[Guest Chaplain DeValion]

Chapter Name > Razor Hawks

 

Combat Doctrine/Tactics > The use of mobile TSQs in RZRBCKS, while the SSQs infiltrate. The ASQS will provide the flanking and maneuverability. The LSSQs bring in the heavy firepower. Well this is the plan anyways.

 

Beliefs > the chapter believes in fighting with honor until death, having courage when the end is near, commitment to chapter, Emperor. The people of Ikarion IV believe in two things: one being the almighty, god like Emperor and the other being the magnificent Razor Hawk that lives on all land masses of the planet. The people of Ikarion IV see the Razor Hawk as many things: power, freedom, strength, courage, honor, commitment

ADEPTUS ASTARTES � WIDOWMAKERS

 

Founding:

 

The Widowmakers are believed to have been founded in the centuries just preceding the Gothic War as part of the 23rd Founding. The source of the gene-seed used is that of the Raven Guard but is strongly suspected to have either been modified by the Adeptus Mechanicus or utilized some purer form of Raven Guard geneseed not corrupted by the experiments of Corax, their primarch. Adalius Clade and Albus Shaw of the Raven Guard were the chapter�s first Chapter Master and Reclusiarch respectively.

 

 

History:

 

The earliest record of the Widowmakers in battle was as a raiding unit used to destabilize worlds Chaos conquered during the Gothic War. Although the chapter had been in existence for several hundred years by that point the chapter was still reportedly understrength. The reason for this is unknown.

 

The Gothic War saw the chapter doing hit and fade missions on worlds newly conquered by Abaddon�s forces to give hope to any resistance remaining and prevent the Chaos forces from entrenching themselves. This diverted Chaos mainforce units and eased the eventual reconquest.

 

The most notable engagement from this period was the relief of the siege of Heraclea which saw the Widowmakers making teleport strikes on the newly captured orbital stations simultaneously with raids on the rear support areas of Chaos units bombarding Heraclea Primus. The resultant distraction allowed the ruling family and 3 IG regiments to successfully withdraw offworld before the planet�s fall. The chapter then engaged in a systematic destruction of the world�s infrastructure before withdrawing to leave nothing for the enemy to exploit. Several friendly PDF units were wiped out attempting to resist this scorched earth measure.

 

The Widowmakers were later seconded to Inquistor Abram Koln during his purge of chaos cultists in the Castlereagh system. This marked the first direct influence of the Inquisition on the Widowmakers. The chapter has had great fortune in its collaboration with the Ordos and it was shortly thereafter that the chapter was selected as one of the five chapters used in the Inquisition�s Aegis Directive. Whether this was done due to the chapter�s success in battle or to supervise their activities is uncertain.

 

This initiative utilized a number of chapters who possessed mobile fortress monasteries to be dispatched to troubled regions for prolonged periods to either address Xenos threats or to promote doctrinal conformity amongst areas perceived to be lacking in loyalty to the Imperium. Along with the Scarlet Guard and Manticores, the Widowmakers were sent to fringes of the Maelstrom in approximately 40279, taking Kaifa as their tithe world.

 

There the Widowmakers engaged in shipping interdiction and Inquisitorial raids into the Maelstrom itself to try to blunt the raids mounted by the Wordbearers and other renegades. This proved of limited success as the temporal distortions and navigational issues prevented the Widowmakers from successfully coordinating their assaults.

 

Phaleron came as the next tithe world and this period was one of declining success as the Widowmakers proved unable to halt the tide of unexplained raids by unknown attackers in the subsector. Despite the notable success of the chapter in destroying the Kabal of the Vacant Soul at Thafir Thracia the overall number of raids actually increased. The chapter was able to prevent several raids but could never locate the metallic raiders� stronghold.

 

The chapter has recently been given Ashkelon on the Eastern Fringe (Segmentum Ultima) as its newest tithe world in an effort to diminish Tau expansion and provide support to the efforts to slow the advance of the hivefleets. Ashkelon had been the site of anti-Imperium riots and diminished tithes from the planetary governor for almost a generation�

 

Homeworld:

 

The Widowmakers� fortress monastery �Latrodectus Achaema�, is a heavily modified Ramilies class starfort seized early in the chapter�s history. At the end of each 337 year cycle, a new tithe world is mutually selected by the High Lords and Chapter Master and the chapter�s fleet falls into orbit around that world shortly thereafter.

