The Crusade of Blood was an Imperial defensive campaign carried out by the Tempest Bulwarks Astra Militarum Regiments in the defence of their homeworld of Temperance against an unnamed Khornate Chaos Warband during the Third Black Crusade.

Background[]

In 909.M32, the arch-traitor Abaddon the Despoiler launched his Third Black Crusade, sending the Daemon Prince Tallomin against the Cadian Gate in a reckless and bloody frontal assault. The daemonic horde that followed in Tallomin's wake accounted for the destruction of millions of lives and draws in several Astra Militarum regiments and Space Marine Chapters from across the Segmentum Obscurus.

When a Khornate Warband offshoot of The Third Black Crusade lands on the doorstep of Temperance, the homeworld of the Tempest Bulwarks Regiments of the Astra Militarum, this causes the reformed, albeit ill-equipped and poorly disciplined Regiment of the Tempest Bulwarks to be re-founded. Through their valiant efforts and supreme sacrifice, they eventually manage to repel the bloodthirsty minions of Khorne.
