Heh, strange minds think alike. A while back when I decided to get a small Sister's army going, I wanted to make some fun lore for them and a good color scheme. I also happened to have a small force of Grey Knights who really needed a job on tabletop. So I ended up with an order with similar grey/silver with gold highlight color scheme (and a single model in their 'original colors' of far more boring sea green and gold, since it was relic armor.) with the explanation being that their little order got caught up in a really bad demonic infestation. The Grey Knights showed up, cutting off the trunk of the Hydra of Chaos infestation and thus saving their order. But they refused to explain essentially anything to the Sisters (and most of the leadership had died heroically during the event.) leading to a comedic series of misunderstanding by the Sisters about those who saved them. The Silver Sisterhood deliberately adopted a similar color scheme to the Grey Knights, and filled in the gaps in their knowledge with conjecture. They knew the Silver Knights (the name they assumed the Grey Knights Chapter of space marines had.) fought demons specifically and had: lots of wargear that was uniquely suited to the job, a worrying number of Liberians, and had good reason to conceal their names/identities. (Assuming the marines had not told them their actual names.) Down the line as they kept sticking their noses into warp related things, sure enough some Grey Knights ran into them again. The Inquisitor they were working with at the time (I did have one with retinue to hand.) decided 'I can use this.' and as a result the Silver Sisterhood ended up based on a monastery ship rather than a planet. Thus following along and being useful when and where Grey Knights are not the play... then being involved in their battles anyway of course. This was back when 'forces of the Inquisition' had a single codex to work from, so a force would be a bulk of Silver Sisters, a squad of Grey Knights and led by their Inquisitor. The little lore write up I did ended up with the fun reality that the Sisters had a minor crisis of faith on realizing 'Its not that they've got a lot of Liberian's, it's that they're all psychers.' Fortunately, the Inquisitor had a confessor who cleverly twisted passages from the Lectitio Divinitatus (the Imperial bible) to essentially say 'All humans will one day be psychers as the Emperor intended, but we must be weary of those born prematurely, unable to handle their gifts.' (This ironically taking after an actual argument made by the Emperor at Nikea.) and the Silver Sisterhood ate that up, going from 'burn the witch!' as their first reaction to 'collar that brat!', which isn't much better but the Inquisitor figured was good enough.

Some ideas for the screaming ravens: How about honing in on the ambush part of guerilla tactics? Make them have a propensity for using drop pods and teleporting terminators on the battlefield? You can also tie the bulky and council parts of the chapter together with dreadnoughts, maybe alot of their old chapter masters are still around in dreadnoughts so while they might not be fit to lead anymore they could still be an invaluable council to the current chapter master. Might be worth looking into the space sharks chapter for some ideas as they have a giant chapter master are raven guard successors and ambush enemies in the void of space.

