The Tiamat Class Destroyers were powerful ancient Terran warships, that were studded in weapons and dated back to the age before Old Night.[1]
They, along with the Gloriana Class Battleships and Promethean Class Cruisers, were relics of forgotten technologies, and lost inspirations of grandeur, that far surpassed more modern warship designs in potency. The Emperor had somehow gained possession of a number of these warships and as the Great Crusade began, he gave a small number to most of the Space Marine Legions. The First Legion, however, was given a Fleet of these warships, due the honour they had earned themselves in the Unification Wars.[1]
