Merciless Spite is a warship of the Iron Warriors.

History

At some point, the flagship Merciless Spite was forced to crash land on the Feudal World Prime Gala[1a] (located in Ultima Segmentum).[1b] Colonized by House Terryn several years earlier, the planet’s Imperial Knight defenders strode out into the shallow waters to attack the crashed spaceship. The first wave, led by King Dontros, scaled one flank of the Spite, only to find its upper reaches infested by Heldrakes. The Knights fought bravely, but the Daemon Engines attacked in overwhelming numbers and ripped the Knights apart.[1a]

The second wave, attacking some weeks later, was confronted by the corrupted remnants of their former comrades. The Lord of the Merciless Spite, Admiral Vaen, had replaced each of the pilots with one of his own lieutenants. Over the next three months, the terrifying combination of Renegade Knights and Heldrakes allowed the Iron Warriors to enslave the feudal world’s population.[1a]
