Editing Red Talons

The Red Talons are a second founding successor chapter of the [[Iron Hands]].

Thanks to Forgeworld, Horus Heresy: Massacre has finally shed some light on these guys. Though it's not explicitly stated, anyone with half a brain cell can figure out that they were founded by Iron Father Autek Mor and his Morragul Clan (Mor's flagship was called the Red Talon for [[God-Emperor of Mankind|God's]] sakes). The Morragul Clan was noteworthy as being composed of some of the most bloodthirsty and hard-ass marines in the X Legion, so much so that even [[Ferrus Manus]] found them to be distasteful. Read: these guys were founded by the marines that even a Primarch known for [[Awesome|beating a dragon senseless and drowning it in lava with his bare hands]] considered a bit too extreme.

Outside of their founding, not a whole lot has been written about these chaps. What is known is that during the War of the False Primarch they, along with some other [[Carcharodons|friendly]] [[Flesh Tearers|fellows]], wiped out eleven entire chapters that had been declared Traitors. Yeah... these guys don't play. Also went on a killing spree during the Moirae Schism when other Iron Hands didn't pick the right side of that little miniature Heresy.
Also of note is that, if the codex artwork is to be believed, they are organized along Codex lines, rather than the Clan Council system of the other Iron Hands successors. Also of interest is that they are never mentioned as being particularly tech-obsessed. I suppose this should be taken as a given what with their heritage and all, but still it seems that [[Rip and Tear]] seems to be more of their thing than The Flesh is Weak.

tl/dr: Iron Hands successors that look and act like Blood Angels.
