The Mistral is a Strike Cruiser in the Wrathhost Chapter and is among its forces serving in the Wardens of the Gauntlet.[1]

History

The Wardens defend the Nachmund Gauntlet for the Imperium and among the battles the Mistral took part in, was the Desolation of the Stones of Cavadi. There, at the behest of Inquisitor Kirs Drova, the Wrathhost's fleet worked to cleanse a large asteroid field of Pirates that were preying on nearby Imperial worlds and shipping lanes. The Chapter at first thought it would be an easy campaign, as the Stones of Cavadi were infested with numerous Pirate groups, who they assumed would not defend each other. The Wrathhost were soon proven wrong, though, as the Pirates worked together to fight the Chapter and a drawn out battle commenced. While the Pirates were eventually killed or captured, the Mistral was heavily damaged in the fighting.[1]
