The '''10th Company''', or '''10th Battle Company''',{{Fn|2}} of the [[Sons of Horus]] [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]] (formerly the '''Luna Wolves''' Legion) was active during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}


==Siege of Terra==
During the [[Siege of Terra]], they were led by [[Space Marine Captain|Captain]] [[Selgar Dorgaddon]]. As the invasion neared its end, the 10th Company came across a large group of mostly civilian [[Imperial]]s, near the [[Imperial Palace]]'s [[Sanctum Imperialis]], that [[Euphrati Keeler]] was attempting to lead to safety. Dorgaddon gave the order to kill them, but the Captain was suddenly killed by the [[Emperor's Champion]] [[Sigismund]], before the 10th could land a blow.{{Fn|4a}} The Company then attacked Sigismund to avenge Dorgaddon, but moments later, the Emperor's Champion's own [[Sigismund's Seconds|forces]] launched a surprise attack upon them. This caught the 10th off guard and they were overwhelmed in moments. The Company's formations broke down under the attacks of Sigismund's forces and the surviving members of the 10th attempted to flee to safety. However Sigismund's forces immediately hunted down the 10th's remnants and ensured that the Company was destroyed.{{Fn|4b}}
