- Regimental Command Squad – (Regimental Standard, Medic, Vox Operator, Primaris Psyker (Divination), Colonel Vlad Jakobe)
- 20 Techpriest Enginseers

1830 Personnel 
++4 Guardsmen per artillery vehicle (Driver, Loader, Firer, and Vox Operator) dispersed into 3 Artillery Companies++
- 3 Commissars
-3 Company Command Squads (Company Standard, Medic, Vox Operator, Bodyguard armed with Laspistol & Chainsword, Company Commander)
-4 Chimera APCs (for Regimental & Company Command Squads) 12 Guardsmen (driver, main gunner, secondary gunner)
-Basilisks (1200 Guardsmen, 300 Basilisks) – per Artillery Company (400 Guardsmen, 100 Basilisks) – 10 squadrons per company (40 Guardsmen, 10 Basilisks)

447 Personnel 
- 2 Commissars
- Heavy Weapons (200 Guardsmen, 100 heavy weapons) – 20 squads (10 Guardsmen per squad, 5 heavy weapons per squad)
      •        5 Mortar squads
      •        5 Missile Launcher squads
      •        5 Heavy Bolter squads
      •        5 Autocannon squads
- Infantry (245 Guardsmen): 
 - 5 platoons (225 guardsmen) 45 Guardsmen per platoon – 1 Command Squad (Platoon Standard, Medic, Vox Operator, Weapon Specialist armed with Plasma Gun, Platoon Commander) & 4 infantry squads (Sergeant, Heavy Bolter team, Flamer, Vox Operator, 5 Guardsmen)
 - 2 Sniper teams (20 guardsmen) 5 Snipers, 5 Spotters per team

- Colonel Vlad Jakobe - Old, patient, and highly observant. Vlad can tell you exactly how long his Tanna has been brewing just by the smell of it, and he can tell you exactly how many cultists the last artillery barrage killed just by their screams. Armed with a Bolt Pistol and Power Sword. Wears Carapace Armour beneath a thick duster coat. A tobacco filled pipe can normally be seen poking from his shrivelled lips, buried within his ushanka.
- Techpriest Jarosh Yeramichael - Quite dull and uninteresting, Jarosh leads the Mechanicus contingent of the 80th Artillery, and does so with the same lack of emotion as a toaster. Rumour has it that beneath his thick crimson robes, is in fact a washing machine that developed sentience. Not many washing machines have power axes, however.
- 1st Company Commander Nolan Deltoi - Not much point in bothering to write him a profile, he'll be dead soon. The mantle of 1st Company Commander has been one riddled with misfortune and generally bad luck. Commander Boloz died after the wind blew a grenade right back into his hands. Commander Ramesh met an unfortunate end when he forgot to tighten his seatbelt, and fell out of a moving Valkyrie several thousand feet above the surface. The Emperor only knows what death has in store for Deltio.
- Commissar Grigori Petrenko - Once a native of Vostroya, Grigori managed to find a place in the 80th after losing his legs to a Necron Cryptek. Had it not been for one of the 80th's Lascannon teams taking the Xenos off it's feet, Commissar Petrenko wouldn't be alive today. Although not confirmed in official records, it is rumoured that Grigori executed the Lascannon team for stealing what was rightfully his kill. Commander Jakobe denies this insistently, although the Vostroyan regiment they fought alongside at the time did seem incredibly keen to get him off their hands. Commissar Grigori is currently attached to the Artillery Defence Battalion.
- 2nd Platoon Commander Mikhal Le Noir - Exemplary battle performance places Mikhal far above his peers in Platoon management and battlefield effectiveness. If there's anyone capable of forming a solid defence against the regiment's adversaries, look no further than Commander Le Noir.

Imperial Guard Light Infantry Regiment
13th Segin-Rangers "Lucky Bastards"
9.269 men/1630 Ground Vehicles/57 Aeronautica


-=+[  Leadership/Characters  ]+=-

Name:Colonel Viclo "Old Iron" Sharp
Age: 189
Faction: Imperial Guard/13th Segin Rangers
Rank and Force Type:Colonel/Light Infantry Regiment
Primary Skills:
-Tactical Genius
-Lifetime of experience in waging war against the servants of Chaos
-Inspiring Leader
Planet of Origin:Segin
A living Legend on Segin, and with an Impressive Service Record, Sharp commands the 13th Segin since almost fifty years, and even with his 113 years of service, he is far from retiring. Serving his way up the ranks, he was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant for extraordinary bravery, as he saved of a leading general during the Echo-Campaign. Finding himself as his new protege Viclo soon would replace his Platoon with a Company, and serve as a Captain during the later stages of the war. The oldest living member in the whole of the company, some say that his Iron will is the reason for his long life. True or not, he still displays his Iron in battle, and insists on leading from the front. Still, his age, and a butchered Rejuvenate Treatments take their toll on his body, and he isnt the warrior he used to be back in his days.


Name:Senior Commissar Rembrash val Kepp
Age:39
Faction:Imperial Guard/Commissariat
Rank and Force Type:Senior Commissar/Light Infantry Regiment
Primary Skills:
-Iron Will and Body
-Can Inspire or enforce Bravery
-Capable Fighter
Planet of Origin:Malfi
The Segin spirit and the independent way of thinking of these people have lead quite a few problems with the Enforcers of Imperial Loyalty. More then one Commissar has fallen Victim to a "Tragic" accident beyond enemy lines. Others are "turned", and embrace the "Segin" way of war, becoming pragmatists themself. 
Rembrash himself was send with the Stormtrooper detachment to act as the Senior-Commissar, and to make sure that no further "accidents" take place. A grim and humorless man, he has shown more then once, that exemplary executions are his was of enforcing the emperors will. Lucky are the ones who simply get off with a Flogging.


