Fluffier space marine chapter allies of blood angels

In terms of ties, all marine chapters are the same, all space marines from other chapters are the BA's cousins, after all.

 

Sallies would have a healthy respect for the BA after Dante honoured them at Armageddon2.

A neat idea would be a second founding chapter helping the blood anngels. It's written in lore that all blood angel successors have deeps ties due to the thirst and shared visions of sanguinius, and to attack one is to attack them all.

Given that every marine chapter would be expected to recognise (and participate) in the Sanguinala (an Imperium-wide observance/day of remembrance by ALL adeptus - astartes, ministorum, munitorum, arbites, etc), I'd imagine that any marine chapter would relish the chance to fight alongside the Blood Angels. Its not often you get to work with the sons of the Primarch who fought Horus in all his dark power, giving his last for the chance to weaken Horus' defences. Even marines want to fight alongside legends made flesh, armour that stood at the Ultimate Gate and chainswords that were baptised in blood in the corridors of the Emperors Palace.

The Blood Angels are uncommon among marine chapters in that they view the whole of the Imperium as their responsibility, having fought over so much of it during the Crusade and the Heresy, rather than any particular area that they guard/defend. There will be stories in every segmentum battlefleet of the time great slab-sided crimson ships arrived to throw back the darkness, there are whole wings of the fortress monastery devoted to battle honours won on worlds far from Baal and honour debts owed or fulfilled amongst their brother chapters.

Apart from the Flesh Tearers that is........ whistling.gif

We get along with Necrons, I can't see how we couldn't ally inseperably with any first founding chapter, including chaos turned ones.

 

I'd go for Dark Angels though.  Angels of Death and all that stuff.  Besides, they are kind of chaos turned.
