For Homeworld being dead it could be that the surface is dead but the many deep and huge canyons are habitable.

The world is old. Old as balls and nearly dead. There is just about enough activity in the core to maintain a bare minimal magnetosphere.

The plate tectonics has slowed to a crawl and stopped long ago.

There are some deep canyons and great crevasses caused either by some earlier geological upheaval or the planet getting blatted by some serious space rock

Down here the earth is still warm, crops can be grown, animals tended.

It is indeed original, the surprising thing is that it isnt an official chapter. Not everything has to be marysueedge awsome, I find this name highly tasteful and fitting with the theme of space marine chapter names being basic yet apocryphal and mythological in a way to the rest of the imperium.

Upon seeing >>47366913, perhaps this chapter has plenty of Mk3 and Cataphract suits, rather than more modern marks? You could make an explanation about how their homeworld was an arms depot during the Great Crusade that was abandoned and forgotten when the Heresy broke out, or that they came across a Space Hulk dating from that era.

Yes,
and the world was so beautifull back then, large gleaming cathedrals, beautifull castles, great monuments, proud Blood Angels,

after the Assault on Terra, Arturius saw the corpse of his gene-father and vowed to honor the sacrafice, taking like minded battle brothers to create space knights, wich protect the world and nearby worlds form any defilers in Sanuinius's memory

>>47366701

There are the remains of cities of unusual design seemingly built for something taller than the average man that litter the surface. The higher tech things have long since degraded to dust and frozen sludge as has presumably any mortal remains. Only empty shells of old structures and more primitive constructions left behind the purpose of which may now never be known.

They are made, the majority of the lasting relics, of some sort of matt grey metal that seems to be a locally produced adamantium derivative.

The chapter has salvaged one of these empty shells and made it habitable again and called it home. It is a bleak and dead place surrounded by cold and night and only lit by the feeble light of a dying sun.

>>47367058
The eldar wanted something from this world,
as the roll-god said

the hero of 2nd company 8th squad was the one
who was in the boarding action of the eldar craftworld that was anchored near the dead world, in wich he experienced the Red Thirst/Black rage and went on a killing spree to keep away the xenos from his homeworld and it's secrets

so, what is the thing that theese eldar where looking for?

>>47367058
>>47367013
>>47366526
the xeno tried to reclaim the planet, emerging from an underground slumber to battle the chapter and devour the planets inhabitants, annihilating most of the Space Knights. As a matter of honor the chapter stills keeps this secret (and does scouting missions to exterminate the xeno remnants deep within the planet.)

>>47367107
We could pull a Retribution so that there's an ancient Craftworld buried beneath the surface. Or we could think of something more original.

tactical could be Gladii, singular Gladius
Longsword and Lancer is cool

>>47367563

>>47367622
>gladius
I thought about that too, but chose Broadsword because it got the use of tactical squads across (broad) and fit the general period of the rest of the weapons, the Gladius was a late republic-mid Roman Empire weapon iirc, it was actually replaced by a more longsword-Esque weapon by the time of the fall.
But desu, I can see an Iron Snakes Esque chapter forming here

>>47367675
Maybe we should just leave the naming alone before we complicate this to oblivion?

>>47367701
so the imperial knights, why does the chapter have them, how are they used and are they piloted by marines?

>>47367722
Imperial knights are used against threats larger than a angry knightmarine cant tackle,

they can be piloted by marines, but usually they are the chapter's replacement for a dreadnought,
since they value martyrdom more than eternal servitude, they are limited or are piloted by non-marines

>>47367722
They could have been modified by our Mechanicus allies to be like Dreadnoughts. When a powerful knight-brother falls in battle but hangs onto life, he can be chosen to walk the path of the Martyr Primarch and ascend to become a Duke (If that's what we call them)

>>47367792
Damn, anon jinxed me.

>1. You die, you follow the path of Sanguinius and fuill your duty for the emperor
or
>2. You live, your broken body replaced with steel, to fight the foul inhumans beyond your duty, you choose to suffer more, but become a hero for your bretheren and an example to the xenos why they should fear humanity

Since we're of Blood Angel heritage, do we have a Death Company/equivalent? What about the Red Thirst? How does the Chapter deal with these.

>>47368361
They don't, they are all on more-or-less intensive level of Red thirst, even the chapter master Arturius the immortal

>>47367119
The planet was once inhabited by the Old Ones.

