We are working on a few chapters for a Campaign coming up and I would love ideas, and feedback for them. This thread is were I will be posting the stuff as it is made.

First up is the

STORM TALONS
Founding Chapter: Possibly the Iron Hands
Founding: Unknown
Chapter Master: Tiberion Valantar, Lion of Tiberium

Main Colors: Hawk Turquoise, Gold, and Bleached Bone. http://sidran.deviantart.com/#/d39fl3s
Battle Cry: "We are the Bringers of the Storm, Fear the Storm"

The Storm Talons are a non-Astartes chapter that use Iron Fathers in place of Chaplains and Techmarines. They, like the Iron Hands, have a close association with the Adeptes Mechanicus. They have several unique units. The Infiltrators - Elite Snipers with similarities to Vindicare Assassins, and Stormguard. They love vehicles and can take a Battalion of Predators (3 Predators), they have an HQ Dreadnought named Jax the Undying (a Venerable Ironclad).

    Sounds cool. Maybe have a specialized siege unit to fill a role like the sanguinary guard - PA guys with Thunderhammers, incorporating a single shot melta, or wrist mounted infernus pistols? Or termies that can get dual Power or Chain fists?

    Or to blatantly rip off an idea I saw on here, a techmarine dred?

    All good Ideas. I especially like the Thunderhammer PA's with single shot meltas. I love the Techmarine Dred idea

    Whaddya think of Jax the Undying allowing Dreds to be taken in the Troop FoC Slot

    I think it'd be a fair idea, so long as it's just regular dreds.


    Automatically Appended Next Post:
    Although, if you really want to go dred heavy and have a little more variance from the regular codex you could come up with a greater variety of specialized ones. Just stay clear of blood talons. Those are lame.

    Thanks for the Idea, and Feedback. What FoC Slot would a Techmarine (Iron-Father) Dreadnought take up (Elite I assume).

    Next Chapter

    WHITE RAVENS
    Founding Chapter: Raven Guard
    Founding: 13th Founding
    Chapter Master: Cu Chulainn
    Homeworld: Eire
    Fortress Monastery: the Aerie
    Main Colors: White, Red, and Gold
    Battle Cry: "Deny us not our Honor" "Purity of our Hearts", "Strength of our Limbs" "Actions to match our Speech"
    Chapter Symbol: White Raven (Same as Raven Guard)

    The White Ravens are scions of the Raven Guard. Like the Raven Guard, their gene-seed is flawed. They are Albinos (skin and hair having little to no pigment and their eyes are red). The White Ravens favor Assault Squad Tactics, assault squad count as troops. Chaplains are Elites. Librarians are all Epistolaries, and are Called Oracles. There is a Female Psyker Character named Morrigan, not a Space Marine, but an HQ of the White Ravens nonetheless. Their names come from the Celtic Mythos. For instance they call their Tactical Squad-like unit the Fianna. They are drawn more from the Space Wolves Codex (e.g. they have a Lone Wolf unit, a Wolf Guard the Fianna like unit, etc.). Lots of Heroes.
