[Knight of the Raven]

Gather, children of Corax. Gather within the shadows you have mastered, away from prying eyes, and plan out with your brothers your next strikes against those who dare to oppress mankind, be they xenos or traitors. We are all the sons of the Nineteenth Legion, regardless of the colors we choose to wear when we slit the enemy's throat.

+

The goal of this thread is to bring together players of the Nineteenth Legion, whether they collect the legion before the Second Founding or one of its successor chapters, as well as provide an index of all Raven Guard-related project logs on this forum. As such, please provide a link to your workshop when you come to name your company here.

I've been helped by Flint13, SlaveToDarkness and forte. Speaking of the latter, he's improved the badge I'd prepared for the occasion for all those who wish to bear it:

I'll use my name for exemple to show what it will look like:

Ask here if you want your own badge.

And now starts the documentation of the Nineteenth Legion's might!

1st Battalion 7th Chapter "White Ravens"

 

I'll get some pics up later, and yes to a badge please and thanks

[Ekim_Trub]

It is "Victorus aut Mortis". 

[Conn Eremon]

A google search shows vinctorus to mean restraint, so I believe trub is correct.

 

Are fluff-only projects acceptable?

 

Edit: If you are open to suggestions, might it be better to separate the lists as the Raven Guard Legion, and the Raven Guard Chapter and Successors?

Edited October 26, 2014 by Cormac Airt

[Knight of the Raven]

I blame the Index Astartes. It's written Vinctorus there. Can you blame me for not trusting Lexicanum for the correct spelling? I'll correct it at once. Thanks for the heads up.

Yes, fluff-only projects are acceptable. I'm also thinking about listing fanfictions and battle reports, but you know, baby steps.

+First Founding+ is supposed to be for the legion whereas +Second Founding Onwards+ is meant for all its successors, including the Raven Guard chapter itself.

Komrk: here's the badge. I suggest you upload it in your own gallery; redundancy is safer.

Edited October 26, 2014 by Knight of the Raven

[Komrk]

Yup, will do.

[Conn Eremon]

I have to admit, that seems wonky to me, as both the Raven Guardian Legion and Chapter are considered First Founding. But if it works, it works. Cool with me.

 

Well, then. I would like to introduce my Crimson Spectres, a Raven Guard successor Chapter. One of the newest, barely a couple centuries old by the close of the 41st millennium.

 

Here is the thread to my current IA:

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/276015-ia-crimson-spectres/

 

At the moment, it is very close to its original incarnation as a /tg/ Chapter that I kind of appropriated since I was the only one that stuck around from start to finish, and it was that 90% I actually provided that was kept.

 

I intend to reinvent them, however much detail will remain the same. Please, all C&C is welcome.

[Knight of the Raven]

The Raven Guard Chapter is considered First Founding? My bad. I guess I was too literal about the Second Founding.

First post updated. Here's your badge.

[Conn Eremon]

As far as I'm aware, and a brief foray into Lexicanum and a look at my FFG books agree with me, even though technically the 2nd Founding is where all the first Chapters came from, and they were all once part of the First Founding Legions, only those Chapters that did not keep the Legion name are considered Second Founding Chapters. Those Chapters that did retain the Legion name, though technically formed simultaneously to the others, are still considered First Founding.

 

So technically you were right, as the Raven Guard Chapter was formed during the Second Founding. But the lore describes it like I said above, that the Raven Guard Chapter is a continuation of the Raven Guard Legion, and so First Founding.

 

But anywho, thanks for the badge! It's a bit difficult changing sigs on mobile, so it will be a bit before anyone sees it.

[GreyCrow]

This is an awesome idea, count me in !

 

I'd like to sign in the Ghost Warriors, a 25th founding successor Chapter of the Raven Guard !

You can find out more in my IA, even though it says from an uknown origin and rumoured to be RG geneseed, it definitely is and I haven't had the time to correct it

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292626-ghost-warriors-wip/?fromsearch=1

 

No photos of the force yet but they'll be coming !

 

Can I have a badge, pretty please ? :D

[Tiger9gamer]

currently painting my raven guard 4th company! after a lot of stripping paint and redoing stuff. A bout all the tactical marines done (50 in all) and I just need to work on the vehicles.

[Knight of the Raven]

Here are the badges.

I'll put up your 4th company as soon as I know for sure whether it's for the legion or the chapter, Tiger9gamer.

[GreyCrow]

You rock Brother Knight !

 

I should post my WIP squads this week end or at the end of the week :)

[Reviler]

My army is the reinforced 7th Co of the Revilers, a true second founding chapter.

 

Can i have a badge too please?

[Tiger9gamer]

it's for the chapter atm, legion hopefully later.

[Knight of the Raven]

Thanks for the answer.

Reviler, here's your badge:

Komrk, I've increased the size of your name on the badge to match the other short names better:

[Daemon2027]

Oh shiny badges. Yes please.

 

I'm still working on the background for my XIX legion troops, playing with the idea of a specialist black ops force, going after the Alpha Legion.

[Knight of the Raven]

If you have a name or a number for your company, please tell me so that I can add it to the roster. Same for any thread about them, please link them here.

Here's your badge:

[Ekim_Trub]

My own Chapter, the Sable Hawks, are Raven Guard successors who specialise in the use of air assault tactics. Founding unknown, but believed to be Third. 

[Daemon2027]

Thanks, I am yet to figure out all the details on company and stuff but here is my thread in the AoD section

 

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/296639-vengance-from-the-shadows/page-3

[Inquisitor Eisenhorn]

Raptors second company  :)

[Knight of the Raven]

Ta-daaaaa~

[JeffTibbetts]

Oh sweet! Yeah, I'll submit my Eagle Eyes, a Raven Guard successor chapter. 

 

Is it possible to make my badge just read Tibbs instead of my full screen name? It's my nick and it'll look a bit better, I think. 

 

Thanks for organizing this! 

[Knight of the Raven]

You're welcome.

Of course it's possible. We're Raven Guard, not Graham McNeill's Ultramarines. Here.

[JeffTibbetts]

Wow, that was fast! Are we supposed to link that to anything?
