The Forge World Werkerde was a powerful manufacturing hub and home to the crusading Titan Legion, Legio Picus (the Woodpeckers).
History
Organisation
Usually it was said that each Forge World was home to or had an attached Titan Legion. The reverse was true on Werkerde: it was a Titan Legion with a Forge World attached. Legio Picus was the focal point of the Forge World's activity. Every scrap of production beyond that necessary to maintain Werkerde's industrial machine went to producing new Titans, supplies and parts for the Legion in being, arms and armaments for auxiliary forces, or - in something of a last resort - trade goods for winning allies or bartering for materials unavailable on Werkerde.
Doctrine and Faith
The Magoi of Werkerde diverged from their Martian ancestors on the nature of machine spirits. Unlike the Martian Orthodoxy, they held that the Machine God had a malign counterpart, the Automodeus. This vile entity was was believed to be the source of tek heresy, xenos technology, and abominable intelligence. The tech priests of Werkerde saw combating these evils in the world of the flesh as their calling.
