EC (maybe): Sooooooo how’s the chapter doing.
IH: Still dealing with the death of our father, though we’re finally coming to accept emotions
EC: THEN YOU ADMIT YOUR SICK.
IH: Permission to terminate this heretic.
DA: I don’t even know why I’m here.
I’ve started to take a liking to the Emperor’s Spears and their cousins the Celestial Lions so in honour of the Fourth War seeing the Emperor’s Spears and Celestial Lions fighting on Armageddon I wanted to do a version of my Tactical as a Emperor’s Spear and Celestial Lion
I think this might be my favourite Deathwatch Space Marine just behind the my Dark Krakens Deathwatch veteran
I recently unlocked the Cruor Blades Decal in SM2 and wanted to show my attempt at a chapter that I really hope we see more of. I do have a few questions though: 1st do we know much about their lore. 2nd does leadblecher or celestial grey look better.
Also forgive the Aquila being red in the last pick. Meant for it to be black
My Iron Hands Squad in SM2
Tactical: Clan Garrsak
Assault Clan Morlaag
Vanguard: Clan Haarmek
Bulwark: Clan Avernii
Sniper: Clan Kaargul
Heavy: Clan Sorrgol
Iron Father/Techmarine: Clan Raukaan
What does everyone thing? I’ve been listening to the Wrath of Iron audiobook and figured it’d be nice to see a full Iron Hands Squad.
P.S does the Bionic eye look good on the tactical or should I go with the Mark X artificer.
Regards a fellow Iron Brother
My Iron Hands Veteran Sergeant from Clan Raukan and a follow of Stronos and Ferros
Brothers in Iron I have begun the process of purging my body of the weakness of Flesh and the embrace of the machine. In this process I have gone over the purging of Shardenis by Clan Raukaan in order to better understand how to improve upon the glory of the machine.
Seriously Wrath of Iron has proven so far to be an amazing book. I do have a few questions: Do the Librarians of the Iron Hands have much lore beyond Wrath of Iron and if so where would a brother find them.
Also what’s the current size of the clan companies as a few people have mentioned a retcon of Clan sizes which makes me wonder are they no longer 136 as stated in Wrath of Iron?
Ok given everything that’s happened to the Lion over the past couple of books and everything he’s done in both the heresy and since Son of the Forest I’d like to ask the chapter/legion what would you guys think if a video game developer made a game about the Lion becoming more contemplative or a video game adaptation of Son of the Forest in a manner akin to 2018 GOW.

Tyberos this Tyberos that, let’s finally talk about the MAIN CHARACTER OF ALL THESE BOOK! Or at least one of em lol REAPER PRIME HIMSELF!!! Bail Sharr is honestly way too damn hard on himself, and it’s not really his fault. Being apart of one of the most efficient and brutal chapters of all time, along with being a very high ranking member at that, of course comes with its pressures. But It also doesn’t help that his Chapter Master, Tyberos. Is an extreme micromanager, breathing down every single Company Masters neck with his Red Brethren being stationed in every company.
Sharr became 3rd Company Master aka Reaper Prime after his predecessor Akia was killed during one of their various battles within the war in the deep, most likely by the hands of a Brood Lord, or just simply overwhelmed by whatever they were fighting. With this like all the Carcharodons traditions, all of the equipment was passed down to Sharr, including an ancient relic two handed chain axe, simply known as, Reaper. With this new promotion comes heavy responsibility, including doing red tithes and reapings, which is taking humans from various worlds to be used for labor, chapter serfs or future aspirants of the chapter. It’s a huge responsibility and throughout all three books does his damnedest to uphold the status of this position.
But like many things in life, things happen. Especially regarding their Chapters mysterious gene seed(cough-cough Raven guard) he suffers from many things like a rage full blinding where he loses himself in combat, or another fact that may or may not be caused by the gene seed that creates a sense of self-doubt and even possibly depression. These effects caused him to take some actions later on in the course of the books. I really hope Bail Sharr gets a model in the future, he’s a great character and I hope the series continues

Bless the Curse Brothers, for we can now fight with proper heraldry in Space Marine 2 in preparation for the incoming WAAAGH against Armageddon. When the Orks or any Xenos or Heretics find us we shall great them with fire and bone.
I switched the Red for Khorne Red instead as it looked a lot better. I look forward to seeing Sons of the Maimed on the Battlefields of Space Marine 2
The Flesh is Weak but Deeds Endure. So Said the Primarch Vulkan to our Primarch Ferrus Manus during the Great Crusade. Recently I was reminded of this a few days ago whilist fighting a neurothrope during operations on Space Marine 2 where an Imperial Fist and I believe a Tome Keeper aided me in completing the Operation on Lethal and so in celebration of Patch 13 and the attention given to the Iron Hands I wanted to share this picture that I took.
Happy Patch day to all my brothers in Iron and thank you to everyone for helping further my understanding of what has arguably become one of my personal favourite First Founding Space Marine Chapters.
Ok I know the Tome Keepers are also Space Historians as well as us, but I’d like to ask the chapter are their any other chapters that specialize in record keeping or have a similar Space Historians vibe to them that the Covenant of Fire or Tome Keepers have. I ask because I want to try and reach out to the Tome Keepers over the possibility of doing like a joint recruiting campaign or having like a crossposting book club where we discuss our favourite bits of lore from not only each chapter but 40k as a whole.
As a result I’m also looking for other Space Marines with a penchant for record keeping so please leave any feedback in the comments.
Ok so I was doing a run on Space Marine 2, specifically Inferno on lethal difficulty and was running a Dark Krakens heavy with a Tyrannic war veteran pauldron and we were coming to the final area when we faced a neurothrop and like 20 plus warriors at the same time. Was a tough fight though in the end I claimed the Neurothrope’s tooth as a trophy for the chapter. Then could not withstand the tide for the Tide is eternal as it will always recede and return with the currents and in this case it returned with a vengance as the Xenos struck down one of my brothers, a Sniper who I was trying to protect.
But as you can see I took something in return.
In all seriousness this was arguably one of the best pictures from Space Marine 2 I’ve ever gotten
