How would these marines be organised, would they retain any of their original customs?

Would the Angels Sanguine recruits show their possible mutation?

How would it affect the Death Company?

How would they stop the animosity between the different factions?

Anybody out there got any ideas?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1355293.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1355293.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363492.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363492.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query
Every astropathic message or ship sent by the Blood Angels to request information and assistance comes back empty handed or unanswered...

So in game/fluff terms, until the BA Codex is released in April, assume that they're exactly the same in terms of organisation, loadouts, equipment, tactics and genetic flaws.

Unless you want to play as the Lamenters, in which case to stick with the fluff you're just a bog-stock Astartes Chapter who'll roll an awful lot of ones...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363657.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363657.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

They never remove thier helmets-even amongst thier battle brothers, they wear hoods. No-one really knows why, but the two most popular theories is that they either are all vampiricly ugly, or more interestingly they all look like Sanguinius.

Either that, or their terrible secret is that they're neither bald nor screaming and don't want others to know.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363942.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1363942.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364194.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364194.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

Not quite. There were 10 loyal chapters at the end of the Heresy. There are around 1000 now. And once the First Founding Chapters had split, successors were taken from their successors, and so on, so not every one was taken from the original 10.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364211.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364211.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

Yes, I'm 99.9% they do. The ones you've listed there are just the second founding chapters, there could be any number of succesors after them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1364270.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

The series the OP did refer to had 6-10 successors contributing a "tithe".
Already this series is at the next installment, "black tide". ( BA and FT team up to hunt bile. ).
Seems the BA get neophytes, or newly promoted battlebrothers as "tithe", so most of them will able to adopt to the BA way and form a BA force and have them follow the BA traditions.

Would assume the new BA are put into mixed squads. Pure chapter [ insert successor here ] marine squads may lead to undesired
effects, like elitism, and such...

The Ultramarines being the largest legion produced the most second founding chapters.

Seeing as though it was the Blood Angels who committed a high proportion of their legion to the defense of Terra they would have suffered the most casualties prior to the second founding.

Not to mention all gene seed is screened by the Adeptus Mechanicus it stands to reason they would have relatively few successor chapters to limit the affect of the genetic curse that afflicts them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1365770.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1365770.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

Black Tide is only set a few months after Red Fury so there wouldn't be time to fully transform raw recruits, so they must already have been scouts in their respective initial chapters, which would mean they were already most of the way through the implantation process.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1366750.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1366750.page GMT Blood Angels - successor chapter tithe query

Just to nitpick, there was not one single "Chapter" (in the M40 sense of the word) at the end of The Heresy. There were 20 Legions, 9 loyal, 9 traitor and 2 unknowns.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1366785.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/280620/1366785.page GMT
