History
It was among the Imperial forces that unsuccessfully defended Lazulai from a Tyranid invasion. As the world began to fall to the Xenos, the Cadian 2012th were among the Regiments defending the Cobalt Fortress, which was under General Kvelter's command. It was one of the last remaining ones on the dying world, but no reinrocemnts would be sent, as Lazulai was considered to be lost. However when an overwhelming Tyranid force was headed in the Fortress' direction, General Kvelter ordered Major Wulf Khan of the Catachan CMIII to undergo a final mission.[1]
This required Khan to lead a squadron of the CMIII outside of the Cobalt Fortress, in order to recover an asset for the Imperium. While the General did not know what it was exactly, Kvelter was convinced the asset was a weapon that would end the threat of the Tyranids. In order to ensure the Major had the best chance for success, though, the General would draw the Xenos' attention by advancing towards Jasper Fortress. Kvelter would lead all of her surviving personnel in the attack, which included the Cadian 2012th and the remainder of the CMIII.[1]
