A question on a possible chapter and would it work as a homebrew
My idea is a chapter called the rejected ones
A chapter that is loyal and follows most of codex with a few large changes.
One the chapter is built from those that choose or are offered to leave the chapter since they feel they don't fit in or wish to serve elsewhere. They are also trained to fill any and all battle roles to allow them to adapt use any weapons any tactics.
Within this chapter there is no scout company they only seek out those who wish to leave there chapter.
They follow the idea that each company is made up of 99 men. They leave a space empty as a symbol. The idea that a primach or another chapter master can lead a company as a personal gaurd or to allow them to do a unquie mission.
Each company is lead by a counsel of 9. Each one can and must be able to trace there geneseed back to a specific primach. One for each loyal son. This is a part of the message of competency and using the one with the best knowledge and skills for the mission/operation
