They're Chaos [[Space Wolves]]. For this very reason, the not-chaos Wolves have pretty much disowned them and claim absolutely no connection to them and probably maim anyone who makes the connection.

No seriously we know less about these guys than we know about the Alpha Legion. Knowing Games Workshop, they probably forgot about their existence. In an edition that expands upon the forces of the [[Chaos Gods]]. Reintroducing Chaos Wolves would make the alcoholic furries less [[Mary Sue]] than they currently are. One would think that Magnus at the very least would have used these guys to rub it in their faces. But alas Games Workshop isn't that smart.

They look cool though.

==History==
[[File:Skyrar's_Dark_Wolves_Chaos_Marine.jpg|thumb|250px|A Skyrar's Dark Wolves Heretic Astartes.]]
From what is known about the Dark Wolves, they were first sighted cruising around the Fenris Sector before their descent into [[Chaos]]. They were assigned an impossible task but failed (it hasn't been recorded how they fucked up but apparently the mission took them to the Abyss). While traveling around the Abyss they more than likely started becoming tainted by Chaos. They have been in at least three major raids on Imperial Space, one of the invasions was eventually halted by the Space Wolves... and that's about it. Ever since, Skyrar's Dark Wolves have been missing, <strike> probably planning a very complex plan about destroying the Space Wolves</strike> AS IF Space Wolves (even former Space Wolves) can plan anything more complex than RIP AND TEAR, they're probably hanging around Khorne's palace drinking and punching Bloodthirsters or something. The difference between them and their [[Space Wolves|loyal cousins]] is clearly a deep and profound one.

The Dark Wolves have participated in at least three major invasions of Imperial space, but only one has been mentioned in lore: the time they allied with the [[Daemon Prince]] of Khorne [[Tallomin]], the self-proclaimed "Prince of Princes", and leader of the 3rd [[Black Crusade]] in the late 38th Millennium. This invasion was eventually halted by... oh would you know, the loyal Wolves, furthering the suspicions about the warband's origin.
Recently they've clashed against the [[Red Hunters]] during the rise of the Beggar King.

==Combat Tactics==
According to other sources they have a massive arsenal of vehicles which they use during combat, the most notable one being the [[Fellblade]] Aegisvisir. All their vehicles have runes similar to Space Wolves that run around the sides and barrels of them. Also, they might be close combat specialists because FUCKING CHAOS WOLVES!!!!

Warhammer 40K: Darktide

'''Darktide''' is an upcoming coop first person shooter made by [[The End Times: Vermintide|Vermintide]] developer Fatshark. The game will likely have the same gameplay as Vermintide, only in space and facing Chaos cults in an Underhive.

==Setting==
The game takes place on the Hive World of Atoma Prime, where a group of [[Nurgle]] worshiping assholes called "The Admonition" are plotting to take over the planet from the city of Tertium. The Inquisition has sent a small squad of expendable convicts (you guys) to figure out what the hell is going on and stop the city from falling to Chaos.

==Gameplay==
The game excitingly is one of very few 40k video games to feature the Guardsmen in the starring role and not the Space Marines, and will likely play similar to Vermintide, only probably leaning more towards the shooty parts of the game. As such it will likely be much closer to the L4D2 style of play than Vermintide. The game will also probably feature a class style of character system like in Vermintide, and given that an [[Ogryn]] is featured in some concept art, we may get an interesting list of characters to pick from.

More will come as more info comes out, but Guardsmen fans rejoice as they are put in the spotlight for once.

As of the game play trailer, playable classes appear to be a Missionary, an Ogryn, and two flavors of Guardsmen (a male ranged specialist wearing a Kasrkin facemask and a female who looks like a Sergeant and/or melee specialist). The classes are also apparently very customisable, both visually and gameplay wise with lots of interchangeable weapons for classes and while no weapons have been specifically mentioned, plasma weapons, hellguns, long-las, ripper guns and flamers seem like obvious choices for different classes.
The trailer also showed off Poxwalkers, traitor guardsmen, Hounds of Xaphan (or chaos juiced attack dogs in this case) and fucking Plauge Ogryns as enemy types so even though FW disconnected the Renegade and heretic line, they will hopefully live on in the game.

Fatshark is already doing stupid stuff i.e. appeal to the COD kiddies by making the making the Ogryn a short ranged melee class. So you'll be shot in the back like a cannon fodder bad noob if the game forces you to play as one.
