Post rare space marine chapters
I'll start - Adulators. Look at that fucking sexy colour scheme.

Marines Errant. I have a huge hardon for 1700-1800s naval warfare, and these guys actually fight in space and use their space marines as MARINES
>>46223860
>The Marines Errant signed a pact with the Rogue Trader house under Sia'hadn Ecale in 390.M38. The two powers combined their resources to explore the Ghoul Stars for more then forty years
God damn I didn't know I wanted space marine naval adventures a la master and commander so bad until right now
Exorcists seem like Grey Knights without being Mary Sues. I might use them in my inquisition list.
>>46222945
What are they adulating?
>>46223975
You are most welcome anon.Also excellent taste in films.
>>46224000
>>46224000
Don't you have to get possessed and exorcised in order to join up?
>>46223975
>"Which weevil would you choose, brother, the smaller or the larger?"
>"Neither brother, for they are HERESY."
>>46224044
Not only that, you have to use just your own willpower to force the demon out of you.
Though I think their fluff goes a bit gremderp about their survival rates.
Mortifactors have a pretty sweet colour scheme, I always liked the different coloured faceplate from the bowl(?) of the helmet.
>>46224122
Well.. i mean... it kinda makes sense that its' grimderp about that? What with the demon possession and such? I do know that the Excorcists maintain extra scout companies (a total of 13 companies i think) because of the low survival rate of their recruits
>>46224057
>The Imperium is under threat of invasion, and though we be on the far side of the Galaxy, this ship is our home. This ship *is* The Imperium!
Works pretty well desu senpai
Preators of Orphius? Not all that unknown, but nice scheme regardless
>>46224151
I completely haven't been writing something with similar themes and ideas to this for about 6 months now with my homebrew Marines Errant successor... not at all
>>46224222
Share share share! These guys sound cool
>Inb4 Hammers of Dornfag shows up
Celestial lions count?
>Rare
You want rare, you gotta dig deep.

I love to shill my favorite chapter.
Salamanders and Lamenters need not apply for the most humane chapter's position. And supposedly best jumpack users as well, to the dismay of RG and BA.
>>46224639
yeah, too bad they barely have any fluff except having a death fetish
>>46224653
In fact they do my dear anon, they have a few short stories with they featuring in it, and even some with them as the main characters!
Their entire mentality is about being the most self-suffering fatalistic grim bastards possible, but all in the name of ensuring that mortal humans don't suffer like they do.
They all see themselves as being already dead and that suffering and pain is their lot in the universe and nothing will change that, so nothing can hold them back from fighting as hard as they can to protect the innocent and the faithful from feeling their suffering.
They're one of the only chapters that manages to be both very grimdark and very sympathetic about protecting regular humans, without those two sides of their mentality conflicting.
>All of creation suffers, young ones. Only in accepting our own mortality can we make a difference. Only in bearing the burden of our failures can we find the strength to go on. Only in detachment from glory, or honour, or jealousy... from life itself can we hope to spare others from grief.
>We are Doom Eagles. And we are dead already.

I'm a veteran of the old CM threads and I've posted a couple times in homebrew chapter threads. I'll post links because I don't wanna de-rail threadMore than I already have with my shameless self-promotion
Chapter Background

Story (i procrastinate a lot... but understrength boarding action against a much larger vessel is where it's going

>>46224000
According to BL, they're even made with GK gene seed
For fuck's sake, this is the rare chapter thread, not your shitty fanfic thread.
>>46224687
Any short story?
>>46224501
I tried to paint some marines like this but they looked too much like Nurgle marines
>>46224435
Mosley Marines?
>>46224148
Well I'd expect it to be fairly dangerous, but you'd think after a while and with all the knowledge of the Ordo Malleus at their disposal they could get some better psychological training from their Librarians.
>>46224760
The whole point is not to have training and still be able to do it... It's a willpower/inner strength thing
I can't imagine that the auroras are too unknown, but I never see anyone talk about them.
>>46224760
its about conquering the demons within, to conquer the demons without
>>46224730
Doom's flight pretty dope. They feature in many Blood Angels Rafen's story IIRC, and the initiation process is detailed in the shirt story that my quite is taken from, top of their Lexicanum page.
Really, all you want is on Lexicanum, look at the sources of the page, it should give you many stories to read.
>>46224721
>Howling Griffons
>Rare
>>46224731
Thin your paints.
>>46223860
All marines do that. They just specialise in it, like Iron hands and vehicles.
>>46224829
>Literally my point.
>>46224813
thanks
>>46224782
Well no, the point would be to keep them from getting possessed again. Training could only improve the chances of that outcome.
>>46224872
isn't possession a one time thing? like chickenpox?
>>46224841
No, you phrased it like they were the only marines to do that. Which they aren't.
>>46224901
>What is hyperbole
I do see your point anon, but anyone who is at all familiar with the lore also knows this
>>46224843
Mah nigga
>>46224894
Yeah, basically they summon a demon into the guy and he resists it and becomes immunized.
But there's a 50/50 shot at whether he can actually kick it out or not and they have to kill him if he can't.
My point is they need to train their scouts better so they can survive.
>>46224843
They get the shit kicked out of them in the path of the eldar serie.
For pretty much no serious gain whatsoever.
>>46225040
they nearly blow the eldar cw though.
>>46225061
At the end they get an ultimatum, either they try to finish it, and get blown to smithereens by the eldar rescue fleet, or they just fuck off.
It was really interesting to see how and Eldar CW behaves under an attack.
>>46225090
eh, still a chapter for a major CW fleet really isn't that much.
>>46224019
Probably the Emperor.
>>46224315
Is that night lords marine in the corner impaling that Celestial Lions dude with a pipe? Damn that's hardcore.
Any chapters that use earthy tones or pastels?
