Mantis Warriors

The Mantis Warriors, also known as the Mantis Legion, is a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter believed to have been raised as part of the 8th Founding in 598.M35, created to help relieve their progenitors, the White Scars, in monitoring and countering the many threats harboured by the Maelstrom Warp Storm in the Ultima Segmentum, and fragments of records indicate it may have been raised during the 8th Founding of the mid-34th Millennium. The Mantis Warriors eventually were ordered by the High Lords of Terra to become part of an alliance of four Space Marine Chapters known as the Maelstrom Warders that also included the Astral Claws, the Charnel Guard and the Lamenters.