The dead cities of the surface are of a much later construction. The dead cities are elder but dated to about 20 - 25 million years at time of last habitation. This puts them at a much, much earlier iteration of their Empire Cycles.

It is unknown for sure if the ancient elder knew about the Old One's former claim to the place although presumably they did.

The modern elder, who have caused trouble for the chapter, do know about the first inhabitants of the planet and are convinced that there is some ancient space folding tech buried under there that they could use.

They have not communicated this fact to the Knights because they are monumentally arrogant and thought a message of "We are concerning ourselves with your world. Do not interfere or you will be punished" was sufficient. Then they got all pissy when they were driven off.

The dead cities do not look like elder ruins because they are from another long forgotten era.

The Orks only turned up because they got lost and thought "Wilst were 'ere lets krump sum gitz".

The Necrons don't actually know much about the world. The ones that do visit are on auto-pilot and are still basically sleepwalking.

>>47368462
Maybe their a standing force to contain the eldar craftworld?

>>47368462
>>47368505
We mustn't forget that its still a medieval world, so its not soley Knights living on there, but a local human populace too

>>47368603
Most of the world is dead. It's only the canyons and pits where humans can survive.

A relatively low population of primitives isn't going to concern anyone, especially not the elder with their superior weapons.

>>47368784
The knights needs fresh marines from somewhere, the medieval pits sound good

I'm not sure I like dragging the Old Ones and super-ancient eldar into the world's history. I prefer the anon's take where the Chaos Legions bombarded the world into oblivion, and where it was previously an Imperial world with Imperial architecture.

The Eldar could certainly have a presence to justify their interest in the world, however. Perhaps there was a pre-fall city below the planet's surface that the modern Eldar want to access, but the Space Knights go "Lol fuck you xenos" because they see the Eldar presence as an attack, unaware of the city.

I also liked >>47366315 's idea with the ancient hab stations that the Space Knights barge into every now and then for recruits and the populace goes "We'll they're big, scary and protect the planet, so..."

>>47369681
I stand behind this, lets keep it simple and straight

>>47369645
>Chapter Master Arturius ripped off the Farseer's head and found it was excellent at bouncing, at the same moment inventing the new sport basketballus.

>>47369681
>>47366749
Also, since the world was fertile in the past, it would be a nice piece of irony that the now desolate world is named Garden of Sanguinus, when it's basically just a radioactive rock.

>>47369756
>Ever since the knights arrange several maches on a galactic levels wich include beheading xenos and using their skulls as a means to score points by thowing them trough metal hoops, the sport "basketballus" is second favorite only Blood Bowl being more popular

The original inhabitants of the Garden of Sanguinius suffered 99.9% casualty rate when the botched exterminatus fucked up the Garden.

The survivors, deep in their isolated canyons, would have could not on their own sustain genetic diversity and would have eventually died out through inbreeding within the next 10 - 15 generations.

They were spared this by the introduction of a prison barge destined for the penal legion crashing into the Garden just before the really interesting deformities started to kick in.

With re-purposed military equipment tunnels were dug between most of the major canyons, negating the need to traverse the uninhabitable surface. This eased the bottolnecking somewhat.

Side effect of the still persistent but mild levels of inbreeding have had an odd effect of concentrating inthe population the genetic markers that indicate gene-seed compatibility. Or at least compatibility with the bloodline of the Martyred Angel.

Because of this the relatively low population can support a full chapter although the Apothecarian has to graze gently rather than dig deep into the population as space marine initiates tend not to have children.

Downside is that due to the mildly mutated nature of the population the gene-seed is slightly unstable and a piece of it stopped working. Such is the nature of trade offs.

>>47377433
>>47377470
>Space Knights
>Founded in M37 as a Blood Angels successor
>Allies with the Mechanicum, field modified Imperial Knights as Dreadnoughts
>Homeworld is Garden of Sanguinius, a medieval dead world. Became dead because Chaos forces performed a botched Exterminatus
>Chapter is basically DEUS VULT IN SPACE with less chivalry and more Dark Souls
>Power flails and Mk3 armour
>Primary enemies are Orks and Eldar, who want to get to an ancient Eldar city below the Garden's surface. Space Knights say fuck you.

