List of Space Marine Chapters

This is a list of official Space Marine Chapters created by Games Workshop.

Their Primarch is mentioned as "Primarch Rubineck", possibly one of the unknown Primarchs listed in the Space Marine codexes. The removal of this Chapter's name may be the result of the content of the short story where at its end a Chaos Daemon Lord gains entrance to the Chapter's training centre via the body of a failed Space Marine. Further canon disregards the use of the name of the Primarch and goes on to state that the Chapter was all but annihilated fighting the Daemon Lord who manifested in their star system. Only two companies, the Sixth and Tenth, remain at full strength.

These are used to perform surgical strikes or seize strategic points with the aid of fast-moving Razorbacks or Rhinos. Like their fellow Chapters the Angels of Fury and the Raven Guard, the Legion of Night has forged their combat doctrine around such highly mobile insurgent tactics.

Minotaurs
That there existed a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter called the Minotaurs, created during the Cursed 21st Founding of the 36th Millennium, is not widely contested in the Imperial record, but whether or not they are the same as the Chapter bearing the name that took part in the suppression of the Macharian Heresy in the opening decades of the 41st Millennium (and the same Chapter that would later go on to play a crucial and bloody role in the Badab War) is not so certain. The Minotaurs possess a reputation for being unusually xenophobic Astartes, even for the Imperium, as well as often unreliable combatants who do not work well with other Imperial military units.

They wear cherry-red Power Armour and their badge is a pair of gauntleted fists imposed on a blue pentagram.

Red Hunters

Red Scorpions
The Red Scorpions are the Chapter responsible for the creation of the Land Raider Helios artillery support vehicle. They are considered perhaps the most intensely Loyalist and puritanical of all the Space Marine Chapters and will not serve beside any xenos or mutants, including even Imperially-sanctioned Abhumans like Squats and Ogryns. However, they have a high-regard for psykers and make extensive use of Space Marine Librarians. They are well known in the Imperium as some of the best melee warriors in the galaxy.

Relictors
The Relictors Chapter was founded in the 36th Millennium as one of the twenty Astartes Praeses Chapters who are tasked with defending the regions of the Imperium closest to the Eye of Terror, though they were originally called the Fire Claws. Following the direction of a Radical Inquisitor of the Ordo Malleus, the Fire Claws sought to collect a great horad of Chaos artefacts that they hoped to against the servants of the Ruinous Powers, thus earning the name Relictors. When the more Puritan factions of the Inquisition learned about this, they moved against the Chapter and forced it to undertake a a century-long Penance Crusade to earn the Emperor's forgiveness for consorting with Chaos. Following further conflicts with the Inquisition concerning their methods of battling Chaos, the Chapter eventually fled into the Eye of Terror and was declared Excommunicate Traitoris by the Ordo Hereticus. Whether this renegade Space Marine Chapter has actually turned to the service of Chaos or is simply still pursuing its own agenda in the battle against the Ruinous Powers remains unknown.

Sons of Horus
The Sons of Horus was the name given to the Luna Wolves Legion after their Primarch Horus was named Warmaster by the Emperor, to carry on the Great Crusade in his name after he returned to Terra following the Ullanor Crusade in the 31st Millennium. Horus resisted using this name, which he found overly grandiose, until after his corruption by Chaos, when he found such monuments to his ego far more fitting. Today, at the end of the 41st Millennium, the Sons of Horus are the Chaos Space Marines collectively called the Black Legion and they are led by Horus' self-proclaimed successor and former First Captain of the Legion, Abaddon the Despoiler.

Sons of Malice
The Sons of Malice are a Renegade Chapter of Chaos Space Marines who turned Renegade some time prior to the start of the 13th Black Crusade in 999.M41. the Sons of Malice were originally Founded to watch over the sectors of Imperial space surrounding the Eye of Terror as one of the 20 Chapters of the Astartes Praeses. Events leading to the Chapter's excommunication began following the successful end of the Cilix 225 Campaign against heretics who had threatened to depressurize three underwater hive cities on that world, and ultimately led the Chapter to declare itself to be both enemies of the Imperium of Man and the Forces of Chaos even as it took up service with a Chaos God, the Renegade God Malal, also called Malice, the Hierarch of Anarchy and Terror. Perhaps the Chapter's most eerie quality is that the Sons of Malice reportedly fight in utter silence, and those who have fought against them cite this as the prime source of the deeply disturbing aura surrounding them.

