This is a record of my chapter and its deeds and its lore. For those of you who have been wondering what my sig was talking about this a blog talking about my custom chapter that has taken my 2 years to start and to refine.

The Storm Crusaders are an ancient Chapter, being founded during an unknown founding. Though they can trace it back to the 3rd founding. They have fought in major campaigns in the ghoul stars. They are known as the “The Storm’s last Crusade.” Hence their chapter name is apporiate. The Storm crusaders are venerable warriors and fight with unmatched fury with the blade, though they are famed for their use with halbrieds. A Very unusual skill among astrates.

The Crusaders are a massive chapter and do not adhere to the codex astrates at any points but follow the Codex Ignatus, a tome created by the Storm Crusader’s 2nd Arch Templar, Malnar with much aid from his predecessor and his first captain, the only similarities are maintaining, a Libarius, Techmarines, Chaplains, Devastators, Tactical, Scouts, and Assualt squads the two are almost completely different. The Storm Crusaders have been highly successful though when it comes to prolonged sieges, defenses, and campaigning. Such is their skill with this the chapter usually employs entire companies filled with siege weaponry. The chapter itself maintains 34 companies. For every 10 companies there are in the Storm Crusaders these 10 are lead by 1 Grand Templar. In total there are 3 Grand Templars.
The Chapter then also maintains Other Astartes that form either the 15th, 31st, 32nd, 33rd, or 34th companies.
The Firebirds Classified as Criminals of the Chapter that are sent on pentience Crusades as a company. (Assualt Marines with Bolters) 31st
The Paladins Classified as the Honor Guard of the Chapter Maintain only 124 of them at a time. (Honor Guard) (COnsider to be the 15th Company)
The Reavers used to cause disruption in enemy lines. Teleport into battle with sosphicated technology. (Legion of the Damned) 32nd
The Siege Company Techmarines and specialists used to construct defenses. (Extra Vechile Drivers) 33rd
The First Guardians. Guard the Fortress Monestary gifted most relics of the chapter. And Guard the Vaults. None of them are pyskers. Only 80 of them are active at a time. 34th

Libarian Orders. (Taken from thousand sons, but different tasks)
Disliked by puriests of the chapter. Maintain only 120 Members.

Please skip to page 10 to read new lore.....

We are looking forwards to pics.

Please post pics to maintain a legitimate place in the P&B Blogs forum.

Well i do have some photos but they just are too blurry.




Alright here the pictures.
Also these pics were taken 4 months ago so they are outdated.
Then a basic idea of how i paint my models.



Automatically Appended Next Post:
Well Anyway.
I am also starting to build up my terrian which will take forever.
Comments, questions?? if not i'll bring in my secert weapon. >.<

Aren’t all second founding chapters 10 companies? Looking forward to pics.

No. look at the Black Templars.

Alrighty i need help and comments if you do not like my lore please critised.




Since this picture was taken i have added an additional predator, and i have redone the Vindicator
And i have also added 3 razorbacks, and 3 rhinos, and 1 drop pod, and 2 dreadnoughts.
Giving me a grand total of 5 dreadnoughts.




planning on remaking this, ever since i hated this thing, it has had a record of never killing anything, instead its known for its expolsions of itself. (damn overload).
I have been wondering should i get a crusader or get a regular one of this? My other Land Raider is a regular one, and it is awesome : D. (thank you ebay)

I...don't see any pictures anywhere.

Me either...

I'd love to see some though!

You're all blind. The pictures are right there.

No they are not.

There is no spoon...

Well i Have been working on some stuff. and the question still stands what should i get?
a Venerable Dreadnought (plastic kit)
or a land raider crusader/redeemer.

1: Need pics. It's in P&M after all.

