WOEBETIDE CLEANSING (829.M41)

After receiving a distorted astropathic communication from a Deathwatch investigation team sent to the Woebetide system, an Imperial Task Force was dispatched by the Ordo Xenos to determine the fate of the Imperial mining colony there. Combining elements from the Inquisition, Astra Militarum and the White Scars, Celestial Lions and Red Hunters Astartes Chapters, Task Force Krönannburg was assembled to subdue a suspected Genestealer Cult uprising, as indicated from the information salvaged from the original Deathwatch communicae. However, when arriving to the Woebetide’s Third Moon, the full truth of the Enslaver Plague incursion became instantly evident. To the dismay of the Astartes Chapter elements present, the Cadian Guard Regiments deployed into the action were similarly enslaved, as were the systems inhabitants, by the foul warp-horrors of the Enslavers.
