==History==
===HeresyGreat Crusade===In the Legio Vulpa's early history they took part in the [[Great Crusade]] and were originally stationed on [[Mars]], where they had a decades long dispute about ancient territorial rights with their fellow Legio, the [[Death Bolts]].{{Fn|1a}}. During the Great Crusade they leveled the city of [[Biphex ]] on [[Dendritica]] instead of allowing negotiations to be given a chance, drawing the ire of the [[Legio Solaria]].{{Fn|3}}
===Horus Heresy===When [[Schism of Mars|civil war]] erupted on Mars, the Legio Vulpa turned upon the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]] and joined those who swore their allegiance to the [[Warmaster]] [[Horus]]. Their [[Dark Mechanicum]] allies dispatched the Death Stalkers to destroy the loyalist Deathbolts and the [[Traitor Titan Legion]] launched a devastating surprise attack on their rival's fortress. The first hour of the battle between the two Legios saw the unprepared Deathbolts lose nineteen of their [[Titan]]s to the Deathstalkers' attack, before the loyalist Legio finally escaped from their grasp.{{Fn|1b}}
Due to the corruption spread by [[Word Bearers]] [[Dark Apostle]] [[Vorrjuk Kraal]], the Death Stalkers became more dedicated to [[Chaos]] and pledged themselves to [[Khorne]]. Blood sacrifice and dark rituals became commonplace. The Legio was one of those that fought for [[Horus]] during the [[Battle of Molech]].{{Fn|4}}
Later, the Legio Vulpa was one of the Legions that took part in the [[Battle of Beta-Garmon]], being stationed primarily on [[Beta-Garmon III ]] and [[Theta-Garmon V]]. During the battle eight Princeps of the Legion were fused with [[Daemon]]s and installed on [[Warlord Titan]]s under the oversight of Dark Mechanicus [[Magos]] [[Ardim Protos]] and Dark Apostle Kraal, creating berserker machines dedicated to [[Khorne]].{{Fn|3}}
===Post-Heresy===
They were among the forces of [[Abaddon the Despoiler]] in the [[Thirteenth 13th Black Crusade]].{{Fn|2}}
