As the number of worlds in the Galaxy is probably greater than a billion, this is a vain quest. Though this goal is hardly the most destructive when compared to most Archenemy warbands, it is in their habit to invade Imperial Worlds for the space of a single night and day, slaughtering thousands of innocent Imperial subjects and heroic PDF troopers to place themselves in an optimal viewing position. Then, they will stop all fighting in order to witness the dawn, weathering any blows aimed at them - apparently, this counts as a part of the experience for them?! To further show the degeneracy of this cult, many will continue to watch the star-rise even as it sears their retinnas in what must be indescribable agony: once they are blind, some will continue to fulfil their ritual by simply feeling the heat of stellar radiation upon their skin and listening to the awakening of diverse fauna; others will instead have wide-spectrum augmetic sensors installed (no administration of anaesthetics is required in this case). When they are most dangerous is in their subsequent revelries, in which they gallivant throughout the world they are upon, pillaging, burning, and kidnapping on their way. By all accounts, onlooking Imperial subjects - in all probability, those whose faith in the God-Emperor is not strong enough - will find themselves caught up in the delirium and will join in the merrymaking, following their new masters aboard the starships. Any force must be used against this warband, for they are entirely nomadic and their attacks are entirely random - or at least no pattern has been discerned by our most skilled Curators and Lexmechanics. Most of all, pray they do not visit your planet next.
