Added lost legion information from The Wolftime
===The Great Crusade===
Under Russ' brash leadership the Space Wolves had other incidents with their allied Astartes Legion. This included the [[Night of the Wolf]] against the [[World Eaters]] and a brief [[Battle of Shrike_#Aftermath|bloody confrontation]] on [[Ark Reach Secundus]] with the [[Thousand Sons]]. It was also hinted that the Space Wolves, serving as the Emperor's executioners, may have had something to do with the disappearance of the [[Lost legions|Two Lost Legions]]{{Fn|16}}; according to members of the [[Adeptus Custodes]], they were among the first respondents to an act of betrayal involving the XI Legion.{{Fn|1662}}
During the 2nd century of the Great Crusade, the Space Wolves fought a series of secret wars against a variety of cosmic horrors. These included the [[Enslavers]], the psychic kings of [[Vhallach]], and the [[Lacremara]]. By the end of the Crusade the Space Wolves had firmly earned their reputation as the Emperor's enforcers and were a mid-sized Legion of around 95,000-100,000. Their many campaigns during the Crusade and issues with their [[gene-seed]] had depleted their peak strength of around 130,000.{{Fn|40b}}