Name:2nd Lieutenant Jesaya "Toasty" Costa
Age:29
Faction:Imperial Guard/13th Segin Rangers
Rank and Force Type:2nd Lieutenant/Light Infantry Regiment
Primary Skills:
-Stealth
-Close Combat 
-Ranged Combat
-Demolition
Planet of Origin:Segin
It needs a special kind of man to hunt Orks and a special kind of crazy to enjoy it. Jesaya is that kind of man, and that kind of crazy. Running away from his parents Farm at the age of thirteen, he joined a band of hunters, who got a good bounty for every Ork head they brought in. In an fair fight in close distance, a human is no match for an orc, yet the Segin people had a lot of time to perfect the art of Ork-Hunting. And even among these skilled people are those who become true masters of the art. Jesaya became such a master, before he came of age. Earning enough to buy himself his own part of land, he instead used the money for one week of endless drinking, whoring and gambling, and ended up without a single coin. Seeing it as the Emperor´s way of punishment, he instead joined the PDF, and was selected to join the 13th. 
Losing his cocky arrogant ways after his first taste of battle, he displayed great courage during the Rebellion, and soon reached the Rank of Sergeant.
It was during a raid on an enemy Fuel storage, that he and his section found itself surrounded and outnumbered. Having his orders, he commanded his men to make a run for it, while he would cover up their retreat by blowing up the complex. In the promethium fueled fire a whole enemy company found its end, yet as the Rangers took the ruins of the complex, they found a badly burned, yet still breathing Costa. Waking up, he told about a Vision from the Emperor himself, and that he wasnt done with him yet.
Promoted into the Rank of an 2nd Lieutenant, and with his own Veteran-Platoon, he is driven by the desire to proof himself worthy of this second chance.

"Let us be the last thing they shall never see!" Common saying of the Segin-Rangers  

The Segin Rangers are a Force specialized in Operations beyond enemy lines, Long-range Raids and Guerrilla Warfare. Preferring the Lascarbine over its heavier brother, the Las-gun, mobility is seen above armor. As such the Flak-armor has been cut down to grant the wearer the best possible mobility. This of cause has dropped the protection value of the armor, yet this is a sacrifice the Rangers are willing to make. 

Special weapons and Heavy weapons arent used as much as in other regiments, at least on the paper. Stealing or "borrowing" from other Regiments and Imperial assets has become virtue of the 13th, and the officers turn a blind eye to any "found" equipment that the soldiers might come up with. After all, few ask for the origin of an flamer when the unit is about to attack an bunker. 

Ranger Platoon - (6 Rifle Sections, 3 Support Section and 1 Platoon Command) - [65 Soldiers]
Rifle Section - (5 Rangers with Vox[Armed with Mk.II Lascarbine],Corporal or Sergeant[Armed with a Mk.IV Lasgun]) - [5 Soldiers]
Support Section - (3 Heavy Weapons [2 men each,Rocket-launcher/Mortar/Heavy Stubber], 4 Specialists[Flamer/Grenadel Launcher]) - [10 Soldiers]
Platoon Command - (Lieutenant[Personal Choice of weapon], Vox, Medic[Both Armed with Mk.II Lascarbine], 2 Specialists[Flamer/Grenadel Launcher]) - [5 Solders)

Ranger Company - (1 Company Command, 5 Ranger Platoons, 1 Veteran-Ranger Platoon, 3 Scout Sections) - [430 Soldiers]
Company Command - (Captain[Personal Choice of weapons], Vox, Medic[Both Armed with Mk.II Lascarbine], 7 Veteran-Specialists[Flamer/Grenadel Launcher/Melter/Plasma-gun]) - [10 Soldiers]
Scout Section - (2 Snipers[Armed with Mk.III Long Lasrifles], 2 Spotters[Armed with Mk.II Lascarbine] and 6 Rangers, Vox[Armed with a Mk.IV Lasgun]) - [10 Soldiers]

Light Infantry Regiment - (20 Infantry Companies and Regimental Command) - [8.610 Soldiers]
Regimental Command - (Colonel Viclo "Iron Smirk" Sharp, Commissar Garusso, Primaris Psyker Ragnar (Biomancy), Regimental Banner, Vox, Medic, 4 Veterans) - [10 Soldiers]

*Segin Scouts serve as long-range Recon, as well as sniper support. 
**Veteran Platoons and Sections are identical in layout to normal infantry sections/platoons at least on the paper of the Adeptus Munitorum. Truth is that the Veterans often "Borrow" Equipment from other Regiments, or use other means to acquire their needed tools of destruction. Trained in the art of Infiltration and Commando Operations, they are seen as the elite of the Segin army, and the fist of the 13th´s.

The 13th has a history of working at High-risk operations against the enemies of the empire. Proofing themselves to be worthy of the attention of the Adeptus Munitorum, Colonel Viclo had to call in a lot of all the favors that he had earned in his life, to be granted an Stormtrooper Detachment. Despised by the common Segin Ranger as "Glory Boys" or "Toy Soldiers", he knows about their worth, and has his reasons to request their presence in the coming Crusade.

Stormtrooper Detachment - (6 MT Platoons, 1 MT Command) - [191 Soldiers]
Stormtrooper Command Squad - (Medic,ST-Captain,Vox, 2 Special Weapons) [5 Soldiers]
Stormtrooper Platoon - (3 Stormtrooper Fireteams, 1 ST-Lieutenant[Acting Commander of the Platoon]) - [31 Soldiers]
Stormtrooper Fireteam - (10 Troopers, ST-Sergeant, 2 special Weapons,Vox) - [10 Soldiers]

Listed here are the people who are basically notable support staff. Their work is generally less about going to the front and more about ensuring that the regiment stays motivated, dutiful, equipped and in fighting condition. They tend to float about to whatever company or platoon are in need of their services.

