==Background==
They are almost as famous as their progenitors, but are known to quickly abandon war efforts, at grievous cost to their allies, in favour of hunting the [[Fallen]]. As such, most [[Imperial]] forces refuse their help, which causes some conflict with [[Space Marines]] of other Chapters{{Fn|4}}. The {{PAGENAME}}'s numerous abandonments of their assigned tasks, eventually led to calls for the Chapter to be censured by the [[Inquisition]], but this been forestalled due to the opening of the [[Great Rift]]. The giant [[Warp Storm]] has prevented reports of the {{PAGENAME}}'s further misdeeds from reaching [[Terra]], which has allowed the most dedicated of the [[Unforgiven Chapter]]s to continue their secret quest to hunt the Fallen.{{Fn|9a}}
===Organization===
The Angels of Redemption differentiate somewhat from their [[Dark Angels]] fore-bearers, which replaced the the 1st and 2nd [[Company|Companies]] with the [[Deathwing]] and [[Ravenwing]] respectively. Instead, the Angels of Redemption have dubbed their first 2 companies '''Redwings''' in emulation.{{Fn|99b}}
