None fight with more grim determination than the battle-brothers of the Dark Angels, who are held in awe by allies and enemies alike. Yet behind their devotion to the Imperium lies a shadowy obsession. Adorned with ancient relics and honours dating back to the Great Crusade, clad in knightly helms and solemn hoods, the Dark Angels are a sight that few could ever forget... unless compelled to do so.
Veteran Squads represent the finest warriors the company is able to field, gathered together in a single squad and deployed wherever the fighting is the thickest. Each veteran has access to a range of equipment, inherited from former squad members or gifted to him in recognition of his great deeds.
As the most accomplished hero of the Greater Thurian League, Ûthar the Destined is a Kâhl marked for greatness. His clone-birth was an event shrouded in wonder and Votannic prophecy, foretelling an uncertain fate that he has spent his whole life striving and sacrificing to prepare for. Few can assess the foe as swiftly or mercilessly as Ûthar and – once he has his enemies’ measure – he soon cuts them to pieces with the glowing Blade of the Ancestors.
Seasoned commanders of the Hearthguard tasked with leading from the front, Einhyr Champions wear modified exo-armour fitted with mass drivers. Combined with their formidable close-quarters weaponry and bulky RAM shields, this hulking war-suit transforms them into living battering rams whose accelerated charge hits hard enough to smash clean through armoured fortress gates.
Grand Master Belial is a fearless leader of the Dark Angels Chapter – a warrior whose skill in battle has always stood out, even amongst his transhuman brethren. As the Grand Master of the Deathwing, he is a staunch perfectionist, celebrating none of his many victories, but instead chastising himself and seeking to repent for any perceived weakness. Belial prizes ruthless killing efficiency over elegance or artifice, leading the Dark Angels to triumph in the most gruelling and ruinous theatres of war.
Asmodai is a legendary Interrogator-Chaplain of the Dark Angels Chapter. Relentless and humourless, the Master of Repentance suffers no weakness or compromise amongst his allies. In battle, he incites the fighting spirit of his brothers to new heights, rendering them unstoppable killing machines by chanting litanies of hate with unshakeable zeal.
Azrael is Supreme Grand Master of the Dark Angels, defender of his Chapter's honour, and a beacon of inspiration to his battle-brothers. The Keeper of the Truth is renowned for his tactical abilities, a masterful commander who quickly grasps changing battlefield realities and orchestrates his forces to maximum advantage. Even in the fray, Azrael fights with decisive precision, decapitating enemies of the Unforgiven with every strike from the Sword of Secrets.
The Grimnyr – also known as Living Ancestors – are privy to the wisdom of the Votann, and the closest analogue to priests among the secular Leagues of Votann. Engineered with a psychically-active cloneskein that allows them to activate barrier-tech such as ward staves and energy-focusing CORVs, these Kin are able to rouse the fury of the immaterium against their foes.
Brôkhyrs are the engineers and artisans of the Leagues, and Iron-masters are the most accomplished of their kind. In battle, they take on the duty of maintaining damaged Kin war engines, often aided by Ironkin and COG repair crews. These veteran Brôkhyrs also bring their most powerful creations to war, taking satisfaction in unleashing them upon the foe with their own hands.