I probably missed a bunch of stuff, but the thread is "archived" at >>47375884

>>47377640
Some more about their homeworld
>Planet has a small population of humans that live in ancient hab stations in the planets canyons primarily.
>The population has more-than-the-norm of people compatible with the Martyr-Primarch (Sanguinius) geneseed, so the apothecaries carefully manage the population so they don't run out of recruits.
>The population don't really know much about the Knights, other than that they show up to take their children every now and then, but they also protect them.

And some more about the chapter
>They're big on being martyrs, both for their Chapter, their Primarch, and the Imperium
>Hence their colour scheme, dark grey in mourning, detailed in the blood of their father

So I modified the picture in >>47366726 because it really captured the feel I wanted for the Chapter. Opinions?

It's not 100% done but I got rid of most of the Chaosy-stuff. My botch work is visible all over it, but it's something that a drawfag could work with, perhaps.

I'm also gonna start making some concepts for heraldry tomorrow.

Going to bed now, so will see if this thread is still around in a few hours.

>>47377858-anon here.

Before we make a 1d4chan page, are we decided on the name Space Knights? It's an alright name, but I think we could come up with a better one if we want to. Here's some ideas I came up with before falling asleep

>Order of the Broken Angel
>Sons of the Martyred Angel
>Martyrs of the Angel
>Knights of Sanguinius
>Star Knights
>tfw Astral Knights is already a chapter
>Spatium Angelius
>Order of the Martyred Angel (Probably too similar to Sororitas Order of Our Martyred Lady)

Now to make some heraldry.

>>47383858
Well, for short Space Knights would work,
but for official name i vote on
>Order of the Blood Martyr

Chapter Master Arturius in power armor with exaclibur :^)
ill draw him in terminator armor later

>>47383858
i like knights of sanguinius or knights cruentus. anything with Order... infront of it makes it sound like some sororitas order.

>>47384100
Try rotating the sword 180 degrees, make the drop
a little smaller and flip it, so its blood drop on both sides

I tihnk that would look good

>>47384135
Man, that's badass

Ok so we got the armour under way, but what about vehicles? Do they have any special variants? I mean they are seige focused

>>47384164
Land Raider Sanguinius,
a land raider with an earthsaker cannon,
Stug-style, minus the transport ability

>>47384164
vindicators

>>47384164
Rapier Armoured Carrier
Cerberus Heavy Tank Destroyer?

but i dont think they would be heavy on aircraft

>>47384196
Wouldn't the actually existing Land Raider Ares make more sense?

>Medieval knights chapter
>No Terminators on Gravbikes with Power Lances and Storm Shields
I'm disappointed in you, /tg/. We should add some line breaking heavy cavalry.

Grav bikes with ploughs and storm bolters

i think terminator armor on jetbikes might be a little too heavy but have some power armor instead

>>47384855
should i keep drawing this model of jetbike or go for the horus heresy scimitar model that the blood angels use. personally i think this one looks way cooler than the blood angels one but if we want to be fluff friendly...

Marines getting something like the stigmata is how they choose who becomes a chaplain.

Is this a good idea?

>>47384630
>>47384658
I think it would be cool if we're in the far north-west of Ultima Segmentum, towards the Ghoul Stars. I always liked how that area is basically unexplored and full of weird shit, and that the Astronomicon is weak there.

I mean, we're a knightly Chapter obsessed with martyrdom living on a dead world orbiting a dying star. Might as well turn the grimdark dial up some more.

>>47383858
>>47383915
>>47384135
So what does people think? Knights of Sanguinius got at least one vote, and that sounds better than Space Knights (Which could remain the project title, so to speak)

>>47386130
If it's that that you want then go full and far west of Segmentum Pacificus. Out past Ultima Macharia where the light of the Astronomican doesn't reach and the God-Emperor can't see.

>>47386194
That would also be cool. Considering that whole segmentum is full of uprisings and rebellions, it seems like a nice fit for out chapter. Bringing the Emperor's and Sanguinius' light to the darkness and standing as a bulwark against treason.

>>47384469
I like the howitzer. That could be our long-range heavy support piece. As others have suggested, Balista seems like a cool name for it.

earlier we were calling them the red knights and here is the scheme i made yesterday, also why are we making a whole new style of power armour, i think they look quite good in mkIII

I think we're still running the same colour scheme, dark grey and blood-red. And I agree Mk3 suits look badass on them.

>>47386176
>>47383858
Personally, I've got no issue with space Knights, but something like Star Knights would be okay by me.

