====Winged Victory====

These early victories set the stage for the Fifth Legion to explode into the [[Great Crusade (Hektor Heresy)|Great Crusade]].  Their new recruits were determined to make up for lost time and arms from the Forge World [[Al-Sherar]] made good the Legion's years of deprivation.  The steady increase in the Fifth Legion's haul of worlds each year did not attract much attention and those who had raised eyebrows at the upstarts' success smiled when the ravages of WAAAGH! Rok'Ed led to lean years from 897 to 899.M30.  All shortfalls were made good, however, in 900.M30, when the Gaspard Lumey launched a campaign of enormous sophistication and seized a thousand sectors in a single year.  [[Roman Albrecht]], Primarch of the [[Steel Marshals]], captured the moment with his tribute to ''"Gaspard Lumey's men, moving like winged victory through the stars."''  The name would stick to them until the end of the Great Crusade - but others did not receive Fifth Legion's victories in such good humour.

Although the Fifth would continue to accumulate great victories throughout the second century of the Great Crusade, they rarely received praise.  [[Hektor Cincinnatus]] and his praetorians from the '''Sacred Band''' took a dim view of the upstart Legion and did their best to keep Lumey from receiving new resources from the wealthy Segmentum Solar.  To some extent, shortages were made good due to the generosity of Roman Albrecht and the liberated worlds of the [[Al-Sherar Sector]], but the Fifth were usually the last Legion to receive advanced new equipment.  Gaspard Lumey's relationships with most of the Primarchs became increasingly terse - and actively hostile when it came to [[the Voidwatcher]].  Lumey cannot be absolved of blame for the hostile atmosphere, as he rarely treated his brothers as equals and was prone to speaking out on their faults when it would have been wiser to stay silent.  Yet these character flaws were less grating among those who did not expect to be seen as a peer to the Primarch.  Lumey inspired great loyalty among his Space Marines and auxilia alike, and had a keen eye for talented commanders.  [[Fabrice Diallo]] had already won his reputation and duly enjoyed the confidence of the Primarch.  Others came into their own during the hard campaigns of the Great Crusade, such as; '''Augustin Carron''', [[Rogue Traders (Hektor Heresy)|Rogue Trader]] [[Visant Le Gall]], the remarkable Ciban Chasseur, '''Jeanne d'Orléans''', and the White Knight [[Lord of Bones|Abdul Al-Sherar]].
