The '''Wars of Apostasy''' or the '''Terran Crusade''' was the [[crusade]] or military campaigns waged by the [[Space Marines]] during the [[Age of Apostasy]].
After the [[Black Templars]] Chapter keeps in the [[Segmentum Solar]] were bombarded by the fleet of the insane [[High Lord]] [[Goge Vandire]], the Chapter [[High Marshal (Black Templars)|High Marshal]] [[Sigenandus]] was enraged, declaring a crusade to be launched against Vandire on Terra. The Black Templars were joined by the [[Imperial Fists]], [[Fire Hawks]], and [[Soul Drinkers]] as well as the forces of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. After besieging Vandire's palace on Terra for many months, Imperial Fists [[Chapter Master]] [[Lazerian]] finally managed to form a breach. During the assault on the breach [[Emperor's Champion]] [[Navarre]] was decorated for not allowing the [[Chapter Standard]] to fall in battle. As his empire collapsed around him, the Mad Lord finally met his end at the hands of his own trusted subordinate, [[Alicia Dominica]].{{Fn|1}}
