In 935.M41, a [[Daemon|daemonic]] horde led by [[M'kar]] the Reborn took control of the ''Indomitable'', located in the outer orbit of [[Calth]]. [[Marneus Calgar]], the Ultramarines' [[Chapter Master]], commanding [[Terminators]] from the Ultramarine's 1st Company, boarded the star fort and (according to the official Chapter record) tore M'kar limb from limb <sup id="fn_1_back">[[#fn_1{{Fn|[1]]]</sup>}}.

However, Calgar was later forced to admit that he had deceived his Chapter. He revealed that he had defeated M'Kar, but, even with the 1st Company and the full might of the [[Ordo Malleus]] behind him, he was unable to destroy it completely. The best he could do was to imprison the daemon within the star fort's warp core. Half of the Ultramarines' Fifth Company was sent to garrison the fort, which was sent on a random course meant to lose it forever inside the [[Warp]] <sup id="fn_2a_back">[[#fn_2a{{Fn|[2a]]]</sup>}}.

In or around 854999, Warsmith [[Honsou]] of the [[Iron Warriors]] learned of M'Kar's whereabouts, and captured the fort in a bloody siege, slaughtering its garrison and freeing M'kar. The star fort became Honsou's temporary headquarters for his invasion of [[Ultramar]], and first appeared in the skies above [[Tarentus]] <sup id="fn_2b_back">[[#fn_2b{{Fn|[2b]]]</sup>}}.

By the time the Ultramarines responded, the fort was in orbit of [[Talassar]], which had been all but destroyed. Calgar and the Ultramarines' 1st Company were shot down over Talassar and took shelter inside the ancient fortress of [[Castra Tanagra]]. In the weeks that followed, M'kar monitored the battle from inside the ''Indomitable'', waiting until they were at their weakest before appearing in person to finish Calgar off <sup id="fn_2c_back">[[#fn_2c{{Fn|[2c]]]</sup>}}.

M'kar nearly succeeded, thanks to a connection allowing him to draw almost limitless strength from the ''Indomitable'', until the connection was severed by a psychic blast from [[Varro Tigurius]] <sup id="fn_2d_back">[[#fn_2d{{Fn|[2d]]]</sup>}}.

In the aftermath of M'kar's defeat by the Ultramarines, the ''Indomitable'' was destroyed by the Ultramarines [[Battle Barge]]s ''Octavius'' and ''Severian'', and its remains fell to Talassar and plunged into the ocean <sup id="fn_2e_back">[[#fn_2e{{Fn|[2e]]]</sup>}}.
