Greetings, Guardsmen!
Depending on your current chronological circumstances, you may well be experiencing the New Year right now – a perfect time to look back upon our most glorious of victories in the previous Terran Year:
In an act of unprecedented tactical genius, we have managed to lure many of our foes to Vigilus – perhaps the most fortified planet outside the Sol System! While it is not for us to assume the will of Imperial High Command, this seems to be a repeat of the famously successful Cadia Maneuver, where the foul Necron Pylon network, almost the entire strength of the Black Legion, a Blackstone Fortress and several underperforming regiments of Shock Troops were wiped out in one expeditious blow.
Not all our victories were on the battlefield! This year, the Departmento Munitorum completed our three-decade consultation on the definition of time itself post-Great Rift, and already have some exciting thoughts on how to measure chronology going forward. Some ideas include:
We look forward to the next Thirty-year Munitorum Consultation and Quorum, where each of these ideas will be duly investigated, with the best being taken through to another consultation session.*
That’s right! As a welcome side effect of the above chronological restructuring, in an official sense, several great victories from the Imperium’s past now officially occurred within the last year – giving you one more glorious success to celebrate.**
May this next year be as filled with triumphs as the last, Guardsman!***

* Tentatively scheduled for M51
** Within reason. Older and/or chronologically displaced Guardsmen who already celebrated the victory in the Konor Campaign the first time around are forbidden from participation next time.
*** Inadequate number of triumphs may be used as justification for motivational floggings, regimental decimations and other incentive measures.
