Editing Ultramarines Honour Company (section)

==History==
In the immediate aftermath of the [[Horus Heresy]], [[Roboute Guilliman]], decreed that his Legion would stand ready to oppose the Traitors who had fled into the [[Eye of Terror]]. The Ultramarines had taken no part in the Battle of Terra, as they had been bogged down for much of the Horus Heresy fighting the [[Battle of Calth|Shadow Crusade]] against the [[Word Bearers]]. But Guilliman declared that his Legion would never again find itself unable to respond to the more pressing threat. The solution was to ensure a continuous Ultramarines presence in the vicinity of the Eye of Terror, by maintaining an honour company within the region made up of a rotation of individual squads from different companies.

After the [[Second Founding]] split the Ultramarines Legion up into many different Successor Chapters, this company became supplied with squads and officers drawn from all of the Ultramarines' Successors.

===13th Black Crusade===
Noted actions of the Honour Company include defending an Agri-World from [[Abaddon]]'s fleet which included Planet Killer. This counter attack gave the [[Planetary Defence Force]] the chance to evacuate the civilian population before the planet was destroyed.

Then they deployed themselves to Cadia where they performed boarding actions against a series of space hulks that were being used to transport Chaos Cultists throught the warzone. Three hulks were disabled, leaving [[Grimdark|600,000 traitors to freeze in space]] (which Chaos really should have mutated them against) while a fourth was destroyed using a seismic detonator and killing a further 200,000 (lol).