bounced a chanper idea with gpt and ended up with this, kinda wanted a traditional nomad group that focuses on sand Chapter Name: The Void Sands Key Traits: Nomadic Space Marine Chapter Mastery of Psychic Powers Precision Shock Assaults Color Scheme: Deep blue, silver, and desert sand tones, reflecting the colors of the night sky and the shifting desert sands. Insignia: A swirling sandstorm in deep blue and silver, resembling a crescent moon, reflecting their nomadic and mystic nature. Chapter Relics: The Sands of Eternity: Creates a psychic barrier. The Veilshroud Cloak: Grants invisibility. The Hourglass of Fate: Offers glimpses into the future. The Sandstorm Blade: Enhances cutting power and armor penetration. The Mirage Gauntlets: Amplify psychic abilities and control over the environment. Chapter Organization: Clans are semi-autonomous and led by Sandshapers. Five main clans: Clan of the Shifting Sands: Front-line troops. Clan of the Whispers: Skilled psykers. Clan of the Mirage: Elite reconnaissance. Clan of the Desert Wind: Fleet management. Clan of the Celestial Dunes: Leadership and strategic decision-making. Combat Doctrine: Precision shock assaults with psychic disorientation. Swift and agile fleet for rapid deployment. Adaptability in battle conditions and quick tactical shifts. Unique combat practices include sand transmutation, psychic sandstorms, Sandshaper assassins, desert rites, and psychic mirage tactics. Recruitment: Potential recruits are chosen from nomadic and isolated human populations encountered during their travels. Candidates must possess resilience, resourcefulness, and adaptability. Training is grueling and focuses on survival skills, adaptability, and the ability to operate independently. Fleet: The Wanderers maintain a diverse and agile fleet, often modified for stealth and rapid deployment. Each Sandshaper clan commands a vessel, and the fleet's mobility is their strength. Relations: The chapter is enigmatic and prefers independence. They have few formal alliances, with a reputation for their unique combat tactics. History: The Void Sands' origins are shrouded in mystery, but they were created during a time of galactic turmoil and strife. Their gene-seed was carefully selected to enhance psychic potential and resilience. Over centuries, they honed their unique powers and combat doctrines, perfecting their ability to transmute into sand and reform at will. Primary Ship: The "Nomadic Wind" is the chapter's flagship, designed for stealth and rapid deployment. It serves as their mobile base of operations, housing leaders, including the Clan of the Celestial Dunes, who make strategic decisions using the Hourglass of Fate. Motto: "In Sands We Transform, In Unity We Prevail." The Void Sands' unique practices, including their nomadic lifestyle, desert rituals, starry contemplation, psychic training, sand artistry, and harsh desert survival, reflect their reverence for the desert and the cosmic forces. These rituals and traditions contribute to their enigmatic and mystic way of life, making The Void Sands a chapter deeply connected to the mysteries of the universe.

They're gimmick though is that they're secretly Dark Angels successors because I couldn't decide between RG and DA. In-universe, even though they all look like DA and every time they send in they're geneseed tithe it tests and comes back as DA, they're all so utterly convinced they're RG successors they just believe the administratum made a clerical error millennia ago and refuses to fix it. Naturally they're pretty upset by that. They just decided they're Raven Guard and no one can convince them otherwise even though none of them are pale and almost none of them have black hair.

Honestly, I just realised how much synergy the Screaming Ravens would’ve had with the Speartip strategy of the Sons of Horus. It might even be a contributing factor in their lore for why they are distrusted by other Imperials. The Screaming Ravens could’ve been a Terran born contingent of the Raven Guard. Given Corvus Corax’s distaste for the Terran marines in his legion, coupled with their “unique” interpretation of Stealth tactics, they were kept at a distance from the rest of the Raven Guard Legion, eventually being sent away on independent assignments like most of the other Terran-born Raven Guard marines. They often worked closely with the Luna Wolves/Sons of Horus, with their disorientation and confusion tactics helping to allow the SoHs Speartip units to more easily isolate and kill enemy commanders. This ends up contributing to the suspicion and distrust that most Imperial commanders see the Screaming Ravens with in the modern day. Their pseudo exile from the Legion was also what allowed them to survive the Heresy and the destruction of their parent Legion at Isstvan V, which allowed some of their members to eventually create the Screaming Ravens successor chapter in one of the earlier Chapter Foundings.

It's quite ironic because Carcaradons are also a Raven guard successor chapter but are the opposite to the Screaming Ravens, perhaps there could be conflict between the two in a war, where they constantly argue and disagree on tactics to fight an enemy?

I could see a bit of a rivalry forming, since they're both fleet-based chapters out at the edges of Imperial space. That said, imagine the horrors they would create if they cooperated. The Screaming Ravens could pull enemy forces totally out of position to deal with Carcharodon infiltration by picking off sentries, attacking targets of opportunity, and becoming distracting, screeching, nightmarish monsters in the night. Then they jumpscare the life out of other formations on a separate part of the front where they aren't expected and close behind the lines to cut off enemy support while their rear elements and commanding officers are silently picked off by Carcharodons, causing total collapse of both the front line and command and control elements as troops are in entirely the wrong defensive positions for the threat vectors and can be taken apart piecemeal. With a few regiments of Imperial Guard for mop-up and support, the damage that could cause to any vaguely conventional force would be incredible. They could complement each other well.

