Little were they to know that the core architecture and design of the class’ warp shields hid a fundamental flaw. Only when in the following centuries the vessels of this class were either lost in the Warp or turned renegade did the realisation strike home. The ''Terminus Est'' and Typhus did not assume a central role in the [[Gothic War]]. A single sighting near [[Anvil 206]] was the only evidence of their presence. However, considering the later incidents traced back to Anvil 206 it is clear that a particular mission was accomplished.
Terminus Est bombarded the orbital defense of holy planet [[Annunciation]] before Typhus descended on the planet and desecrated it by himself personally.{{Fn|1}}
In M41 the ''Terminus Est'' is one of the oldest ships known to the Imperium, the power of Nurgle holding its ancient hull together while the most virulent plagues seethe through its dank corridors. The ''Terminus Est'' is a part of Nurgle’s realm given license to travel the stars, spreading death at the behest of its damned captain. There will be no rest for the Imperial Navy until it is finally hunted down and cleansed forever.
