Death Angels

Death Angels
"As darkness descends upon us brothers, think of the blood your swords shall drink, the heretics you shall slay, daemons that you shall terrify with blinding death; You are the instrument of his will! Kill the heretic and spill the unclean! We shall make a wall from their bodies and hold to the last gasp and we shall know no fear!"

- Chapter master Tairinis before the first siege of Tenadain the Home planet of the Death Angels before dying at the first siege of Tenadain.

Founding
The Death Angels are a successor chapter to the Blood Angels. The Death Angels where created to quell rebellion. Their planet is Tenadain and they reside in their fort called The Bane Fortress.

Recovering from a harrowing siege of their home planet of Tenadain from chaos forces (hence their low numbers) the Death Angels still try to complete their objectives and serve the emperor to the best of their ability.

The Death Angels have been recently sighted active on the planet Vulcan 5 fighting the Evil Eyes Ork tribe infesting the planet.

Tactics
The Death Angels being so vicious and fearsome using violent fast assault and fear tactics to kill their enemy. The Death Angels also use a large amount of Death Company because of this. The Death Angels also use a large amount of devastators and heavy ordinance weapons to eviscerate terrain so their assault troops can move in with ease.

Death Angels try to be fear its self.

The Death Angels make use of swords. Every Death Angel is a swordsman by their own right. Though they are vicious, Death Angels believe that the power sword or any sword is a much more versatile weapon in close combat than any other. Death Angel's grace and precision with the weapon is terrifying.
