Tyrant's Legion
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Tyrant's Legion were the Planetary Defence Forces who served Lugft Huron after he had crowned himself as the "Tyrant of Badab" during the buildup to the Badab War. These troops were drawn from the historically isolationist PDFs of worlds under the control of the Astral Claws around the Maelstrom. These forces were massively reorganised and retrained by the Astral Claws, becoming an effective fighting force under a unified command structure. Elements within the legion judged as "weak" were purged by Huron.[1]
Originally battling Corsairs and pirates, the Tyrant's Legion became important auxiliaries for Huron's renegade forces during the Badab War.[1]
