History
The 64th Line Company of the XIVth Legio is most made up of Tactical Squads and Support Units. Having been mostly isolated due to a falling out between their Captain Gurak Sid and 1st Captain Calas Typhon. Spending their time in small bloody compliances at the edge of the Great Crusade. Many in the company believe their supply issues and lack of reinforcement and replacement of losses have come from some manipulation by Calas. The 64th in turn have retained their Dusk Raider colours in honour of their previous captain who was mortally wounded before they finding of the Primarch and interred in a Contemptor dreadnought chassis, this has drawn some condemnation from other companies in the legion. This isn't helped by the company still referring to themselves as the Dusk Raiders.
Supply issues have led to a lack of transport and combat vehicles among the company with what few they have being kept for exceptional circumstances. Instead they advance like old Terran infantry had before early mechanisation, on foot. Prized throughout the company are the suits of Cataphractii war plate they have managed to keep in service, it is seen as a great honour to join one of the squads and fight alongside their dreadnought clad brothers.
The 64th would probably have stayed loyal were it not for a Word Bearer Chaplin by the name of Barzin. His treasonous words lead first Gurak and then the company using the platform of the company's warrior lodge, to side with Horus against the Emperor. A brutal battle occurred when the 64th worked together to exterminate a handful of members Barzin had not been able to sway and a number of attached Imperial Army officers and units. Now they are seeing supplies previously held from them trickle in allowing, whether this will continue comes down to what they can achieve in the name of the Warmaster.
