An Imperial Fists Successor Chapter that, well, are pretty blatant at what they are and do. They are literal Iron Knights that besiege enemy fortifications and fire iron bolts at their enemies and ride on iron steeds. Sounds like an appropriate name for those guys. Of course they would be from the Imperial Fists, the most "knightly" of all other Space Marines. Knowing how crazy things get in 40k, it wouldn't be too far off if these guys had literal mechanical horses. But since they specialize in sieges, they probably wouldn't have that many. But you can bet your ass they have Vindicators and Rhinos and Predators, etc. Hell, they might even have a Mastodon or two. Oh and they have a homeworld with two names due to standard quality control.

Part of their chapter went full-on heretic and joined Chaos, becoming the Iron Bretheren. Somehow this isn't surprising. I mean, Iron Knights? From Dorn? Really?