Here's some ideas to help. Theyre from the 21st Founding aka the Cursed Founding. They have a relatively stable mutation in their gene-seed that cause their voices to be incredibly loud. Loud enough to deafen mortal men or even give a space marine a headache. Their chapter thralls are all deaf so as if the need arose for a Screaming Raven to speak they would not harm their own servants. In combat they have modulators in their helmets to reduce the volume to those outside, however when attacking their enemies the modilators are turned off and blood curdling screams echo across the battlefield. Outside of combat the Screaming Ravens use their voices for one purpose, to sing. They will climb atop the ramparts of their outpost monasteries and sing their piercing fortissimo across the desolate plains. The only other times they sing are when a Captain falls, their funeral dirge loud enough to herald the Emperor's guidance for his soul.

I really like the idea of basing a successor chapter around the principle of: _"You can't be 3 steps ahead of me if i'm 2 steps behind myself because i have no idea what the f*ck i'm doing."_ Personally, i think the Screaming Ravens should have a successor called the 'Screeching Jackdaws'. They're the exact same chapter, except they just do whatever is best in that moment, regardless of the consequences. "Why did you shoot the hostages?" ... _"Listen, do you see any hostages right now? EXACTLY."_ Also i just really like Jackdaws for no particular reason.

This gave me the inspiration to make my own space marine chapter called the twin serpents. A pink and bronze successor chapter of the salamanders that focus on search and rescue. I used Ai to come up with some ideas like how their home world is a jungle planet or how they are incredibly self sacrificing. While I came up with the idea that they cover them selves in mud and are trained therapist and medics as well as their jungle planet is used as refugee camp.

Maybe the Screaming Ravens act the way they do in/out of combat because of a peculiar mutation in their gene seed that makes them all extremely introverted/paranoid to the point where they only communicate with a special form of sign language they invented, and then when they enter battle they get a terrifying adrenaline rush that ushers them to scream every time they ambush an enemy to further stun the ambushed prey. Or maybe they only communicate in sign language because they constantly lose their voices after a battle of constant screaming, so talking hurts worse then stepping on legos.

The one thing I learned making 40k lore is "don't define your faction by what they exclude." You'll get bored making/playing the same kinds of units, and rules changes will be disappointing. It's more fun to reinterpret disparate units to fit in your theme. My AdMech occupy a Knight world which has mega-fauna. So in addition to my giant robots I have dino-riders. My elite infantry are techno-barbarians, more Space-Marine-sized than the spindly GW models (based on the skitarii in the novel Titanicus, using Warhammer Fantasy Blood Warriors). I take the GW sculpts I like, and heavily convert the rest until I'm excited to use them. Lore wise, the Imperial Navy abandoned Forgeworld Psalimit in the face of an ork Waaagh!. This caused a schism, as the Imperial governor and many Knight houses and Mechanicus forges fell to Chaos in a bid to survive. The loyalists nuked the planet and spent several generations underground. They developed an insular, fanatic culture: lots of test-tube babies, gene-manipulation, and "voluntary" servitors. They use the orks in the rad waste for training, and send expedition fleets to harvest material to sustain the dead world.

