I want to make a "Band of the Fallen Legions" or just "The Fallen Legions" as my CSM's It will be comprised of a bunch of different color schemed Chaos marines, each unique. All based of fallen legions, some of which arent cannon (For example, my first moddel, A Fallen Of Ultramar). Howere, I want to know the names and color schemes of ACTUAL fallen or retconed legions and gods.

Here's a starting point

Not sure if you're using the term retconed correctly, you are looking for legions that have had their canon history altered?

Either have had their canon history altered largely, preferably with a different color scheme than they have now, or ones removed compeltly like Malal (What where his colors? Did he even have any?)
Basically, if they have been removed from current lore for any reason (Be it outside meddling removing them from the lore completely, or if the legion collapsed or was destroyed)

His colours are Black and White.

hes also my personal favorite

Malice is basically Malal with the serial numbers filed off, but isn't really a retcon because Malal never existed in 40k.

All of the undivided legions were retconned, Night Lords and Word Bearers* both used to wear black and worship khorne, whilst Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion wore blue and green respectively and may or may not have worshipped Slaanesh.

* according to the Chaos Terminator article for Space Hulk at least, there was no Khornate markings on the Word Bearer pads or banner in Realms of Chaos: Slaves to Darkness, unlike the Night Lords.
