*''[[Death's Head]]'' — Fought in the [[Battle of Davin's Moon]] during the [[Great Crusade]].{{Fn|3}}
Deleted nonexistant titan- source stated the Warlord titan to be part of the Death's Head, not named the Death's Head itself.
===Horus Heresy===
By the time of the Horus Heresy, the Legio Mortis possessed around 200 Titans, 2 support armor battalions, five [[Skitarii]] Legions, and 9 air support squadrons. It is said only the [[Legio Destructor]] possessed more Titans than the Legio Mortis, and they possessed the greaterst greatest number of [[Emperor Titan]]s.{{Fn|13}} The legion was corrupted by the powers of [[Chaos]] which enveloped the rebel forces under Horus, and most of the Death's Heads fell towards the vile decay of [[Nurgle]], ironically that same entity which had so disgusted the Titan crews fighting against the hordes of [[Plague Bearer]]s on the moon of [[Davin]] before Horus fell. The Legio Mortis became the most notorious of the traitor Titan Legions. The Legio directly supported Horus before his daemon-possessed treachery against the Emperor. The Legio followed him willingly. When the Horus Heresy began with the virus-bombing of [[Isstvan III]], it was the Legio Mortis which made the landings to scour the corpse-packed hives for the last survivors.{{Cite this}} Later during the [[Fall of Prospero]] a Legio Mortis contingent was dispatched as part of the [[Space Wolves]]-led force. However the Legio Mortis force was near-annihilated during the battle, saved only by the [[Ordo Sinister]]. The humiliation caused their involvement to largely be covered up.{{Fn|9}}
During the [[Schism of Mars]], the Legio Mortis forces supported the traitor [[Fabricator General]] [[Kelbor-Hal]], and were the first titan legion to walk in support of [[Horus]]. These contingents of Legio Mortis, however, were all but destroyed by [[Legio Tempestus]], save for the Hellstorm Cannon of the [[Imperator]] ''[[Aquila Ignis]]''.{{Cite this}}
====[[Warlord Battle Titan|Warlord]]-class====
*''[[Cadavaris Perdita]]'' - Command titan of the Legio Mortis contingent during the [[Battle of Prospero]] under [[Princeps]] [[Maldis Drane]]. It was a veteran that had fought for years with the Sons of Horus as part of the [[63rd Expeditionary Fleet]]. However during the attack on the [[Zhao-Arkhad]] sub-forge the Titan was decapitated by the [[Legio Xestobiax]] [[Reaver Titan]] ''Sleepless Watcher''. The machine was recovered but ever after was marked with shame for its humiliating defeat.{{Fn|9}}
*''[[Ire Incarnatus]]'' — Ancient engine which served the Mechanicum for many long centuries before the [[Horus Heresy]]. Badly damaged during the [[Tarren Suppression]], where it's [[Mars]]-Pattern head was replaced with a [[Lucius (Forgeworld)|Lucius]]-pattern.{{Fn|5b}}
*''[[Molossus]]'' — [[Warlord Class Titan]]{{Fn|5a}}
