Adeptus Astartes, The Angels of Death

In Tribute to the Adeptus Astartes, The Angels of Death, The Space Marines. Audio is “Preliator“ by Immediate Music. Credit to all the artists who made these great pictures. I included most of my favourite space marine pictures in this tribute. The Angels of Death: Overview: The Adeptus Astartes (commonly known as Space Marines, and colloquially as Angels of Death) are the most elite and feared fighting forces of the Imperium. The primary unit of organization is the Chapter, a self-contained army fully equipped with its own transport, non-combatant support staff, etc. There are around a thousand Chapters, each comprising a thousand Space Marines. There are far too few Space Marines to form the Imperium'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.
