So I'm making a space marine chapter for a friend, and this is my story so far, c&c welcome

The death angels are a successor of the blood angels. However there is very little known about them, for at their creation they disappeared. Now skeletal astartes wearing the death angel armor have appeared to fight enemies of the imperium. Like the legion of the damned, they disappear from the battle as quickly as they arrive. This has caught the eye of the inquisition to ponder whether or not this undead astartes are corrupted or not. There have been sightings of the death angels without heads or limbs, yet the continue to fight. Pyskers have tried to attack them, but like the pariah gene, they seem to have no souls. Their only weakness is when they are destroyed into a white mist. Their last known chapter master was known as reaper. His weapon of choice was a storm Bolter with a force weapon shaped like a syth. No one knows how it is activated without a pysker, yet I has proven it's power time and time again. The honor guard also have storm blotters, with power swords. All infantry carry storm blotters and a ccw weapon. Most enemies believe them to be slow, but the death angels move just as fast as the marines from their parent chapter.


Their rules are
Feel no pain-being already dead
Antipysker-not pyskik ability affects them, including force weapons and being turned into chaos spawn
Silence of the angels-nothing I the death angels can use tele porters or ordinance weapons
Ultamit sacrifice-if an hq is killed, place a large blast over him, any model under takes a strength 8 ap 2 hit

This so horridly broken and overpowered, I don't even know how to say it in a nice, sarcastic, roundabout way. Its just beyond broken.

Fluff is cool enough I suppose, though it does kind of step on Legion of the Damned's turf a bit.

So basically...
Legion of the Damned + Blood Angels + storm bolters?
