Conqueror

Conqueror — a Gloriana-class ship, Angron’s flagship (formerly the War Hounds’ Adamant Resolve), refitted for his methods of war with an “Ursus Claw” harpoon array. Flag captain — Lotara Sarrin. In the Shadow Crusade the World Eaters slaughtered Nuceria to the last living soul; by the Siege of Terra the ship had been deeply corrupted by Chaos, and its Machine Spirit animated the dead crew with phantoms.

More

Formerly the War Hounds’ Adamant Resolve, the ship became Angron’s flagship on his reunion with the legion and was refitted for the primarch with an “Ursus Claw” harpoon array — with it Conqueror struck enemy vessels from afar and dragged them in to be boarded. Lotara Sarrin served as flag captain; the vessel was counted among the largest Glorianas. After the Shadow Crusade and Angron’s ascension to Daemon Prince the ship crept toward corruption: by the Siege of Terra most of the crew had been slaughtered by Angron and his frenzied World Eaters, and Sarrin persuaded Khârn to lead the primarch down into the holds and teleport him into the labyrinth of Nightfall. Conqueror took part in the destruction of the Emperor’s flagship Imperator Somnium; its daemon-corrupted Machine Spirit, merged with Lotara Sarrin, took the vessel into the Eye of Terror under Shâhka, where it expired after Skalathrax.

Fate

Survived the Heresy; its daemon-corrupted Machine Spirit gained sapience, Captain Lotara Sarrin merged with the vessel; it fled to the Eye of Terror under Shâhka and expired after Skalathrax.
