The Magma Hounds are a Chaos Space Marine warband.
Overview
Originally known as the Knights Excelsior, they were lost and corrupted during the Abyssal Crusade. During the Crusade, in the Void Galathamar, the Knights Excelsior fought desperately against Daemon Engines on the distorted and disorientating world of Temporia. When they eventually managed to escape back to their ships, the Warpsmith Valadrak created an electricity-Daemon and set it loose upon the Knights' fleet. The Machine Spirits of the Space Marines' ships rebelled, and with their fleet in disarray the Knights were overrun by pursuing Daemon Engines. Less then a year later, the renegade Magma Hounds emerged.[1]