Sons of Orar

The Tainted are a large warband of Chaos Space Marines drawn from the Death Guard Traitor Legion who are dedicated to the Plague Lord Nurgle in his aspects as the God of Despair and the Mortifier of the Flesh. The Tainted supplement their numbers on the battlefield with a large number of disease-ridden Chaos Spawn called "Plague Spawn," mutated Plague Ogryns and other horribly mutated beasts who are collectively known as the "Rotted Circus". The most powerful of these beasts was a massive Chaos Spawn riddled with Grandfather Nurgle's plagues who was named "Jibberjaw". The Tainted were one of the 11 Chaos Space Marine warbands to participate in the Siege of Vraks, seeking to aid the Forces of Chaos in the defence of the Imperial Armoury World of Vraks that they had seized from the Emperor under the leadership of the Apostate Cardinal Xaphan.

Templars of Blood
The Templars of Blood are a Chapter of Loyalist Space Marines and Successors to the Blood Angels of an unknown Founding. Like their progenitor Chapter, these sons of the Primarch Sanguinius take pride in their ability to meet the foe head-on, although this is where the similarities between the Chapters end. The Astartes of the Templars of Blood are known to suffer from the Flaw of Sanguinius known as the Black Rage at a much reduced rate compared to the Blood Angels or their other Successor Chapters. This reason for this is unknown, though some suspect the Chapter has bought this boon through dark and secretive means.

Terror Tigers
The Terror Tigers played a small part in the Inquisition War trilogy novel Harlequin. They lost one quarter of their Chapter when a mutant warlord assaulted their homeworld, after which their Chapter Master ordered his own execution as punishment. An exploration team of Terror Tigers rediscovered the lost feral world of Hannibal, intervening in an Eldar attempt to reclaim the world as their own. The team dramatically came to the primitive human natives' rescue.

Thousand Sons
The Thousand Sons are a Traitor Legion of Chaos Space Marines wholly dedicated to the service of the Chaos God Tzeentch who were once one of the First Founding Space Marine Legions before the Horus Heresy. The Legion's Primarch was Magnus the Red, an unusual Primarch who possessed potent psychic powers and a deep knowledge of sorcery. Magnus the Red is presently a Daemon Prince of Tzeentch. The Thousand Sons also had an unusually high number of psykers in their midst, a number which only increased after they swore themselves to the service of the Changer of Ways, who is the Chaos God of Sorcery. Due to the workings of a potent sorcerous spell called the Rubric of Ahriman, none of the Thousand Sons Chaos Marines possess organic bodies any longer; instead, their souls have been directly fused with their suits of ancient Power Armour. The Thousand Sons may also have included a small contingent of Space Marines who remained loyal to the Emperor during the Heresy, refused to flee into the Eye of Terror and split off to form their own Loyalist Chapter. The descendants of these Space Marines may be the current Blood Ravens Chapter, which like the Thousand Sons possesses an unusual number of psykers among its Battle-Brothers.

Tiger Claws
The Tiger Claws Chapter was the original name for the Traitor Marines who now call themselves the Astral Claws. They were depicted as wearing black and orange tiger-striped Power Armour with a tiger head as their symbol. Imperial records were later amended to indicate that the Tiger Claws were in fact a separate Loyalist Chapter of Space Marines who were later believed destroyed in the Warp by the Imperium. However, a large portion of their Astartes survived and were illegally absorbed into the Astral Claws Chapter. They are now rightfully considered a part of that Renegade group of Astartes (see Red Corsairs).

Ultramarines

The Ultramarines have more Successor Chapters than any other First Founding Chapter.

The status of the Valedictors changed in White Dwarf 235, where they are said to be of a "later founding," (post-Second Founding). Therefore, in the most recent canon literature, the Valedictors are no longer a First Founding Legion. The Valedictors' Power Armour is oak-leaf green with a teardrop on the kneecap plate with a Roman numeral inside to denote the company. The Chapter symbol is a winged "V".

Violators
