Space Marines
A Brief History: -
These are the bio-enhanced, armour clad super warriors of the human race. Space Marines fight in units called 'chapters'. Each chapter can have special ability's to use on the battlefield, this can make them very good at specific tasks in combat, but not so good in others. An example is the Blood Angel Chapter who are a good close combat army but haven’t got as many heavy weapons, where as the Dark Angel Chapter prefer to shoot it out from long range.
