==Background==
The '''Iron Fists''' are a codex-compliant [[Space Marine]] Chapter. There is no background on the chapter, except that their [[Storm Shield]]s (or "power shields") take the form of "shields moulded molded with a medieval gauntlet"<sup>3</sup>. Their power armour armor is painted a light blue-grey with gold arms. Their symbol is a gold fist or gauntlet upon a field of light blue-grey.
==Notable BattleBattles==
==Lithrax VI==
The '''Iron Fists''' and the [[Blood Ravens]] Chapter fought against a huge [[Eldar]] strike force assaulting the world of [[Lithrax VI]]. The two Chapters were seriously outnumbered. When all hope seemed lost, the [[Blood Ravens]] reluctantly agreed to bring nearby reinforcements. For five days the '''Iron Fists''' fought alone, holding the [[Eldar]] at bay. [[Chapter Master]] [[Kastal Verchen]] held a breach in their lines, slaying two Exarchs single-handedly. The [[Eldar]] prepared to launch their final assault on the beleaguered Space Marines when reinforcements finally arrived. The sky filled with [[Blood Raven]] Drop Pods. Soon the two Chapters fighting together altered the course of the battle and destroyed the [[Eldar]] army completely. After the fighting, the [[Blood Ravens]] praised the [[Iron Fists]]' courage and tactical prowess.  <sup>1</sup>