 

The worlds selected are invariably worlds experiencing turmoil or a lapse of Imperium control. After the chapter reestablishes compliance, the Widowmakers will expand their control throughout the system and begin settling a contingent of citizen serfs drawn from stock taken from their original homeworld Araneae. These warriors will ensure that a nucleus of loyal followers from which to recruit and to serve as an example to the new tithe world by their conduct.

 

Organization:

 

The Widowmakers are set up along basic codex lines with some notable deviations. The first company has approximately 200 members with a significant portion of those brothers on detached duty as veteran sergeants in the other battle company squads, as trainers for the 10th company, as commanders of ships for fleet actions and supplemental squads to complete specialized tasks for the other battle companies. Their normal effective fighting strength is usually kept around 120.

 

The battle companies (companies 2 � 7) are composed almost identically to that of the Codex Astartes with the substitution of an additional assault squad for a devastator squad. The 8th and 9th companies are journeyman companies in which recent initiates train extensively in power armor and complete cadre or relatively simple missions such as patrols or garrisoning strongpoints.

 

Their focus is entirely on building unity with their brethren and in learning to work within the battle company formation. Once the journeyman period is complete the squad will be transferred under the leadership of a veteran to one of the battle companies to replace losses. Casualties with the various battle company squads are addressed by collapsing decimated squads into the larger squads within the company.

 

The 10th company is comprised of approximately 500 recruits in various stages of gene-seed implantation. Several squads from this company are attached to each battle company to provide battlefield intelligence and support and developing the extensive infiltration skills that the chapter is noted for. Combat encounters will frequently see a squad or two being present in a supporting role but most often the scouts will be far from the battlefield developing the data for a drop pod assault or armored raid.

 

The Widowmakers shun the use of bikes as too noisy for effective reconnaissance and ineffective in a battlefield role. For long range scouting of large enemy formations and harassing actions a limited number of land speeder variants are employed but most recon is performed by the 10th company scout squads as the Widowmakers feel there is no substitute for careful direct visual reconnaissance acquired by chapter members on the ground.

 

Recruitment:

 

The chapter generally recruits from technologically limited mountainous worlds within patrol distance of their former tours. These worlds have historically been arid and well above the Imperium norm in temperature. The chapter also retains rights to recruit from its former tithe worlds and will return approximately every generation to select its initiates.

 

The Widowmakers� system of selection is notable in that the marines are generally not directly involved in the testing itself. Instead traditional games of physical and mental prowess lasting a lunar month are established during the chapter�s service . Local leaders administer the rites and conduct the games themselves.

 

When the time of testing returns the chapter will send representatives back to infiltrate into the area to observe the games and the conduct of the participants outside the games themselves. An emphasis is placed on selecting candidates who can cooperate as necessary and who have treated the other participants fairly. While the games are frequently lethal by nature, dishonorable conduct will result in that participant meeting �an accident� prior to the end of the proceedings.

 

Those deemed worthy are abducted during the last night of the games to �become one of the chosen of God�. In their place items of beneficial technology such as a lasgun or solar generator are left in their place to ease the loss of a potential hero to the family and clan.

 

New recruits are scrutinized to exceptional levels for genetic purity. This is part of a program conducted by the Widowmakers’ apothecaries to prevent any further damage to the geneseed and limit the introduction of any new variables into the already damaged geneseed.

 

Combat Doctrine:

The early deployment of the Widowmakers has profoundly affected their doctrinal mindset. Being pressed into battle significantly below strength taught them to make every shot count, infiltrating into position to get the best angle on their target. A key feature of any Widowmakers assault is a simultaneous assault from multiple directions by both assault units and long range fire support. Infantry squads will either engage in long range firefights and constantly redeploy or will infiltrate closer to engage the enemy at close range and overwhelm them.

 

While the Widowmakers specialize in infiltration and sudden assaults, in situations that limit such actions the Widowmakers will engage in hit and run tactics utilizing long range units to pick off isolated enemy formations to thin their ranks and weaken their morale. As the enemy masses to address the threat the Widowmakers will fade away and a new assault will begin on an isolated or exposed enemy unit.

