[[Image:Honour of Ultramar.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Honour of Ultramar{{Fn|3a}}]]The '''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is an [[Ultramarines]] [[Strike Cruiser]] which is currently commanded by [[Lieutenant (Space Marine)|Lieutenant]] [[Calsius]] and has carried his strike force{{Fn|1}} to battle the [[Death Guard]]{{Fn|2}}, who have invaded the [[Imperium]] world [[Korvon II]]. However, when the Strike Cruiser neared the world{{Fn|1}}, it was attacked by a Death Guard warship and has now been boarded by the [[Traitor Legion]]. Among them is a group led by the [[Plague Marine]] [[Champion]] [[Repugnus]], who seeks to claim an Ultramarines relic that is stored aboard the Strike Cruiser and the only thing stopping him from achieving his goal, is the [[Intercessor]] squadron{{Fn|2}} led by [[Space Marine Sergeant|Sergeant]] [[Decius (Ultramarines Sergeant)|Decius]].{{Fn|1}}
Constructed in the shipyards of [[Calth]] {{PAGENAME}} for hundred years had responded for many crises across the galaxy, deploying [[Ultramarines]] to some of the [[Imperium]]'s most far battlefields and cover them with fire support from the orbit.{{Fn|3a}} But it is only during the [[Second War for Armageddon]] this vessel first made a name for itself. As a part of the multi-[[Chapter]] fleet of [[Space Marines]] {{PAGENAME}} traded fire with [[Ork]] vessels and deployed the Ultramarine onto the surface of the planet in swift [[Thunderhawks]], in the same time bombarding the Ork's battlelines. The Space Marines reinforcement broke the stalemate on the planet and helped the Imperium forces to defeat Orks. After the victory heavy damaged {{PAGENAME}} but was repaired and soon returned to duty. The ship earned great honour and respect for its faithful service and brave deeds above the [[Armageddon]]{{Fn|3a}} After the [[Great Rift]] appearance the {{PAGENAME}} served as a part of [[Indomitus Crusade]] and fought in the defence of [[Ultramar]]. The [[2nd Company (Ultramarines)|Ultramarines 2nd Company]] suffered serious casualties during these conflicts, but fortunately was reinforced with [[Primaris Space Marines]] contingent. With war unleashed on a hundred of worlds, the {{PAGENAME}} has been tasked tasked with fighting of these troops on a myriad of battlefields, many times was damaged almost beyond repair, but each time returning again with even more fury and hate to deal with the enemies of mankind.{{Fn|3b}} Though at present, [[Lieutenant (Space Marine)|Lieutenant]] [[Lucian Calsius]] of the [[2nd Company (Ultramarines)|Ultramarines 2nd Company]] is the highest ranking Ultramarine aboard the {{PAGENAME}}, often he delegates command to an officer of the [[4th Company (Ultramarines)|4th Company]], [[Romeo Sevaris]].{{Fn|3b}} As of present a [[Lieutenant (Space Marine)|Lieutenant]] [[Calsius]] has carried his strike force{{Fn|1}} to battle the [[Death Guard]]{{Fn|2}}, who have invaded the [[Imperium]] world [[Korvon II]].
