Second Greentide Campaign

The Second Greentide Campaign was an Imperial defensive campaign fought against the massive Ork WAAAGH! of The Beast in defense of their home system.

Background
The biggest ork assault ever in the planets history. It is unknown how many died but it is estimated to have included over 100 billion Mauryan civilians & soldiers. Much of the planets already depleted military forces were utterly smashed by the seething tide of ork pouring from there attack moon, it ended up becoming a war of scratch companies mixed with guard units in a similar manner as there war against Praetoria. The Shivea's Wrath personally destroyed the attack moon with repeated blasts of its Nova Cannon straight down a damaged barrel while dozens of other warships swarmed the ork fleet in a pitched naval battle. Even when it was boarded by hundreds of ork the ship continued to fire until the moon's core exploded out into a fragment hail of apocalyptic proportions. Most of the smaller ships within direct line of sight of the moon were obliterated outright along with most of the ork fleet. while Maurya did get hit with several pieces its orbital defenses blasted much of the smaller debris into cosmic dust while the remaining navy used their weapons to sear away the larger pieces as best they could.
