The order of battle of the Arkron Crusade, a typical Black Templars Crusade Fleet.
The Arkron Crusade was a Crusade Fleet launched by the Black Templars Chapter of Space Marines. Imperial records contain almost no information on why the Crusade was called, what its target and objectives were, or what it accomplished.
The Black Templars are a fleet-based Chapter, their companies scattered across the galaxy into numerous Crusades. Each Crusade is led by a Marshal, while a single High Marshal is responsible for the progress of all the current Crusades.
Below is the order of battle of the Arkron Crusade, launched into the Ghoul Stars during the closing years of the 38th Millennium. A typical Black Templars Crusade, it numbered hundreds of Battle-Brothers, war machines and support elements, allowing it to campaign far beyond the Imperium's borders. Its order of battle is outlined below.
