Northwind
The Northwind is a Strike Cruiser in the White Scars Chapter and is the command ship of Batbayar Khan and his 4th Brotherhood. Under his command, the Strike Cruiser took part in the Second Agrellan Campaign, until the White Scars' Homeworld, Chogoris, was invaded and Batbayar was ordered to go to its aid. However, after leaving Agrellan, the Northwind was struck by a Warp Storm that caused it to emerge from the Warp, close to the Damocles Gulf. Before it could continue its journey to Chogoris, though, Batbayar was contacted by his Battle Brother and old friend, Nergui who was currently serving as a Deathwatch Captain on the Watch Station, Picket's Watch.[1a] He informed Batbayar that the Deathwatch needed the Khan's aid in destroying a T'au Empire Stormsurge facility on Proth, whose destruction would win great glory for the 4th Brotherhood. At first Batbayar refused, stating that Chogoris needed his Brotherhood's aid, but Nergui ultimately convinced the Khan to aid the Deathwatch.[1b] The two forces would succeed in destroying the Stormsurge facility and afterwards, Batbayar immediately ordered the Northwind to leave for Chogoris.[1c]
