Swordstorm — a Gloriana-class ship, the fastest of the Glorianas, flagship of Jaghatai Khan. At Chondax Khan, from its bridge, executed the “Chisel” formation, driving a wedge through the fleet of the Alpha Legion. Destroyed at Catallus, serving as a trap for Mortarion: after the Death Lord boarded in pursuit of Jaghatai, a suicide squad of Sagyar Mazan (penitent White Scars) switched the shields back on.
