This page is about the Black Legion warband. For the Death Guard vectorium see Corpsemakers (Death Guard).
The Corpsemakers are a cruel, twenty-strong warband of Chaos Space Marines drawn from the notorious Black Legion. During the Eydolim Campaign, the Chaos Space Marine forces were bolstered by warriors from the Black Legion, few of whom were as influential, or as cruel, as the Corpsemakers. This rampaging squad of Traitors and murderers battled their way into the breach before their bloody advance was halted by the Imperial forces. The Corpsemakers' allegiance, like their parent legion, is to Chaos Undivided.
Warband History
Notable Campaigns
- Eydolim Campaign (Unknown Date.M41) - The Corpsemakers were among the murderous alliance of Chaos Space Marines that served the Greater Daemon Kor Megron in assailing the world of Eydolim and other nearby worlds. Amongst the Chaos Space Marine forces, few were as influential, or as cruel, as the Corpsemakers. This particular Chaos campaign was unusual, in that such overwhelming assaults and universal cooperation is normally the province of a Black Crusade. This speaks volumes of Kor Megron's power since he was able to manipulate so many disparate Chaos Space Marine warbands to do his bidding. When the Chaos Space Marines assaulted the walls of the planetary capital of Eydol City, a 20-strong squad of Traitors and murderers from this warband battled their way into the breach before their bloody advance was halted.