Maybe Knights of the Broken Star, Brotherhood of the Stars, Order Stellae, the Star Guard, Star Sentinals, Star Sentries, Fraternity of the Red Star, Bannerets of the Sanguine, The Red Partisans, Sanguine/Star Companions, the Crimson Brotherhood, The Star Wards/Wards of Sanguine

Something like those

I made some more ideas for heraldry, including my own take on the double-sword one the friendly neighborhood drawfag(s) have been using. Opinions?

>>47387009
i really like the crossed swords design

>>47387009
1 and 2

>>47382449
Maybe consider giving all bolt weapons horizontal wings to make them look more crossbow looking?

>>47386176

I still think Space Knights works. I kind of like that them having a corny name.

>>47387841
Me too, Space Knights is a pretty good name

>>47384894
keep it man, its cooler than cool

>>47387841
>>47387878
Fair enough, then.

>>47387009
1,2 and 4 look the coolest
>>47387841
>>47387878
Space Knights, straight-forward and simple

Since we've decided that the name will remain Space Knights, I'll create a 1d4chan page for the Chapter!

>>47388040
Youre doing god-emperor's work, son

>>47388040
>>47388142
It is done, brother-anons!
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Space_Knights

It'd be nice if we could decide what their heraldry should be, so we can put that on the page. Out of the suggestions in >>47387009, 1 and 2 both have two votes each, and 4 has one vote (Kind of)

Also, does anyone else have suggestions for heraldry, in case the ones that have already been suggested aren't up to par?

>>47388176
the heraldry should be the crossed swords because we already have 3 pieces of art with the crossed swords

>>47388176
Yes, the art allready has crossed swords heraldry

And we need to get a battle cry

>>47388476
Our lives for our brothers?

>>47388708
What about

>BROTHERS IN LIFE, MARTYRS IN DEATH!

>>47388729
>Brothers in life, martyrs in death
This one is great

any idea how to paint this scheme?

I have grey knights that are very similar and want to standardize it.

File: Space Knights heraldry co(...).png (147 KB, 1500x400)

147 KB PNG

Made the heraldry with colour and monochrome versions.

>>47389106
I'm not happy with the coloured one (Except the large blood drop), but I thought I'd share it anyway.

>>47389102
Use the art for reference, but i think its all different from brother to brother,
but its mainly black with red details and trims

>>47389106
Shouldn't have tinted the smaller drops. That's not how a liquid would drip off a sword in such position. Make it straight if you absolutely need to have the smallerdrops, it'l look better.

Otherwise nice, like the middle one.

>>47388745
>>47388729
Sounds too prideful, like they're doing it for glory rather than its because their duty

Kinda lame, but how about "sacrifice unending"? Or something better

>>47389102
You mean with actual paints?

A dark grey, such as Skavenblight Dinge/Charchadon Granite or perhaps even a little bit darker than that, and then a mid-tone, saturated red for the details. Any leaf-green for the eye lenses.

>>47389203
I've still got the project file, so I could potentially change it.

>>47389207
I think it fits, since brotherhood got rolled as one of their modus operati,
Brothers in life, since they are astertes from the same word
and martyrs in death, since they follow the path of sanguinus, that died to save terra and the emperor

Its dutyfull and grimdark as fuc

>>47389226
the colour that i used in the program was abbadon black and the red was mournfang brown, the eyes were caliban green, if this helps

>>47386435
The art armor looks like a lot like mk3 with a cooler helmet though. Rule of cool I guess.

>>47386385
How would the pdf be organized?

Also given the butchered nature of the Chapter have they broken faith with the codex and started bolstering the ranks with integrated pdf regiments?

>>47391549
That'd be kind of cool. A very pragmatic approach.

>>47391549
>>47391646
Why not have it on paper (in case the Administratium or the Inquisition takes a peek) "combat serfs"

>>47391693
Depending on where the Chapter is located, that might not be necessary. If we're either in far east Ultima Segmentum or in far west Segmentum Pacificus odds are the Imperial beucracy or the Inqusition wouldn't bother checking in on the Chapter, especially since they can keep tabs on our geneseed tithe through our Mechanicum allies.

Bump

>>47391693
They are usually either manning the big guns or acting as marksmen.

A trick the marines like doing when fighting orks is to stand out in the open and goad the greenies into charging. The battle serfs then whittle them down with laser fire whilst the marines keep the rest occupied with glorious close combat.

