The Warband of the Broken Aquila, formerly the Night Lords 10th Company, is a warband of Chaos Space Marines, of the Night Lords Legion if we still had to point that out. They're the guys you see in Aaron Dembski-Bowden's Night Lords trilogy.
It was known as the Warband of the Exalted when it was headed by the Exalted/Vandread. Its name was changed informally to the Warband of the Broken Aquila when Talos took over, because his breastplate has an Aquila that was broken with a hammer to signify that they piss on their old ties to the Imperium. Geddit?
It's unknown whether they still exist in the present 40k verse, as only a few members of the original 10th company survived the events of the books. They're now led by an extremely young new prophet named Decimus, who seems to have inherited a more stable and powerful version of Talos's precognitive abilities.
