The Battle of Keylek was a battle fought by the Luna Wolves during the Great Crusade. Approximately 123 years into the Great Crusade, the Luna Wolves discovered the world of Keylek and the species that called it home, the keylekid.
科莱克之战是大远征期间影月苍狼的一场战斗。大远征大约123年后,影月苍狼发现了科莱克世界和称之为家园的种族凯莱基德。
Horus expected a prolonged struggle against such formidable foes, but the keylekid responded to the battle by first contact by assembling in large pre-exisitng staging grounds all over their domain and awaited the arrival of the Luna Wolves. The keylekid philosophy regarding warfare required them to fight only in these spaces, open-walled roofed structures several kilometres in area.
荷鲁斯预计会与如此强大的敌人进行长时间的战斗,但凯莱基德在首次接触时对战斗的反应是,在其领地内各处预先存在的集结地大规模集结,并等待影月苍狼的到来。凯莱基德关于战争的哲学要求他们只在这些空间内作战,这些空间是几公里范围内的开放式围墙有顶结构。
Maloghurst suggested that the rules of engagement remain in their favour. Rather than meet the keylekid in open combat as they expected, the Luna Wolves destroyed them from afar. The Wolves took to naming the keylekid battle halls "slaughterhouses."
马洛赫斯特建议交战规则仍然对他们有利。影月苍狼没有像他们预期的那样在公开战斗中遇到凯莱基德,而是从远处摧毁了他们。影月苍狼将凯莱基德战斗大厅称为“屠宰场”
A keylekid cadaver was preserved in the Museum of Conquest aboard the Vengeful Spirit, but the species is presumed extinct.
复仇之魂号上的征服博物馆保存了一具凯莱基德尸体,但该物种被认为已经灭绝。