Regimental Staff/Advisors*
10 Commissars
30 Priests

QC's Staff**
9 Engineseers
30 Mechanicus Servitors
21 Field Chirurgeons
13 Medicae Servitors
20 Sister Hospitalis, Order of the Burning Rose


*List does not include administrative and miscellaneous staff such as Scribes, Logisticians, Cooks, etc.
**The QC's Staff is primarily a back line unit, operating out of field hospitals and small tech shrines, while capable of defending themselves, should they be in open combat, its a sign something has generally gone wrong.


-=+[  Vehicles  ]+=-

The vast plains of Segin are harsh and unforgiving, and hold an resilent Orc Population as well. Lacking the means to produce tanks, or the Infrastructure to quickly move Infantry, the Segin people have adapted to this kind of war by using what few Vehicles they could produce to a full extent. Highly mobile, the Vehicles of the 13th are further stripped down in armor, to make room for fuel and to reduce weight. 

While the Recon/Reaction Detachment has it´s own fixed Crew, with years of experience under their belt, the Light Transport has no crew. Instead each Ranger is expected to know how to drive and maintain the proper rituals to the Machine God to keep the Vehicles running. During a long range-raid, each Rifle-section is granted a Jeep, while the support Sections are split up between the remaining seats. It is no secret that many of the Vehicles also have "Borrowed" Equipment on them, yet hidden well enough that it takes quite an inquisitive Inspector to find it. 

During the Echo-Campaign, the Segin Rangers were supported by Navy-Assets for the first time. This union turned out to be extremely efficient, and the lacking Firepower of the Rangers could easily be provided with the Air-support of the navy. While de-jure still part of the Navy, the Aeronautica and its Crew have began to display a growing Loyalty to the Regiment. Under the Supervision of 1st Lieutenant  Lyn Gro´Vas, the coming  Crusade will show, if the Joint Operation will again turn out to be a success.       
Recon/Reaction
130 Scout Sentinels - (Crew:1) - [130 Sentinels and 130 Crewmen]
200 Tauros Venators - (Crew:2) - [200 Venators and 400 Crewmen]

Light Transport
600 Segin Pattern-Jeeps - [Crew:-], Unarmed

TOTAL: 1630 Ground Vehicles, 57 Aeronautica and 659 Crewmen


-=+[  History  ]+=-

The Origin of the 13th lie in the time of the Echo Rebellion. Recruited from men who had lost their Families to the Traitors of their Home System, eager to take the fight to them, it was easy to find enough men for fifteen regiments. Leaving their Homeworld behind, the Regiment was send from one Meat-grinder to the next, suffering horrific casualties yet never brought any shame over itself. 

Serving through the whole Echo-Rebellion, the 13th has an history of fighting Traitors, and the servants of Chaos. Not a heretic rebellion at first, the secessionists grew more desperate over time, and fell to the promises of Chaos. The horrors of war soon grew to true, warp-born Nightmares. Each world took an bigger tribute in blood and lives to take, and what was seen as a short campaign to enforce Imperial Justice over a world of Traitors, turned into a sector-wide war. Sons grew up on Segin, never knowing their fathers, to be drafted into the Guard. They would fall, or grow old in war, only to see their own children take up the rifles from their hands. Seven times the 13th was wiped out, and eight times the flag of the smiling Skull was taken from the field of battle, to be brought back to Segin, as the Regiment was recreated. 
An unknown world at first, the People of Segin soon won the respect of other Regiments fighting in the war, and even Astartes couldnt deny their "mortal" bravery. 
The 13th that takes part on this crusade is combat proven, and has just been transferred from a operation to crush the last hold-outs of the Echo-rebels. The servants of Chaos are an old enemy, and next to the Orks, the most hated enemies of the Segin people.

Imperial Guard/Penal Legion
1st Redemption Legion "von Dagmar-Regen´s Personal"
37.640


-=+[  Leadership/Characters  ]+=-

Name:General Eugen Julus Ernst von Dagmar-Regen, Duke of Neo-Thuringia
Age: 146
Faction: Imperial Guard/House Von Dulché´s/10th Redemption Legion
Rank and Force Type:General/Penal Legion
Primary Skills:
-Heartless Leader
-Endless Ambitions 
-Skilled Manipulator
Planet of Origin:Dis
Born as the third Son of the third most powerful house in the sector, Vane grew up with the luxuries only a fraction of humanity can take for granted. Yet from a young age, an ambition grew inside him, that turned out to be a blessing and a curse at the same time. While it drove him to great highs in improving himself, it also turned out to turn him bitter and jealous. Not entitled to become the prime heir for his fathers lands and titles, he instead pursued a military career. Yet as the choosing for the regiments of the PDF came, that Dis would offer as its Tribute, he found himself not on the list of the picked officers. Enraged, he demanded a duel from one of the picked, lowborn officers. Little did he knew that the man he picked was a hardened Veteran of countless gang-wars. The duel lasted for three minutes, and would leave Vane terrible disfigured. Making a laughing stock out of himself, he left Dis to the Throne-world of Celestine V. While he lacked the skills of an warrior, he was indeed quite a capable courtier, and spend the next 150 years working his way up. Soon he would find himself in the Governors Favor, and would become one of his personal Enforcer of Rule in the sector. Soon his name would be feared , as he became a butcher of countless, lowborn and noble alike. Everyone who stood against Ravenstein would soon face the Iron boot of his "Bloodhound". Yet, now with the Invasion at hand, and his home-world and family gone, many would mistake this for a horrific catastrophe. Yet Vane knows when an opportunity opens! Buying himself a Generals Rank, paying in Money and Favors, he then took command of four newly found Regiments of Penal Troopers. Finally feeling close to the power he desires, he has higher ambitions now, as he dreams of becoming the new ruler of Dis himself...or the Subsector, should Ravenstein die during the defense.