 

Beliefs:

The Widowmakers believe in the divinity of the God-Emperor as evidenced by the perfection of his teachings. While to the uninitiated many of the Imperial precepts appear harsh or cruel, they are the most efficient way of preserving humanity and thus show the divine inspiration.

 

The Widowmakers are essentially Amalathian in philosophy but ruthless in their execution of that belief. In accord with traditional Amalathian canon they see their role as that of preserving the Imperium as envisioned by the Emperor but also strive toward restoring the unity the Imperium evidenced during the Great Crusade. The Widowmakers take a dim view of any infighting amongst the Adeptus and will act unilaterally to set an example for the dissenters but any direct hindrance to their efforts will be met without mercy or respite.

 

Battlecry:

Rarely stated due to the chapter�s emphasis on misdirection and stealth but the ones most commonly heard uttered by Widowmakers have been �Faith Endures� and �His Will Be Done�.

 

Geneseed:

The Widowmakers use the geneseed of the Raven Guard but the Widowmakers do not seem to show the same level of severe damage done to the geneseed by Corax’s experiments. The apothecaries subject the geneseed used in new recruits to the utmost scrutiny and utilize only the purest geneseed under all but the direst situations but it would be pure conjecture to conclude that any improvement is a direct correlation of this practice.

 

The Bletcher’s Gland is missing but the Mucranoid gland functions at minimal levels. In a Widowmaker the Mucranoid will provide protection from minor exposures to intense sunlight or mild doses of radiation but the Chapter’s apothecaries see the improvement in the gland’s functioning as fragile and the Widowmakers’ doctrine calls for combat operations to be conducted in sealed armor. The trademark paleness rendered by the Ravenguard geneseed is lessened among the Widowmakers but this may be attributable to the pool of Widowmakers recruits being from worlds with olive-skinned or darker complexioned populations.

 

The apothecaries of the Widowmakers spend the vast majority of their time working with the geneseed and the induction process of the large recruit pool. It is very rare to see the chapter’s apothecaries on the battlefield in any great number.

 

Traits:

Cleanse and Purify

See but Don�t Be Seen

Notable Personalities:

 

Kedron Haik:

 

Haik has recently ascended to Chapter Master after the death of prior Master Iskander Demades fighting Tau raiding cadres. Prior to his elevation Haik served as the Captain of the Fifth Company and is best known for his destruction of the Kabal of the Vacant Soul in the Thafir Thracia system.

 

Decades of punishing slave raids by the Kabal saw no end in sight despite a vast increase in patrols by the subsector battlefleet. Haik disembarked the non-marine crew of his strike cruiser, The Narrow Path, and shut down all power to the ship which rested in the shadow of the system�s third moon, relying solely on careful replacement of the batteries to the power armor of his marines to sustain them for weeks.

 

Haik�s patience was rewarded when the Narrow Path�s passive sensors showed an anomaly near the solar edge of the small unsettled second moon quickly followed another raid. Haik responded by harrying the Dark Eldar ships on the return leg. Haik�s boarding of the Dark Eldar archon�s crippled flagship provoked the archon into a frenzy and the balance of the Kabal was summoned to deal with the temerity of monkeigh.

 

As the Dark Eldar reinforcements emerged from the Webway they were answered by other waiting Widowmaker ships summoned to the area by astropathic signal. The Widowmakers primary battle barge Call to Glory then bombarded the second moon into fragments choking the exit of the revealed webway portal. The Kabal�s reinforcements emerged into the newly created asteroid field shredding their thinly armored hulls. As Haik finished the archon in personal combat, the remaining Dark Eldar were then either destroyed ship to ship or exterminated when they fled into the debris field by further destruction of the larger asteroids.

Chapter Name: The Rune Blades

 

Chapter Master: Master Balroth

 

Homeworld: Katarn, Draconis Sector, Ultima Segmentum

 

Genestock: Ultramarines

 

Colour: Black

 

Brief Founding Details

 

The Rune Blades were founded early in the 41st millenium in response to heavy losses suffered by the Imperium from Abaddon’s recent Black Crusade, as well as increased activity from the Tau on the Eastern Fringe.

