How to create a faction

The only universe in which there are more subfactions than Warhammer himself is that of its fanfictions. You too can add your own. From a Chaos Warband to one of the countless Ultramarine successor Chapters, your own Dark Eldar Raiding Party or Orc tribe or even a custom Forgeworld or Imperial Guard regiment. Anything is possible. Custom factions are complex and often have cultural or military characteristics that sets them aside. Also it is important to follow the general rules of character creation or read them here.

Structure the article as follows:
