Upon taking command of his Legion, Perturabo reviewed the war record of his new forces. After heavily analyzing their record, effectiveness, doctrines, and practices, Perturabo found them wanting.

Wouldn't it be one in 9? I thought that the extra 2 were erased from existence by GW

Thanks for the explanation. Didn't realize that Purtarabo decimated his own legions
