The Vengeance Knights chapter was created during the Ultima founding from Imperial Fists gene-stock, as one of many that would go on to participate in the Indomitus crusade. At the closing of the crusade, they were tasked with reinforcing the route between Terra and the former location of the Cadian Gate, establishing operations in the Rhoda's Reach sector.

The Vengeance Knights are known for their strict adherence to the Codex Astartes, and for their drive to attain mastery in all forms of combat. They believe that the only thing standing in the way of perfection is human vice and desire for independence.
The Vengeance Knights chapter was part of the relief force posted to Rhoda's Reach following the fall of Cadia and the opening of the Cicatrix Maledictum, and were one of three chapters that formed the response force during the desecration of Selene.

((Big lump of models today, took a few more days than I had planned))
((Honestly kind of getting these out of the way in order to progress onto more interesting things))
((This is as big as this force will get, they have become rather a chore to paint))
((This is most of the marines side from dark imperium))
((Plus a few reivers kitbashed from the multi-part and easy to build boxes))
((Most of these were completed some time around mid last year))
((The only exceptions being four of the intercessors and all three reivers))
((Which were painted entirely in the past week))
That's a pretty sweet collection of Vengeance Knights completed - though I can also see why you might want to take a break from them. I can barely get through a squad of SM without needing to take a decent break from that particular army, so I'm always impressed when I see so many looking so good and unified!
