Let's make a chapter 40k

homebrew space marine chapter! I want it to be a chapter wich was nearly wiped out from a plague unleashed by nurgle. so the main theme is tons of dreadnoughts since the plague ate the marines muscles to a point as anyone who survived was a crippled mess. thus a mostly dread chapter. having trouble with colors I like so any schemes is what i'm looking for thanks lads. any ideas on their lore are appreciated.

>Even on death, I still fuck your mother

...

>Mostly dread

Let's not get carried away now.

kek I wanted the chapter to be mostly dreadnoughts if not all aside from the few hundred marines wich were unaffected by the virus

Maybe you can theme them around Golem folklore.

Also, Carcharodons best paint scheme.

golem folklore eh i'll look into it sounds cool. also what do you think would be the best chapter they could succeed from aside from iron hands they are to obvious and I want some brighter schemes and lots of laurels and flamboyant symbols on the dreads

How recent was this incident?

They'd probably have at least Neophytes or Primaris Marines to replace their lost numbers if it was super recent, or a few squads of marines

I should have added they were fighting on the far reaches of the milky way with the galaxy and happened apon the pox when assisting the machanicum. when the plague killed its marines off the inquisition rather than send supplies deemed the chapter destroyed. this wasnt recent happened before the recent events of the primarius marines.

Have they got a name/theme? That helps with the colors.
