Description
The Chaos Space Marines (aka Traitor Marines, Chaos Marines and Traitor Legionnaires) are counted among the most favoured and powerful servants of the Powers of Chaos.
Ten thousand years ago, Horus, Warmaster of the Imperium and most trusted son of the Emperor, fell under mysterious circumstances to Chaos. Besides the Space Marine Legion under his direct command, the Sons of Horus, eight of his brother-Primarchs and their legions also joined him in the Horus Heresy against the Emperor.
Only when Horus was slain at the ultimate conflict of the Heresy, the Battle of Terra, was the rebellion broken and the defeated Traitor Legions hounded into the Eye of Terror, which remains both their prison and sanctuary to this day.
Chaos Space Marine squads are the most numerous in a Chaos army and form the backbone of their fighting force. They are highly flexible and have the tactical adaptability to deal with virtually any foe. Armed primarily with the bolter, some squad members carry more specialised weapons such as the plasma or meltagun.
