History

The 64th Line Battalion 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 away from the limelight of their Primarch and his favoured officers. Many in the Battalion 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 the finding of the Primarch and interred in a Contemptor dreadnought chassis, this has drawn some condemnation from other companies in the legion. This was not helped by the insistence of Gurak that they continue to refer to themselves as Dusk Raiders

Supply issues have led to a lack of transport and combat vehicles among the Battalion 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 Battalion are the suits of Cataphractii war plate they have managed to keep in service, among the 64th it is seen as a great honour to join one of the squads and fight alongside their dreadnought clad brothers.

With the events of Istvaan III and the sanction by the Emperor these loyal Terrans find themselves outcast by their Legion that never cared for them. They have pledged to bring the Emperors vengeance too all Traitors who follow the Warmaster. Undersupplied their small crusade group does its best to be a thorn in the side of the Warmaster.
