west, on a number of the islands is the Volcanus Archipelago Offshore Defences which patrol the rivers and waterways leading up to Volcanus Hive, also the Nemesis Island Penal Facility is located nearby, holding the worst criminals from Armageddon Prime.
