As said before , Legion is more "chaos" ,as for ex. even legion of the damned is not purely "clean" . Of coure there are expections but you know morsly is : black legion, alfa legion ect

Crimson Wolves it fits for SM founded from SW

Cromnson guard are arleady a chapter ( there are a link in a above post

So i propose the crimson shadows as a name

I thought bout a name for my blood angel successors, the bloodguard ???

Don't make a chapter with the word "Legion" in it's name. There are no more legions...
And calling them the 10th Legion is even worse, since there actually was a thing called 10th Legion and they are Iron Hands.

Crimson Guard would be my choice. Mainly because Guard is a strong word that tells what you stand for. To protect Imperium.

Sorry if someone already noted these things, didn't read the thread that well.

Your right i should have a bit of lore in here to.

They value tactics and strategy above honor but they does not mean that there is none present. if the task requires a frontal assault so be it. If they can end the war with one shot from a scout sniper. let it be done. if the fighting stops at night they wont. ETC. also reason for The 10th Legion is because i am a huge Dungeon siege Fan and so i like that part of the games lore but i see thats a bad idea. Also i am amending the Crimson Shades name to the Crimson Shadow

Well, that fluff doesn't really add any inspiration for which to choose. I think Crimson Wolves sounds too much like Space Wolves to be a good name for a Codex chapter. The link to Lexicanum shows the Crimson Legion as a lost Blood Angels successor, so again probably not a great name for a Codex chapter. I wouldn't be dissuaded by the tiny amount of info about Crimson Shades or Crimson Guard from using either one of those. There's a paint scheme for Guard, but no one will care. Frankly, I'd be surprised if you ever encountered someone who knew that there was an existing chapter with a different paint scheme, because I don't think they've ever featured in the fluff.

I think both Crimson Shades and Crimson Guard would be good choices. Given the color scheme, I'm more inclined toward Crimson Shades. I don't actually like Crimson Shadow at all, because Shadow is not an appropriate or inspiring collective noun for Marines.

10th Legion is taken. Try to go with a name that suggests their founding or their mentality. I went for Iron Sentinels, it does both and it just sounds awesome
