wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Misericorde (read directly in a browser on 2026-10-02): 'a Desolator Class Battleship in service with the Word Bearers Traitor Legion'; 'The flagship of Warmaster Garand, it was his base of operations during the Arkio Heresy' (Deus Sanguinius ch. 8); 'damaged over the planet Sabien in a confrontation with the Blood Angels Battle Barges Bellus and Europae, but managed to escape into the Warp' (epilogue). NAME-COLLISION CHECK: Lexicanum full-text search for 'Misericorde' also returns Misericorde (Titan) of Legio Praesagius and a Caestus Assault Ram system, different things; no index record uses the id or label.

Desolator-class battleship, per Lexicanum Misericorde and Desolator_Battleship (Arkio_Insurrection's infobox calls her a cruiser; the vessel's own page is preferred); no archetype beyond the generic ship schematic is set.
