Conrfyrdman Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Ok so ive decided to build my first marine chapter. A DiY chapter. Ive got a concept and everything but I cant decide between these two names. A little bit about the chapter. They venerate the emperor as divine, and are fanatically devoted. They chant battle prayers during combat, always lead by a chaplain. Combat specialty is drop pod assaults, bursting from their pods with the words of the emperors vengeance. Crusading chapter, forever hunting heretics. These are the names i am leaning towards. Thinking probably dorn for geneseed. Angels Virtuous or Knights of Vigilance Which do you guys like?

Firepower Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Well...hm. It's hard to really decide if one is better than the other, seeing as there's no information on the Chapter itself. It helps in many ways if the name actually fits the theme. In a vacuum, neither one really pops out at me.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I prefer the name "Knights of Vigilance." Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271133-help-with-my-chapter/#findComment-3302721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Kovasir Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 A few questions... Have you figured out what Gene-seed you were planning on going with? If BA I would suggest Angels Virtous or if you're going for a theme such as High Moral Standards. However, if you're going to have a more Knights or medieval theme I would suggest going for Knights of Vigilance. In regards to personal preference: I like Angels Virtuous.

Ecritter Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 A chapter's name is made long before it develops a theme (unless you're GW of course). So any name will work.

Astral Pathfinder Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I don't wanna mess up but what about Paladins ? It's half way between knight and saint-guy. It carries the idea of fighting men (which Angels does not always, unless you put blood or dark in front of it) and also the idea of a blessed knight. To put it in a boltshell : angels are mythological and unmaterial, but fearsome and undying, knights are brutal and somehow "dirty", but not the finest person you might come across. Paladin, i.m.o, conveys both qualities of angels and knights.

Conrfyrdman Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 So how about the Paladins Pious? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/271133-help-with-my-chapter/#findComment-3303354 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astral Pathfinder Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Paladins of Vigilance ? A paladin is supposed to be pious, at the very beginning of that job.

Firepower Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 So how about the Paladins Pious? I vote for the Paladins of Pie. Death to the traitorous Cobblers!!! :teehee: In the same vein; Knights of the Cloth Temple Wards Faithful Wardens or Wardens of the Faith Imperial Castellans Frater Vigil Ordo Vigil That's all I got for the moment. Tried to mix terms of knighthood, faith, and guard/watchmen.
