Magdelene IX is a former [[Imperial]] [[Shrine World]]. In 023996.[[M41]] it fell under the threat of [[Waaagh! Garaghak]] and was besieged by a combined [[Ork]] force of Skalk Bluetoof's [[Death Skulls]] and various [[Goff]] warbands, spearheaded by [[Buzzgob]]'s [[Dreadheadz]]. Defended by [[Frateris Militia]], thousands of cultists of Red Redemption and [[Sisters of Battle]] of the [[Order of the Black Selpulchre]] it eventually fell in 866996.[[M41]] due to the lack of Imperial reinforcements after the fall of [[Forsarr]] and was immediatly claimed by [[Garaghak]] himself. In 476998.M41 , under pressure from [[Ecclesiarchy]] the 73rd [[Harakoni Warhawks]] were deployed on Magdelene IX in a desperate planetfall which predictably failed with heavy losses. Magdelene IX remains in Ork hands and in 995999.[[M41]] Orks of [[Waaagh! Garaghak]] are mustering on the planet to continue their war against the Imperium.{{Fn|1a1}}{{Fn|2}}
