Prefect of the B’taani Penal Colony Alto was always at the forefront of the fighting he has won many honors and friends since the Penal Legion was established.

At the outset of the first Ork invasion of Armageddon, Prefect Alto had only held his rank for three years. To do battle against the Ork warlords would be a hard test of his skills as a leader and a strategist, and it was with no hesitation that the humble Alto agreed to follow Commander Dante of the Blood Angels Chapter.

In battle, Alto and his Penal legionnaires were responsible for re-capturing the Aderbein oil platform, defending one of the few bridges across the Stygies river, against a thousand-strong Ork Speed Freeks column, fighting continuously for three days and four nights and in engaging in countless skirmishes through the hostile Fire Wastes.

Prefect Alto

At the end of the campaign Dante himself sought out the Prefect Gregor Alto and praised him for his valour. This was a supreme gesture as no greater honor can be bestowed upon a warrior than the respect of one’s brothers in arms, especially from a Chapter Master of the Adeptus Astartes.

As well as praise from Dante, Alto is also highly thought of by Commissar Yarrick, because of his actions at Stygies. It is said that when these two great men finally met at the end of the first invasion, they had an instant respect for each other and when the Ork warlord invaded the planet for a second time, a far older and much wiser Alto was one of the first to respond, sending his now famous and pardoned regiments to combat the Orks.

At least three roks were destroyed by the Penal Legions attacks, killing untold thousands of greenskins and preventing the use of their deadly teleporters.
