Dark Mancipium Campaign

The Dark Mancipium Campaign is a xenocidal purgation campaign carried out by the 501st Cordanian MIR and multiple other Astra Militarum regiments against the vile forces of the Drukhari, to free the worlds of the Mancipium System.

History
In sub-sector Ignis, the Mancipium System came under siege by the vile Drukhari. Three habitable planets of the system fell to the Drukhari, who enslaved helpless Imperial citizens by the thousands. Though it took a month after the call for aid was sent out, but eventually Astra Militarum regiments from both the 501st and the 182nd were dispatched and were the first to arrive in-system. They began to swiftly deploy on the besieged planets. After making planetfall and establishing forward operating bases, they soon received additional help in the form of the 67th and 430th Cadian Shock Troops Regiments and a Preceptory of Sisters of Battle from the Order of the Sacred Rose. Reinforced, the Imperial forces began their search-and-destroy operations to destroy the multiple Webway portals across the system and cut off the Drukhari's ability to receive reinforcements or escape from the Imperial Forces. Within a few months time, the Imperials successfully eradicated the Drukhari's presence from the system.
