In the early 35th millennium Ministorum forces accompanied the Icaria Crusade. The armies of the emoeror explored and fought across the southern sectors of the Ultima Segmentum in a series of wars that lasted thiry years. Alomst at the end of the campain a force of Frateris Templars secured an ancient factory on the world of Fornoth. Invesigating more closely they discovered old databanks dating back to hte dark age of technology. Securing their find the Missionary in charge, Morben the Devout, negotiated a deal with the Adepts of the Cult Mechanicus. In return for the material support of Mars, Ministorium would turn over the factory to hte Fabriactor General's invesigators. In addition, the Ministorium laid exclusive claim to any new technologies that were discovered by the Adaptus Mechanicus.

This contract has proved invaluable to the Adaptus Ministorium over the millennia, providing them with supplies of weaponry and allowing them to arm and armour the Adapus Sororitas to the highest standards. The only new designs to be culled from the ancient factory were some half complete files detailing a flame thrower tank. These were modified with existing Imperial technology to produce the Immoliator now used by the Adapus Sororitas. Later on, the Adaptus Mechanicus also developed the more sophisicated Imperial Guard Hellhound from its dinds but the source of its design has been kept secret from the Ecclesiarchy.
