Red Wolves: A New Companion Project

Vash113 · May 30, 2015

So the upcoming release of the new upgrade sprue and the fully ten sculpted Blackmane Great Company shoulder pads got me to thinking. The Red Wolves, a chapter we've seen around for a while and who possess the same symbol as the Blackmane, would be a great variant list to build and these new shoulder pads would make painting the chapter symbol nice and easy. Thus, a new project idea is born. For those who don't know here's the info on the Red Wolves:

http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Red_Wolves

Not a lot there, apart from clearly being a more codex adherent chapter in their markings pretty much everything else is left unknown. While I am certainly not suggesting trying to make these guys a Space Wolves successor, a spiritual successor is another matter. In short I am thinking of creating some DIY background for this chapter, making them Blood Angels successors from the 21st or Cursed Founding whose gene-seed origins and purity are somewhat suspect. I want to make them similar to the Space Wolves in the Space Viking aspect but also somewhat different. To do that I'm thinking of using as the core of my list the Siege Assault Vanguard list. In particular this gives me access to Tactical Squads equipped with Siege Mantlets, as a cheap alternative to Forge World's very expensive shields I'm thinking of using these:

Also here's lists to the Siege Assault Vanguard rules and the Forge World Chapter Tactics rules.

www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/S/Siege_Assault_Van.pdf

www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/B/FWchaptertactics-v2.pdf

Now combine the Siege Assault Vanguard list with the Carcharadons Chapter Tactics and I can have Tactical Squads outfitted with Siege Mantlets, Bolt Pistols, Bolters, and close combat weapons. Essentially Grey Hunters with shields. Why shields?

Well to fit more with the core fighting style of norse raiders, the shield-wall. Even in the Space Wolf books terms like shield-wall and shield-brother are used but the majority of wolves cannot take shields of any kind. With the aforementioned setup Tactical Squads become both solid in close combat and highly durable to shooting, since the Siege Mantlets provide a re-roll of armor saves against shooting attacks. This isn't amazing at times since obviously low-ap blast weapons make a mockery of this protection but having faced mantlet squads a number of times they can be irritatingly durable. To transport these guys I can use the Spartan Assault Tank, with a 20 model capacity it can transport the bulky Tactical Squads.

Aesthetically I think maintain mostly standard codex markings, minus company markings since nothing of the sort appears visible in the images of the chapter. Combine a mixture of standard space marine bits with some space wolf kits to make a sort of moderate median between full blown SW models and vanilla marines.

Now why post this here and not in the IA board? Well because I intend to use these guys alongside my Space Wolves as allies and as a loaner army in 2v2 games. Thematically and fluff I want to draw heavily on the Space Wolves. Most importantly, I'm hoping other members of the Fang, who may have wanted to do alternate color schemes or background or just looking for something a little different, might like the idea and take inspiration. I hope that's alright and this remains in the Fang!

So, that said, what do you guys think?

P.S. I'll be writing up some background and further details in the next few days and will post those as well, start to pull this concept together a little more coherently.

Hi, nice idea

I found this post :http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/273456-red-wolves/ were it says the company number is written on one of the left knee.

Later on they also mention that the Lexicanum says they are Iron Hands successors which I also had the impression, but since the thread also questions the source for that, and that it doesn't seem to be on lexicanum anymore, than take that with a pinch of salt.

Can't find any more info, so good look ^^

Vash113 · June 9, 2015

Yea the company indicator comes from their listing in Insignium Astartes, as for the Iron Hands successor I haven't found any source for that but will keep checking. This is what I've worked up so far:

Index Astartes: The Red Wolves

+++Founding: 991.M35, 21^st Founding (Unconfirmed)+++

+++Gene-Seed: Blood Angels (Unconfirmed)+++

+++Primogenitor: Unknown+++

+++Homeworld: Bloodfall, Segmentum Solar+++

“To the last bolt, to the last blade, to the last breath!”

-Common chapter battle-cry.

History:

The history of the Red Wolves is largely unknown outside the chapter, a mystery to friend and foe alike, and this is just as the Red Wolves like it. It is believed by some chroniclers of the Ordo Astartes of the Inquisition that the Red Wolves were founded during the 21^st Founding in 991.M35, also known as the Cursed Founding. The powers behind the founding are as dangerous as they are mysterious and those who look too closely into the 21^st Founding typically end up dead or disappeared. What was done during the founding remains a mystery best left forgotten, but those who do dare to study the 21^st Founding postulate that heretical gene-science was utilized to hybridize or attempt to purify gene-seed from the less stable Primarch sources. The Black Dragons, speculatively descended from the gene-seed of Vulkan, commonly possess aberrant bone growths. The Lamenters, a Blood Angel successor, were initially believed to have been cured of the Black Rage and Red Thirst, the twin curses of Sanguinius' sons. That belief has been shattered, even so the Lamenters still possess greater control of their twin curses than any of the other Sons of Sanguinius. Other chapters like the Sons of Antaeus and Minotaurs are of even less certain origin but tactical and doctrinal analysis would suggest these chapters possibly descend from Roboute Guilliman and Rogal Dorn respectively, though no proof of such lineage can be found. Still other chapters of the founding, the Flame Falcons, Fire Hawks and Blood Gorgons, have all been lost to tragedy or heresy.

Given the tainted nature of such a brotherhood of chapters it is little surprise that the Red Wolves would wish to keep the details of their founding and gene-seed source a closely guarded secret. Yet speculation remains, particularly in the shadowed halls of Inquisition fortresses. The red armor and some of the chapter's battle rituals suggest Sanguinius as the source of the chapter's gene-seed, however some have staked their reputations on the claim that the chapter is in fact descended from Leman Russ. The few who have made such claims have universally become the laughing stock of their peers, shamed and ridiculed for making such a wild and unsupported assertation, yet theory has slowly gained support among some circles, particularly given the greater details being uncovered on the chapter's iconography, battle-doctrines and culture. The possibility of a Space Wolves successor, even one hailing from the cursed founding, is enough to chill the blood of even the most venerable Inquisitor. The disastrous fallout of the 1^st War for Armageddon, and the failed invasion of Cardinal Bucharis against the Space Wolves have shown beyond shadow of doubt the tenacity and independance of the Sons of Russ as well as their willingness to challenge the power and authority of the Imperium's highest agents. Should the numbers of Russ' stock ever rise none know what impact it could have on the balance of power in the Imperium. The Adeptus Administratum, the Ecclessiarchy, and the Inquisition all have enough cause to fear the merest hint of such a possibility becoming reality that should even the slightest proof be gathered the fate of the Red Wolves would surely be sealed. Unsurprisingly the Red Wolves deny any assossiation with the Space Wolves or any descent from the gene-stock of Leman Russ, citing the failure and dispanding of the Wolf Brothers as obvious proof that no such succession could be possible. Furthermore the chapter has always supplied their gene-seed tithe to the Adeptus Mechanicus in full and on time, never missing a single submission nor has the chapter ever provided less than required. The tithed gene-seed has always proven to be of utmost purity but of obscure origins, attempts to identify Primogenitor gene-markers has routinely failed. Occasionally a few genetic markers tied to the line of Sanguinius have been identified but only in one or two samples in a tithe, not enough to provide definitive proof. While most in the Ordo Astartes and the Adeptus Mechanicus hold these results as indicative of the veracity of the Red Wolves claims there continue to be a small number of dissenting voices who find the small number of confirmed results suspicious and possibly indicative of gene-seed stolen and supplied as a diversion. These detractors are largely considered paranoid, yet the suspicious remain and the gene-marker tests are inevitably tried again, and again, and again, the answers never quite enough to satisfy the doubters.