this was fun, i love headcanons and i like the whimsical ravens :D but seriously the ai did form a pretty great and very very unique chapter. i can definately see them being very confusing not just to enemies but to other space marines and not invited to their meetings :D My custom chapter is in the makings, theyre called the Moonbreakers, it also started from the models or rather my painting idea, i only just got into 40k with the new starter box (and im not planning on expanding to much on it, im fine with a combat patrol size force and then maybe collecting a few different armies in that size, tyranids are already in there, so they are my Hive Fleet Gilgamesch). I want them to look a little bit like classic nowadays moon space suits. I think they will be a succesor chaptor of the Imperial Fists and conentrate on "cleanup" - so they visit all the smaller worlds (or moons, i was thinking about them purging endor from the ewoks here..) and clean up incursions, xenos invasions, genestealer hide outs and the like, that could hide away from the cleansing of the big battles on the main planet. They should be a rather humble chapter with their main rivals being tyranids and genestealers, i imagine them like pest control on the moon, breaking up "nests" of xenos while having very little contact to other humans and becoming very isolated and weird. Like they speak so much in their own terminology they find it hard to communicate with other chapters. idk, im not too deep into 40k lore as well, i just think its fun and it fits my colour scheme too.

I tested it and this is what it came up with. Name: The Obsidian Reapers Origins: The Obsidian Reapers were once a loyalist Space Marine chapter known as the Void Sentinels. However, after a series of catastrophic events and growing disillusionment with the Imperium's leadership, the chapter's leaders began to question the purpose and loyalty of the Space Marines. The turning point came when the Void Sentinels were ordered to execute a planetary purge that resulted in the annihilation of an entire civilization, including innocent civilians. This act of brutality was too much for some within the chapter to bear. Symbols and Colors: The Obsidian Reapers have adopted a new color scheme and symbol to distance themselves from their former allegiance. They wear matte black power armor adorned with deep crimson trim, symbolizing the blood they believe has been unjustly shed in the name of the Imperium. Their chapter symbol is a stylized scythe made of obsidian, signifying both death and the cutting away of their ties to the Imperium. Beliefs and Motivations: The Obsidian Reapers reject the rigid dogma of the Imperium and its merciless pursuit of order. They believe in the strength of individual will and seek a path of balance between order and chaos. This perspective has led them to explore forbidden knowledge and embrace elements of the warp, earning them the designation of heretics by the Imperium. Combat Tactics: The Obsidian Reapers utilize hit-and-run tactics, capitalizing on their knowledge of forbidden psychic abilities to disorient and demoralize their enemies. They are known for their ruthlessness in battle, employing guerrilla warfare and sabotage to weaken Imperial forces. Despite their renegade status, they still maintain a level of discipline reminiscent of their days as loyalists. Leadership: The chapter is led by a charismatic and enigmatic Chapter Master known as Lord Shadowblade. He was once a staunch loyalist captain who experienced a psychic awakening, unlocking latent powers that changed his perspective on the Imperium. Lord Shadowblade is a master strategist, blending conventional military tactics with unconventional psychic warfare. Allies and Enemies: The Obsidian Reapers have forged alliances with various chaos factions, including renegade psykers and chaos space marines. They view the Imperium and its Space Marine chapters as their primary enemies, seeking to expose what they perceive as the hypocrisy and corruption at the heart of the Imperium. This renegade chapter, the Obsidian Reapers, adds an element of moral ambiguity to the typical Space Marine narrative, exploring the consequences of extreme loyalty and the ethical challenges faced by those who question authority within the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

I always wanted to make a gladiator/wrestling themed Chapter. They're all about boosting the morale of their allies by just aiming at the meanest biggest thing and make a show out of their fight. They have rivalries inside of the Chapter regulated by their leaders, which always motivates them to be better and stronger, and also to make a good enough show. They used really unorthodox weaponry, like plasma nets or chainsaw tridents. I didn't think of a colour scheme yet, but I like to think each "captain" has his own title and custom armour.

