→907.M41
The Marines Errant, having taken serious losses during the war elected to retire from the campaign, much to the ire of the Fire Hawks. Their withdrawal coincided with the arrival of the rest of the Executioners chapter, come to reinforce the crew of the ''Night Hag''. The Executioners fell in force upon the locations defended by the Howling Griffons and inflicted tremendous casualites upon the loyalist chapter - so much so that it was suggested that the Griffons retire from the campaign, a suggeston they resisted until the year 909.M41.<sup>1h</sup>
The Secessionists were suddenly distracted from following up this opportunity however, when the Mantis Warriors were forced to invade their own territory to oust an [[Ork]] invasion and the Astral Claws had to deal with degenerate [[daemon]]-worshipping cults springing up inside their own domain. A further blow to Huron's forces was suffered by the unexpected arrival of another loyalist chapter; the [[Minotaurs]]. Charging directly into battle, the Minotaurs wiped out the entire Tyrant's Legion unit stationed on [[Kyro]]. While allying themselves with Culln's command tree, the Minotaurs kept themselves to themselves, attacking with a ferocity unmatched in the loyalist forces until the arrival of the [[Space Sharks|Carcharodons]] some years later. One instance when the Minotaurs are on record as working with other Astartes is when they aided the Red Scorpions in finally conquering the world of Vyaniah.<sup>1h</sup>