Aside from the machinations of the Imperium's elite few in the Imperium have either seen or heard of the Red Wolves, in fact their history and battle-honors prove incredibly difficult to find, even for the most learned of Imperial scholars. Only two battle-honors appear in common Imperial chronicles, the Shadeblight Denial, and the Fourth Quadrant Rebellion. Both battles were fought between 750 and 780.M41. What battles the chapter fought before, or since, are unknown outside the halls of Bloodfall, the chapter homeworld, at least, until now. With the onset of the 3^rd War for Armageddon and the 13^th Black Crusade, and countless other battlefields spreading like wildfire across the Imperium in the last years of the forty first millennium every chapter of Space Marines is swiftly becoming fully deployed trying to put out the fires and hold the Imperium together. The Red Wolves are no different and have been seen appearing across dozens of battlefields in detachments ranging from a few squads to entire companies, even chapter level deployments have been witnessed, bringing battle against nearly every foe who dares threaten the realms of man in these trying times. Despite the countless demands of late a few within the Imperium have taken the opportunity to learn more about the Red Wolves in the last few months than in all the previous centuries combined.

Organization:

Though the Red Wolves appear to be nearly as feral and savage as the Space Wolves and White Scars are believed to be, in reality the chapter adheres fairly closely to the dictates of the Codex Astartes. Perhaps this has as much to do with the constant scrutiny the chapter faces from other Imperial agencies. Even so the chapter maintaines the standard arrangement of ten companies, the first being the veteran company, the second through fifth organized as battle companies, the sixth and seven as tactical reserve, the eighth as the assault reserve, the ninth as the devastator reserve, and the tenth as the scout company. Each company stands at a hundred battle-brothers when at full-strength organized into the standard array of Tactical, Assault and Devastator squads in the standard numbers. Squad markings and identifications remain entirely within the outlined standards of the codex. However the Red Wolves do diverge from the standard in a few notable ways, though even these variations stand within the allowances of the codex. The first difference is that every tactical marine in the chapter bears a greater number of weapons than most chapters provide to a single line-brother. Each battle-brother is issued a bolter, bolt pistol, chainsword or chainaxe, a combat blade, and a siege mantlet or boarding shield. Each marine is expected to maintain these weapons and have them ever at the ready. Many Red Wolves choose to leave behind their chain weapons in favor of their combat blade as their sole melee weapon, however it is not unusual for battle-brothers to take to the field bearing their entire panoply of war, dropping individual items should they prove encumbering to retrieve them later. This alternate equipment loadout is a key to the central combat doctrine of the Red Wolves, the shield-wall.

The remaining organizational divergences are also tied to the shield-wall. The first company of the Red Wolves fields entirely as Terminators, the vast majority of these outfitted as Assault Terminators armed almost exclusively with Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields. Because of this the exact numbers of the first company are tied to the number of available suits of functional Tactical Dreadnought Armor in the chapter armory. At times this number has fallen as low as thirty, and at others has stood as high as a hundred and twenty. The Red Wolves are meticulous in the maintanence and repair of the chapter Terminator suits and will sacrifice much to secure fallen suits or to acquire new ones, be they taken from ancient and forgotten caches, stripped from fallen enemies, or bargained for with fellow Imperial agencies. The final point of major organizational difference between the Red Wolves and most codex adherent chapters is the chapter armory. Though the Red Wovles armory contains all the standard warmachines known to the Adeptus Astartes the chapter relies much more heavily on Land Raiders of all types than the more ubiquitous Rhino chasis vehicles. Predators, Vindicators and Whirlwinds are all deployed fairly regularly but the majority of chapter mechanized assaults are undertaken from the armored holds of Land Raiders, the greater transport space critical to the transportation of squads outfitted with siege mantlets. Of particular note is the large number of Spartan Assault Tanks in the chapter armory. At least nine have been identified by individual markings on the battlefield. Though once fielded in large numbers by the Space Marine Legions of old few chapters possess even a handful of these ancient machines. To possess such a large number is quite the feat for a chapter of the Red Wolves age. A few witness acounts even claim to have seen super heavy transports in the colors of the Red Wolves taking to the field, machines such as the Stormlord, Banehammer and Doomhammer. The veracity of these claims has yet to be proven but should they be accurate they would suggest the Red Wolves armory is willing to bend the rules of the codex to provide the chapter with heavy assault capable battle tanks.

Unlike the Blood Angels, Space Wolves and many other venerable chapters the Red Wolves maintain a fairly standard array of chapter specialists. Apothecaries, Chaplains, Librarians and Techmarines all serve in codex outlined roles and in fairly standard roles, equipment, doctrines and numbers. A few cultural influences have made their way into the Red Wolves doctrines. The chapter Chaplains are informally known as the dark watchers, grim wardens who stand distant from their battle-brothers, watching the feats of heroics or foolishness on the battlefield from a lofty vantage. This enigmatic aura surrounding the chapter chaplains originates with the recruitment process of the Red Wolves where the chapter's Chaplains will stalk the battlefields of the warring tribes of Bloodfall, ever vigilant for promising youths. If a promising young warrior is spotted the chaplain will descend, sometimes at the height of the fighting, to walk amongst the combatants and quietly mark out an individual or small group of individuals. The chosen men will then follow the chaplain into the hills, never to be seen or heard from again. Even once an aspirant has risen to the rank of full shield-brother the chaplains remain a distant and shadowed brotherhood, ever standing apart from their brethren, grim and brooding of aspect. Far from the fiery orators and inspiring figures of other chapters the chaplains of the Red Wolves are grim slayers who lead through example. It is relatively rare for a Red Wolves chaplain to join the front-lines of battle, instead the chaplains stand as distant observers, providing tactical advice to field commanders, words of wisdom, caution and counsel. If need be a chaplain will rally the rear-guard and lead a counter-charge should the shield-wall begin to fail, the enemy force a breach, or a new threat arise. The chapter Apothecaries and Techmarines are known as flesh weavers and iron smiths respectively, titles derived from the language and culture of Bloodfall but used only as honorary signifiers.

The strangest and strongest doctrinal influences from the culture of Bloodfall to have found their way into the chapter specialists is seen amongst the chapter Librarians. A very closed and isolated brotherhood within the ranks of the chapter the Librarians of the Red Wolves are cloaked in ritual, dogma, shadows and secrets. While ostensibly organized and trained to the exact standards outlined in the codex astartes the Red Wolves Librarius maintains a number of specializations, methods, ranks and honors unique to the chapter and derived from the shamanistic culture of Bloodfall. The psychic disciplines of the Red Wolves are identified by shamanistic totem powers, earth, wind, water and fire being the most common and well known disciplines. Yet others, stranger disciplines can be found within the chapter, disciplines of death, vision, fortune, stars, sun, iron and many others. The exact nature of each discipline, the psychic abilities that constitute the disciplines, the precise number of disciplines, and even which disciplines are known to each Librarian are all closely guarded secrets of the Red Wolves Librarius. Collectively the Red Wolves Librarians are known as the Circle, traditional ranks of Lexicanium, Codicier, Epistolary and Chief Librarian are all used however decisions affecting the Librarius and the chapter at large are decided by consensus among the entire Circle. Though strange the practices of the Red Wolves Librarius still fall well within acceptable variance and doctrines for a chapter Librarius as outlined by the codex.

