The Shadow Legion - Outline/W.I.P/not IA ready...

[Tolek]

Battle-Brothers,

 

I have discarded Eternal Stalkers for what I believe a better idea. I have been a part of a gaming group for over the last several years, since 2001, and I want to create a 40k Space Marine Chapter based off of the group. That is the inspiration for this outline and here is what I have so far, a very simple outline, and utilizing Octavulg’s example. All feedback and CC is welcome, but please be constructive and helpful.

 

Chapter Name

- Shadow Legion

 

Origins

- 21st Cursed Founding

 

History

- A work in progress, general idea is to minimize and summarize the history possibly only noting the major engagements, battles and conflicts.

 

Home World

- No home world, fleet based chapter

 

Beliefs

- Stronger is better

- Ritualistic challenges/competitions/duels…

- Emperor is not a God, but Creator/Father

- More/clarify as development takes place

 

Combat Doctrine

- Ambushes

- Night Operations

- Mixed Warfare ranged and close combat, operation dictates

 

Organisation

- Codex Adherent

- The 1st Company, the “Death Dealer’s”, are veterans and Legionnaires who have an overwhelming combat awareness and prowess. Death Dealer’s wear a skull helmet and remain on a separate battle barge, the “Battlemaster” in order to deploy where needed

- Jester – Librarians

Legionnaire – Space Marine

Initiate - Recruit

 

Gene-seed

- Unknown, but show enhanced durability, strength and toughness compared to other space marines

 

Battle-cry

“War is the Answer” – still a work in progress, but I do like it.

 

Color Scheme

- Would like to incorporate Red/Black/Gold/Silver/White, will make a few versions

 

Just a work in progress, but I feel very good and positive about this one.
