I’m creating a terminator heavy chapter, with loads of psy and heavy infantry, i’m trying to come up with a nice color scheme but it’s hard to do because of the initial fluff I have for them. They are a Space Marines chapter who are all the last survivors of their planets that have died from war with Xenos scum across the galaxy. I’m thinking of a nice deaths head motif, with an metallic blue base with ice blue and silver trim, but it looks to much like the Ultra Marines, so I’m looking for a different color scheme and thought I would get some help. Another thing that I would need is a good name for them (I like The Lost but thought it might be to close to the lost and the damned).thanks for the help (and now that I have my camera back from the shop I will be able to post some pics soon YAY!!!).

Not entirely sure I'm supposed to be plugging other sites on here, but I found this awhile ago while researching for a Space Marine Chapter I was going to build:

Kinda cool, lots of info. As for your color scheme, when I think psykers and the like, I see purple/gold. Not sure why, but it seems to be a neglected color in the Citadel color line...just a thought.

Intresting idea. BUt one thing i should say to you is. USE BOLTER AND CHAINSWORD!
Also what is your home planet like. Also what is their main goal. what are their rank. who are they based on. What are they? What is their ideal tactic. For instance my chapter has 50 companies. this due to their agreement with the inqusition. But their color Scheme is Dark Green with arms corresponding to each company.
Storm Crusaders is my chapter name. Think of elements and what your chapter would be like. hell i went through 12 different names before staying with this one.
