Logos

This article is about the ship; for the power armour worn by Perturabo, see The Logos. |
The Logos is the venerated Ark Mechanicus of the Gryphonnen Tech Priest Arch-Dominus Arcophili Zane.[1a]
History
The Logos served as the centre of the Gryphonnen armada in the void defence of Gryphonne IV. Any Tyranid that came within its reach was utterly eviscerated. This was further bolstered by its guardian battlefleet that encircled the Ark Mechanicus. The Logos was the rocks that all Tyranids would break against, but the sheer volume of beasts would inevitably flow around the Logos and its accompanying battlefleet.[1a]
In the wake of the world's destruction, the Logos and its surviving guardian vessels would serve as vanguard of the diaspora fleet. It led a caravan of ships thousands of miles long towards the Gryphonne System's secondary Mandeville Point. Although the assembled armada's power could easily conquer a subsector and rebuild it to the Machine God's design, it was only the paltry remnants of their fallen empire.[1b]
The diaspora fleet of Gryphonne IV would eventually come to rest in orbit of the Forge World Tolkhan. The Logos became the de facto flagship of Gryphonne IV's diaspora fleet and linchpin for all astral communications coming and going outside the flotilla.[1d]