Hey Paul, I love the Screaming Ravens and would love to talk about mine; The IRON HOUNDS, using the name of a dead chapter they come from the cursed founding. They're from a mixed geneseed of Iron Warriors and Iron Hands, but due to their size, they specialize in tasks not usually meant for marines. The Iron Hounds are fleet based and work in the prison system of the Imperium, acting as guards and wardens in ships turned into prisons/munitions factories. They wear older armor patterns stretching far back to the great crusade with prison inmate orange with hazard stripes preferring close quarters swat style combat as a tactic to quell ship sized rebellions and riots. They also mix with adeptus Arbites and use a lot of police dogs. They span the galaxy in their prison ships but are more built for kill teams than full armies, usually using inmates as guard regiments and servitors and finding their own initiates behind bars. Things like chaplains and chapter masters are called wardens and act as such using the prisons to make guns and guardsmen to send as aid to other planets but with independence Iron Hounds can turn traitor or renegade and so the Iron Hounds wildly vary in loyalties. They offer to chapters like the Space Sharks and Iron Hands as much as they do with Night Lords and Iron Warriors but their main problem is mostly Genestealer infestations and chaos infused riots like World Eaters intentionally getting incarcerated to create Khornate cult gangs. They hilariously get in trouble with Ultramarines when it comes to their management and have been known to even carry certain xenos as prisoners with a surprisingly large Dark Eldar population. The only real character I have is more of a pattern for dreadnoughts that have an arm that's a long club like the japanese kanabo, so they can technically still use a baton like the marines. The motto is "canis canem edit," meaning "dog eat dog" My dream would be playing Kill Team on a big space prison themed table with literal cell blocks I can stack like Legos and torture rooms and stuff mixed with that amazing gallow dark box.

The Tange Marines are a chapter of Space Marines based on the planet Tange. Their armour is bright orange, a consequence of it being made from a variant of ceramite known as tangeramite. The Tange Marines believe themselves to have originated as the XXII legion, a clandestine project started during the Great Crusade to create a legion not dependent on a Primarch for genetic stability, though few from outside of the chapter believe them. Never having known a Primarch some in the chapter tell tales of how a Primarch will one day come to them and lead them in the greatest victories ever known to the Imperium. The culture of Tange, and of Okie, the city built around the chapter's fortress monastery influences the culture of the chapter, which incorporates a form of collective decision making known as Zaireeka throughout its ranks. In addition the final trial faced by Tange Marine aspirants before becoming full space marines involves slaying one of the great burrowing creatures that infest the largest feature on the planet Tange, the great Worm Mountain. The Tange Marines are close allies of a small order of Sisters of Battle known as the Order of Saint Yoshimi. Together they often crusade against the Necrons of the Pynkh Dynasty, who have been awakening and threatening the Imperial worlds of the local sector.

My raven guard successor chapter was The Golden Spurs. I had the name and iconography because I spit balled it during a Deathwatch game when my players pointed out that there's a requisition option for just...getting a random chapter to help you. So I began working on the lore afterwards, just for fun. They come from a planet that's barely above freezing *on the equator* and they live on the south pole. It's their homeworld because they were raised to fight the the Necrons awakening on a tomb world there, and were allowed to stay and claim it once they did. They actually have battle brothers show up during "Liberation Day" festivities. The have all white armor and have white caplets that they wear over their heraldry to make them hard to spot in arctic environments. They use a combination of range and stealth tactic, and have 20 companies of five squads each and have fewer tactical and more devastator Marines than the codex suggests

I did this with a chapter I've been rolling around in my head because of this video. Very much helped me to flesh out ideas that were really only half baked originally. I called them the Obsidian Guard. They're imperial fist successors, and they spend most of their time protecting forge worlds that come under threat, so much so they set up their fortress monastery in the same system as a forge world. Their origins are uncertain, but it's been rumored that they were originally "ordered" by the fabricator general of that same forge world they're neighbors with some 4,000 years ago, because he called in some favors with the high lords, and also probably made a pretty serious case for how important his forge is. The AI helped me decide on some important characters and fleshing out details. Because of it, i even got the idea for some special formations that typical chapters don't have. I'm kinda excited to flesh them out more.

