Communique 003: Reinforcements from Macragge
++ GENERAL ORDER — ENCRYPTION: AURIC ++
FROM: Chapter Master Thysor, Silver Templars
TO: All Silver Templars elements, Octarius Theater
RE: Reinforcement and redeployment orders
Brothers of the Silver Templars, hear this decree. Lord Commander Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the XIII Legion, Regent of the Imperium, has designated the Octarius Sector a priority theater of operations.
The 1st and 5th Companies are being redeployed from the Nihilus frontier to reinforce the 3rd Company’s position. Additionally, elements of the Ultramarines 4th Company will provide fleet support. An Adeptus Mechanicus Explorator fleet carrying fresh materiel — including two Repulsor Executioners and a full complement of Gravis armour — is en route from Forge World Metalica.
Captain Voss is hereby promoted to Theater Commander for all Astartes operations in the Octarius Sector. His tactical acumen at Kharsis IV has earned the respect of this Chapter and the Ordo Xenos alike.
We march to war not merely to contain the greenskin menace, but to ensure that the Tyranid threat does not exploit the chaos of the WAAAGH! The Silver Templars shall be the anvil upon which both xenos threats are broken.
++ END DECREE — THE EMPEROR PROTECTS — NONE SHALL FIND US WANTING ++
