Macragge's Honour was the flagship of the Ultramarines' space fleet during the latter years of the Great Crusade, and the opening of the Horus Heresy.

History

Shortly before the Battle of Calth, the Macragge's Honour was Roboute Guilliman's headquarters for coordinating the muster of the Legion for its planned deployment to the Viridian system.

The ship came under attack from the Word Bearers' ambush, and was overrun with daemons, but was purged through the combined efforts of Guilliman, Chapter Master Marius Gage, and Sergeant Aeonid Thiel. Guilliman and a force of fifty Ultramarines also used the Macragge's Honour{'}s teleport pad to launch an assault on the orbital weapons platform occupied by Kor Phaeron and his Gal Vorbak elite warriors. When the battle turned in the Ultramarines' favour, Kor Phaeron and his surviving men retreated to the Word Bearers' flagship and attempted to flee the system. Guilliman ordered Gage to follow in the Honour, leading to one of the most infamous naval duels in Imperial history.
