The Legio Kulisaetai is a Titan Legion, that took part in the Horus Heresy on the traitor side.[2]


Overview

The Legio was founded on the embattled world of Kalibrax before the coming of the Great Crusade. A broken force due to its many civil wars waged during the Age of Strife, the coming of the Imperium saw it receive much aid from Kelbor-Hal and the Legio Mortis. The foundations of the Legio Kulisaetai were from pro-Imperial factions in Kalibrax's civil war that battled a genocidal faction known as the "Endeavour of Airless Purity" which sought to eradicate life on a galactic scale. After aiding the Legio Mortis in eradicating this threat, the Legio Kulisaetai was rebuilt with Tech-Priests and Titans sent from Mars itself, earning the title as the Gatekeepers of the Fabricator-General on Kalibrax. They then took part in the conquest of the Belt of Iron alongside these new allies. However in truth the Legio Kulisaetai were not a truly independent force and were instead heavily dependent on the Legio Mortis, with many of its Princeps and Tech-Priests being former members of the aforementioned themselves.

During the Great Crusade the Legio brought their style of methodical destruction to dozens of worlds across the galaxy. In war, they were famed for scorched earths tactics. They had relatively few Warhounds as they preferred attritional warfare, while their Warlord Titans usually sported defensive loadouts. Their preferred type of Titan was the Warbringer-Nemesis.[3]

During the Horus Heresy the Legio unsurprisingly sided with the forces of Horus and fought against loyalists in the Cataclysm of Iron. Since their corruption by Chaos, they have lost track with reality.[2]
