Rutilus Tyrannus
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Rutilus Tyrannus was a Battle Barge of the Crimson Fists Space Marine Chapter.[1]
History
For the first nine millennia of their existence, the Crimson Fists Chapter travelled aboard the Rutilus Tyrannus as a Crusading Chapter. Later on, when the chapter was bequeathed Rynn's World as their Homeworld, the Crimson Fists established their Fortress Monastery, the Arx Tyrannus, high in the inhospitable Hellblade Mountains, building it around the remains of the Battle Barge.[1][2]