Name:Blackcoat CaptainHammon Blarr
Age:29
Faction:PDF/Blackcoats/Imperial Guard
Rank and Force Type:Blackcoat-Captain/Penal Legion
Primary Skills:
-Tough and capable Fighter
-Merciless leader
-Cunning Instincts
Planet of Origin:Pontius Secundus
Ravenstein´s Rule never was as solid as he would have his subjects believe, and as such, he was in desperate need of a cadre of enforcers to secure his position. The Blackcoats would serve this goal, with an undying loyalty to Ravenstein, von Deuchbaug...and then the emperor. 
Picked from the streets as young orphan, Hammon was raised in an training camp to become a true Blackcoat. Drilled and Brainwashed, he soon would become a loyal Tool to enforce the Governors Rule of the Subsector. Send out, he would take part in brutal Campaigns to crush rebellions, punish unruly Nobles, and strike Terror into the hearts of the sub-sectors enemies. Now, with the great defensive war at hand, he and the other Blackcoats are dispatched to serve as enforcers in the remaning PDF, especially in the newley found Penal Legions. Cold and Efficent, the newly appointed Captain Hammon will get the job done...like always.


Name:Trooper 101-Delta-901231
Age:23
Faction:10th Redemption Legion
Rank and Force Type:Penal-Trooper/Penal Legion
Primary Skills:
-Fearless psychopath 
-Close Combat
-Ranged Combat
-Demolition
Planet of Origin:Dis
Born in a darkest Underhive, the man that would become 101-Delta, was sold by his mother for another shot of "Black Ink" before he even learned to talk. Sold to a street Doc, he soon was turned into a Guinea pig for all kinds of combat-drugs. Close to death countless times before he was ten years old, he found his chains unlocked one night and beat his captor to death, before escaping into the middle hive. Before he was fifteen he had killed more men then he could count, and before he was twenty he had turned into the best assassin in the whole middle hive of Dis. Leaving a trail of bodies behind, he found himself bored to be contained in a single hive, and looked for other "hunting" grounds. Traveling through the whole Sub-sector, he found himself on the wrong side of a Black-coat shotgun, and was arrested. Yet his death penalty was suspended, and instead he was simply send into one of the countless overcrowded prisons of the sub-sector. And while many feared the first taste of battle, as they were driven into the shuttles, and got a collar snapped around their neck, he couldnt wait for it.


-=+[  Troops  ]+=-

"Lisen up, Scum! This Objective will be taken! I dont care how much of you meatbags die in the process, you will push on! Any man i see stopping, will die! So take a good grip on your collar, and remember that there is only one way, forward!" Handler Jackson, moments before the retaking of Hill 12 

With war coming to the sub-sector, unlike any before, any source of manpower has to be drained. Every Prison in the Sub-sector has been emptied, and each able man has been drafted into the "Redemption Legions". Each soldier has an massive metal collar around his neck, with an explosive load to blow the head off, should the soldier try to disobey an order. Armed with Spare Las-rifles, and little to no armor, these men are little more then cannon fodder, to be send in waves into the meat-grinder.

The Handlers are mostly former Prison wardens, ex-PDF members, or simply Thugs who were considered Loyal enough to lead the men into battle. Armored in Flak, with a shock-baton and a Laspistol, they also have an detonator, which can be used to set of one, or all collars in a Section.

Other members of the Legion are PDF Members of regiments who were loyal to Ravenstein, but who´s regiments had suffered to many casualties to remain in active service. Serving in the "Block" Sections, or as officers, they are motivated by the promise of privileges, high-risk pay, and intimidated, by the Blackcoats.

Before the Invasion, the Blackcoats served as the secret police and army of Lord Governor Konrad von Ravenstein. Formed and lead by Eugen Julus Ernst von Dagmar-Regen, they were the iron boot of the Governor to crush any rebellious thought against Ravensteins rule. Purges of Political Enemies, Atrocities committed against civilians and acts of pure terror were their daily service to the stability of the Sub-sector. 
Yet with the Sub-sector at war, and an open rebellion on Dis, they were directly integrated in the PDF, at least on paper. Serving as something quite similar to a regular Commissar, the Imperial Authorities frown upon their presence, yet accept it, at least for now. Dispised by the regular troops as "A poor mans Commissar" their loyalty lies first with Konrad von Ravenstein, then Eugen Julus Ernst von Dagmar-Regen and then the Emperor!

Imperial Guard Infantry Regiment
36th Londor Union Guard Regiment
3,409 Personel and 198 Vehicles

-=+[  Leadership/Characters  ]+=-

Major Branton Rendel
Branton is a child of a noble house on the Hive World of Hilgoth, born with great charisma, he spent his youngest days charming adults for candy before growing up and charming women to get in their panties. Even while he was studying to be a commander on Londor as is common practice in the Londor System. His appearance betrays his true age, appearing no older than his late twenties despite being well over sixty and full of vigor, no doubt rejuvenation treatments thanks to his noble status are helping it. In battle he is known for his rousing speeches and surprising wit and cunning, able to look surprisingly deep into situations, not exactly what one might expect of a former playboy.

Lord Commissar Victorius
A rare lady commissar whose name is truth for she has lead many a regiments to victory. Her record is surprisingly bloodless (in regards to the executions). Adopting the regiment’s culture, her own outfit is much more reserve than the traditional red and black of striking commissariat uniforms, now largely more khaki and has forgone the hat, showing off her blond braids, although she still has a red sash over her body. The rest of the Commissars in the regiment have similarly changed their uniforms into a much more reserve color scheme with sash, letting their hair loose. Its theorized that such behavior has allowed the Commissars assigned to the Londor Regiments to be much more embedded and feel more apart of the regiment instead of some random outside officers.

QC Jethero Langly
The Quartermaster-Chirurgeon is a fairly unique position found in the Londor regiments. Born of a desperate need after Chief Chirurgeons kept dying in combat, it was ultimately decided that it would be the Quartermaster who would take on the role. The Quartermaster already looks over all of the logistics and supplies of the regiment, including the medical equipment. However, the QC as its commonly called simply directs medics and Field Chirurgeons as they often lack medical knowledge.

