The story behind the force is that it is an arm of the Ordo Xenos, a sort of Deathwatch-in-training force. It will be led by an Inquisitor with a Librarian as the 2nd HQ. I enjoy painting single models that don't necessarily belong to any army that I have, and I wanted a way to have an army of random single models.
All 17 Force Organization slots will be filled with infantry. The chapters that I have found particularly interesting or inspiring will be placed in the more elite squads or hold a higher rank in the tactical squads.

Did I already miss where the Black Templars will go? I'm not a big Marine fan, but those look really cool to me.
ReplyDeleteThe Black Templars marine will be the sergeant in the assault squad without jump packs (they will arrive via drop pod).
