Changes

With Formal Prime finally conquered, the first phase of the Crusade was complete, and Slaydo was ready to commence the next, attacking the [[Newfound Trailing Worlds]], with his ultimate objective being the stronghold world of [[Balhaut]].{{Fn|1c}}

===Aftermath and Implications===

Formal Prime was the most hard-fought battleground of Operation Redrake, and quickly disabused Slaydo of his hope that the [[Chaos]] forces opposing the Crusade were a poorly-organized collection of tribal [[cultist]]s. It became clear that [[Archon (Chaos)|Archon]] [[Nadzybar]] had a number of "lieutenant warlords," known as [[Magister]]s, many of whom were competent tacticians who commanded absolute obedience from their soldiers. Shebol Red-Hand was the first to be encountered, but others would soon come to the attention of the Imperial forces.{{Fn|1d}}
