==History==
In early [[M42]], the [[Octarius War]] threatened to spill out of the [[Octarius]] warzone and breach the [[Cordon Impenetra]]. The tyranids [[tyranid]]s of [[Hive Fleet Leviathan]] swarmed through the Pankallis Sub-sector, overwhelming the worlds of the Gydisk System. They scoured Gydisk Quartas's caves of their [[megafunghi]] colonies.{{Fn|1a}}
Despite the efforts of Gydisk's Imperial defenders, the entire system was declared lost, although scattered Imperial resistance remained active across the region.{{Fn|1a}} On the orders of the [[Death Strike]] [[Chapter]], the world's vast food stockpiles were either evacuated to support Imperial efforts elsewhere in the sub-sector or burned to prevent the tyranids consuming them.{{Fn|1c}}