2: BT have more than 10 Companies (At last record, they're almost at Legion strength of 10,000) because they're a Crusading army that operates on the galactic fringes and does a lot of fighting against the Orks. They have no homeworld. The Inquisition has tried to get them declared Excommunicate multiple times for their extremely excessive numbers, but because they're fanatically zealous even by marine standards, because they're crucial to the backbone of the galactic West, and because they have no single homeworld and are thus always moving, they get off with nothing more than hurt feelings. Not to sound like a fluff Nazi or a buzzkill, but I really would think it unlikely that the bit of extra leash given to the BT would be extended to other chapters, considering the level of flak the BT already get.

Well My chapter attucally are part of the inqusition, the Storm Crusaders first chapter Master Asherian made a deal with the inqustion that the storm crusaders would lend half their chapter to the purposes of the inqustion and the other half would be campaiginers or defenders agianst the enemies of the imperium. The Strom Crusaders bascially were seperated, and every time they excude the amount of 7,000 they are to break down to form a new chapter. And so far there are 10 chapters that are descended from this.
My chapter is everywhere right now its in the ghoul stars, Armageddon, Grimnar (writing story on this one), Cadia, Calin system, and the southern imperium. On top of that the chapter is also fighting a war agianst Chaos Forces, in the systems surronding the MaelStorm. Only 7 compaines are stationed in The Home Systems.
Heres the Break Down where the chapter is.
1st,2nd, 10th, 22nd, Grimnar System.
4th, 5th, 14th, 23rd, Ghoul Stars
6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 16th, 17th and 18th Armageddon.
19th, 20th Cadia
24th, 25th, 26th Southern Imperium
27th, 21st, 15th, and Alpha Squadron Calin System.

So...

The Inquisition already have the GK though. Why would they want/need another Chapter when they can just pull a mandate out of their arseholes and comandeer a chapter whenever they need to?

In IA7 the Inquisition uses SM other than the GK, whom have Inquisitional markings.

On a side note. Tommrrow i will put up new pictures, because my models are being worked on.... I will show the 10th company!

Qualude wrote:In IA7 the Inquisition uses SM other than the GK, whom have Inquisitional markings.

Probably, like I said, a Chapter that they've comandeered for the full duration of the campaign and fixed some nice big "I"s on them for the "You mah b***h now!" factor. But as far as I know, the Inquisition doesn't actually own any Chapter other than the GKs

Ordo Xenos has the Deathwath...

That's not a chapter. That's just a group made up from all the different chapters. It's made up of sm who show a knack for killing xenos scum.

Well myself and the Lexicanum are going to disagree with you. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Deathwatch

Deathwatch -Is- a Chapter of sorts, it just doesn't recruit in the same way as the other Chapters, and it's rank and file aren't permenent. I guess it could be called a "Half-Chapter"

Well Anyway heres something.
The Chapter maybe 5,000 but, the 2,000 space marines are on a crusade are very different than their campaigning brethren. Basically the 2,000 crusaders are a seperate chapter in its own right, as they have their own chapter master, and they get their own types of recuritment. Each part of the chapter works differently and indepedently. Like the Alpha Squadron, which consists of marines from the successor chapters and any other elite marines in the entire chapter.
I also found this thanks to Dakkadakka

It looks like as if i got my self some custom stuff!

Asherian Command wrote:No. look at the Black Templars.

Oh, yeah, forgot about them. Aren’t they like the size of several chapters because they are spread out over several crusade fleets? But they are only a thousand on paper

Thought about converting a few jacks myself for an admech force. Looking forward to see your take on them.

Well I am looking for them i can't seem to find the seller.
I probaly asked this before but. Should i remake my Land Raider Terminus into either a Crusader or a Phobus?(regular)
I've read some stuff on Warmachine and apparently they are not worth the money. So do not buy some of them because they have too much mold lines. Just a little warning. But i will start my grey knight army as well.

I'm seeing a lot of stuff in this thread except for painting and modelling. :(

Moving to 40k Background, as this thread has no painting or modeling to be seen.

Thank you mess up when i put it to the P and M. Wasn't thinking straight staying up until midnight tends to do that to you.
Anyway Today I painted an entire tactical squad! First Tactical i have ever painted and so far they attucally look good.

Give us a link to a real p&m blog!