Combat Doctrine:

Virtually every combat doctrine of the Red Wolves revolves around the Shield-Wall, a tactic central to the fighting styles of the native tribes of Bloodfall. Composed of overlapping shields formed into both simple and complex formations the shield-wall is capable of providing a mobile fortress from which the Red Wolves can fight, either on the defense or the offense. Vast ammounts of firepower and overwhelming assaults can break against the shield-wall without breaking it. Curiously the shield-wall is one of the oldest and most effective battle-tactics in the history of mankind and has even been a core doctrine of the Space Marine Chapters from the time of the Legions of old. Alexis Polux, the first Chapter Master of the Crimson Fists, was renowned for his use of shield-wall tactics in boarding assaults and famously used those self-same tactics to great effect during the Battle of Phall. Despite this history few chapters maintain regular use of siege mantlets or boarding shields, only a select few chapters such as the Iron Snakes regularly use shield tactics as part of their standard combat doctrines. The Badab War was one of the few events in recent Imperial history where boarding shields were used in any significant numbers in assault formations known as Siege Assault Vanguard. Even then these tactics were used almost exclusively by a handful of the chapters involved in the conflict such as the Minotaurs. For the Red Wolves however the shield-wall is the core battle doctrine of the chapter, every battle-strategy and combat-drill is built upon this central tactic.

They are an option listed under the Tactical Squad entry.

Ulrik_Ironfist · June 9, 2015

I've been toying with using the Carcharadons Chapter tactics with my regular space wolves, and this Siege assault vanguard list is just that much cooler.

DaveyBoy74 · June 10, 2015

@ Ulrik_Ironfist, I agree with you the Siege assault vanguard list, is very interesting, especially if I use Boarding Shields on a squad of Blood Claws, I take it Space Wolves have access to Boarding Shields ?, I'm not bothered with the fancy weapons the vanilla Space Marines use, give my SW's their Melta Guns and an axe or three and they are Happy little campers in assaults.

Unfortunately no, it is only an upgrade available to Tactical Squads in the Siege Assault Vanguard list using the core Space Marine book. Space Wolves, Blood Angels and Dark Angels all lack the ability to take Siege Mantlets. Hence the siege assault list with the Carcharadons chapter tactics.

@ Vash113, Thanks for the clarification so it looks like I might be going with your idea for a unit using 'Caracharadons' chapter tatics!, as I really want to model some Blood Claws with Assault Shileds.

Dave.

Np, I like the idea as well, particularly given the repeated references to shield wall tactics in the Space Wolves books. If you want to go for it on the tabletop I'd suggest using a Caestus Assault Ram as a potential delivery method. The Mantlets make the squad bulky meaning Rhinos and most Raiders won't work for transporting them. However the assault ram ignores the bulky rule meaning a single ram can transport an entire squad of 10 Marines. Plus it's a solid and effective gunship in its own right.

Now I've continued my work on my custom Red Wolves background and I'll be pasting it below.

I know most of you guys wont want to read a wall of text so I'll summarize my (heretical) ideas here. Quite simply I am making the Red Wolves a Space Wolves successor, as much as that thought makes me cringe and I am normally very resistant to attempts to do such a thing I also must admit the challenge is interesting. Essentially I've heavily drawn from the Cursed Founding Index Astartes fluff and its references to Incunabla and the secret gene-labs and research done there to create the 21st Cursed Founding. My idea is that one of the chapters created during that founding were the Red Wolves and that they were created using the gene-seed of Leman Russ and stabilized largely through the use of High Wolf Priest Thar Wyrmblade's work prior to the First Battle of the Fang. Of course in the official fluff Wyrmblade's work was destroyed but my idea is that he somehow had a backup plan that shared backups of his data with an outside agency and three thousand years later when the 21st Founding was being undertaken an unknown High Lord provided the data to Incunabla. Alone Wyrmblade never finished his work and in my writing alone Incunabla couldn't fix Russ' seed either but combining the work of the two resulted in the Red Wolves, a stable successor chapter. Even so the political climate of the Imperium and the many failures of the Cursed Founding, along with the heretical nature of that work, has resulted in the Red Wolves hiding their origins as best they can and any Inquisitors or High Lords that still know of what happened are keeping silent as well.

Of course nothing in 40k is ever laid out that plainly or obviously so in the below fluff I have redacted a number of important details and kept specifications few and far between, referring only to the Primarchs as numbered gene-sources and largely cutting out Wyrmblade's name and leaving little explanation behind it all. Hopefully the results of this work are not so explicit or blatant and have just enough subtlety and mystery to fit with the 40k mythos and come off as believable and plausible within the 40k canon despite the highly unorthodox and divergent idea at its core.

So... whatcha guys think? Or should I start a new thread that literally says "Space Wolf Successors!!!!" or something like that and see what happens?

Perhaps this has as much to do with the constant scrutiny the chapter faces from other Imperial agencies. Even so the chapter maintaines the standard arrangement of ten companies, the first being the veteran company, the second through fifth organized as battle companies, the sixth and seven as tactical reserve, the eighth as the assault reserve, the ninth as the devastator reserve, and the tenth as the scout company. Each company stands at a hundred battle-brothers when at full-strength organized into the standard array of Tactical, Assault and Devastator squads in the standard numbers. Squad markings and identifications remain entirely within the outlined standards of the codex. However the Red Wolves do diverge from the standard in a few notable ways, though even these variations stand within the allowances of the codex. The first difference is that every tactical marine in the chapter bears a greater number of weapons than most chapters provide to a single line-brother. Each battle-brother is issued a bolter, bolt pistol, chainsword or chainaxe, a combat blade, and a siege mantlet or boarding shield.

Because of this the exact numbers of the first company are tied to the number of available suits of functional Tactical Dreadnought Armor in the chapter armory. At times this number has fallen as low as thirty, and at others has stood as high as a hundred and twenty. The Red Wolves are meticulous in the maintanence and repair of the chapter Terminator suits and will sacrifice much to secure fallen suits or to acquire new ones, be they taken from ancient and forgotten caches, stripped from fallen enemies, or bargained for with fellow Imperial agencies. The final point of major organizational difference between the Red Wolves and most codex adherent chapters is the chapter armory. Though the Red Wovles armory contains all the standard warmachines known to the Adeptus Astartes the chapter relies much more heavily on Land Raiders of all types than the more ubiquitous Rhino chasis vehicles. Predators, Vindicators and Whirlwinds are all deployed fairly regularly but the majority of chapter mechanized assaults are undertaken from the armored holds of Land Raiders, the greater transport space critical to the transportation of squads outfitted with siege mantlets. Of particular note is the large number of Spartan Assault Tanks in the chapter armory. At least nine have been identified by individual markings on the battlefield. Though once fielded in large numbers by the Space Marine Legions of old few chapters possess even a handful of these ancient machines. To possess such a large number is quite the feat for a chapter of the Red Wolves age. A few witness acounts even claim to have seen super heavy transports in the colors of the Red Wolves taking to the field, machines such as the Stormlord, Banehammer and Doomhammer. The veracity of these claims has yet to be proven but should they be accurate they would suggest the Red Wolves armory is willing to bend the rules of the codex to provide the chapter with heavy assault capable battle tanks.

Unlike the Blood Angels, Space Wolves and many other venerable chapters the Red Wolves maintain a fairly standard array of chapter specialists. Apothecaries, Chaplains, Librarians and Techmarines all serve in codex outlined roles and in fairly standard roles, equipment, doctrines and numbers. A few cultural influences have made their way into the Red Wolves doctrines. The chapter Chaplains are informally known as the dark watchers, grim wardens who stand distant from their battle-brothers, watching the feats of heroics or foolishness on the battlefield from a lofty vantage. This enigmatic aura surrounding the chapter chaplains originates with the recruitment process of the Red Wolves where the chapter's Chaplains will stalk the battlefields of the warring tribes of Bloodfall, ever vigilant for promising youths. If a promising young warrior is spotted the chaplain will descend, sometimes at the height of the fighting, to walk amongst the combatants and quietly mark out an individual or small group of individuals. The chosen men will then follow the chaplain into the hills, never to be seen or heard from again. Even once an aspirant has risen to the rank of full shield-brother the chaplains remain a distant and shadowed brotherhood, ever standing apart from their brethren, grim and brooding of aspect. Far from the fiery orators and inspiring figures of other chapters the chaplains of the Red Wolves are grim slayers who lead through example. It is relatively rare for a Red Wolves chaplain to join the front-lines of battle, instead the chaplains stand as distant observers, providing tactical advice to field commanders, words of wisdom, caution and counsel. If need be a chaplain will rally the rear-guard and lead a counter-charge should the shield-wall begin to fail, the enemy force a breach, or a new threat arise. The chapter Apothecaries and Techmarines are known as flesh weavers and iron smiths respectively, titles derived from the language and culture of Bloodfall but used only as honorary signifiers.

