A Story of Death or Victory- The Angels of the XIXth Legion Raven Guard Pt2

Chapter 2      The 707th Expeditionary Fleet traveled through the Warp from the Khymara Sector to Warzone Tarkath, Dravik Maw's System. I, Remembrancer Landon Mar-Garet, have been spending a lot of time with XIXth Legion Chaplain Luang Pu. I was on Paraxia in what would become know as the First Defense of Praxia. I was there when the XIXth Legion armored forces led a force of Custodes, XIIth Legion, and Vth Legion against the Forces of the IVth Legion, XVIIth Legion, and the forces of

A Story of Death or Victory- The Angels of the XIXth Legion Raven Guard Pt1

I am a Rememberacer. My job as given to me by Holy Terra, is that of a documenter, as journalist, if you will. Even as I write this, I wonder if it will be read by others. I am one of lucky few, given the opportunity to join the Emperor’s Great Crusade, as the Legions bring the worlds back under the Emperor’s light. This the story of my time, or better yet, retelling of the battles of that the Angels of the XIXth Legion, Raven Guard, I witnessed. The fleet, XIXth Legion, Raven Guard, 707th Exped

Then Mother in law having some issues which means wife and I need to go back to handle it in a few weeks.  Issues were worse so wife had to leave deal them the other day and will be back

"Will they ever trust us again?"

A significant portion of the Raven Guard, including some high-ranking officers, joined the Traitor Legions. This betrayal cast a long shadow over the entire Legion, even those who remained loyal to the Emperor, like their Primarch, Corax. The shame and uncertainty the Raven Guard face as they grapple with the actions of their fallen brothers. This betrayal will have lasting consequences for the Raven Guard, making it difficult for them to regain the trust of the Imperium and even to trust themse

Designate: Moritat

" Moritat was an unofficial designation given to certain Space Marines of the ancient Legiones Astartes, who displayed suicidal urges and a blatant disregard for overall combat doctrine.   Operating independently on the battlefield, these individuals were often employed as efficient shock assault troops and tactical assassins. From its earliest days, the Raven Guard Legion employed more Moritats than did many others.   The individuals assigned to this duty were ofte

“Disrupt the Enemy Lines” part 4

“**Warzone Tarkath** * Dravik’s Maw System *   Once a dumping ground for dead fleets and rusted war machines, Dravik’s Maw now fuels the Tarkath war fronts with scrap munitions and jury-rigged armor. Its forge-slums and salvage gangs strip anything that still holds a charge, shipping parts to the system’s forges. Battles here aredesperate and dirty—fought over the bones of old wars to arm the next.”   August Mission is up:   **Week 1 Mission** Table Size:

A Story of Death or Victory- The Angels of the XIXth Legion, Raven Guard Pt1 (Updated)

Chapter I       I often pondered how I would start this tale, but I could never find the words to start. I have tons of notes on things I have seen and heard before and after the battles took place. I saw the wounded, the dead, and the dying on the flight decks of the various ships in the 707th Expeditionary Fleet. I watched Astartes leave and never return. The transports returning damaged if they returned at all.  I once saw a battle unfold before my eyes, it was battle that should no
