In 899.M40, the Mordian 189th Armoured Regiment were manning a successful defense 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 Imperial's 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]