From what you've said about your ideal Screaming Ravens, mechanically speaking, I would expect that the faction would like to make use of the Battle Shock mechanic. Granted, I am new to the hobby/game, so I am speculating without much experience, but using sudden bursts of sound, light, and color to distract and bewilder their enemies disorienting them and disrupting their lines of communication, that sounds like Battle Shock preventing your opponent from targeting the unit with stratagems and stopping them from coordinating to handle objectives. Furthermore, you could have a detachment rule (I believe you've posted a video pertaining to that already that I've not watched, so maybe this could be an enhancement, or something) that makes enemy Battle Shocked units suffer penalties to their rolls. This could then be supplemented with detachment specific stratagems to cause extra Battle Shock tests: Shrieking Grenades to force a test at range, Resounding Battle Cry to force a test on charges, for example. As for that idea you liked with the Holographic Decoys, you could do something similar, like have a stratagem to harshly reduce the to-hit roll of an attacking, Battle Shocked, unit; or perhaps something like Fall Upon Our Swords: target an friendly unit and a Battle Shocked enemy unit it is engaged with. Increase the friendly units AP on all attacks against the enemy unit. Lastly, you could make some more 'out there' homebrew rules for some Epic Heroes. I like the idea of an Epic Hero Psyker (Librarian?) with Lone Operative whose psychic attacks deal no damage, but instead, they do something funky like reducing the number of attacks on the affected unit's weapons by the number of unsaved wounds.

Thanks ti this video you give me the idea of doing the same for my own Space Marine chapter, this were the results: **Chapter Name:** Deceptive Flames **Chapter Symbol:** A stylized black flame intertwined with a silver serpent. **Chapter Colors:** Obsidian Black with Silver accents. The Deceptive Flames chapter was founded as a clandestine successor of the Alpha Legion, dedicated to carrying on their enigmatic and manipulative traditions. They emerged during the tumultuous times of the 41st millennium, but they adopted a unique twist inspired by the Salamanders. While officially linked to the Alpha Legion's gene-seed, the Deceptive Flames have genetically modified themselves to enhance their connection with fire-based abilities. This modification allows them to harness and control flame-based weaponry with exceptional precision. The Deceptive Flames have mastered the art of deception, but they've also incorporated the Salamanders' affinity for flame weaponry into their arsenal. They employ flame-throwers, melta weapons, and pyroclast-based artillery with deadly accuracy. These weapons serve to sow chaos and confusion, mirroring the fires of change and transformation they embrace. The chapter holds a unique belief that fire is both a symbol of destruction and rebirth. They see it as a force of change, mirroring their Alpha Legion heritage. To them, the fire represents the ever-shifting nature of warfare and the galaxy itself. The Deceptive Flames' hidden fortress-monastery, the "Serpent's Forge," is located on a volcanic world. The planet's fiery landscape reflects their affinity for flame-based weaponry. Here, they craft and maintain their specialized equipment and train in the art of fire warfare. **Notable Characters:** - Chapter Master Vaelon Shadowcoil: A master of espionage and a strategic genius, he also wields a relic combi-flamer with devastating effectiveness. - Pyroclast Veteran Captain Draegon Emberforge: A charismatic leader known for leading his brethren into the heart of the firestorm, his custom terminator armor is equipped with a built-in heavy flamer. **Chapter Relations:** The Deceptive Flames maintain complex relationships within the Imperium, often surprising other Space Marine chapters with their unconventional methods. While some view them with suspicion due to their Alpha Legion lineage, they've found common ground with the Salamanders and other flame-wielding chapters. **Notable Campaigns:** - "The Scorched Deception": In this campaign, the Deceptive Flames utilized their flame weapons to sow confusion among enemy forces, making them believe that they were facing a Salamanders task force. The resulting chaos played into their strategy, allowing them to achieve a decisive victory. - "The Forge's Fury": A campaign that saw the chapter defending their volcanic homeworld against a massive Ork invasion. The Deceptive Flames turned the molten landscape into a weapon of their own, using it to incinerate the invaders.