QC Langly however is not one of said people, his years of warfare and his family’s medical knowledge letting him operate on the wounded with little qualm. He even has a bionic arm which has various medical and surgical implements to assist him in this. He’s always stressed out about the resource situation and worries about a lack of enough stockpiles of gear.

Sargent Gilden Lancelot
Distinguished veteran of innumerable battles; he was actually transferred from the remains of the 23rd when they fell in battle. He’s a very down to earth and pragmatic guy although prone to fits of rage as he snaps somewhat easily. Lancelot is well known for both his stubbornness and his embleshment of the past. Although he will often claim he’s out fisted an Ork or slew a Carnifex with a knife, his ability to lead charges is without a doubt one of his most appealing features along with his refusal to die that gains him the attention of both the rank and file and the officers.

-=+[  Troops  ]+=-

The troops of the Union Guard are a mixed force, requiring to be able to storm enemy positions while also holding out in defensive positions. Support and Heavy weapons tend to lean on the simpler side given the mass production quotas for anything not a "vehicle-idol  of the Omnissiah" on the Forge World with things such as Heavy Bolters, Missile Launchers, Mortars and Flamers; the Melta gun is about the most complex hand held weapon produced and even then its only in small numbers and given exclusively to more elite and experienced troops.

As a whole, the Union Guard are renowned for their stubbornness and determination fueled by grit and faith. They've faced down more than a single dire last stand and they'll surely see more, fighting to the last with their lasguns and grenades, even with pistols, knives and fists if they must. The bravery of the soldiers are often attributed to the complete lack of danger sense their officers show. Even though the officers are typically recruited from various wealthy or influential noble families, there is a high degree of apathy to danger, officers brazenly walking about on the field of battle like they're on a stroll in the park. Of course, such habits of apathy tend to get people killed but there is nothing quite like seeing an officer with a sword and a fine metal chest piece calling you to arms.

*Heavy Snipers are a unique weapon of Londor, capable of accurately placing an autocannon shell on target over hundreds of meters. These specialized marksmen are given special training and gene therapy in order for them to be able to use these armor piercing precision rifles.
**Veteran Platoons and Sections are identical in layout to normal infantry sections/platoons but boast Meltaguns instead of Grenade Launchers; all Veterans are trained with Grenadier Doctrine and as such are often referred to as Grenadiers.
***Battalions have no official commanders and are instead simply an administrative division within a Londor Regiment.

A symbol of an enduring friendship and cooperation, the Ogryn Sections are often used as loyal body guards and dutiful protectors who lay down their lives to repay the debt they bear to the former Union even if they themselves don't remember what it is exactly. While not an "official" part of the regiment, it is rare to ever see a Londor regiment without some Ogryns in some capacity.

Ogryn Battalion - (4 Ogryn Companies) - [160 Soldiers]

*All Bullgyrns are equiped with Slabshields and Grenade Gauntlets or Power Mauls of some form.

Listed here are the people who are basically notable support staff. Their work is generally less about going to the front and more about ensuring that the regiment stays motivated, dutiful, equipped and in fighting condition.

-=+[  Vehicles  ]+=-

Curtsey of the Forge World Ymir V, the regiment is blessed with a good stock of vehicles to use, most of them based on the Chimera or Macharius Chasis. The scout vehicles are somewhat unique as despite their delicate and frail nature, the Union Guard uses them as vehicle hunters, mounting autocannons, missile launchers and the only lascannons to be found in the regiment.

The slightly heavier vehicles (the Chimera derivatives) are used to support advancing infantry, even firing while moving. Hellhouds destroy cover and burn anyone foolish enough to be caught in its burning gaze while Chimeras mow down enemies with blasts of its multilasers; the Griffons are an interesting case as they can bombard and area while on the move (with accuracy to be expected of such acts). However, even though crews of Griffons are able to get off an impressive volume of fire, Londor crews are drilled in something known as the "Mad Minute", letting them release massive amounts of mortar shells while stationary. More than one enemy has been surprised to discover that the rain of death they suspect was from an entire detachment worth of artillery pieces came from a single battery of Londor Griffon Carriers. Amusingly enough, all Londor vehicles have in built tea makers so the troops can safely make tea on the go. It seems that even the local Mechanicus enjoys their natural beverage, somehow.

-=+[  The Londor System  ]+=-

The Union Guard are unique in that they do not technically hail from a single world in their eyes, but a single system, the Londor System that contains the following planets:

Hive World Hilgoth is were the vast majority of recruits are drawn from although its not uncommon for the other planets to pitch in their own volunteers or conscripts. Many rank-and-file soldiers are a mix of drafted ex-gangers and volunteers while the noble families of the Hive World send their children off the military academies to become officers for the regiment and is seen as a great honor and even a duty of the noble houses to lead the regiment’s soldiers to glorious victory.

Forge World Ymir V is the obvious producer of the weapons and gear of the Union Guard and has a very interesting dimorphism in production thought. While they churn out thousands of lasguns and grenades and the likes, the tanks and armored vehicles are painstaking built with extreme care, each step being blessed and inspected throughly.  

As such, many of the Chimeras and Leman Russes built for the Union Guard work remarkably well and are hailed as some of the best vehicles in the Imperium but the true crown jewel is the Macharius heavy tanks, typically of the Vanquisher or Vulcan variant, that are seen as the best example of this loving care the Forge World puts into its vehicles.

Agriworld Lumarine produces vast amounts of edible plankton that are processed into Soylens Viridens rations although not quite as bland and tasteless as there are some species of plankton which farmers have managed to breed for some extra zing on occasion. The world also produces a good part of the foodstuffs for the system itself and thus also has grox farms and industrial, multi-level grain, corn, fruit farm facilities. This is also where the Londor's all important tea rations come from where industrial plantations grow Erral Bushes and harvest their leaves to be turned into Erral Tea.

