Default my DIY army. It's a work in progress

Well I think that this is the forum that this would go in.

Name: Excomunicatus Praetorus, Praetorians,
HOME: Mobile attack fleet. Recruitment has dwindled due to poor relations with Terra and Mars.
RULES: either Dark Angels or Heed the Wisdom of the ancients and No Allies.
FOUNDING: Unknown, Believed to be 13th
GENESEED: Despite being a chapter renowned for having excessive stores of knowledge, their own geneseed continues to be a mystery to them. It is possible that the Fabricator General or the parent chapter knows. However, leting that information go could be very damaging to Mars, having to acknowledge the circumstances of their founding, and for the parent chapter, having their geneseed attached to a nearly heretical chapter. The geneseed shows no signs of mutation and is fully functional. They believe that the geneseed may have come from the Imperial Fists or Dark Angels.

HISTORY: The chapter leadership is known to be ancient and unflinching in their loyalty to the ideas the emperor put forward. The drastic difference between this chapter and another is they believe in the classical Imperial Truth, that there is nothing that cannot be explained, a materialistic reductionist philosophy. They believe that while the terror of the warp presents strange and unique things, that they are completely explainable. This results in their denouncement of the Emperor as a God, and instead acknowledging him as a great leader and someone worthy of respect and honour.
At this point the particular military actions of the chapter are held to be a close and dire secret. A structure similar to the Dark Angels exists. One that provides certain information to higher echelons of the command structure. However, with numbers dwindling and the age of every marine being extensive, the majority of the chapter knows the complete history.
If others knew of the actions taken by this chapter, they would surely be annihilated immediately. Some action at some point caused certain parts of the adeptus mechanicus to "excomunicate" them. Despite this, the chapter maintains a large number of andvanced technologies and every member of the chapter has a knowledge of the technology to rival a techmarine.


More to come as I flesh them out.
