They were one of the Cursed Foundings, which basically amounted to a restricted list of choices from C:SM to choose from, no ATSKNF, and an upgrade that cost X points per model/squad/dread/vehicle that did something special. I think the LotD upgrade allowed the entire army to deep strike, including vehicles. They all get an inv save too, I think 6+ (including vehicles?)

The rules are in Chapter Approved 2004, or the original WD (260?) if you've got it. I'm sure your friends would let you run the rules if you can get them.

Was at my FLGS playing fantasy, and a chaos dwarf player wandered over. We got to talking about the new C:CSM (he's boycotting), and he said the best thing might be that now he could play his Legion of the Damned again! Mark of Tz gives standard marines a 5+ inv and characters / termis a 4+ inv ... He was suggesting that was all the old rules were anyways (he forgot about the whole 'entire army teleports' bit), so was kinda excited. Given the similarity of the new C:CSM and C:SM, you've got most the options you could want for a 'lost legion' with restricted levels of tech and supplies - lord / sorc for leaders, CSM and havoks for tacticals and devastators, chosen for vets, dreads for dreads, termis for termis, raptors for assault marines, bikes for bikes (2+ turbo save!), preds for preds, raiders for raiders, vindis for vindis.

So there's another route

HQ
Lord - MoT, lightning claw, twin-bolter, terminator armor = 145

Elites
4 Terminators - MoT, reaper autocannon, 2 powerfists = 200

Troops
10 CSM - MoT, plasma gun, heavy bolter, vet w/ powerfist = 255
10 CSM - MoT, plasma gun, heavy bolter, vet w/ powerfist = 255

Heavy Support
Vindicator - demonic possession = 145

1000 points

Bam! Not real psycho hot, but brings the dakka and has units I'd want to buy & play
Also would only need 2 tactical boxes, 1 terminator box, 1 vindicator box to do it up, plus whatever you want to do to convert them to Legion.