 

As per usual, the High Lords of Terra contacted the Adeptus Mechanicus on Mars, and the great seal to the vault storing the Space Marine gene-seed was opened once more. Also as per usual, the gene-seed came from the Ultramarines gene-stock.

 

Despite the fact that most of the fighting men of a new Space Marine chapter are created anew, the Adeptus Astartes have long since recognised the value of taking several long serving and mighty heroes from existing chapters to provide the Commanders of the new Chapter.

 

This time, the High Lords turned to the lord of the Ultramarines, Marneus Calgar to provide advice on who would command this new Chapter. There was but one name on Lord MacCragge’s lips. That of Captain Balroth, Sixth Company Captain.

 

Balroth was a renowned hero of the Ultramarines, having fought in countless wars against the Tyranids and Chaos Raiders. He was an inspirational man, much loved by his troops and the citizens of Ultramar. Born on the planet Quintarn, he was a student of the military school on that world from birth. It didn’t take long for him to come to the attention of the Ultramarines. He joined the Eighth Company from the Scouts, and it wasn’t long before he was promoted to Sergeant, and then Veteran Sergeant. After serving in the 1st Company as a member of a Veteran squad, and later as a Terminator Sergeant, his name was the first on many peoples’ lips when the former 6th Company Captain died in battle with the Ork hordes of Charadon. He went on to lead his company to many glorious victories, and came to be respected as much for his skills in training and mentoring his troops as his skills in battle.

 

And so it was that Balroth became the first Chapter Master of the Rune Blades chapter. He took with him from MacCragge, one Space Marine of note to be his Chief Librarian, as well as a supply of weapons from the Chapter’s armoury. In addition, he was permitted a limited number of Tactical Dreadnaught battlesuits, and two Dreadnaughts, one of which was Brother Caradon, an ancient Venerable Dreadnaught, who had been serving the Ultramarines for over five millennia.

++STATUS: Destroyed.

 

Amongst the lesser known atrocities of the infamous 13th Black Crusade was the conquest of the Hellecian sub-sector by the forces of Lorgar. Once a bastion of Imperial faith, the Hellecian sub-sector was subverted by Word Bearer Dark Apostle Veritas.

 

As Abaddon launched his 13th Crusade, rebellions flared on nearly every world of the system. On the cardinal world of Hellecia III itself, Cardinal Velof Dmatris declared loyalty to the Dark Powers while detonating melta-charges placed on the 300 metre tall statue of the Emperor that stood in the middle of the Cathedral of the Saviour Righteous.

 

With Imperial forces stretched trying to contain the forces of Abaddon at Cadia and elsewhere and with its entire power structure corrupted by centuries of Chaos influence, the Hellecian sub-sector fell with relative ease.

 

The only major force to respond was a potent one - the entire Impaler Chapter of the Adeptus Astartes responded with great speed. The Impalers planned to reclaim Hellecia III in a massive drop pod assault. They hoped to wipe out Veritas and his Word Bearers thereby decapitating the Chaos forces. However the plan had been foreseen by Veritas and his Chaos seers. The Impalers drop podded into a giant trap and were wiped out within the course of a month of heavy fighting though some elements survived for several months before being wiped out by Word Bearer strike forces.

 

Much of the detail surrounding the insurrection and destruction of the Impaler chapter is not known to Imperium. The entire sub-sector has been declared Perdita by Imperial authorities pending the availability of enough resources to launch a Crusade to recapture the sub-sector. But with war raging throughout the Imperium this could take a considerable amount of time.

The sons of Ira

 

Loyal chapter part of the 18th founding Imperial fists

 

+++Home Planet+++

Location: Segmentum Obscurous

Name: Ira

Description:

Ira was a feudal world until imperial discovery during the great crusade, it was inhabited by a population of fierce warriors who, despite there lack of technology were able to hold of an Ork invasion, granted the Orks had very few vehicles. During the 18 founding Ira was chosen as a host for a new chapter, the Sons of Ira. The Sons of Ira value strength above all, relying on assault squads backed by devastator squads, they have almost a irrational hate of Orks, as they plagued the homeworld.
