How to Unlock the Vheabos VI Colony in Rogue Trader¶

Vheabos VI can be found in the Mortus Acies system, which you’ll find in the far north of the Koronus Expanse. You can access Vheabos VI by following the warp routes from the Mundus Valancius system (Dargonus) onto Pelium Solitas, Narmer IV, and finally, Mortus Acies. Vheabos VI will be the planet in the northeast of the system, where you’ll need to complete the story segment there to unlock the colony.
