Orthodox Brothers

History
Lost through space, a few people kept the turth, Eastern Orthodox Christianity. From all the war and despair they were the only light in the world. They were to be purged. But strangely they made a pact. They manage to keep the truth and also become a succesor chapter of the Salamanders. The reason this was allowed is unknown. They are still at their homeworld Reti. During the 34th millenium a new chapter called Searching ravens came to a planet of their sector. The Searchign ravens were not fond of the Orthodox brothers. They circled Reti and would attack if the sisters of battle didn't stop the war. Since then they have elarn to lvie in peace although there are every now and then close calls for a war ebtween the chapters.

During the 36th millenium Orks manage through a difficult campaing to conquer two planets of the sector. From then on they are at unstoppable war with the two chapters. Strangely the Orks seem to never end.

During the 37th millenium an Eldar craftworld was passing by just when Ork forces were to take control of the whpole sector. The two chapters and the Eldar not as allies fought the Orks in the cost of the destruction of the craftworld. The Eldar inhabited one planet.

During the 38th millenium Imperial guard inhabtied another planet, namign themselves the Guard of worlds. They joined the fights against Orks. For another tiem orthodox Brothers wee to be attacked for the truth. The Imperial guard were stopped by the Searching ravens.

During the 40th millenium some Tau forces trying to expand their emprie and havign failed were force to land at one of the planets of the sector. Since then they fight against the Orks but also atatck the Imperial guard causing this sector to have problem to ally.

During the 41th millenium something unexpected happens. At oen of the worlds of Orks, Necrons awake from their tomb world. The Orks are devestated and the Necrons apepar to the sector to cause trouble. As they make their first attacks a small hive fleet appears just in time to cause a whole war at the sector that would be called War of Atice sector.
