Fluff:

The formation of the Ordo Equites Piaculum is spoken of in other volumes but suffice to say that the Primogenitor Chapter, the Penitent Knights, fought for a millennia before founding more chapters. The first of these Successors was the Sons of Mercy who occupy the Hive World of Altonia, 6 centuries passed before the Founding of the next chapter was possible- the glorious Masters of Vengeance in the year 683.M39 of the God-Emperor.
The Masters quickly proved themselves to be the most dedicated of all the Order's forces in upholding the Penance Oath, throwing themselves into the most brutal of Wars they seemed destined to have a short existence but against the odds they emerged from each Battle battered but not yet broken.

Over 2000 years have passed.........

The Masters are a shadow of their former selves, though relatively untouched by the Order's Civil War which saw 3 Chapters including their Primogenitor annihilated, the brunt of the Imperium's displeasure has fallen on the survivors of which the Masters of Vengeance are most prominent. Fleeing from Imperial retribution, unable to contact those surviving elements of the loyalist forces the Chapter Lords have taken it upon themselves to patrol those forgotten areas of the Emperor's Realm where they can still fulfil the Oath.

'Protect the Emperor's Realms and Subjects though it may cost you every drop of blood. Earn the Emperor's Forgiveness in the fires of War. To die for yourself is to be reviled, to die for the Throne is your only Duty.'

Alerted by distress signals the Fleet has entered the Catrian System where they will triumph and continue their endless struggle or die and be forgotten.....



---------------------------------------------------

"This is Combat Patrol Ferrus, we have encountered massive enemy insurgency in the Dominus Sector" reported Sergeant Mathias in a clipped tone.

"What is the current condition of your forces Iron Guard Mathias?" echoed a mechanical hiss from orbit.

Despite being unseen by the man he spoke to Mathias unconsciously slammed a clenched fist once against his breast plate before continuing to relate the battles his force had become embroiled in.
"My men are bloodied but losses have been minimal, there are a number of hostiles present on this moon Lord Konstantin, as the auguries foretold. The Imperial Guard is here in some numbers but seem divided in purpose, the armoured might of our Tanks and our own righteous purpose drove them from the field but more worryingly there is the hallmarks of an Ork Waaagh! growing from strength to strength that was too mighty for us to meet in glorious battle as the Oath demands..."

"There is more", It wasn't a question.

"Aye my Lord, we uncovered a nest of Genestealers. They fled before our wrath but I am...concerned that their presence has drawn the Devourer to this world"

"They must not be allowed to capture the energy source that this system contains! The Masters of Vengeance will not allow it!"

"I concur Holy Konstantin but we may not have force enough to prevent the armies ranged against us"

"You are remiss in your lack of faith Iron Guard, we are the Penitent, we fight till we conquer or die there is no alternative!" spat the Lord of the Tower.
"I will join you shortly with Squad Vasiliy, a war rages in the depths of the void and the Chapter will not be able to reinforce you with large forces at one time- we must slip our brethren to the surface in small numbers whilst the Fleet holds the attention of the Xenos and Imperium"

"The Iron Guard will not fail you...."


---------------------------------------------------

"Ave Imperator" screamed Konstatin as he swept his Crozius in a two-handed grip through the chest of the abomination.
His small force had been ambushed by a group of Orks and in putting the Green skins to flight had stumbled into a Genestealer nest, with only 8 Iron Guard and a dozen Marines the revered Chaplain had been hard pressed to fight his way to victory...now they were surrounded and it looked as if they would meet the Emperor's Judgement before their Duty could be fulfilled.
"Back to back, look to your Brothers!" bellowed Veteran Sergeant Mathias over the screech of the Tyranids and the roar of Bolters.

The force had managed to reach a ruined cathedral and set their defences in its courtyard, where there was no cover for the insidious organisms to scuttle closer unseen, the Rhino and Razorbacks had quickly run out of ammo after pumping hundreds of suppressive rounds into the surrounding tree line. So it was down to each man to make his peace with the Emperor and choose the place of his death.
"Ave Imperator" screamed the Lord of the Tower once more, a rallying cry to his remaining brethren
"AVE IMPERATOR!" came the deafening return from the tree line as Storm's Fury burst through the underbrush, crushing hissing four-armed monstrosities beneath its treads, Squad Anatoly close behind in their Rhino.
"Emperor be praised." breathed Konstatin "Men of the Penitent...Charge!"