Qork’s Rest is named after a famed Ogryn Bullgyrn who held a bridge from a swarm of Orks by himself for over a day before finally dying to his wounds. Its population is primarily that of the Ogryn variety which provides the Ogyrn Auxiliaries to the regiments of Union Guard. the moon isn’t actually the “homeworld” of the Ogryns in the Londor System; the true homeworld was actually an even more distant rock that was destroyed by a rouge astroid. The Union managed to rescue 98% of the abhuman population and transporting them to the moon that would become Qork’s Rest, earning the loyalty and trust of the tinier humans and have dutifully served as their auxiliaries. 

The moon is also something a bit of a holy world to the Ogyrns who live on it as they see it as a bit of a Shrine World to an “Ogryn Saint” and have even come to remember bits of the tale due to countless retellings of it by the Priests to inspire zeal and duty in the abhumans. In addition, the harsh terrain of the moon makes it an ideal training ground.

Londor is just a relatively normal civilized world that acts as the figure head of the entire system. Back in the Union of Worlds, the capital was located on this planet but now it plays a much more administrative role, housing the primary HQs of various Imperial organizations in the system like the Arbites and the Munitorum. Its a jack of all trades and assists where ever is necessary; if the Forge World is falling behind in production, it’ll help pick up the slack, if the Agriworld needs more hands, a group will be sent over.

The planet also has small populations of Ratlings who often find work all over the system as cooks for nobles, specialized industrial workers and of course, regimental snipers.

-=+[  History  ]+=-

To know the history of the Londor Union Guard, one must first know about the Londor System comprising of the Hive World of Fertach, Forge World Charon V, agriworld  Lengrowth, the Ogryn world of Qork’s Rest and the imperial world of Londor. In the days of the Age of Strive, the system was lucky enough no to regress too much and still stay someone interconnected as a loose confederation of plants called the “Union of World” lead by a high King.

When the Great Crusade kicked off, the Emperor resorbed the Union of Worlds who had joined without a fight under the sole condition that for the purposes of the Imperial Tithe, the system as a whole would be considered a single planet and was willing to pay additional in the Tithe to make up for this treatment and their request was accepted by the High Lords of Terra and the Emperor at the time.

Of course, at this time the system looked little of what it does today. It was once an incredibly flashy unit of drilled line infantry known as the "Londor Foot Rifles". The Foot Rifles marched into battle with colorful banners and loud drum lines and horns. Many of these regiments where sent to battle and many were sent to die aimlessly with the System soon coming to the conclusion that the Foot Rifles were becoming of less value as the war they thought they fought was not like anything they thought. They would issue sweeping changes and reforms to the Foot Rifles, but the men on the ground had long since changed their ways.

Those who survived had long abandoned the ways of square formations and the Thin Guard Line, having become accustom to getting their proud uniforms dirty not because they were careless while digging trenches, but because it would prevent their bright uniforms from standing out. There was already a shift in battle thinking and doctrine on the field and many veterans rejoiced when they learned that newer regiments would be free of such ridiculousness. After many centuries of going under the name of "Foot Rifles", the Londor regiments were rebuilt with new tactics, more practical uniforms and flexible tactics and was named the "Union Guard". In addition to the new infantry, newer tank regiments where raise with the local forge world being given the STC to the Marches Vanquisher and Vulcan, both of which have seen use in almost all regiments regardless of designation.

The system as a whole is renown for its unity and cooperation with each other with several recorded instances of the Magos of the Forgeworld Charon V actually doing more than staring at old kitchen appliances everyday. As such whenever a regiment of Union Guards are raised, it is considered a system wide affair with each world providing something to the newly created regiment.

Raised recently the 36th is by no means a veteran regiment of elite warriors but they are no strangers to war, hardened and toughened in the heat of battle. They faced off against many a foe such as the Ork Warboss Razkill God'unta, the Tau Commander Shas’ka Jien’Un (Star Soul) as well as various traitor forces such as the renegade 49th Talus Regiment, the Yangorn 81st Armored Regiment and the 402nd Miltri Rifles.

Leaders/point of views:
Canoness Superior Veruya
Veruya first began her career in the Adepta Sororitas in the order Hospitaller, in which she obtained a great degree of medical knowledge. After a rear field camp was overrun by heretic forces and she was forced to aid in fighting them off Veruya caught the eye of a Canoness. She was later offered a position in the Orders Militant. Something she had always wanted, but had failed to enter in the original trials. She proved a surprisingly competent soldier. Studying numerous manuals of war-- later expanding her skill in tactics and strategy after being taken under the wing of a veteran Celestian. It would be years later before she became a Canoness herself overlooking a minor order of her very own. Veruya cares deeply for her fellow sisters under arms and is known to value the lives of non-combatant citizens of the empire. Looking to offer aid to them where and when she can. She sees it as her duty as a daughter of the Emperor to look after his subjects. Caring though merciless to her foes. Canoness Superior Veruya is a remarkable warrior, tactician, and a stern believer in the light of the Emperor. So strong and pure is her faith she has proven to overcome the odds countless times. Even in her current state she still strives to uphold the will of the Emperor whenever she can. 

Canoness Preceptor Katolis
Canoness Preceptor Gwynira
Mistress of Repentance and Palatine of the Order Essael
Seraphim Superior Amarya

Since before its inception the Order of the Steel Maiden has adapted the use of close air support units that disrupt enemy movement and cause enough disarray to allow their fellow sisters into close combat. Most pushes begin with a rush with dedicated transports that bring advanced units into range and remain to offer heavy support. The Orders colors are simple dull or darker grays and they favor fast hit and run tactics with small surgical strikes with elite fighting fast attack teams like Seraphim who often target soft and vital enemy targets.

Planet: We shall see!!

Sectors: We Shall See!!

