Siegemaster Terric Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Hey everyone I'm currently working g on a homebrew spac3 marine chapter but I'm conflicted on the name. I was originally calling them the Storm Consuls, but I was thinking Red Consuls instead. I know it's not that big of a change but which one do you think sounds better sitnam 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitnam Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 So the Red Consuls are already an existing marine chapter, albeit with little lore and no official paint scheme. So if you wanted a DIY that was completely your own, then you can go Storm Consuls. If you wanted to take a canon faction and make it your own, Red Consuls is a great idea i will say though that this thread likely belongs more in the Liber or Space Marine sub forums. I believe this sub forum is more for paint/model work in progress stuff Firedrake Cordova 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotsmasha Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 OR a minor adjustment to the Crimson Consuls? Firedrake Cordova 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firedrake Cordova Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Unfortunately, the Crimson Consuls also appear to have existed (and were destroyed by the Alpha Legion ), although it looks like the tiniest of mentions. Lexicanum has a list of loyalist, renegade, traitor, and destroyed chapters, which may or may not be helpful (I'm no good at this kind of thing ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firedrake Cordova Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) According to Lexicanum, the Star Scorpions died out due to their geneseed becoming highly mutated, and turning to Chaos (becoming The Pure). Their chapter number and colours were recycled into the Mentors in the subsequent founding, although they received fresh geneseed. Thinking about it, just because somewhere in the background GW lists a minor chapter as destroyed, doesn't mean they can't not be. It could be the case that there were crossed wires, and it was just a particular group that was destroyed, or a small band escaped (a bit like the Celestial Lions) - the Imperium is vast, and doesn't have perfect communication and note-taking. Or it could be that the deeds of the Chapter were deemed too great to allow its disbanding, and it received fresh members from other chapters to prevent its' total destruction after sustaining severe losses. Just a thought. Edited July 15, 2023 by Firedrake Cordova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
