The '''{{PAGENAME}}Magdelon Incursion''' began in 712.[[M41]], when a Warband of the [[Bleak Brotherhood]] made a compact with a [[Daemon]] to secure its aid for their coming wars. The Daemon's price however, was the casting down of the '''Crystal City''' on the [[Imperium]] world [[Magdelon]]; , a price the Bleak Brotherhood readily agreed to. When they attacked the Crystal City though, the Warband attracted the attention of the [[Space Wolves]] [[Chapter]] and the two sides soon clashed admidst the City's shattered ruins. Disaster struck however, when their battle was so pleasing to the denizens of the [[Warp]] that a major Daemonic incursion on Magdelon was triggered.{{Fn|1}}
Despite the Daemons ' sudden appearance though, [[Ragnar Blackmane]] led the Space Wolves to victory against the forces of [[Chaos]] , and the survivors of the Bleak Brotherhood fled to the [[Imperium]] world [[Lycanthos Secundus]]. There the Warband seized the mighty bastion known as the '''Widowmaker''' and held out against repeated assaults by Imperial forces for three decades. The Warband's end finally came, when they fell to an attack from the [[Astral Claws]] Chapter in 780.[[M41]].{{Fn|2}}
