It is a universe of war. The monolithic Imperium of humanity is locked in mortal struggle with the enigmatic Eldar, mobbing Orks, traitorous Chaos and terrifying Tyrannids. The genetically enhanced forces of the Space Marines and the conscripts of the Imperial Guard wage massive battles on war torn planets. There is no hope of total victory, and always a fear of total defeat. This is not a war of conquest. It is a war of survival.
Warhammer 40,000 is more of a hobby for me than my favorite game. Games Workshop has an annoying habit of changing the entire rule system every few years and the plot line is rather static. Technology never improves (it might actually have decayed over time) and every new edition brings with it yet another Space Marine vs. Ork campaign on the Imperial forge-world of Armageddon.
This page is dedicated to the Ultramarine Chapter of the Space Marines, the force I commonly play. The Ultramarines are the leaders of the Adeptus Astartes when it comes to military regimentation. Following the Codex Astartes (the standard Space Marine regimentation manual, written by Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines, that defines Marine order of battle and genetic bank procedure) to the letter, the Ultramarines are well versed in military science and strategy. Their blue armor can strike fear into all but the most vile foes. Using their mighty Thunderhawk gunship to transport them from orbiting motherships into the fray below, the Ultramarines are truly a mobile force that uses a combination of creative tactics and traditional regimentation to win the day.
