The '''Molorian Revolt''' was a battle of the [[Great Crusade]].
Waged in the early stages of the Crusade in '''800.[[M30]]''', the war began when the recently conquered [[Imperial]] world of [[Molor]] rose in rebellion. The 8th Company of the [[Space Wolves|VIth Legion]] (then not under the leadership of [[Leman Russ (Primarch)|Leman Russ]]) was dispatched to put down the rebellions. However , due to the poor discipline of the early VIth Legion, what began as a surgical strike against the renegade [[Planetary Governor|governor]] rapidly degenerated into a massacre against the planetary population. In Molor's capital , the VIth Legion's [[Space MarineMarines]]s massacred all they encountered, to the extend that the industrial capacity of the planet was put at risk. It was only by the brutal efforts of the Legion's [[Consul-Opsequiari]] Disciplinary Corps, which conducted many summary executions, that any within the city survived.{{Fn|1}} ==Related Articles==*[[Battles of the Great Crusade (List)]]*[[List of Anti-Imperial Rebellions]]
