The '''Red Tear''' was a [[Gloriana Class Battleship]] used as the personal flagship of the [[Blood Angels]] [[Primarch]] [[Sanguinius]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]]. Seeing action during the Compliance of [[Murder]]{{Fn|21}} and the [[Battle of Signus Prime]], it was said that the golden-clad ship was a beautiful sight to behold.{{Fn|12a}}
''Red Tear'' crashed on [[Signus Prime]] after its commanding officer [[Athene Ducade]], driven mad by the [[Chaos]] presence, killed her bridge crew and destroyed the controls. Most of the line crew died from Chaos-induced madness, during the descent, or on impact. Sanguinius then declared ''[[Convenant of Baal]]'' the new flagship and had ''Red Tear'' salvaged and converted to a groundside fortress.{{Fn|1a2b}}
