History
Towards the end of the Great Crusade, the Lord of Hyrus was part of a Death Guard fleet that led a boarding action against a jorgall cylinder ship.[1]
Near the start of the Horus Heresy, the Lord of Hyrus was part of the Death Guard flotilla that confronted the White Scars' fleet above the ruins of Prospero. When the White Scars rejected Horus and his rebellion, the two Legions' fleets clashed, with the Lord of Hyrus taking heavy damage from the lances of the Sickle Moon.[2]
It was later among the Legion's forces that took part in the Siege of Terra.[3]
