Lord_Urbonov Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 I was curious about something, and wanted to invoke the combined knowledge of the forum for more info. What chapters/warbands/regiments/chaos cults/etc, have been created by authors for their books? And I don't mean incredible local organizations (some very specific planet-based cults for instance), I mean like the Iron Snakes (if not created by, but certainly explored by Dan Abnett). The only other one I can think of is the Blood Gorgons chaos space marines, who, if I'm not mistaken, appear in two books. Dan Abnett also created numerous Imp Guard regiments in the Gaunts ghost's series, but there are soo many imp gaurd regiments... Does anyone know of any others? Is there a craftworld that features in a few books that isn't one of the codex regulars? A loyalists chapter that an author graced with a fleshed out back story? Inquiring minds gotta know. p.s., Blood Ravens are disqualified for being created by a studio in a different medium lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/293460-author-created-organizations/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotsmasha Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 The Legion of the Canned book, iirc, The Excoriators , a 2nd Founding chapter of The Imperial Fists did exist prior to the book.

CommodusXIII Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 There is an Inquisitorial Sect created in a 40k novel that deals with plague, though I can't recall the book or the author sorry! Are you referring to the Ordo Sepulturum? That was also referenced in The Thorian Sourcebook for Inquisitor and Codex: Eye of Terror for WH40K (3rd Edition). I don't know if it was necessarily author-derived before that.
