The Fall of Anacharos was a Genestealer Cult Infestation that took place in M41.[1]

The infestation began when the Cult of the Rusted Claw found it impossible to move their Magus across the planet Anacharos at anything faster than a walk due to his high concentration of metallophage organisms which dissolve all metal on contact which makes vehicular transport impossible. Securing the aid of Cult of the Bladed Cog allies, they commissioned a series of Munitorum crates made of plastic compounds that are just as hard as steel. With this, they were able to transport their cult leaders from one planet to another.[2]

Later, the Primus Fender Threnn heard of ferro-beasts on the long-forsaken Yimbo Systems. He used the same crates to capture these armadillo-like metal-eating monsters by the dozens. The creatures were then set loose in the spaceports of Anacharos, the distracting havoc allowed allowing the Cult to organize an uprising and take full control. Those who attempted to flee the planet found their ships eaten.[1]
