Hello, awsome thread, my custom chapter is Desert guardians they are a cheaper wrapped in enigma not much is known of them they were a special force within the Imperial fists Legion. They are all recruited from Terra from the Arabian deserts to be precise after the heresy they were entrusted with secrets vital to the imperium and it's future by there father Rogal Dorn. After becoming a chapter on there own they deleted themselfs from all Imperial records except from the inquisition database they are a well kept secret. They fight In many different ways but they are masters of stealth much more so than the alpha Legion or the raven guard, they are deployed on missions of great importance only, they are immune to the touch of chaos, they still belive the Emperor to be the reincarnation of the perfect human but not a god, they still recruit from Terra every year they come to the deserts and Mark the children that are to be Desert guardians. The tribes that still live in the deserts call the the jinn of old as they tell the tales to their children of the desert guardians,. The colour scheme of the chapter is desert beige with 2 crossed scimitars as chapter insignia.
Ravens of Xylus Set up on a Medieval world to act as a 'crusade' chapter (e.g go out to face the enemies of man on their own turf, and respond to distress signals of imperial worlds nearby). Corvus Corax Largely codex-compliant, except from their reserve companies, which i'll elaborate on the final paragraph. They cover themselves largely in black and keep the 'Raven' in their name to honour their founding chapter, with golden chest eagles and other heraldry. However, they wear their Company colours proudly in many parts of their armour (e.g shoulder trimmings, left knee, sometimes on areas like helmets and fists if they're of Sergeant or Veteran status). Example shown here of a 3rd Company marine. They don't seem to have any grudges with other chapters, but the battle companies are very independent and typically have a friendly rivalry with each other. Each battle company has shown an excellence in combating a particular enemy of the Imperium. The 3rd have been parts of numerous engagements against Orks, and the 4th have once repelled an invasion from a Tyranid hive-fleet tendril. Perhaps influenced by the nature of their homeworld's inhabitants, the Ravens of Xylus commonly act very knightly and hold aspects such as honour and glory close to their hearts in a similar way to European Knight Templars. Unlike the Black Templars however, they do not however reserve a hatred for Psykers and understand the power they hold. The chapter's reserve companies are not organised in the typical '100 tactical/assault/devastator' way which the Codex commonly dictates. They instead divide the 400 marines equally between them, and as a result each reserve company commonly contains 5 fulls squads of tactical marines, and either 2 or 3 assault/devastator. This is so that they can act in a better supporting role to the battle companies and replace their losses better. They also commonly tag along with the main battle companies and as a result gain more honours and combat experience due to them seeing more combat.

I am sorta in a pickle I like sons of medusa/thousand sons/ crimson fists / and one of my favorites is iron snakes but most are renegade or lost or are just unknown but the paint jobs and styles of paint I love but I just mainly hope in this game we will still get customize our players paint jobs and make a player from one of the renegades or lost chapters.
