History
The 67th Chapter of the VII Legio Astartes, known as "The Scions of the Crusade" had arrived in the Australis Ultima Sector only one and a half years prior to the outbreak of the Horus Heresy. Sent by Lord Dorn and under the command of Marshal Battuta, the 67th had the primary mission of recruiting the next generation of Imperial Fists for many of the far-flung companies operating in expeditionary fleets through Ultima Segmentum. The plan was to draw recruits from a series of worlds in the Australis Ultima sector that had been tithed temporarily to the VII Legio and then deploy them as initiates against Ork threats which remained in the sector. The bulk of the Astartes of the Chapter not assigned to training duties would be erecting fortifications on many of border worlds.
Supplied primarily for training missions and fortication, the 67th was only minimally equipped with heavy armor and specialist weapons. Still, the 67th numbered over 1800 Astartes, and an impressive fleet detachment including the battle-barge Rihla, as well as several strike cruisers and the associated frigates, freighters, and supply ships.
The 67th had a long history of recruiting and training generations of Imperial Fists. Throughout the Crusade, the 67th would stay behind on conquered worlds which had potential to serve as recruitment worlds and establish training-fortresses.
