Space Marines are genetically-enhanced soldiers, created as humanity's ultimate shock troops. Formally grouped as the Adeptus Astartes, it is the Space Marines who have defended the Imperium for over ten millennia. They go to war with the finest wargear the Imperium has to offer, complementing their enhanced strength, agility, and durability. They are steeled physically, mentally, and spiritually to wage endless wars and overcome the most terrible threats. Without fear, they face the greatest threats in the galaxy.

These unwavering warriors belong to various Chapters, tightly-knit brotherhoods that deploy their forces across the galaxy. Space Marines conduct lightning-fast assaults with the aid of transport vehicles, battle tanks, combat walkers, gunships, and mighty artillery. They are the embodied wrath of the Emperor, feared by all enemies as Angels of Death.
