        The Salamanders were the original
"green" marines, and the Iron Warriors, the
Blood drinkers, and the White Scars were all
big chapters too, appearing in fluff info, painting
 guides, and 'eavy metal sections.
Don't hear much about them any more, but
has anyone done an army using some of
these "forgotten" chapters? They've mentioned
the 'Scars some lately with E40K, but that's about
it.
