The Crimsons Fists are a second founding chapter of the Imperial Fists, formed by the younger and more level-headed members. Noted for their crimson gauntlets, which inspired from a ritual with Rogal Dorn and a Imperial Fist successor Chapter Master having a manly handshake with Dorn with cut palms, signifying blood brotherhood between them. Though the name sounds more like a particularly painful sex act of slannesh that ends in internal bleeding, but whatever there still cool.
They got fucked over during an Ork invasion on Rynn's World, their home planet, when a stray missile fired from their orbital defense grid struck their own fortress. The damn thing somehow missed its original target, bypassed ALL of the fortress' void shields, and hit the armory directly. The chances of this happening are about as likely as rolling 100 d20s and only getting 1s on all of them. (If you're curious, the odds of that occuring are one in 1267650600228229401496703205376*10100. Seriously.)
Note: This was a standard missile fired from an orbiting defensive platform, it normally should have done NOTHING to such a mighty stronghold beyond a small crater. How did something this random happen? Well, the missile hit a piece of mountainside that was really super-duper weak (and somehow the Crimson Fists didn't know about it) and went deep down into the mountain. The missile detonated the Crimson Fist's weapon stockpile, causing their chapter a lot of hurt.
(The missile was actually fired from one of the fortress's anti-ship weapons bastions, and the void shields had to be dropped to fire them. It was also the type of anti ship missile that formed a melta field over the warhead to bore through ship armor before detonation, but still, terrible luck.)
But its okay, because the Crimson Fists still managed to beat the Orks with only two-hundred and twenty-eight marines, 100 of which were killed before an Imperial fleet came to Rynn's World to screw up the Orks, and a Land Raider appropriately named Rynn's Might that somehow managed to skillfully pilot itself using only its machine spirit and take out a good chunk of the invading Ork horde, including the warboss, with hellish accurate weapon fire. It then tried to run over the Orks and when its treads were clogged with bodies and its doors smashed open, it was entered by Lootas seeking to take it after which it vented the reactor and killed them all with hot plasma..

Also known as "Mexican Marines" because their chapter master (Pedro Kantor), and their crazypants 3E captain Cortez had Spanish first nams. Because Mexico is obviously the only spanish speaking country in the world. (And for the fact that the REAL reason that said Land Raider fucked the Orks' shit up was because it was filled with the remaining 200 battle brothers, and you thought buses in Asia defined carrying capacity.)
