Their home world, Aleksandria X, is divided into into semi-independent city states termed demoi (Clans). The Chapter Master rules the planet as the Hegemon of the league of city states. Each city state maintains its own Dune Rider regiments and contributes their best men to the chapter. Rough Riders are occasionally recruited into the chapter, but this is rare. Dune Riders are light PDF units maintained by the city states. They favour hit-and-run tactics and light vehicles. The original Dune Riders gained the attention of the Imperium after they defeated a horde of the robotic hunter-seeker watch-dogs that lived on their home world. Their home world is a desert world, with the population having roughly 20th century technology, which is constructed mostly from scrap from earlier ages.
The Sanguine Shields are a successor chapter of the Blood Angels based on the planet Alexandria, located in the Borea system. The chapter was founded in M37 during the 22nd Founding by Brother Alexander, a former member of the Sanguinary Guard. The chapter took part in the Great Culling, where it established links with the Officio Assassinorum and the Adeptus Mechanicus.  
 
A sun totem representing the Emperor's holy light is blessed before every battle. Marines afflicted with the Red Thirst have vents on their armour to expel excess blood in case they absorb too much from their enemies. The skulls of fallen brothers and recruits are carried as mementoes, and may be turned into servo-skulls. The preserved hearts of fallen brothers or foes may also be carried, as the chapter believes it is where the soul resides.
