The '''Marines Errant''' are a [[fleet-based]] [[Space Marine]] Chapter, operating at the fringes of galactic space.

==Engagements==
===Charadon crusade===
In 698.[[M41]] the Chapter was part of a combined Space Marine force led by [[Marneus Calgar]], consisting of the [[Angels of Absolution]], [[Lamenters]], [[Silver Skulls]], and the [[Ultramarines]]. During this seven year crusade the force inflicted a series of major defeats on the [[Ork]] empire of [[Charadon]] which delayed the invasion of Waa-Argluk for thirty years.
===Badab War===
In 904 M41, during the [[Badab War]], the Marines Errant were recalled from the [[Eastern Fringe]] to reinforce the [[Fire Hawks]] Chapter. However, they soon found themselves fully occupied protecting Imperial ships in transit.<sup>2</sup>
===Fall of Vilamus===

In the last years of M41, [[Huron Blackheart]] of the [[Red Corsairs]] set out to steal large amounts of gene-seed. [[Vilamus]], the [[fortress-monastery]] of the Marines Errant, became a target due to their relatively small garrison, subsequently losing nearly all of their gene-seed.<sup>3</sup>
