Faction Name: The Ultor Reavers A mysterious warband that originated from the Heresy. None are sure from which Legion they originated, as their armor is unpainted, for they paint it in blood, and their emblem is simply a red sword on a black sheild. Faction type: Chaos Warband, Khorne. With a taste for blitz tactics and a zealous belief in the Blood God, the Ultor Reavers are warriors of simple tastes. They never kill the unarmed, however... And have a strong sense of honor. Planet/Location: Asteroid Field, base: Tomb of Respite. Leader: Lukhan Ultor "The Avenger" Gained favor for slaying the Chapter Master of the Mithril Templars, Gaius Ignatius. After leading a successful campaign against an Ork force near the Halo Stars, a Chaos warband appeared and the Chapter Master was felled by Lukhan with a lightning Claw. The Templars fled due to casualties, but swore revenge. Lukhan took control of the warband afterwards by killing the current Lord. Tactics: Blitz warfare, focused on Dread claw deployment in surprise attacks, focusing on doing as much damage as possible before departing with prisoners, tech, and munitions. Marines lead groups of cultists into battle as champions. Ground Force size: 100 Marines (heresy era equipment: bolters, flamers, Me IV and V power armors) 1,000+ cultists (varying equipment) Naval Forces: Battle Barge "Glorious Slaughter", Crusiers (x2), 5 Cobra Destroyers. Ambitions: To crush all foes and win glory through bloody combat. History: Founded by a group hailing from an unknown Legion, they have maintained a style of warrior honor for centuries. They dislike killing the unarmed, and would rather convert them, and turn them into warriors. Once led by a Chaos Lord named Jacune the Mutilator, a coward who let others soften his foes before attacking. He was killed by Lukhan The Avenger in combat, after he also slew a Loyalist Chapter Master in single combat. They now pillage and slaughter their way to Khorne's favor.

For psykers, the eye allows them greater access and control over warp spawned magic. Their base is called the "Tomb of Respite" located in an Asteroid Field. Company level element worth of Marines that work alongside a fair number of cultists.

(100 Marines, 1000+ cultists) They launch raids onto unsuspecting worlds, stealing the young, impressionable youth to brainwash into vehement followers of chaos Dread Claw blitz tactics are favored. They are led by Chaos Lord Lukhan Ultor Lukhan defeated Dredus Marlkoff, the Chapter Master of the "Crimson Templars" Loyalist Space Marine Chapter in one on one combat and has gained the eternal enmity of that Chapter.
