Thantus X was a former world of the Imperium, now held by the Orks.[1]
In 899.M40, the Mordian 189th Armoured [[Imperial Guard Regiment|Regiment were manning a successful defence against an Ork Waaagh!, when a novice Tech-Priest gave the wrong benedictions while arming a Vortex Missile. This caused the missile to explode before it could be launched and resulted in the destruction of the Imperials' fortifications. The aftermath led not only to the loss of Thantus X to the Orks, but the entire system’s food supply as well.[1]
