granted, but since the thread quickly moved from chapters to individuals i thought i'd give ol' swarmy a shout since he is a close combat monster :)

on topic though: the deathwing. while it's only a single company of a chapter it is one of the most (if not the single most) feared companies of any astartes chapter. they're maybe not quite on par with the death company or world eaters in close combat but they are in complete control of their faculties, and the deathwing knights must be, at least, on par with them. i'm not too sure but aren't the deathwing knights one of the best close combat units in 40k?
