Editing Sable Swords (section)

====Still badass====
Upon arriving in Obsidia to take over from the Astral Knights, the second iteration of the Sable Swords were confronted by the last surviving members of the now 'fallen' chapter. The Sable Swords 1st Company Captain Daegan [[awesome|faced down]] the Astral Knights Dreadnought, Brother Thade, who was understandably miffed at his chapter being given up for dead by the Imperium. Worse, the Knights were to be dispossessed in favour of a new, yet untested chapter.

Eventually, Daegan convinced the remaining Knights to go out in a blaze of glory, not unlike Amhrad and his badasses. Daegan: "Take a ship from here and ply the stars as the Astral Knights once did, before they set down roots in stone and iron...Fight on in the Emperor's name until you can fight no more, and when that day comes, know that in death your duty has ended."

Not long after their founding, the Sable Swords have proved themselves worthy of their illustrious forebears. Their honours include a series of decisive victories over the [[Tau]] Empire, liberating Augura, a planet which had been an important strategic point for Tau forces during their Third Sphere Expansion.

The Sable Swords have continued the proud traditions of their Astral Knight predecessors, facing the Necrons on the tomb world of Eldritch, and carrying out an exterminatus.

The Sable Swords bailed out the [[Mechanicus]] when they were assaulted by a [[Ork]] Waaagh! on Rogue's Spire.

A Sable Swords company led by Captain Daegan helped defend the Forge Word Vondrak Prime from Hive Fleet Hydra, fighting the [[Tyranids]] alongside the Imperial Knights of Houses Cadmus and Hawkshroud.
