Crimson Thunderers

"Centuries of Loyalty, Service and Sacrifice and this is our reward?! Betrayal! How much have we suffered, how many times have our prayers gone unanswered! I swear we will not die! We will live and claim the lives of those who scorned and betrayed us until their blood bathes the stars!"

- Chapter Master Rorion Simiel, now Chaos Lord Rorion the Reaper

The Crimson Thunderers is a Chaos Warband dedicated to the Chaos God, Khorne. They were once a loyalist Chapter descended from the noble Blood Angels. The Crimson Thunderers suffered many problems over the centuries, with a large portion of their forces falling to the Red Thirst and Black Rage, following the destruction of their homworld Ion Delta near the end of the 40th Millennium. During the Gothic War, the entire chapter provided aid near the end of the war, but were betrayed when Imperial Forces abandoned them when a massive World Eater warband attack the planet Oran. The rage they felt at that action drove the survivors into madness, eventually falling under the loyalty of Khorne, who empowered these new followers to slaughter most of the World Eaters. Taking the survivors, the Crimson Thunderers now set out across the galaxy to get revenge on the ungratful Imperium, spilling their blood for the Blood God.
