The Aurora Chapter is one of the many successor chapters of the Ultramarines produced during the second founding, they specialize in massed armored assaults and are reputed to have more Land Raiders and Predators than any other chapter in the Imperium. They have been involved in a number of campaigns, in recent note the Zeist Campaign against the Tau. Having more tanks than God requires having a sufficient source of parts and ammunition, and so the Aurora Chapter has their home world of Firestorm which is a forgeworld so large it can produce more parts and ammunition than several high profile Mechanicus worlds.
Cool Shit
Once upon a time ago, the tread heads lost a beloved Land Raider in the xenos/heretic infested Jericho Reach. The Deathwatch marines recovered the tank but found it beyond repair, however knowing the Aurora Chapter had a massive, power armor piercing, hard on for their tanks decided to do their battle brothers a solid by taking its main axel and reforging it into a thunder hammer by the name of Remembrance. It was thought that doing this would allow the destroyed machine to avenge its destruction, and every marine that has wielded the weapon in battle swear it strikes with the force of a tank, which is Awesome.
