Changes

After the the Imperial Guard's defeat on [[Lorn V]] the [[Segmentum CommandDepartmento Munitorium]] sent the formed [[Cadian 412thTask Force Retribution]] (reinforced by members . This task force was created from troops of other regiments from across the Imperium), and placed under the leadership of their new commander; [[General Lukas Alexander, ]]. [[Segmentum Command]] ordered the task force to hunt down the [[Eldar]] [[Farseer]] [[Taldeer]] for her actions against themon Lorn V. They managed to track Taldeer to the planet of Kronus, and mobilized in pursuit. The 412th task force made landfall and secured the remains of the old Imperial city of '''Ironworks Bay'''. An ancient [[Hellstorm Cannon]], part of the [[Horus Heresy]]-era [[Imperator Titan]] ''[[Aquila Ignis]]'', was found there by [[Magos]] [[Explorator]] [[Gaius]]{{Fn|1k}} and other [[Techpriest]]s accompanying the Regiment. Additionally, it was discovered that the Tau had taken over control of the planet, the Necrons were awakening from the sands of the planet's desert, a massive Ork WAAAGH had invaded, and the [[Word Bearers]] [[Chaos Marines]] had also landed to claim the planet for the [[Ruinous Powers]]. {{Fn|1a}}

This prompted Segmentum Command to name General Alexander the planet's [[Governor-Militant]] and reform the 412th forces members of Task Force Retribution on the planet into the 1st Kronus Regimentand named the the "Liberators" as their mission was to liberate the planet and its people from their xenos oppressors. "Ironworks Bay" was renamed "Victory Bay" and made the new planetary capital by Governor-Militant Alexander, in anticipation of his great victory on Kronus. The Liberator's first mission was to defeat the xenos . Unfortunately, The Liberator's mission soon put them at direct odds with a Blood Ravens task force that arrived on Kronus soon after the Liberators, trying to uncover mysteries about the chapter's past. The Blood Ravens were then ordered to purge the planet in order to ensure their findings remain secret. They warned the Liberators to leave, but the unit was determined to follow through with their orders and protect their new homeworld, even if that included fighting the Blood Ravens. {{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|1b}}
