Imperial Space-Marines

The Imperial Space-Marines are the most elite and feared fighting forces of the Holy American Empire. The primary unit of organisation is by Legion, a self-contained army fully equipped with its own transport, non-combatant support staff, etc. There are around a 10 Chapters, each comprising a thousand Space Marines. There are far too few Space Marines to form the Empire's main military forces; instead they operate as highly mobile strike forces. They are entrusted with the most dangerous missions, such as lightning raids behind enemy lines, infiltration, and tunnel fighting. Through selection, training, and conditioning, Marines are physically, mentally, and spiritually superior to any other Imperial soldier.
