Legio Krytos

The Legio Krytos (God Breakers) is a Traitor Titan Legion of the Dark Mechanicum that repudiated its oaths to the Emperor of Mankind and followed the Warmaster Horus into the service of the Ruinous Powers during the Horus Heresy. The Legio Krytos is known to have participated in the Battle of Tallarn. Even before the outbreak of the Heresy, this notorious Titan Legion were known to be excessive in their pursuit of achieving Compliance and have a love for overkill.

The God Breakers were also known for making extensive use of Earthbreaker Missiles - specialised weapon that were designed to burrow into the ground before detonating, tearing terrain apart in showers of broken earth. These weapons were used extensively by the Legio Krytos to bring down fortifications, but they also proved effective in slowing the advance of enemy maniples. Perhaps as a result their preference of waging war, they tended to work closely alongside the siege breaking Iron Warriors Legion.

Notable Campaigns

 * Battle of Tallarn  -


 * Battle of Beta-Garmon - The "Titandeath"  -
 * Beneath a Blood Red Star (361012.M31) - The God Breakers came to Alpha-Garmon IX with order to level the world and rob the star cluster of its harvested energy. Anticipating the arrival of the Traitor Titans, the planet's Martian Domini called out to the Legio Atarus and Legio Astorum for aid, while massing their own regiments of Mechanicum Knight Houses. The resulting conflict turns the black plains of Alpha-Garmon IX to glass with the fury of battle, while Dark Mechanicum war-servitor clades and mutant levies clash in the tunnels below with the defenders. During the battle, many of the world's tesla-spines are felled - their kilometres-long spires crashing down among the fighting Titans.