The strangest and strongest doctrinal influences from the culture of Bloodfall to have found their way into the chapter specialists is seen amongst the chapter Librarians. A very closed and isolated brotherhood within the ranks of the chapter the Librarians of the Red Wolves are cloaked in ritual, dogma, shadows and secrets. While ostensibly organized and trained to the exact standards outlined in the codex astartes the Red Wolves Librarius maintains a number of specializations, methods, ranks and honors unique to the chapter and derived from the shamanistic culture of Bloodfall. The psychic disciplines of the Red Wolves are identified by shamanistic totem powers, earth, wind, water and fire being the most common and well known disciplines. Yet others, stranger disciplines can be found within the chapter, disciplines of death, vision, fortune, stars, sun, iron and many others. The exact nature of each discipline, the psychic abilities that constitute the disciplines, the precise number of disciplines, and even which disciplines are known to each Librarian are all closely guarded secrets of the Red Wolves Librarius. Collectively the Red Wolves Librarians are known as the Circle, traditional ranks of Lexicanium, Codicier, Epistolary and Chief Librarian are all used however decisions affecting the Librarius and the chapter at large are decided by consensus among the entire Circle. Though strange the practices of the Red Wolves Librarius still fall well within acceptable variance and doctrines for a chapter Librarius as outlined by the codex.

Combat Doctrine:

Virtually every combat doctrine of the Red Wolves revolves around the Shield-Wall, a tactic central to the fighting styles of the native tribes of Bloodfall. Composed of overlapping shields formed into both simple and complex formations the shield-wall is capable of providing a mobile fortress from which the Red Wolves can fight, either on the defense or the offense. Vast ammounts of firepower and overwhelming assaults can break against the shield-wall without breaking it. Curiously the shield-wall is one of the oldest and most effective battle-tactics in the history of mankind and has even been a core doctrine of the Space Marine Chapters from the time of the Legions of old. Alexis Polux, the first Chapter Master of the Crimson Fists, was renowned for his use of shield-wall tactics in boarding assaults and famously used those self-same tactics to great effect during the Battle of Phall. Despite this history few chapters maintain regular use of siege mantlets or boarding shields, only a select few chapters such as the Iron Snakes regularly use shield tactics as part of their standard combat doctrines. The Badab War was one of the few events in recent Imperial history where boarding shields were used in any significant numbers in assault formations known as Siege Assault Vanguard. Even then these tactics were used almost exclusively by a handful of the chapters involved in the conflict such as the Minotaurs. For the Red Wolves however the shield-wall is the core battle doctrine of the chapter, every battle-strategy and combat-drill is built upon this central tactic.

Beliefs:

Like many chapters of the Adeptus Astartes the Red Wolves do not follow the Imperial Creed and do not worship the Emperor as a god. Instead the chapter cult holds the Emperor as the greatest hero, champion and leader of mankind. The nine loyal Primarchs are held as the Emperor's greatest generals and the traitor Primarchs are held as the greatest villains in human history. A statue of the Emperor depicted as a warrior king armored in gold and bearing a flaming sword and taloned fist standing thirty feet tall can be found in the great Reclusium of the chapter fortress monastery. Around the Emperor are statues of the nine loyal Primarchs, each one shown at the height of their power, armed and armored for war. Outside of the great Reclusium images of the Primarchs and the Emperor are relatively rare, instead the chapter favors the construction of cairns and barrows throughout the fortress monastery and across the surface of Bloodfall, the greatest being the field of bones. A great battlefield to the north of the fortress monastery where the bodies of the chapter's slain are entombed in cairns and barrows and surrounded with the detritus of war. Chapter legend holds that the field of bones was the site of the chapter's final battle to reclaim Bloodfall for the Imperium though the date of this battle or even the nature of the foe are both unrecorded. Weapons, armor, wreckage from warmachines, skulls, bones and treasure are all heaped around these buirial mounds wherever they may be found. Though initially these offerings are left by the warriors closest to the fallen or were taken in the battle in which the warrior fell it is not uncommon for future warriors to leave offerings at various buirials. Sometimes this is done to show respect for a legendary hero of the chapter or the warrior whose gene-seed the young warrior bears while at other times offerings are left at buirials whose occupant has been forgotten or neglected simply as a show of respect for the warriors of the past. As a result each barrow and cairn collects a heap of battlefield detritus around it over time, the oldest offerings rusting and decaying even as new items are added. The sight of the field of bones is said to make aspirants to the chapter fall to their knees in awe, the field serving as a visual record of the thousands of Red Wolves who have fallen in service to the Emperor and the countless foes they have slain. The sheer scale of the monuments is difficult for young tribesmen to comprehend and serves to humble their arrogant and reckless youth with a stark reminder of mortality.

The chapter reverence for the heroic dead is matched by shamanistic worship of totem spirits and forces. In addition to the totems of the Librarius the battle-brothers of the chapter revere many totem animals, from bears, eagles and wolves to sharks, spiders, snakes and even dragons and sea serpents. Many of these traditions stem from the beliefs of the tribes native to Bloodfall who gather yearly at Yggdrasil, the world-tree. A spirit shrine in the most verdant southern regions of Bloodfall. The Adeptus Ecclesiarchy has long sought these traditions stamped out but has been repeatedly rebuffed by the Red Wolves who site the independance of chapter cults in defense of their traditions.

Gene-Seed:

Countless historians, biologis adepts and Inquisitors have speculated on the origins and nature of the Red Wolves gene-seed. What is known is that a handful of genetic markers tied to the Blood Angels lineage have been discovered but not enough to definitively prove the Red Wolves are a Blood Angels successor. To further complicate the matter the Red Wolves gene-seed appears to be extremely pure with all implants functioning within acceptable parameters and deviations and the chapter has yet to show any sign of either the Black Rage or the Red Thirst, the twin curses aflicting the Blood Angels. These traits alone are not enough to prove the Red Wolves are not Blood Angels successors given the recently uncovered nature of the Carmine Blades and Lamenters yet there is more evidence to suggest the chapter descends from an alternate gene-source than there is to suggest the Red Wolves are Sons of Sanguinius. Whether the Red Wolves know their true origins or not is unknown and the chapter is certainly little inclined to reveal the information even if they do.

Thought for the Day: Faith in the Emperor and his work is it's own reward.

Search teams investigating the battle sites on Incunabla have reported back with their findings. Recovered logs suggest that at some point one of the chief biologis adepts began to doubt our great work and sought to undermine it. Creating six accelerated subjects in his own hidden lab the adept unknowingly brought about his doom and the doom of the entire project. The third of his subjects appears to have manifested psychic powers and was able through as-yet undetermined means to contact the arch-traitor Fabius Bile who preceded to raid the gene-labs and take what he wished, including the mysterious subject three, loss of research materials and personnel is determined as total.

The loss of Incunabula leaves the project at a turning point. As you know a number of chapters created by the project have already been lost or manifested significant mutations and/or genetic degeneration. While these results have fallen well within predicted deviation and loss the failures have nevertheless already drawn too much unwanted attention to our great work. It is thus my recommendation that Project Homo Sapiens Novus be terminated and all records destroyed. Our back-up logs and research materials have already been transferred to the [fragment destroyed] site so that our work may continue at a future date.

