The Guardians of the Covenant are a Successor Chapter of the Dark Angels, of an unknown founding.

圣約守衛(wèi)是黑暗天使子團(tuán)，組建時(shí)間未知。

Background背景

From an unknown Founding but certainly of Dark Angels heritage, the Guardians of the Covenant have fought most of their battles in Segmentum Pacificus, focusing in particular on supporting Crusades into the Halo Stars and Veiled Region. The Guardians gained special honors for their deeds during a Lelith Incursion, saving an entire Sub-sector from the foul xenos races subjugation. The Chapter is also known for its extreme monastic nature, constantly studying the teachings of the Emperor and their Primarch, Lion El'Jonson. Reflecting this attitude, their vehicles and armour are usually covered in illuminated religious texts extracted from tomes sacred to the Adeptus Astartes.

圣約守衛(wèi)戰(zhàn)團(tuán)組建時(shí)間未知，但他們確實(shí)是黑暗天使的后裔。圣約守衛(wèi)主要在太平星域作戰(zhàn)，尤其重視支持對(duì)于光暈群星和隱蔽地區(qū)的遠(yuǎn)征。由于他們?cè)诋愋畏N族莉莉絲（機(jī)仆：不是黑豆芽那位老婆婆，這個(gè)xenos種族名字就叫莉莉絲）入侵時(shí)期的事跡：從邪惡的異形種族的征服行動(dòng)中保衛(wèi)了整個(gè)次節(jié)區(qū)，他們獲得了特殊的榮譽(yù)。該戰(zhàn)團(tuán)由于其修道士般的風(fēng)氣而著稱，他們不斷學(xué)習(xí)帝皇與原體萊昂 艾爾 莊森的教導(dǎo)。作為對(duì)于這種態(tài)度的反映，他們的載具和動(dòng)力甲通常覆蓋著摘抄自典籍啟發(fā)性的宗教條文，這些典籍對(duì)阿斯塔特修會(huì)而言是神圣的。

One of the 3rd Company squads - Squad Vyston - have a legendary reputation throughout the ranks of the Unforgiven: they are often referred to as tome burners or pyroclasts, for after the battle they root through the datastacks and archiviums of shocked allies, consigning volumes deemed heretical to a blazing conflagration.

該戰(zhàn)團(tuán)第三連的一支小隊(duì)——Vyston小隊(duì)擁有在所有不可饒恕者部隊(duì)中也有傳奇般的名譽(yù)：他們通常被稱為典籍焚滅者或火石，因?yàn)閼?zhàn)斗結(jié)束后，他們查閱了震驚的盟友們的數(shù)據(jù)和檔案，將被視為異端的文件付之一炬。

They took part in the Siege of the Fenris System in 999.M41.

他們?cè)?99m41參加了圍攻芬里斯星系。

fandom補(bǔ)充

Like their fellow Unforgiven Chapters, the Guardians of the Covenant follow the Dark Angels' pattern of organisation, and so are considered to be in partial compliance with the Codex Astartes.

如同他們的不可饒恕者兄弟們一樣，圣約守衛(wèi)遵循暗黑天使的組織結(jié)構(gòu)，因此被認(rèn)為部分符合阿斯塔特圣典的要求。

This includes possessing formations similar to the elite Deathwing and Ravenwing, although they are not named as such. Though these elite formations have performed admirably, they have not garnered the recognition of their Dark Angels' counterparts.

他們也保有了類似死翼和鴉翼的精銳部隊(duì)，不過它們有其他命名方式。盡管這些精英編隊(duì)表現(xiàn)出色，但他們沒有獲得黑暗天使同行的認(rèn)可。

Like the Dark Angels, the Unforgiven Successor Chapters also have a clandestine group, comprised of the Chapter's elite and senior commanders, who possess knowledge of the Fallen and of the true events that occurred on Caliban. In the Guardians of the Covenant, this Inner Circle is known as the "Secret Order."

如同黑暗天使，圣約守衛(wèi)也有秘密團(tuán)體，由戰(zhàn)團(tuán)精銳和高級(jí)軍官組成，他們掌握這墮天使的情況與卡利班的真相，這個(gè)內(nèi)環(huán)組織名曰“隱秘修會(huì)”。