Force History: The order began as a splinter force of Order of the Valorous Heart on a desert world with a major hive city. Their original goal being to clean the region of a large ork hoard and reclaim a lost relic. The war took the better part of two standard years until Canoness Superior Veruya finally defeated the ork warboss Big Hamma’ Klog.Though she was greatly wounded in the process-- becoming mortally wounded. Once they had secured the world they order went about aiding in the hive worlds recovery. Despite their eventual success and best effort, the people suffered greatly during the war. The contingent of sisters took the guilt of every life they failed to save unto themselves and vowed to make up for the failure if the Emperor would but grant them a chance to do so. This mindset of penance has cause a large degree of Repentia to both flock and appear within the Sororitas stationed on the planet. It would be several years before they heard of the crusade called out to reclaim the Varulius system. After requesting special permission from the Ecclesiarchy Veruya founded a new order and started to build up her forces to join the crusade for the Varulius system.

Faction: Chaos

Force Type: Traitor Guard

Force Name: 84th Varulius Planetary Defense Force (The Savage Crows)

Colonel Melchior Siegenhausen:
Once the leader of the Savage Crows gang, Melchior Siegenhausen rose to a leadership position during the 'Elder Crisis' of the lower hive cities after the former leader of the Savage Crows was poisoned by the Dark Elder. When the Imperial government of Varulius II started sweeping the various gangs of the lower hives into a PDF infantry regiment, Melchior volunteered the services of both himself and his gang. Rewarded for his patriotism (Being the only gang that stepped up willingly without a show of force), Melchior was put in charge of the newly formed PDF regiment. 

Arranging for the other gang leaders who were a threat to his leadership to be dealt with by the regiment commissars while making a show of trying to protect the rank and file gangers from lesser punishments, Melchior earned the loyalty of his command while eliminating possible internal strive in the same stroke while painting the Imperium Command as the 'bad guys'. 

Working with his sub-commanders, Commander Siegenhausen managed to use a purge of mutants from the lower hives as a chance to earn the good graces of the local members of the Adepta Sororitas and even earning the prestigious honor of the right to work with them in the event of an invasion... A position that he would use to betray and slaughter the Sororitas to a woman in the onset of the Chaos invasion in the name of the Lord of Change. The offering pleased his patron enough to earn him a pair of sharp, bladed limbs that have grown out of his sides under his normal arms.

Major Helwig Luden:
Helwig was a member of the Daft Ripper Clan before it was absorbed into the 84th PDF. While not the biggest or strongest of gangers, he proved to be quite intelligent and rather charismatic... while being far to self concuss of himself to want to be in charge of everything. These traits made him useful to Melchior and thus he raised the man to his second in command. Worship of Tzeentch shortly followed. 

Helwig was a key part of earning the favor of the Adepta Sororitas due to the fact that he was well read enough that he could easily discuss the finer points of the local dogma of the Imperial Creed with them without offending, which went a long way towards securing the regiments position near the sisters when the chaos invasion began.

Captain Marx:
Formally of the Savage Crows and a sub-commander of Melchior before they joined the PDF, Captain Marx has long been Melchior's favored captain... with good reason. The man has always managed to get favorable results while knowing his place in the chain of command.

*Truck being a catch all term for any vehicle that has been salvaged and gotten working again, often with make shift 'improvements' to armor and possibly weapons.

Planet: Varulius II

Sectors: Sector 1

Force History:
The 84th PDF regiment of Varulius was originally formed from the various gangs that existed in the lower levels of the systems hive cities to, in theory at least, protect the planets of the system from invaders. The gangs in question had been weakened during the 'Elder Crisis', in which a Dark Elder raiding party had managed to infiltrate the lower hive; While the cost was high, the gangers were able to drive the sadistic slavers away but were unable to prevent themselves from being forced by the Imperial government into a PDF regiment.

Melchior Siegenhausen, leader of the Savage Crows and the only gang leader to step up willingly at the chance to serve the Imperial government was placed in command as Colonel. After some basic training and a minor purge of the more troublesome elements of the new PDF regiment by the commissars, the 84th PDF regiment of Varulius was sent into the lower hive to purge the mutant population that had been growing there. 

The purge itself was quite successful due to the knowledge of the terrain and the stealth tactics that the 84th employed, but it also served to open up rather pleasant relations with the local branch of the Adepta Sororitas. As the relationship between the two sides improved, the 84th was granted the honor of being patterned with their devote sisters in the event of a planetary invasion.

When Chaos invaded the system, the 84th Regiment used the plans that had been made with the Adepta Soroitas as countermeasures for such a day to brutal effect, but not against the intended targets; The 84th Savage Crows turned on their 'holy' allies, slaughtering them to a woman within the first two hours of the conflict in the name of Tzeentch. Looting much of the sisters relics and equipment, the Savage Crows moved into their former shrine and claimed it for their own even as wild warp energies started to ravage the hive city itself. 

While the hive around them was abandoned by many, the Savage Crows have remained in their 'haunted' hive, using their stealth tactics and knowledge of their home to avoid the worst and more indiscriminate of the warp manifestations completely. 

They have not been idle in their victory; During the relative peace that they had after the hive was considered abandoned, they have dug in and prepared themselves in the event of fresh invaders... while also making plans to ally with certain factions of the chaos gods. Plans are already in motion to try and barter the equipment that they looted from the Adepta Sororitas that they don't know how to use to earn themselves some allies and possibly some rather interesting chaotic toys to play with.      

Allies: (To be discussed later)

The Marshal is quite old now, and may soon become a Dreadnought if he isn't careful. However, he is strong and wise beyond his years.

Castellan: Castellan Gareth, a former Emperor's Champion and a battle brother that took command of his unit during one of the great incursions of the Tyranid swarm Kraken during the Nimbosa crusade, saving his unit from being taken unaware by a splinter fleet and successfully fighting their way out to make it to Nimbosa. 

