''"We stand here, having lost not once, but twice today--in the ruins of this beautiful city. Yet, here we still stand. I say it now, to all of Chaos--all of it, that ; We are are here--bleed we may, but we shall not fall!" '' --Chapter Master Acarius Cordexus during the Battle of Oldenia's Capital--the Hivecity of Uldia.

The Wings of Sanguinius are a rather active--though unknown, loyalist chapter of the Adeptus Astartes, located in the Prismata System of the Segmentum Obscurus. For much of their history, the Wings of Sanguinius have acted as the main defense force and arbiters of the Prismata System--as well as reinforcements should the Cadian System and it's "Cadian Gate" require aid. Most of their active duty was spent destroying minor Chaos incursions into their system, as the Eye of Terror (A giant warp-rift in real space) resides in close proximity. During the initial stages of the 13th Black Crusade the Prismata System was invaded by a larger then expected Chaos Warband, made up of primarily former 21st Founding Chapters, the Warband making it's landing on the third planet within the Prismata System--Olenia. During the ensuing battle more then half Chapter was killed, as well as their Flagship at the time--the Annex was used as a fire-ship to destroy the Warbands fleet.

Chapter History
Not much is known of the Wings of Sanguinius, aside from the fact that they are registered as a Chapter of the 21st Founding (Also known as the Cursed Founding) and are one of the few Chapters not to have fallen to the taint of Chaos or be declared perditus by the Inquisition. Due to the reputation that comes with being a Chapter of the 21st Founding, they have found it rather hard to gain allies among their breathern in the Imperium, having found few friends within the Imperium, aside from their Homeworld's Imperial Guard Regiment--the 91st Alendur Vampires. Though, they mostly serve in a support role, the Chapter is a rather odd mix of tactics, being skilled in rapid deployments as well as being able to hold a siege as both the defenders and as the aggressors, this has earned them respect from some of the Imperiums other Astartes Chapters

Appearance
The Wings of Sanguinius' armor is primarily painted white--to symbolize the purity of that their honor brings to their heart, with the added colors of turquoise, red and gold. With the turquoise being used to trim the shoulder-guards, color the right hand of the Astartes as well as the knee-pad of the right leg and the inner leg and foot of the left leg. The red colors the the left shoulder-guard (which holds the Chapters Livery, a golden gem held aloft by two angelic wings) as well as the red taking up the lower arms of both arms, as well as the upper helmet, upper backpack, the left knee and right foot. The yellow makes the color of the two backpack beads, but only of the Tactical Marines.

While The Wings of Sanguinius almost always wear the ubiquitous Aquila Pattern Helmet--with Mk VII Aquila Power Armour, they also have managed to recover two functioning suits of Cataphractii Terminator Armor, the sets being integrated into

Combat Doctrine
Unlike most of their Sanguiniun breathern, The Wings of Sanguinius don't have an almost fanatical love of melee combat. Instead they prefer to focus on percise strikes from both at range, and at close quarters. In order to accomplish this their Neophytes are trained to use both the standard issue Bolter as well as a Sniper-rifle. This is to instill a sense of skill with ranged arms at an early age.

In general, The Wings of Sanguinius are Codex Compliant, though they do take liberties.Their baseline squadrons are 7-men strong--1 Sergeant, 5 Tactical Marines and 1 Tactical Marine Equiped with a Sniper-rfile. The main reason for this squad set up being that in most situations the Chapter will face, they'll require squads that are able to both engage in active combat, as well as have a Sniper in the background--providing covering fire as well as tactical information they can gain from their vantage point--as The Wings of Sanguinius Doctrine dictates that the Sniper of each Squad is to takw the highground.

Though they seem to hold a preference for ranged combat, The Wings of Sanguinius are all to familiar with the draw of melee combat, with their doctrine centered around 16 Assault Marine Squadrons--instead of the Codex Compliant 12.

Such Assault Squads are brutal, being declared to often be even more frightening then The Blood Angels themselves, as they fly in and attack with a Vampiric like frenzy, only seeming to stop the blood bath once their Chapter Master orders them to pull back--often chasing after fleeing enemies until they are all either destroyed or can no longer be tracked.As well as their Assault Squads, The Wings of Sanguinius have their Chapter Champion--the best swordsmen and warrior within the entire Chapter, who is tasked with fighting in the Chapter Master's stead, should he not be around--as well as the defence of all the Chapters deployed Captains--regardless of Company.

With all of this said, the Chapter itself is also

To summerize The Wings of Sanguinius' use of 'improved' Tactical Marine Squardons is tied directly to how they train their Neophytes, as well as the fact that they have possibly the most savage and brutal Assault Marine Squadrons (having 4 more then the Codex requires)
