Legio Invigilata

The Legio Invigilata (Emperor's Guard) is a Loyalist Titan Legion of the Collegia Titanica, one of the military arms of the Adeptus Mechanicus. The Emperor's Guard hail from the Forge World of Voss Prime, located in the Segmentum Solar. This is the Forge World closest to the Armageddon System. There is very little information in Imperial records about this Titan Legion's founding, though it is believed that they were founded before the Age of the Imperium, during the Age of Strife.

Notable Campaigns

 * Third War for Armageddon (998.M41) - Ork Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka launched a second and even more massive Ork WAAAGH! to conquer the Imperial world of Armageddon in 998.M41. During the Third War for Armageddon the Legio Invigilata supported the Black Templars Space Marine Chapter and the Imperial Guard's 101st Regiment of the Armageddon Steel Legion. The Legio Invigilata fielded 19 Titans, made up of a full complement of Warhound, Reaver, Warlord and Imperator-class Titans. These Imperial forces were instrumental in the defence of Hive Helsreach from a massive Ork assault.

 * Ironsworn - A Warlord-class Titan that participated in the Third War for Armageddon. The Ironsworn was destoryed by the same type of trap that the Draconian fell to, but as it was retreating from Helsreach rather than during the battle itself.

Notable Personnel

 * Asavan Tortellius - Tortellius was a Tech-priest who served aboard the Imperator-class Titan Stormherald. During the Third War for Armageddon, Tortellius was one of the few remaining surviviors living in the massive Imperial cathedral dedicated to the Cult Mechanicus that had been built above the Stormherald 's shoulders and he maintained the Gun Servitors that defended the cathedral.

 * Lonn - Moderati Secundus of the Imperator-class Titan Stormherald. Lonn miraculously survived the Stormherald 's destruction, but was killed seconds later by Orks as they swarmed the downed Titan to loot it.
 * Valian Carsomir - Moderati Primus of Stormherald and Princeps Majoris Zarha Mancion's representative to the Imperial command structure for the Legio Invigliata during the Third War for Armageddon. Carsomir was shot by Moderati Secundus Lonn after he effectively sealed the Stormherald 's fate by firing its weapons too early.
 * Zarha Mancion - Princeps Majoris of the Stormherald and overall commander of the Legio Invigilata. Like the Princeps of most Imperator-class Titans, Mancion was suspended in a cybernetic tank that connected her permanently to her Titan's Machine Spirit and could no longer survive having her mind disconnected from the Stormherald 's Mind Impulse Unit (MIU). Mancion was onboard her Titan when it was destroyed by the Ork Gargant Godbraker.
