The '''Invaders''' are a [[fleet-based|space-bound]] [[Codex]] Chapter chapter of unknown origin.

Delighting The Invaders excel in the carnage following planetary subjugation, crushing resistance through massed aerial and orbital attack, the '''Invaders''' have proven their prowess again and again in the rapid subjugation of planetary governments. Such ruthless and swift Their tactics means that they rely heavily require reliance on their Scout Squads and Tactical Squads squads to secure landing zones and staging areas , while their squads of Vanguard Veterans veterans and Terminator Squads Terminators crush centers centres of resistance..³

The most famous engagement of the Chapter chapter occurred in 852.[[M41]], when they launched a direct assault upon [[Eldar]] [[Craftworld]] [[Idharae]]. Despite suffering horrific casualties during this bold attack, the '''Invaders''' were successful; Idharae was left a ruined and desolate hulk. But the Chapter chapter was not done with the [[Eldar]]. Forty-three years later in 895.[[M41]], with the '''Invaders''' still rebuilding, Craftworld [[Alaitoc]] launched a retaliatory assault on the Chapterchapter's homeworld of [[Ogrys]]. Without the numbers to defend their fortress-monastery, the '''Invaders''' were quickly overcome. Only three Companies companies survived the attack, and the '''Invaders''' are thereafter became a spacebound Chapterchapter. Still under-strength after their all-out assault, and the retaliatory attack, the '''Invaders''' Chapter chapter is reported as operating in a support role to the [[Novamarines]] on the doomed planet of Skyfall.²
