- Hardware: Marines: various types of tanks and vehicles Mark 4 armor painted a sandy tan with their shoulder guard painted with black scorpions tail.,Phobos pattern bolter Guardsmen: regular guardsmen: the men and women of the first army along with their PDF and garrison forces use a standardized universal camouflage able to do the jobs in all environments but less effective then theater specific camo,with carapace armor chest plates and flak armor the rest. The commando units are equipped with fully sealed carapace armor with the paint on them changing depending on the mission.

Background:The black scorpions originally from the salamanders legion the Black scorpions were created in the second founding. Sadly before they could even see battle the entire chapter was lost to warp storm. The chapter seems to have grown from the 1,000 marines it started out with, it is unclear how many black scorpions exist, but more then 1,523 confirmed marines are counted. From recovered Imperial records Reports of the chapter appearing fighting both loyalist and chaos alike through out history. In the early years of M40 A major Assault lead by The black scorpions and rebel guardsmen took and Held Jericho without a single shot being fired, by taking the leaders of the planet and having them Feign loyalty to the emperor. When the warp storms arrived the planet received little to no damage. Currently The Black Scorpion forces have engaged in a cold war The Terran Initiative, with a few skirmishes going the Scorpions way. The Chapter it self is very secretive and before their discovery would allow ships to pass close to their planets without the passing ships to its inhabited. With few even landing on their planets before action would be taken. of the few they would let live would speak of haunted planets that the Damned had claimed for themselves. They way they do this is they hide their fleets and stations in the debris and asteroid belts that orbits the planets.

The Regular soldiers while still legion are trained to a higher degree then their previous guards forebears.Called Guardsmen they retain only the guard name due to their oaths to protect this free federation of planets. as part of the agreement between the planets the marines vowed to protect the planets and in return the planets will give volunteers and material to bolster the marine forces. over the many years of this agreement military service is held as the single most honorable and valued part, with working in the factories to keep the guard alive. after signing up the volunteers go through a brutal training regime designed by the marines. For the Best and brightest there is the option to go to the camp. A secretive military installation located in the high mountains of the dead kings to become commandos, and join one of the special activities regiments.

The black Scorpions a word once almost synonymous with the words Loyal,strong and faithful. consisting of many of the salamanders who had fought in the great crusade and the heresy, they were made up of a thousand strong veteran force under the command of High lord Carolus Rex a relatively young chapter master at the time. Granted access to the STC for the mark 4 armor Imperial Maximus Suit, and the Phobos Pattern Bolter. Within the first year the entire fleet of the Black scorpions, along with all their full fledged marines were lost in the warp en route to their new planet Jericho leaving behind only a company of scouts to fill the void left. The scouts would become the basis for the second generation of marines known as the the rust scorpions(rust marines due to the color of their armor) a small chapter of only 400 marines. over the next ten centuries the Scorpions would make returns. At first to assist loyalist forces in trouble,their arrival was considered a good omen. They would appear from the warp and obliterate any non Imperial forces before being sucked back into the warp. as time went on These marines began to fire on loyalist vessel. The first and most notable being the Salamanders chapter in 32m causing them to be branded traitors. Disgusted by the Imperium's worship of the emperor and the fact it has fallen so far from the greatness they fought for the scorpion marines sought vengeance for the weakness of the marines currently fighting in vain for a long dead empire, for the inability to do anything other then protect what little is left.

Having finally returned to real space in m42 The Scorpions arrived at the Planet Jericho. At first The Marines known as the Rust scorpion attempted to engage the Black scorpions. Before any shots were fired The Chapter master Carolus teleported onto the flag ship "Eternal judgment" The single battle barge the Rust marines had. little is known as to what happened on board but the results were clear, the two chapters of marines were merged into one, The rust marines being treated as brothers and bolstering the ranks of the scorpions.Changing their armor color from the Red armor with the black scorpion tail to rust colored armor with the same emblem. While still counted as a chapter the marines call themselves a legion and soldiers of this legion are legionaries.

Carolus Rex: A terran, born 13 years before the the great crusade. He was there when the Primarch arrived to save the remaining marines in the Taras Division.He was there at the heresy's end where he was granted command of the black scorpions. He now leads the "True sons of the empire" as they create a free empire untouched by the lies the imperium says and by the tainted touch of chaos.
(will update later numbers of pdf and garrisons will change as of now i placed down only a few, and the hive world may grow some.)
Jason Nods, That means we have very little time...if some one has tried to break into the probe it means either the enemy has it already..or some idiot found it and tried to loot it..Jason thinks to himself. As he sits there listening to the CO speak his mind races over the possible scenarios he may have to go up against. It could have been possible that there was some one there who had the skill to crack it.. he thinks If so the enemy may know already we are coming for it... which means they may know everything already.. Slowly his mind shifts to where it could be The probe if it hasn't been broken into, would be held in a top level security research base or something akin to that.."Sir what did the Probe hold exactly?" Jason knew it was above his pay grade, but if this was as important as he thought it was I felt the need to ask. Some where in the back of his head he felt the crew should know if they were going after it.
done
Alright.
alright fun on the bun. just need the OOC to post it? or can we do it here? or what ? whats the deal there?
The rain pounds on Legions hooded head as he walks.The rain never mattered to him, unlike most who either loved or hated the rain he was indifferent. Rain was good on a job considering most would have their heads covered. As soon as he enters the school he looks around, and notices the posted assignments for rooms "Viktor and Daren..." he mutters as he reads. A quick frown passes over his face, he wasn't used to people this made things rather difficult for him.Soon he finds himself at his room and as soon as he opens the door he notices a figure a sleep on one of the beds for a second he stands there in the door way slightly annoyed, but the feeling soon passes and he goes to the second bed that is placed in the corner so the head if the bed touch both the back and right ride wall and tosses off his wet clothing and changes into a dark grey t-shirt and shorts with a Beanie to keep his head warm. After changing he sits on his bed back against the wall.
