'''Talumech''' was a venerated [[Dreadnought]] of the [[Iron Hands]] [[Garrsak clanClan]], who sat on the [[Chapter|Chapter's]]'s Clan Council.{{Fn|1a}} Talumech took part in the defense of [[Medusa (Planet)|Medusa]], during the [[13th Black Crusade]]. He repelled constant attacks by [[Chaos]] forces and had killed two hundred [[cultist]] soldiers in the most recent attack. But then a chaos [[psyker]] rent open the adamantium shielding of his armour’s interface sarcophagus and what little was left of Talumech’s flesh and blood form spontaneously combusted, and with his death-throes, his twin-linked lascannon blew the psyker-witch’s head apart. His dreadnought was then recovered from the battlefield at the peak which it stood and repaired and reconsecrated. Learning of [[Iron Father]] [[Anatolus Gdolkin]]s sacrifice over the [[Word Bearers]] of the Iscariot, the Garrsak clan had gifted the ancient dreadnought carcass to the [[Vurgaan Clan]]. It would later house the severely wounded Iron Father who recovered and continued to fight in the defense of [[Medusa]].{{Fn|1b}}
