The Latoti Crusade was a vast interstellar conflict fought between the Orks of WAAAGH! Rok'Ed and the Imperium of Mankind. Although the Orks held the strategic initiative early in the conflict, Primarch Gaspard Lumey used his Fifth Legion to draw the WAAAGH into a trap at Pandora. There, the Imperials inflicted a heavy defeat on their foes and Fabrice Diallo slew Rok'Ed in personal combat.
Prelude: The Fall of Omegon
The cataclysm that ended the Age of Technology sent most human worlds back towards savagery, but fragments of the old human federation could be found scattered across the Galaxy. The Markian Pact is the best-known advanced realm in the Segmentum Pacificus, but were it not for the savagery of the terrible Orks Markia would have been a poor second to the Realm of Omegon. Sadly for the nascent Imperium, this sophisticated trans-stellar realm was annihilated by Xenos before it could be peacefully incorporated into galactic human society, robbing mankind of much wisdom and advanced technology. But Omegon was worse than lost. Though the weapons of the Omegon Annihilators had failed to halt WAAAGH! Rok'Ed, the Orks looted many sophisticated machines from the civilisation they had ruined.
