Aegis Dragon Chapter Organization
The Aegis Dragons Chapter is Seperated similar to most chapters, however they are split into 7 Main Covens.  Each Coven is a Seperate Fighting Force, and the chapter has none of its Covens in Reserves.   There is also three seperate covens or specialty covens that are capable of fighting on their own, however they usually compliment the other covens.  Also their is one small specialty coven that usually aids the others, but still fights on its own even when aiding.  The reason being is the coven is designed for complete assaults and speed in mind, and thus is used as a flanking or quick response strike force as opposed to an actual battle force and thus doens't have the great coven or specialty coven status.

        Dreads
        Rhino's/Razorbacks
        Speeders(very limited numbers on theses)*
  
    *note:  the Command squads are usually taken from one of the dragon Circles, usually the veterans of the coven itself, and the Speeders are very limited numbers in each great coven, and are usually manned by the assault squads.


Specialty Covens
      The Coven of the Dragons is composed of nothing but Terminators, and every one in the chapter is veterans of other covens.   This Coven is always attached to the 1st Great Coven, but is often several units are attached to other covens when needed.
     The Coven of the Shadow Dragon is nothing but scouts, this coven is also always attached to the 1st great coven, and is the recruitment coven for all the other great covens.  When the marines from this coven become full marines then they will transfered to one of the Great Covens.  Till then they are assigned on the recon and patrol missions.  This coven can be fielded on its own, however, only for stealth missions.

  The Coven of the Thunder Dragon. 
         This coven really has no set number, usually the ones assigned to this coven are those who have shown an obession with hand to hand combat.   This chapter has alot of veterans, but those who are careless to use the terminator armor(which is rare) or are just extremly excellent in melee.  This coven is nothing but assault units with jumppacks, and speeders.
            HQ choices must take a Jumppack
            Elite is made up of Land Speeder Tornadoes
            Troops are made up of Thunder Assault troops(special rules to come)
            Fast Attack is nothing but Land speeder squadrons
            Heavy Support is nothing but Land Speeder Typhoons
