Eventually Berossus met Honsou in battle during the latter stages of the war, where he almost killed Honsou with a [[Assault Drill|siege drill]]. However, Honsou's [[Daemonhost]] bodyguard [[Onyx (Iron Warriors)|Onyx]] managed to inflict enough damage to Berossus's dreadnought form. His sarcophagus was opened by Housou, who proceeded to rip Berossus's head from the [[Mind Impulse Unit]] of the dreadnought and crush it for all to see. Berossus's troops then defected to Honsou shortly after his death.{{Fn|1c}}
==Dreadnought Chassis==
Although the exact chassis make used by Berossus is unknown, the publication of [[Dead Sky, Black Sun]] allows to infer it was most likely a [[Castraferrum Dreadnought]] pattern.
This chassis had been heavily modified over the millennia since the Horus Heresy, stated to have a “leering skull-faced sarcophagus” with a bronze [[vox-caster]]. It’s leg assembly had been substantially widened and strengthened to support heavy breaching equipment such as a piston driven [[siege hammer]] and an [[assault drill]] ringed with several heavy caliber cannons. Mounted on his back were four thick iron arms ending in a variety of picks, blades, claws, and heavy gauge breachers.
