*This chapter is based on a existing chapter created by GW.

The Founding of the White Unicorns is unrecorded. The White Unicorns are almost entirely absent from Imperial records. The Chapter was first recorded in the works of the Administratum field notary Corwen Quilpin in the 3rd Century of the 40th Millennium. The Chapter was next referenced only a few decades later fighting alongside the Blood Angels. The White Unicorns are noted for bearing all manner of holy relics, and ancient patterns, of arms, armour and vehicles. They appear to have inherited the most revered arms and armour, preserving them, and bearing them down the through the ages against the foes of the Emperor of Mankind.

The White Unicorns are known for their extensive of shield and weapon combat styles from swords to lances. It appears that every ballte brother knows how to combine the defensive capabilities of a shield with the offensive power a weapon gives to produce ; charges repelled, enemy squads crushed under foot, gun emplacement over run, objectives taken and battles won.

Tactical Marines of the White Unicorns chapter use a Shields simular to ancient law enforcement of Terra except these shields have a slot for the marine's bolter to slide into allows the marine to use his shield and fire his Boltgun at the same time.

The White Unicorn chapter are known for being able to field a large amount of the sought after MK 4 Maximus pattern power armour which confuses members of Adaptus Machanicus, as if widley known chapters such as the Blood Angel and Ultramarines cannot supply but a hand full of their warriors with this rare armour, then how can the White Unicorns field so many.

The white Unicorns field two variants of the Mk 4 Power Armour the first is the standard version of the armour featuring almost no visable alterations baring the emblem of the White Unicorns.

The second variant is a modified version of the MK 4 Maximus which is mostly used by Veterens of the chapter to show they have proven themselves in the heat of battle, it feature the well known crest and "horn" on the helmet and the rest of the armour receives other astetic modifications such as triming to the leg guards and other areas.

It's A classic, man. Not to mention considering how piss poor Adeptus Mechanicus is as developing new tech, the mk 4 is probably not as outdated as one may think. plus it's so pretty.

mk6 has renundant sensors and is sthealthier
but mk4 has the best protection capabilities (after term armour only mk3 has better frontal protection as the mk4 but mk4 is best overall)

Well, it's not the best. It is inferior to the Mark VI and the Mark VII, while the Mark VIII blows it out of the water, all in regards to protection. The Mark IV was mainly produced because it was cheaper, not because it was better.

The MK III has the best frontal protection, but has less torso protection than the MK VIII. It's used for frontal assaults.

The MK IV is no longer produced, due to a combination of losing some of the tech as well as due to it being inferior.
