History
Euxcine Incident
The Inceptors fought during the Macharian Crusade, but during the subsequent Macharian Heresy they came to blows with their former allies the Doom Warriors over a matter of honour. In the Euxcine system they fought a long running and protracted conflict under predetermined rules of engagement. They refused to end the conflict, and as a consequence the Minotaurs Chapter was dispatched to end it for them.2
The two Chapters were caught unprepared and, although the Doom Warriors were able to escape the system, the Inceptors were stranded on Euxcine and were systematically destroyed until fewer than a hundred Space Marines were forced to surrender. Many of the Chapter's relics, including their flagship - a Great Crusade-era assault ship - were captured by the Minotaurs. The Minotaurs were subsequently denounced across Ultramar and forbidden from entering it's boundaries. Other Ultramarine descended Chapters have also sworn vengeance against the Minotaurs.2
