Thanks for so many cool replies! Traitor Legiones are welcome, too btw!

I used to really like the Word Bearers, exactly for the reasons you list. Then I read The First Heretic. And I was like ... no, I can't get behind that. I mean, you have to be shocked at how the Emperor handled the Word Bearers what with Monarchia, but still - turning to Chaos willingly and with open eyes? Slaughtering your brothers in cold blood (Istvaan)? I don't want to play them anymore.
Eh, but the HERESY was too good. Chaos was the primordial truth the Emperor was trying to keep from humanity.

I love how individuals like Argel Tal hate and are disgusted by what they encounter but embrace it anyway because the truth of its existence could not be denied and by then it was already too late. Muhahaha *pure evil*
And the Angels of Darkness descended on pinions of fire and light... the great and terrible dark angels.
He was not the golden lord. The Emperor will carry us to the stars, but never beyond them. My dreams will be lies, if a golden lord does not rise.

I look to the stars now, with the old scrolls burning runes across my memory. And I see my own hands as I write these words. Erebus and Kor Phaeron speak the truth.

My hands. They, too, are golden.

My chapter is called Shounen Ninjas. It is led by the Khorne-marked Chaos Lord Naruto who dual wields a Lightning Claw and Power Fist while possessing a Daemonheart and jump pack. Some of the things I like about my chapter include the color scheme (everything is Orange with black and blue trim and red highlights), the fluffy army list (raptors, more raptors, even more raptors, warp talons, and raptor psyker sorcerers with daemon summoning no jutsu) and the playstyle (close combat blob units with high speed and tons of attacks).


This actually sounds hilarious and must be a joy to play against

It totally is. Not an altogether unheard of idea either.
