==History==
Invigilata was deployed in Legio-strength to [[Armageddon]] to defend it against [[Ork ]] invaders during the [[Third War for Armageddon]].{{Fn|4}} Elements of Invigilata were charged with roaming the [[Ash Wastes]] near the [[Hemlock River]] in support of both [[Cadian Shock Troopers|Cadian regiments]] and the [[Salamanders]] [[Chapter]].{{Fn|1a}}
Elsewhere, [[Princeps|Princeps Majoris]] [[Zarha Mancion]] commanded one third of the total force, 19 engines, and deployed her forces to [[Hive Helsreach]] to reinforce the defences there. Helsreach's defenders initially feared that Zarha might abandon the city to link up with the rest of Invigilata but after she met directly with [[Merek Grimaldus]], [[Reclusiarch]] of the [[Black Templars]] and leader of the [[Helsreach Crusade]], she pledged her portion of the Legio to Helsreach's defence.{{Fn|1b}}
==Customs==
Whenever a Titan of Invigilata is destroyed, the Principes of the rest of the Titan's battle group hold a [['''Communion]] ''' in which they reaffirm the unity of the battle group and its purpose.{{Fn|1d}}
