Space Truckin Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I just stumbled upon this chapter and didn't find much info on them in Lexicanum & Wiki40k. Allegedly they are of Raven Guard geneseed however their insignia looks very Ravenwing-ish. Could they possibly be a DA descendant chapter that adheres to Codex Astartes? Anyone with the IA books know if there is significant backstory on these guys? Just curious. It would be easy to get a bunch of Ravenwing Shoulder pads and trim away the sword bit. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/4/4f/DarkEaglespad.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Unless they are using a brand new transfer sheet I haven't seen, that icon is actually just off the standard Space Marine Decal transfer sheet you get in any Tactical Squad. I got one in the brand new Tact squad I got about 5 months ago and it has that icon on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoic Raptor Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 It's just a heraldic wing. I don't think it's an emblem exclusive to the Dark Angels, any more so than a sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJedi Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I've seen that symbol as far back as Epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabbadoo Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 It is just an old campaign badge somebody has retasked to be their Chapter symbol (hey, having a decal is convenient! :D). See here for more campaign badges : http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Honour_Badges_%28Space_Marines%29 (14th image down on the right). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