As for the chapters already created the Flame Falcons were a setback but the Sons of Antaeus and Minotaurs show great promise and bear futher watching and direction and should serve us well in the centuries to come. However it is my belief that the greatest potential lies with the Red Wolves, the last of the chapters deployed from lab [fragment destroyed]. The manipulation of gene-source VI proved exceptionally difficult with most early attempts requiring total sanitation. Most of the adepts and overseers of the project believed progress could better be made by focusing on gene-source VII, gene-source IX and gene-source XVIII but time I believe has vindicated my decision to keep lab [fragment destroyed] focused exclusively on source VI. The resulting chapter appears to maintain a great deal of the ferocity and tenacity of the original gene-source with none of the impurities or genetic deviations and much broader genetic compatibility. I must admit that such success would not have been possible without Data-Source-Th...[fragment destroyed]... ade, I cannot imagine how you acquired that data, or from where but it proved invaluable. The resulting gene-batches proved extremely effective, particularly in regards of our goal to create minds particularly resistant to the influence of chaos. Though project Homo Sapiens Novus has ultimately failed in recreating the [fragment destroyed] I am confident that the Red Wolves gene-source will prove a powerful weapon against the great enemy.

@ Vash113, That certainly makes very interesting reading,

Could somebody clear up i point Please - I always thought (perhaps wrongly) that the Caestus Assault Ram was only useable in Space ?, can it be used in Atmosphere just like the Thunderhawk Gunship ?.

Thanks.

Dave.

it's very much useable in atmosphere-- tactics for their use usually boils to: ram into this building, fire into the enemy inside, unload angry space marine payload and fly around to pester the enemy. Vash, it's good fluff-- looking forward to seeing where these red wolves go.

DaveyBoy74 · June 13, 2015

Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding, that btw sound a great tactic that you described!.

Dave

Vash113 · June 15, 2015

Yea the assault ram is easily one of the toughest flyers currently in the game (outside of the super-heavies anyway) with a high front armor, front arc invulnerable save and immunity to the effects of melta. Plus it's carrying capacity and ability to ignore bulky makes it a great transport for Terminators, boarding troops and centurians.

I'm glad you like it so far. I'm making slow progress as I am trying to do the idea and the chapter due service while not going overboard, a delicate line to walk when creating DIY chapter fluff.

In any case I'd be happy for you to draw from this work for your own army and would even welcome any ideas, feedback or collaboration you, or anyone else, would like to share.

“To the last bolt, to the last blade, to the last breath!”

-Common chapter battle-cry.

History:

The history of the Red Wolves is largely unknown outside the chapter, a mystery to friend and foe alike, and this is just as the Red Wolves like it. It is believed by some chroniclers of the Ordo Astartes of the Inquisition that the Red Wolves were founded during the 21^st Founding in 991.M35, also known as the Cursed Founding. The powers behind the founding are as dangerous as they are mysterious and those who look too closely into the 21^st Founding typically end up dead or disappeared. What was done during the founding remains a mystery best left forgotten, but those who do dare to study the 21^st Founding postulate that heretical gene-science was utilized to hybridize or attempt to purify gene-seed from the less stable Primarch sources. The Black Dragons, speculatively descended from the gene-seed of Vulkan, commonly possess aberrant bone growths. The Lamenters, a Blood Angel successor, were initially believed to have been cured of the Black Rage and Red Thirst, the twin curses of Sanguinius' sons. That belief has been shattered, even so the Lamenters still possess greater control of their twin curses than any of the other Sons of Sanguinius. Other chapters like the Sons of Antaeus and Minotaurs are of even less certain origin but tactical and doctrinal analysis would suggest these chapters possibly descend from Roboute Guilliman and Rogal Dorn respectively, though no proof of such lineage can be found. Still other chapters of the founding, the Flame Falcons, Fire Hawks and Blood Gorgons, have all been lost to tragedy or heresy.

Given the tainted nature of such a brotherhood of chapters it is little surprise that the Red Wolves would wish to keep the details of their founding and gene-seed source a closely guarded secret. Yet speculation remains, particularly in the shadowed halls of Inquisition fortresses. The red armor and some of the chapter's battle rituals suggest Sanguinius as the source of the chapter's gene-seed, while other combat tactics and doctrines point to Imperial Fists, Iron Hands, or perhaps even Salamanders as the primogenitor gene-source, however some have staked their reputations on the claim that the chapter is in fact descended from Leman Russ and his Space Wolves. The few who have made such claims have universally become the laughing stock of their peers, shamed and ridiculed for making such a wild and unsupported assertation, yet theory has slowly gained support among some circles, particularly given the greater details being uncovered on the chapter's iconography, battle-doctrines and culture. The possibility of a Space Wolves successor, even one hailing from the cursed founding, is enough to chill the blood of even the most venerable Inquisitor. The disastrous fallout of the 1^st War for Armageddon, and the failed invasion of Cardinal Bucharis against the Space Wolves have shown beyond shadow of doubt the tenacity and independance of the Sons of Russ as well as their willingness to challenge the power and authority of the Imperium's highest agents. Should the numbers of Russ' stock ever rise none know what impact it could have on the balance of power in the Imperium. The Adeptus Administratum, the Ecclessiarchy, and the Inquisition all have enough cause to fear the merest hint of such a possibility becoming reality that should even the slightest proof be gathered the fate of the Red Wolves would surely be sealed. Unsurprisingly the Red Wolves deny any assossiation with the Space Wolves or any descent from the gene-stock of Leman Russ, citing the failure and dispanding of the Wolf Brothers as obvious proof that no such succession could be possible. Furthermore the chapter has always supplied their gene-seed tithe to the Adeptus Mechanicus in full and on time, never missing a single submission nor has the chapter ever provided less than required. The tithed gene-seed has always proven to be of utmost purity but of obscure origins, attempts to identify Primogenitor gene-markers has routinely failed. Occasionally a few genetic markers tied to the line of Sanguinius have been identified but only in one or two samples in a tithe, not enough to provide definitive proof. While most in the Ordo Astartes and the Adeptus Mechanicus hold these results as indicative of the veracity of the Red Wolves claims there continue to be a small number of dissenting voices who find the small number of confirmed results suspicious and possibly indicative of gene-seed stolen and supplied as a diversion. These detractors are largely considered paranoid, yet the suspicions remain and the gene-marker tests are inevitably tried again, and again, and again, the answers never quite enough to satisfy the doubters.

Aside from the machinations of the Imperium's elite few in the Imperium have either seen or heard of the Red Wolves, in fact their history and battle-honors prove incredibly difficult to find, even for the most learned of Imperial scholars. Only two battle-honors appear in common Imperial chronicles, the Shadeblight Denial, and the Fourth Quadrant Rebellion. Both battles were fought between 750 and 780.M41. What battles the chapter fought before, or since, are unknown outside the halls of Bloodfall, the chapter homeworld, at least, until now. With the onset of the 3^rd War for Armageddon and the 13^th Black Crusade, and countless other battlefields spreading like wildfire across the Imperium in the last years of the forty first millennium every chapter of Space Marines is swiftly becoming fully deployed trying to put out the fires and hold the Imperium together. The Red Wolves are no different and have been seen appearing across dozens of battlefields in detachments ranging from a few squads to entire companies, even chapter level deployments have been witnessed, bringing battle against nearly every foe who dares threaten the realms of man in these trying times. Despite the countless demands of late a few within the Imperium have taken the opportunity to learn more about the Red Wolves in the last few months than in all the previous centuries combined.

