Exposition



Here is a little timeline that deals with my original Chaos Chapter. I'll get to the whys, hows, pics and other information about my 1st Chaos army in the next post.

342.M38- A warpstorm in the Bethsamnel Sector appears. It is tracked and recorded by the Imperium.

877.M40- An Adpetus Mechanicus outpost on (EXPUNGED VIA IMPERIAL EDICT) ,near the Bethsamnel Sector, sends a message to Mars. The details of this message are unknown. Days later a Diagnostic Coven; containing several Magos Technicus, Magos Metallurgicus, Magos Biologis, their staff and several prospective Techmarines, leave Mars in four ships. Three are known to carry the Diagnostic Coven and their staff. The contents of the fourth ship are unknown.

877.M40 late- The four ships of the Diagnostic Coven rendezvous with a Adeptus Astartes fleet outside the Bethsamnel system. It is a contingent from the Relictors Space Marine chapter. Whether this was an intended meeting or chance is unknown. The entire contingent moves into the Bethsamnel system and arrive on the planet (EXPUNGED VIA IMPERIAL EDICT) in what appears to be a rescue mission. The warpstorm is recorded approaching (EXPUNGED VIA IMPERIAL EDICT).

877.M40- The Diagnostic Coven, Relictors fleet and (EXPUNGED VIA IMPERIAL EDICT) are swallowed by the warp storm. This is the last recorded location of said contingent.

879.M40- The Bethsamnel Sector warp storm ceases.

994.M41- A fleet of Astartes and Mechanicus ships appear in the Mosaik Sector. They drop out from within another warp storm. A small Imperial listening post records the ships arrival from the warp. The small fleet makes a quick warp jump before the names of their vessels can be recorded.

994.M41 late- An Astartes and Mechanicus fleet arrive during a rear guard space battle between Hive Fleet Kraken’s bioships and several Imperial cruisers. The combined force destroys the hive ships and then turn their guns on the remaining Imperial fleet. The only ships targeted were those with fully working engines. The mystery fleet leaves the Imperial forces crippled, stranded, and with remains of a few hive ships.

995.M41- An Astartes force arrives to aid in the destruction of an Eldar incursion on the world of Tetral Prime. The few vid captures show Astartes warriors in grey power armor taking up the fight against the xenos.

Their armor appears smudged with mechanical oils and soot. There also appears to be, wisps of smoke and ash that sporadically stream and puff from the exhaust ports of their helmets.

They also appear to have all manner of cybernetic and mechanical augmentation. They are seen fight along with many servitors and what appear to be Adeptus Mechanicus skitarii.

After the Eldar are repelled the Astartes force clears the battlefield of all their dead and wounded. They also remove many Eldar items and then purge the remaining materials.

995.M41- Grey armored marines are repelled by Adeptus Mechanicus and Imperial Guard forces while trying to sack the Forgeworld Ryboth. They are defeated, but not before escaping with numerous raw materials, servitors, vehicles and at least one type of Baneblade variant.

996.M41- An Astartes force reappears to fight alongside a Black Legion force on (EXPUNGED VIA IMPERIAL EDICT). They arrive to bolster the defenses against the combined forces of Space Wolves and Blood Angels. The marine force appears to be comprised of the same grey armored and augmented marines from the Tetral Prime vid captures.

998.M41- What appear to be, once thought lost, Legio Cybernetica robots fight on Hagia during the vast Sabbat Crusade. They appeared to be controlled by a group of Adeptus Mecahnicus and Astartes of an unknown chapter. After the battle the force is seen removing many pieces of Chaos armament including several “stalk” tanks.

999.M41- The 13th Black Crusade begins.

999.M41- Inquisitor Cyarro declares the Relictor’s chapter Excommunicate Traitoris. The grey armored marines launch several assaults upon known Imperial and Inquisitorial locations. It is assumed that these attacks are a retaliation to Cyarro’s declaration.

999.M41- The mysterious grey armored marines are seen fighting on the surface of Cadia.

They are viewed fighting alongside the Death Specters against a Black Legion assault using a large amount of modified combat servitors.

A few days later they also appear helping the traitor Iron Warriors breach a Imperial fortifications and utilizing large amounts of ordnance.

After each engagement they leave quickly and cover or remove all physical proof of their appearance. The only evidence that they have been involved is from eye witness or vid capture. Why they allow visual evidence, but take and remove all physical evidence of their involvement is still unknown.

999.M41- Inquisitor Cyarro beings an extensive investigation into the whereabouts and motivation of this force of renegade Astartes and Adeptus mechanicus.
