Do you have a suggestion for another 40k group/faction/individual that you'd like to see that isn't on the list? Leave a suggestion. One per person, please.
Explanation: The Flesh Tearers is a Loyalist Space Marine Chapter and the smallest Second Founding successor of the Blood Angels, once numbering only four full companies of Astartes at their nadir before the Devastation of Baal.
They are true servants of the Emperor of Mankind though their heavy affliction with the genetic flaws of their Primarch Sanguinius and the resulting brutality has led to their investigation on charges of heresy by the Inquisition. They have been cleared of suspicion at present.
Like their progenitors, the Flesh Tearers are known for their bloodthirsty nature in battle, bad temper and are feared for the flaws like the Black Rage and the Red Thirst that they carry within their gene-seed.
Fun Fact: Earlier editions of the Flesh Tearers' history states that they spent thousands of years as a Crusading Chapter after their formation and that it was a Chapter Master named Amit who finally settled the chapter on the world of Cretacia.
However, Amit appears as a Captain of the Blood Angels Legion in the Horus Heresy series. Amit has a vicious and savage reputation, even by the standards of the World Eaters and his oath brother, Kharn. Indeed it was during his frequent fights in the World Eaters gladiatorial pits that Amit earned his nickname the "Flesh Tearer".

2 people can be called Amit. I nean it wouldn't be the first time Blood Angels had the same leader over and over again, looking at you Ishidur Ossurian...

Honestly I do wonder sometimes why the Imperium isn't more Khorne-aligned. Loads of empires through history have aligned themselves with war gods, why should this one be any different?

One of Coletta's lines from 40k Darktide is "Blood for the Emperor! Skulls for the Golden Throne!" Really though, the conjuration of the emperor held together by belief and psyker souls is one of obsessive "Purity"

The Emperor is every kind of god. They don't war for the sake of carnage, they war for divine right, their ideals of justice and holiness. Khorne is everything they hate in the sense of war. Crude, brutish, without grace or purpose, meaningless.
TheMilliner
Because khorne is a very specific type of war god that doesn’t really DO anything except blood and skulls and battle, and war might CONTAIN that stuff, but it isn’t JUST that stuff. Its why Khorne’s groups rely so much on numbers and fail so often, he’s just kinda shit at everything that isn’t direct battle. Plus, The Emperor spent most of his reign trying to remove religion from humanity, but ended up ironically being worshipped as a god with ALL the aspects of the Chaos gods and more.

I would assume, to them, the Emperor is a war god. At the onset of the Great Crusade, and probably before, the Emperor promoted more secular thought, but for some, he became their god. However, speaking as someone outside that universe, if I were to pick a war god, it wouldn't be Khrone. I'd said with the Aeldari and pick Kaine.

As someone who likes the Eldar a lot... Kaine is kind of a little bitch

Im still not entirely certain that Kain isn’t Khorne playing a trick on the Aeldar