Organization:

Though the Red Wolves appear to be nearly as feral and savage as the Space Wolves and White Scars are believed to be, in reality the chapter adheres fairly closely to the dictates of the Codex Astartes. Perhaps this has as much to do with the constant scrutiny the chapter faces from other Imperial agencies. Even so the chapter maintaines the standard arrangement of ten companies, the first being the veteran company, the second through fifth organized as battle companies, the sixth and seven as tactical reserve, the eighth as the assault reserve, the ninth as the devastator reserve, and the tenth as the scout company. Each company stands at a hundred battle-brothers when at full-strength organized into the standard array of Tactical, Assault and Devastator squads in the standard numbers. Squad markings and identifications remain entirely within the outlined standards of the codex. However the Red Wolves do diverge from the standard in a few notable ways, though even these variations stand within the allowances of the codex. The first difference is that every tactical marine in the chapter bears a greater number of weapons than most chapters provide to a single line-brother. Each battle-brother is issued a bolter, bolt pistol, chainsword or chainaxe, a combat blade, and a siege mantlet or boarding shield. Each marine is expected to maintain these weapons and have them ever at the ready. Many Red Wolves choose to leave behind their chain weapons in favor of their combat blade as their sole melee weapon, however it is not unusual for battle-brothers to take to the field bearing their entire panoply of war, dropping individual items should they prove encumbering to retrieve them later. This alternate equipment loadout is a key to the central combat doctrine of the Red Wolves, the shield-wall.

The remaining organizational divergences are also tied to the shield-wall. The first company of the Red Wolves fields entirely as Terminators, the vast majority of these outfitted as Assault Terminators armed almost exclusively with Thunder Hammers and Storm Shields. Because of this the exact numbers of the first company are tied to the number of available suits of functional Tactical Dreadnought Armor in the chapter armory. At times this number has fallen as low as thirty, and at others has stood as high as a hundred and twenty. The Red Wolves are meticulous in the maintanence and repair of the chapter Terminator suits and will sacrifice much to secure fallen suits or to acquire new ones, be they taken from ancient and forgotten caches, stripped from fallen enemies, or bargained for with fellow Imperial agencies. The final point of major organizational difference between the Red Wolves and most codex adherent chapters is the chapter armory. Though the Red Wovles armory contains all the standard warmachines known to the Adeptus Astartes the chapter relies much more heavily on Land Raiders of all types than the more ubiquitous Rhino chasis vehicles. Predators, Vindicators and Whirlwinds are all deployed fairly regularly but the majority of chapter mechanized assaults are undertaken from the armored holds of Land Raiders, the greater transport space critical to the transportation of squads outfitted with siege mantlets. Of particular note is the large number of ancient vehicle types in the chapter armory. Older marks of rhino and Land Raider chasis are present as well as even rarer vehicles such as the Spartan Assault Tank, the Sicaran Battle Tank and the Mastodon Heavy Assault Tank. In particular the Spartans and Mastodon tanks in the chapter armory are highly prized warmachines well suited to the Red Wolves combat doctrines. Though once fielded in large numbers by the Space Marine Legions of old few chapters possess even a handful of these ancient machines. To possess such a large number is quite the feat for a chapter of the Red Wolves age. A few witness acounts even claim to have seen super heavy transports in the colors of the Red Wolves taking to the field, machines such as the Stormlord, Banehammer and Doomhammer. The veracity of these claims has yet to be proven but should they be accurate they would suggest the Red Wolves armory is willing to bend the rules of the codex to provide the chapter with as many heavy assault capable battle tanks as possible.

Unlike the Blood Angels, Space Wolves and many other venerable chapters the Red Wolves maintain a fairly standard array of chapter specialists. Apothecaries, Chaplains, Librarians and Techmarines all serve in codex outlined roles and in fairly standard roles, equipment, doctrines and numbers. A few cultural influences have made their way into the Red Wolves doctrines. The chapter Chaplains are informally known as the dark watchers, grim wardens who stand distant from their battle-brothers, watching the feats of heroics or foolishness on the battlefield from a lofty vantage. This enigmatic aura surrounding the chapter chaplains originates with the recruitment process of the Red Wolves where the chapter's Chaplains will stalk the battlefields of the warring tribes of Bloodfall, ever vigilant for promising youths. If a promising young warrior is spotted the chaplain will descend, sometimes at the height of the fighting, to walk amongst the combatants and quietly mark out an individual or small group of individuals. The chosen men will then follow the chaplain into the hills, never to be seen or heard from again. Even once an aspirant has risen to the rank of full shield-brother the chaplains remain a distant and shadowed brotherhood, ever standing apart from their brethren, grim and brooding of aspect. Far from the fiery orators and inspiring figures of other chapters the chaplains of the Red Wolves are grim slayers who lead through example. It is relatively rare for a Red Wolves chaplain to join the front-lines of battle, instead the chaplains stand as distant observers, providing tactical advice to field commanders, words of wisdom, caution and counsel. If need be a chaplain will rally the rear-guard and lead a counter-charge should the shield-wall begin to fail, the enemy force a breach, or a new threat arise. The chapter Apothecaries and Techmarines are known as flesh weavers and iron smiths respectively, titles derived from the language and culture of Bloodfall but used only as honorary signifiers.

The strangest and strongest doctrinal influences from the culture of Bloodfall to have found their way into the chapter specialists is seen amongst the chapter Librarians. A very closed and isolated brotherhood within the ranks of the chapter the Librarians of the Red Wolves are cloaked in ritual, dogma, shadows and secrets. While ostensibly organized and trained to the exact standards outlined in the codex astartes the Red Wolves Librarius maintains a number of specializations, methods, ranks and honors unique to the chapter and derived from the shamanistic culture of Bloodfall. The psychic disciplines of the Red Wolves are identified by shamanistic totem powers, earth, wind, water and fire being the most common and well known disciplines. Yet others, stranger disciplines can be found within the chapter, disciplines of death, vision, fortune, stars, sun, iron and many others. The exact nature of each discipline, the psychic abilities that constitute the disciplines, the precise number of disciplines, and even which disciplines are known to each Librarian are all closely guarded secrets of the Red Wolves Librarius. Collectively the Red Wolves Librarians are known as the Circle, traditional ranks of Lexicanium, Codicier, Epistolary and Chief Librarian are all used however decisions affecting the Librarius and the chapter at large are decided by consensus among the entire Circle. Though strange the practices of the Red Wolves Librarius still fall well within acceptable variance and doctrines for a chapter Librarius as outlined by the codex.

Combat Doctrine:

Virtually every combat doctrine of the Red Wolves revolves around the Shield-Wall, a tactic central to the fighting styles of the native tribes of Bloodfall. Composed of overlapping shields formed into both simple and complex formations the shield-wall is capable of providing a mobile fortress from which the Red Wolves can fight, either on the defense or the offense. Vast ammounts of firepower and overwhelming assaults can break against the shield-wall without breaking it. Curiously the shield-wall is one of the oldest and most effective battle-tactics in the history of mankind and has even been a core doctrine of the Space Marine Chapters from the time of the Legions of old. Alexis Polux, the first Chapter Master of the Crimson Fists, was renowned for his use of shield-wall tactics in boarding assaults and famously used those self-same tactics to great effect during the Battle of Phall.

Even then these tactics were used almost exclusively by a handful of the chapters involved in the conflict such as the Minotaurs. For the Red Wolves however the shield-wall is the core battle doctrine of the chapter, every battle-strategy and combat-drill is built upon this central tactic.

The Red Wolves favor for the Shield Wall has manifested in a general preference for endurance over speed or flexibility. Tactical Dreadnought Armor, Land Raiders, Centurion Warsuits, Dreadnoughts and ablative armor plating are all favored over faster and more versatile vehicles and equipment. Land Speeders and Bikes are relatively rare sights in Red Wolves deployments and while the chapter maintains the prescribed number of Assault Marines these units often fulfill a reserve or tactical counter-strike role rather than forward assault. It is also common for Assault Squads to be deployed as vehicle crews and shock troops mounted in heavy transport vehicles rather than as air-mobile troops.

