5th Squad - Squad Valerius
Sgt. Valerius and his squad are the 4th Company's Plasma specialists, being the only squad to field Plasma weapons in both the Special and Heavy weapon slots. The sheer power the squad can bring to either anti-armor or anti-infantry situations is astounding, but their true calling is in dispatching the heavy infantry formations of the Chaos Marines. |
6th Squad The Dark Angels Successor Chapter Angels of Redemption returned after 10 millennia of disappearance from the Imperial rolls. The Inner Circle was apparently aware of their reason for separation, and the remnants of the embattled Chapter were reabsorbed back into the Dark Angels as full brothers. Squads were kept intact but distributed throughout the Dark Angels Companies. The 6th squad keeps its black armor color in honor of the redeemed Successor, but the company markings and left shoulder armor are to current Dark Angels standard. |
7th Squad - Squad Leonidus
The 7th Squad has a dual Fast Attack role to fill. Six of the brothers are equipped with jump packs and close combat weaponry, and are tasked to close with the enemy at the right place and time to turn the tide of battle. The four other marines crew two Multi-Melta armed Land Speeders, offering the Battle Force a quick strike option to dismantle any armor threat encountered. |
8th Squad - Squad Faustus
Squad Faustus has shed their jump packs to rely upon the Company's vehicle pool to quickly deliver them to the enemy. Unmatched in savagery and usually led by Chaplain Quintus in battle, the 8th Squad has delivered the decisive strike upon the command group of their enemies countless times. |
10th Squad - Squad Zaniel
The 10th Squad provides a devastating mix of Las-cannon and Missile Launcher firepower. During the purging of the Heretic Inquisitor Angelus, the squad was able to almost single-handedly destroy the combat capability of the opposing forces, accounting for a Predator Tank, a fully loaded Rhino, and four charging Lightning Claw Terminators. |
