==History==
The Star Phantoms is an Astartes Chapter whose otherwise many victories remain unsung because of its own penchant for secrecy and isolationism. As part of the Sentinel Founding early in the 38th Millennium, the Chapter was founded to shore up the defenses of the Imperium in many vulnerable parts of its vast domain. Initially based in the Mausoleum-world of Haakoneth, the Chapter became fleet-based by necessity upon the destruction of the planet in 120.M40, and since that time had been grimly plying the space lanes of Segmentum Obscurus. The Chapter was counted as one of those who participated in the [[Macharian Crusade]], and was also one of the Chapters that brought back order to the worlds conquered in the crusade when the Macharian Heresyerupted after the Lord Solar's death.
===The Badab War===
===The Aftermath===
In recognition for their service the Star Phantoms were given dominion over the shattered remains of the Badab sector. Being fleet-based for so long, the Chapter accepted this as if it was a reward long in the coming. Taking its pick of the planets, it settled on the ice moon of Jahga, where they chose to bring down the heavily-damaged ''Momento Mori'', and use the ancient warship as a base of their new Fortress-Monastery.
