Line 364:
At the end of the rebellion, they were granted the Emperor's forgiveness, subject to undertaking a hundred year crusade - a virtual death sentence for the Chapter as this would entail the inability to recruit. The Mantis Legion's homeworld was forfeited to the Badab War-loyalist Space Sharks.
 
Since then they have been treated with suspicion and are under constant scrutiny. Before they rebelled they had an above average induction rate for the [[#Deathwatch (Warhammer 40,000)|Deathwatch]], but since rebelling only a handful have been accepted. They are no longer banned from recruiting by the [[Inquisition (Warhammer 40,000)|Inquisition]], although the chapter size is still dangerously low. The chapter was birthed from the Mordriana System, near the Eye of Terror, though they have had their right to a homeworld revoked and so currently reside in their space fleet.
 
Mantis Warriors who are veterans of the Tranquility Campaign are formed into Sniper Squads known as 'Tranquility Sniper Squads'. These marines are known widely for their use of the Sniper Rifle and their yellow and black tiger-stripe armour.
