Jovian Purge
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Jovian Purge was a battle fought on the Jovian orbital shipyard Platform XI in M42.[1]
History
It began after Inquisitor Xie of the Ordo Malleus warned the Adeptus Custodes of the Solar Watch of a threat that was on Platform XI. In response to this, the Solar Watch dispatched one of its Shield Companies to the Platform, along with several Sisters of Silence from the Outer Solar Vigil and a Callidus Assassin. This combined force discovered that Platform XI was seething with tech-cultists that worshiped the Daemon Vashtorr. Their efforts of corrupting Imperial warships with hidden biomechanoid parasites were brought to an end, when the Cultists were purged by the Shield Company and its allies.[1]