Beliefs:

Like many chapters of the Adeptus Astartes the Red Wolves do not follow the Imperial Creed and do not worship the Emperor as a god. Instead the chapter cult holds the Emperor as the greatest hero, champion and leader of mankind. The nine loyal Primarchs are held as the Emperor's greatest generals and the traitor Primarchs are held as the greatest villains in human history. A statue of the Emperor depicted as a warrior king armored in gold and bearing a flaming sword and taloned fist standing thirty feet tall can be found in the great Reclusium of the chapter fortress monastery. Around the Emperor are statues of the nine loyal Primarchs, each one shown at the height of their power, armed and armored for war. Outside of the great Reclusium images of the Primarchs and the Emperor are relatively rare, instead the chapter favors the construction of cairns and barrows throughout the fortress monastery and across the surface of Bloodfall, the greatest being the field of bones. A great battlefield surrounding the chapter fortress monastery where the bodies of the chapter's slain are entombed in cairns and barrows and surrounded with the detritus of war. Chapter legend holds that the field of bones was the site of the chapter's final battle to reclaim Bloodfall for the Imperium though the date of this battle or even the nature of the foe are both unrecorded. Weapons, armor, wreckage from warmachines, skulls, bones and treasure are all heaped around these buirial mounds wherever they may be found. Though initially these offerings are left by the warriors closest to the fallen or were taken in the battle in which the warrior fell it is not uncommon for future warriors to leave offerings at various buirials.

The sheer scale of the monuments is difficult for young tribesmen to comprehend and serves to humble their arrogant and reckless youth with a stark reminder of mortality.

The chapter reverence for the heroic dead is matched by shamanistic worship of totem spirits and forces. In addition to the totems of the Librarius the battle-brothers of the chapter revere many totem animals, from bears, eagles and wolves to sharks, spiders, snakes and even dragons and sea serpents. Many of these traditions stem from the beliefs of the tribes native to Bloodfall who gather yearly at Yggdrasil, the world-tree. A spirit shrine located on an isolated island near the southern pole of Bloodfall. The Adeptus Ecclesiarchy has long sought these traditions stamped out but has been repeatedly rebuffed by the Red Wolves who cite the independance of chapter cults in defense of their traditions.

As you know a number of chapters created by the project have already been lost or manifested significant mutations and/or genetic degeneration. While these results have fallen well within predicted deviation and loss the failures have nevertheless already drawn too much unwanted attention to our great work. It is thus my recommendation that Project Homo Sapiens Novus be terminated and all records destroyed. Our back-up logs and research materials have already been transferred to the [fragment destroyed] site so that our work may continue at a future date.

As for the chapters already created the Flame Falcons were a setback but the Sons of Antaeus and Minotaurs show great promise and bear futher watching and direction and should serve us well in the centuries to come. However it is my belief that the greatest potential lies with the Red Wolves, the last of the chapters deployed from lab [fragment destroyed]. The manipulation of gene-source VI proved exceptionally difficult with most early attempts requiring total sanitation. Most of the adepts and overseers of the project believed progress could better be made by focusing on gene-source VII, gene-source IX and gene-source XVIII but time I believe has vindicated my decision to keep lab [fragment destroyed] focused exclusively on source VI. The resulting chapter appears to maintain a great deal of the ferocity and tenacity of the original gene-source with none of the impurities or genetic deviations and much broader genetic compatibility. I must admit that such success would not have been possible without Data-Source-Th...[fragment destroyed]... ade, I cannot imagine how you acquired that data, or from where but it proved invaluable. The resulting gene-batches proved extremely effective, particularly in regards of our goal to create minds particularly resistant to the influence of chaos. Though project Homo Sapiens Novus has ultimately failed in recreating the [fragment destroyed] I am confident that the Red Wolves gene-source will prove a powerful weapon against the great enemy. Ave Deus Imperator.

Homeworld:

The homeworld of the Red Wolves is a cold and inhospitable place. A relatively small world featuring three mountainous landmasses dotted with twisted ruins situated within a world spanning ocean of toxic sludge, shifting in color from bright orange to the red of dried blood. The homeworld of the Red Wolves bears significant evidence of past turmoil. Rusted metal and tumbled stone hint at past civilizations brought low by catastrophic war while mountains and hills bear scars of orbital bombardments carved into the red and ochre granite. The ocean of Bloodfall is a toxic, acidic soup within which virtually nothing can survive. The natives of Bloodfall, whatever their previous heights of civilization, exist in a feudal state of warring tribal groups who contest each other for the limited arable land. Given the rocky soil and mostly mountainous terrain of Bloodfall's landmasses the tribes must build great expanses of terrased hillsides to create as much farmland as possible. Crops must be carefully managed and regularly rotated to prevent the soil from being drained beyond use. A few tribes subsist by sailing on great rusted longships between the continents and the few other islands, trading goods between tribes and consuming what few edible fish can be dragged from the deadly waters. Because of the scarcity of resources the tribes of Bloodfall live in a constant state of conflict, each tribe warring with its neighbors for every scrap of land.

Only once a year do the tribes cease fighting and journey to the southernmost island to pay tribute to Yggdrasil, the world tree. Tribal legends tell that the tree is actually a sapling cut from its forebear on ancient Terra before the first colonists set foot on Bloodfall in the days before the Dark Age of Technology. Though but a shadow of its ancestor the world-tree is nevertheless impressive. Towering several hundred feet over the lesser trees of the forest surrounding it the tree seems to exude magnificence. A thousand feet around its base is a clearing where nothing taller than grass will grow and from which emerge hundreds of rune stones of varying shapes, sizes and styles whose builders and purpose have long been lost to time.

The only landmass on which the native tribes are forbidden to tread is the northernmost and smallest of the three continents. Known as the northshard to the tribes of Bloodfall and Niflheim to the Red Wolves the norhern polar continent is home to the chapter fortress monastery and other ancillary holdings and facilities. The north-east of the continent is home to the largest mountain on the planet, named Himinbjorg, and site of a number of mysterious structures tied to the chapter Reclusium and Librarium. The southern region of the continent is home to the field of bones at the center of which is the great fortress monastery of the chapter known as Skatalundr. As the continent of northshard lies at the northern pole of Bloodfall it is one of the coldest regions on the planet and often blanketed in snow, freezing rain and chilling mists. Nine dry riverbeds criss-cross the field of bones, serving as the primary transit-roads to and from the fortress monastery across the surface of northshard.

Recruitment:

Chapter Fleet:

The Red Wolves field a large fleet of vessels for a chapter of the Adeptus Astartes, however the majority of these vessels fall into the light-cruiser, frigate and destroyer classes with only a handful of capitol ships in service with the chapter fleet. With the exception of the Naglfar the Red Wolves fleet is designed and utilized primarily for blockade-running and boarding-assault runs, with engines and shields heavily modified to better propel and protect the chapter ships during such daring and risky missions. Allies who have fought alongside the Red Wolves fleet describe the chapter's vessels as surprisingly agile and tough for their size, capable of outlasting enemies of superior firepower and displacement. When a straight-up shoot-out is required the Red Wolves deploy their largest ships, a pair of battle-barges and the chapter flagship the Apocalypse-class Battleship Naglfar.

