A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

I love making lore for my own armies, and hearing about the original lore people put into theirs.

Raven Guard: my head canon is the chapter needs to venture out from Deliverance to find Corax, due to further issues with geneseed that has limited their resources.

As a result Shrike has assembled a special company under his direct command comprising of several specialist units from the 10 companies of the chapter. Deployment varies depending on the situation, could just be a small taskforce for covert ops, or combination of units for more complex missions. They are not always comprised of the elite of the Raven Guard, but are most certainly the optimum combination for the objectives at hand.