Can I just give a rundown of a joke chapter my friends and I came up with?

>Found parrelel to Blood Ravens
>Instead of stealing, these guys bake bread
>I mean they fucking bake bread like Salamanders make weapons
>The have Mournfang Brown pauldrons, boots, and helmet
>everything else is a nice white color
>They always smell good
>They made bombs out of pies as well
>Drop pods are Techno-Heresy that are shaped like giant loaves of French Bread
>They make Tech-Priests happy by making them Silicon Bread
>Don't get in trouble for tech-heresy
>They live on the planet Wonder for extra "lol bread"

We were extremely bored, my friend painted a spare marine up like one them and it's pretty great. Don't have the picture though.

>>47396290
How many Breadnoughts do they have?

>>47397974
The Chapter battle cry could go there, if it fits.

Given the world they call home I'm imagining them being rather bleak and bitter in personality.

Their reverence for the Martyred Angel extends to all walks of life in the chapter and all must strive to be in His imitation.

To this end the Black Rage is seen as much of a blessing, if a sad one, as much as a curse. As the Rage takes hold they are as close to the Greatest Primarch as an man, mortal or astartes, could ever hope to be.

They hold the writings of the Angel in Red above any other teaching. Above the decrees of the flawed Emperor and certainly above the Codex.

In this they see no problem in supplementing their failing numbers with mortal soldiers, as it was in the days of the Great Crusade.

Their Librarians specialize in precognition and prophesy, as their noble progenitor was gifted with foresight. A strange side effect is that the one prophesy, and the first one they make, is that all the Librarians see their own death. Just as the Martyred Angel did. And as the Martyred Angel they do not shy away from it but accept it and embrace it.

Perhaps a downside to this deification of their progenitor is the contempt for the primarchs that weren't on Terra when He fell. They are cowards, incompetents and traitors and a lot of this old grudge rubs off on to the descendants of those lesser primarchs.

>>47401258
That actually sounds quite cool.

>>47402167
Or we could have them not have an official battle cry beyond a hate filled roar.

>>47404854
If the space furries and world eaters can string together words, then they can too

>>47404966
Not if they've gone to the Black Rage.

For regular marines it's mostly just a very loud string of obscenities and curse words of which the native languages of their world have an abundance of.

>>47405335
How many Space Knights have fallen victim to the Black Plague?

How common is it to simply give them the Emperor's Peace rather than chain them to a wall and wait for the next battle to come along?

>>47405527
I'd suggest that relatively few fall to the rage.
Also doesn't the rage typically manifest itself just before battles? Martyr it up bois.
And now story tiem

> Markus looked up at the sky for the first time in his life.
> It was a black void filled with harsh points of light he was told where stars.
> His gazed dropped to one of the Knights.
> The eyes of the Holy Warrior's helm gleamed like the stars above.
> Harsh. Unyielding. Majestic.
> Markus prayed to the Great Angel that he would prove equal to the challenges ahead.
> He prayed that he would prove worthy of being chosen.
> But most of all he prayed that he would prove strong enough to give his life in service.
> Brothers In Life
> Martyrs In Death

>>47405527
The Black Rage is a call from Sanguinius itself,
the brother has been chosen, his martyrdom will not be denied

>>47405756
martyrs in death might refer to the death company
and that anyone that turns will die in the coming battle, like not a single member of the death company survives apart from the chaplain that leads them.

>>47406321
Now that's a good one. I was makinshitup.tm when I wrote that. Very tired.

>>47406321
How big is the death company

>>47408227
seeing as their under strength it would be smaller than most, and then because everyone dies, i say about a combat squad per battle.

>>47406321
If one is unfortunate enough to survive they stick him in a stasis coffin. There is always another battle.

They have often refused to fight alongside the likes of the ultramarines, dark angels and space wolves because WHERE THE FUCK WAS THE DOG, THE FERAL CHILD AND THE POLITICIAN WHEN THE ANGEL DIED? SAVING THEIR OWN LITTLE DOMAIN, WAITING TO SEE WHO WAS GOING TO WIN AND CHASING THEIR OWN FEUDS THATS WHAT! Maybe if those shits had turned up on time, like they had sworn to do, the Emperor and more importantly Sanguinius would still be alive.

Dorn and his spawn are alright though.

>>47408227
But anon
the chapter IS the death company

>>47408421
