Sons of Domesday

From the ashes of the Death World Domesday, The Sons Of Domesday emerge to bring perdition to the foe. Clad in black and red armor, they march as one army under a banner of a red fist. Wielding close-combat weapons, they slice through the enemies of the Emperor, fighting in total silence. Their primarch is lost to history, though some note their similarities to the Crimson Fists to indictate Rogal Dorn as their founder.

The Honor Guard of the Sons Of Domesday are outfitted in Artificer Armor retrieved from the lost Forge World of Midath, superior to their Battle-Brother's standard issue Power Armor.

Interestingly, much of the Sons Of Domesday have at least one Power Weapon on their person, as they prefer close combat to any other form.

The Sons Of Domesday and the Alpha Legion have long been mortal enemies, engaging each other in combat on sight.

Special Units

Warsuits:

This strange cross between Centurion and Terminator armor is a honor only awarded to the Veterans of the chapter. Customised exactly to the wearer's specifications, it is geared mostly towards close combat with the enemy. Common weapons mounted on it include twin-linked Bolters, Flamers, Chainfists and Assault Drills.

Knight-Marines

The Sons of Domesday have long admired the Knights of the Adeptus Mechanicus, seeing them as the ideal Son of Domesday. A Knight-Marine is a combat walker quite similar to the Grey Knight's Nemesis Dreadknight, allowing a single Space Marine to carry far heavier weapons into battle. Common weapons include Lightning Claws, up-sized Power Swords, Autocannons and Twin-linked Meltas.
