'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was the second major phase of the [[Sabbat Worlds Crusade]], following immediately from the completion of the first, [[Operation Redrake]]. Its focus was the [[Newfound Trailing Group]] within the [[Sabbat Worlds]].{{Fn|1}}

== History ==
Redrake was the initial phase of the Crusade, designed to provide a swift, complete victory for morale purposes and give the Crusade a foothold within the [[Archenemy]]'s territory. The territorial gains of Redrake were a modest four worlds. [[Warmaster]] [[Slaydo]] fully expected Newfound to be a longer and more complicated campaign, not only because its goals were much more ambitious, but also because he expected retaliation after [[Archon (Chaos)|Archon]] [[Nadzybar]] "woke up" from the surprise of Redrake.{{Fn|1}}

Newfound's ultimate goal was the capture of the strategically vital world of [[Balhaut]], which took Slaydo the better part of a decade to achieve.{{Fn|1}}
