If nobody answers by 9:00 am tommorow i will make my marines ultra marines (and every body knows how annoying they are)

1. Tempest Guard
2. Raven Guard (23rd founding)
3. Isiclis (eye-sick-less)
4. Very Similar to the Night Lords (dark blue/purple with the entire left side from should to shin illustrated with a vertical lightning bolt) Dark Red aquilla and ajacent shoulder pad.
5. Covert operations. Employee scouts in abundance. Homeworld has multiple moons but no direct sunlight, also has significant annual rainfall. Tempest Guard prefer element of surprise (drop pod, jet packs) and shy away from noisy machinery (bikes, tanks)
6. umm, can bench press 650 lbs? WTH is this supposed to mean?

--oops didnt read the last part....this is my DIY chapter, go find your own

1. Star Furies
2. Ultramarines (16th Founding)
3. Crusading Fleet
4. Dark Grey with pale blue trim and chest design (a sort of turquoise and ice blue mix)
5. Drop pod specialists.
6. Setup is similar to black templars so numbers become difficult to estimate. Although there would be between 700 and 800 marines due to conflicts across the galaxy

Templar Vanguard
Black Templars, by extension Imperial Fists (14th founding)
Homeworld destroyed, modified Battle Barge "Chronos" used as base of operations
Same as Templars, blue crosses instead of red, blue trim and white helmets on specialists
As Templars, ripping faces in close combat. Specialises in killing Khorne-worshippers.
Estimated strength as-of the beginning of M42: 1300 Battle-Brothers, 2 Battle Barges, 3 Strike Cruisers

And seriously, it doesn't take too much effort to invent your own

I have, i just needed a little bit of insperation...

best i have ever seen, was "the corgie army". a friend of mine made this SM army based of his dogs. all his tanks were named after past or present corgies. the chapter banner was a corgie standing on top of a pile of dog bones/treets. the librarian is "the keepper of the treats". the color scheme was of course, brown, white, and black. by far the best independent chapter i have seen.

1. battle company Muninn
2. first founding (raven guard)
3. Lycaeus (moon orbiting Kyavahr)
4. Black with white left fists
5. Hit & run, guerilla and stealth.

Hang on... so are they the raven guard or a division of the raven guard... because raven guard was a legion in the first founding, or do you mean second founding???

He is creating a wing (see what i did there) of the Raven Guard pre-/during heresy.
They are still part of the legion and not a chapter at this point.

The full fluff (so far) is here:

basically, while not a chapter, they are larger than one.
basically, the raven guard legion (80,000 SM) was split into several detachments (20,000 SM) the "Talons" are my detachment. After Istvaan, only 3,000 RG survived. Of this, 1,000 belongs to the "Talons". Of this, it is split further into battle companies (527 SM). My battlegroup is called "Muninn", for reasons posted in the above thread.
