Fist of Macragge
The Fist of Macragge was a Battleship in the Ultramarines Legion and was commanded by Captain Hektor during the last years of the Great Crusade. Hektor had been charged by his Legion with searching out lost Human worlds and after successfully bringing the world Arkenath into Compliance, he received new orders from his Primarch Roboute Guilliman. He was to immediately journey to the Vangelis space port, to collect Captain Lysimachus Cestus and his forces there, before joining his Legion at the muster on Calth; as it prepared, to attack the Ork hordes invading the Veridian System. However, before the Fist of Macragge could enter the Warp, it was attacked[1a] and destroyed[1c] by the Word Bearers Battleship, the Furious Abyss. Its commander Zadkiel had joined his Primarch Lorgar, and the Word Bearers Legion, in turning upon the Imperium and had targeted the Fist of Macragge; in order to field test the newly built Furious Abyss' weapon systems.[1b]
