[[Image:CrimsonFistsRogueTrader.png|right|thumb|160px180px|Original depiction of the Crimson Fists{{Fn|16b}}]]
*{{Endn|Note One}} The Crimson Fists first appeared on the cover of [[Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader]] in 1987{{Fn|16c}}, and were featured prominently beside what would soon become First Founding Chapters such as the [[Ultramarines]], [[Blood Angels]], and [[Space Wolves]]{{Fn|16b}} as one of the primary [[Space Marine]] factions. While the identity of the hulking six-limbed [[Xenos]] which looms above the Crimson Fists are depicted fighting is unclear,{{Fn|16c}} later renditions of the same art substitute an [[Ork]] [[Gargant]].{{Fn|47}}
: As subsequent lore was established, however, the Crimson Fists were given an origin as [[Second Founding]] successors to the [[Imperial Fists]], somewhat demoting their standing{{Fn|1}}. Their Chapter colours and symbol have remained largely unchanged since their first appearance, with the most notable change being the addition of a crimson ring encircling the fist and the black field within it{{Fn|16b}}{{Fn|22c}}.
