Nickel V is a planet located within the Donian Sector of Segmentum Pacificus.[1]
History
In 985.M39 the planet was being overrun with Orks when the Black Templars launched the Donian Crusade to destroy the Orkish threat. In 998, the planet became the site of a battle between the Space Marines and the Orks. Although the Imperial forces were victorious, the Crusade would suffer a major blow when Marshal Austein was killed in battle on the planet. Command of the Crusade would fall to Marshal Werhner after that, who ultimately cleansed the entire sector of Orks four years later.[1]
