Changes

[[Mars]] underwent a very different transformation. After a brief period of anarchy, the [[Tech-priest]]s of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus|Cult Mechanicus]] emerged victorious over the mutants and unified their homeworld. The Tech-priests then visited Terra, sometimes occasionally raiding it for remnants of technology that they could take home and adapt to their purposes. The Tech-priests , however, they were appalled at the destruction on of Terra , and saw nothing worth saving. Instead, the Martians studied the Warp and , after many lifetimes , learned to detect "lulls" in the Warp storms. At the same time the immense fighting machines known as [[Titan]]s were created.{{cite this}}

For over a thousand years the Cult Mechanicus watched and waited. Whenever a break in the Warp storms occurred, an expedition expeditionary force was sent, complete with a full Titan Legion and , thousands of Servitors and Techpriests. Some of these expeditions were lost in the Warp or died perished on faraway worlds. Others succeeded in establishing "[[Forge World]]s" - replicas of Mars. Broken messages were transmitted to [[Mars]], but it was not until the time of the [[Great Crusade]] that the various Forge Worlds and Mars would be reunited.{{cite this}}