The Naglfar

-The flagship of the Red Wolves fleet the Naglfar is an ancient Apocalypse-Class Battleship recovered in 392.M39 from an undisclosed ship graveyard by Red Wolves salvage teams. Like many ancient vessels the Naglfar is far superior to nearly anything currently produced in the Imperium. Everything from the machine-spirit core of the mighty battleship to the raging plasma generators powering the ship are of ancient patterns and designs whose methods of construction have long become lost to the Magi of the Adeptus Mechanicus. Since it's recovery the Naglfar has become the dreaded flagship of the Red Wolves chapter fleet, a monstrously powerful warship that dwarfs and outguns even many classes of battle-barge.

Chapter Armory:

Many observers have questioned the Red Wolves unusual possession of numerous ancient and super-heavy class vehicles. In particular the Spartan and Mastodon heavy assault tanks possessed by the Red Wolves are an aberration. Precious few chapters founded after the early years of the Imperium can claim even a handful of such venerable vehicles, yet the Red Wolves, a chapter only a few thousand years old, can field dozens of ancient warmachines. To possess such an extensive armory of relics is an extraordinary accomplishment for a chapter of the Red Wolves providence and further evidence for the chapter's critics that the Red Wolves must have received help from more venerable powers in the Imperium, either from the Space Wolves, or elements within the Inquisition, the Mechanicus, or perhaps even from the High Lords themselves.

The reality of the situation is, perhaps unsurprisingly, not nearly so melodramatic. From the very inception of the chapter the Red Wolves have obsessively scoured the galaxy for ancient relics, weapons and wargear. From long-forgotten battlefields to the graveyards of slaughtered worlds and the drifting hulks of butchered ships. To locate such treasure troves of ancient artifacts the Red Wolves Librarians have dedicated themselves to gathering and hoarding ancient maps, star-charts, explorator logs, and accounts of ancient battles and voyages. Hundreds of locations have been scoured by kill-teams of Red Wolves veterans over the many centuries since the chapter's creation. Many of these sites have proven lacking in desireable relics while others have revealed priceless relics from the very earliest years of the Imperium. Given this predilection it is perhaps unsurprising that in recent years small groups of Red Wolves and even a handful of chapter vessels have been assigned to the fleets of Rogue Traders and Explorators of the Adeptus Mechanicus, putting chapter forces on the very front-lines of exploration and discovery.

Chapter Relics:

The Dragon's Scale

-This suit of Tactical Dreadnought Armor is a singular masterpiece of technology, forged from a mysterious metal alloy unidentifiable by any living member of the Adeptus Mechanicus. The artifact was forged by the Fabricator-General of Mars during the Scouring. Why the armor was forged, how it was forged or even who it was intended for are unknown. The Red Wolves discovered the artifact in a stasis vault aboard a drifting derelict Mechanicus explorator vessel. Though the chapter graciously returned many artifacts recovered from the ship to the Adeptus Mechanicus the Red Wolves refused to turn over the Dragon's Scale, choosing to keep it for themselves. Ever since it's acquisition the Dragon's Scale has served as the traditional armor of the Red Wolves Chapter Master. Stronger and lighter than standard Terminator armor the Dragon's Scale provides the wearer agility comparable to normal power armor while simultaneously providing protection capable of withstanding even the tread of a Titan.

Hunin and Munin

-These paired power axes are forged from blood-red crystal. Possesed of power fields of incredible potency and monomolecular cutting edges that never dull these axes are incredibly potent implements of battle with thousands of kills to their name. The axes have served no less than twelve chapter masters throughout the chapter's history. It is claimed by the Red Wolves that the blades were gifts from House Cenwulf as a token of alliance between the Imperial Knight House and the chapter.

The Solarite Bolter

-This bolter was one of twenty weapons crafted by the master artisans of Terra for the Emperor's Great Crusade, each was awarded to mighty heroes of the Imperium amongst the Legiones Astartes. How this particular weapon found its way into the armories of the Red Wolves is unknown, likely it was recovered from an ancient and forgotten battlefield. Regardless of how the chapter acquired the weapon it is a tool of war of extraordinary craftsmanship capable of firing specialized melta-shells, bolt rounds with miniaturized melta warheads capable of punching through even the heaviest of armor plate. Currently the weapon is carried by Chapter Master Wulfgar the All-Slayer and has served him for more than a century.

Heroes of the Chapter:

Chapter Master Haakon Red-Fang, Scourge of Mars, First Lord of Bloodfall

-The first Chapter Master of the Red Wolves, liberator of Bloodfall, and enemy to the Forge Worlds of Mars and Jupiter. Haakon Red-Fang was the epitome of Adeptus Astartes independance, vehemently opposing any interference in the chapter's buissiness or holdings by any other power of the Imperium. How much of Haakon's resistence to interference stemmed from the chapter's secretive origins or the hidden influence of mysterious powers within the Inquisition is unknown. Whatever the reason it was Haakon who secured the Red Wolves dominance over Bloodfall and ensured the future success and stability of the chapter for centuries to come.

Chapter Master Wulfgar the All-Slayer

-The current Chapter Master of the Red Wolves brother Wulfgar is held as one of the most lethal warriors in the Imperium. Even outside the chapter Wulfgar is held as a fearsome slayer ranked amongst the top hundred warriors amongst all chapters of the Adeptus Astartes. Wulfgar's fearsome abilities are further enhanced by his ancient relic-wargear. The twin axes Hunin and Munin, the Solarite bolter, and the Dragon's Scale terminator armor.

Master of the Forge Einarth Thrice-Born, the Iron Thane

-Known as the Thrice-Born, his first being his birth as a mortal child, his second as his rebirth as a space marine of the Adeptus Astartes, and his third following his near death in the explosion of one of the chapter flagship's plasma generators. Einarth's survival following the blast was considered miraculous, despite his horrific injuries. Some amongst the chapter Apothecarion and Armory considered implanting Einarth into the sarcophagus of a Dreadnought yet the young Techmarine demanded cybernetic rebuild instead. Against their better judgement the Master of the Apothecarion and the Master of the Forge consented. The result became known as the Thrice-Born, the Iron Thane of Mount Himinbjorg. With over ninety percent of his body rebuilt by cybernetics brother Einarth more closely resembles an armored battle-tank or one of the mighty Praetorians of the Adeptus Mechanicus' Skitarii. Below the waist brother Einarth is nothing more than heavily armored treads mounted on a light-artillery chassis similar to that used by Rapier weapon mounts and Thunderfire cannons. Einarth's right arm terminates in a deadly and archaic Conversion Beamer known as the Balefire Array. Einarth's left arm is similarly augmetic and habitually carries his staff of office as a Techmarine, a cog-bladed power axe. Einarth's armored head and torso feature multiple input jacks, power cables, and data-prongs. In the centuries after his rebirth Einarth has risen to the rank of Master of the Forge. In battle his tracked lower body propells him across the battlefield as quickly as a space marine bike while his implanted weaponry is capable of annihilating even the heaviest of armor. Few foes dare stand against Einarth's bionic combat frame and those that do seldom survive the experience.

Notable Battles:

Battle of the Shadeblight

-In 750.M41 the Night Lords traitor legion tried to capture the possessed cruiser Shadeblight in the Ango sub-sector. In a vicious battle the Red Wolves managed to prevent the Night Lords from claiming the cruiser and denied the traitor legion a deadly new weapon.

The Fourth Quadrant Rebellion

-Between 775.M41 and 780.M41 fully a quarter of the Segmentum Solar was embroiled in a series of brutal xenos invasions, chaos cult attacks, insurrections and rebellions fostered as a result of centuries of corruption and misrule by planetary governors. The Red Wolves were one of twelve chapters to deploy in response to the chaos and one of at least four chapters, the Red Wolves included, who deployed in full chapter-strength. Though many individual campaigns have been recorded in Imperial history the exact actions and battles of the Red Wolves are largely unknown though the chapter is credited as playing a crucial role in the restoration of stability and order in the region.
