Aegisine Crusade
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Aegisine Crusade was a Crusade by the Black Templars in M39. Directed at the rebel drift worlds of Mangdragora Sector, it was a long and bitter war. The Black Templars employed the 'Iron Cyclone' Dreadnought drop strike assault pattern, launching the Drop Pods from Strike Cruisers in low orbit. Despite taking withering ground fire, the maneuver proved decisive and ended a conflict that had bogged down Imperial forces for decades.[1]
