Real World
An infamous military error during the Spiron campaign, 438.926.[[M41]]. A [[Sentinel]] Troop led by [[Captain]] '''Gannack''' from the [[Kalaman 3rd Hussars|3rd Kalaman Hussars]], charged an [[Ork]] redoubt containing an artillery battery after confusing their orders. There were no survivors.
==Real WorldTrivia==The Charge is probably based on the real-world "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_of_the_light_brigade Charge of the Light Brigade"], in which an English brigade misunderstood its orders and charged a Russian redoubt containing an artillery battery.