Emperor's Champion: 200 years old, Sword Brethren Uther has fought with the Blooded Crusaders through most of their Crusades, having served with distinction and having just received visions of a coming victory against Chaos upon the Hive World Dis, being made into one of the Emperor's Champions and given the 'Black Sword' to carry out the Emperor's will.

His forces then served with distinction in the The Nimbosa Crusade (993.M41) fighting the Tau off of the Imperium's eastern worlds, specifically the planet of Nimbosa and the destruction of a Tau garrison. They found themselves at the core of the fighting during the Barbarosa Crusade (998.M41) fighting Orks that had fled the world of Armageddon and Chaos troops at one of the Black Templars sacred Temples. Recently, they helped run off forces of Abaddon the Despoiler during the 13th Black Crusade (999.M41).

167th Siege Regiment of the Death Korps of Krieg

“In life, war. In death, peace”



The Regiment:

Type: Siege Regiment
Homeworld: Krieg
Numbers: 3252 Kriegsman + 1300 local “conscripts” (See Krieg total war notions) for total of 4552
Allegiance: The Imperium of Man and the God-Emperor (Loyalist)
Commander: Colonel 33-Weinberg
Arrival: Inquisitor Nox's reinforcements

HQ and Command Squad:

Name: 3383 4322 5221-Weinberg
Appearance: Colonel 33-Weinberg
Age: 99
Gender: Male
Faction: Imperium
Rank and Force Type: Colonel and Astra Militarum 
Primary Skills: Tactics, Logistics, Urban Warfare, Trench Warfare, Military Law, Counter-insurgency 
Planet of Origin: Krieg

Background: The highest ranking officer of the 167th Siege Regiment, 33-Weinberg is an old, ruthless and stoic as Kriegers come. A veteran of older wars, Weinberg is the surviving former Major and 2nd in command of the Regiment, who has now become its leader following its crippling following the Battle of Ateria III and death of the former Colonel. 33-Weinberg is more cautious and careful than most Krieger commanders due to the traumatic losses they suffered at Ateria III and so wishes to avoid the mistakes of his predecessor. While not a true advocate of ‘preserving the lives of his men’ (he knows that all true Kriegers wish to die), he will try to avoid ‘useless’ death so to fight more efficiently in the name of the emperor.
Name: Cera “Old Hen” Falk
Appearance: Commissar Falk
Age: 178
Gender: Female
Faction: Imperium
Rank and Force Type: Commissar and Astra Militarum 
Primary Skills: Military Law, Discipline, Morale, Rationality
Planet of Origin: Hydennia VII

Background: An old commissar moved in out of retirement on behest of her homeworld, Cera Falk was called upon more as a military adviser and trainer in an earlier initiative to retrain and reorganise the 167th to deal with the near universal problem with Krieg regiments, being their disregard for their survival and suicidal tendencies, particularly after its near total destruction after the battle for Ateria III. She has now followed the regiment into its first major deployment since the disaster of Ateria III.  Commissar Falk considers this one of her strangest attachments of her entire career, as now instead of shooting cowards and forcing wavering troops forward, she has to shoot reckless fanatics and hold troops back. 

While Falk considers herself a ‘tough bitch’, the Kriegers consider her almost grandmotherly and overly empathetic, gaining her the nickname “Old Hen” due to her constant attempts at trying to reason with guardsmen trying to launch suicide attacks on the enemies of the emperor.
Name: 55766 7311 3455-Klaus
Appearance: Captain 55-Klaus
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Faction: Imperium
Rank and Force Type: Captain, In command of the 2nd Battalion of the 167th Siege Regiment
Primary Skills: Strategy, High-Risk Operations, Stormtroopers/trench raids, Night Raids, Charisma(relative), Melee
Planet of Origin: Krieg

Background: 5766 7311 23455 Klaus (or simply 55-Klaus) is the young and aspiring protege of Colonel 33-Weinberg. A strategic and tactical genius at a young age, he would probably be a general by now if it wasn’t for his significant weakness (shared by many Kriegers). 55-Klaus is a hopeless romanticist, obsessed with redeeming himself through blood and death in direct combat with the heretics so that he may be redeemed for his stained bloodline of heresy (referring to Kriegs old treachery and nuclear devastation). His obsession makes him use his brilliance for incredibly high risk maneuvers and raids, in the hopes he will die gloriously. His obsession and bloodthirsty fanaticism also makes him very popular amongst the Kriegers, where others see a madman, Kriegers see a charismatic leader. Rumoured to drink the blood of his enemies.
Name: Nira Auburn (referred to as 6832 9814F by her new Krieger bosses)
Appearance: Nira Auburn
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Faction: Imperium
Rank and Force Type: Conscript and Junior Architect at Schola (Now Military Engineer)
Primary Skills: Architecture, Engineering, Mathematics, Siegeworks, Earthworks, Local Culture/Translator
Planet of Origin: Pontius Secundas 

Background: Formerly a native of the sector and studying architecture at the local advanced-level schola, Nira Auburn has since been conscripted on the spot by the arriving 167th Siege Regiment, as part of the Kriegers tradition of essentially conscripting any loyalist civilian they come across be they man, woman or child.  The Kriegers have put her skills to use by putting her in charge of assisting in the creation of earthworkers, trenches and other defences along what they believe will be a frontline against invading traitor forces, or otherwise having her translate between their language and her own (She will forever regret being the only person in the schola that decided to learn a language as obscure as Kriegan). Very much wanting to be somewhere else, Auburn doesn’t really have much of a choice but to comply. Such is life under the Imperium.

Name: Korvan Yarr the Flesh Changer (and Irasesh, true name unknown to mortals...except him...her...self)

Age: 10,000+ 

Description: Korvan Yarr was always an alluring figure, even among a legion as well known for fine-looking specimens as the Emperor's Children, a selfish narcissist from the very beginning he nevertheless joined whole-heartedly in his legions quest for utter perfection in all things. Before allowing himself to become the symbiotic host of a Herald of Slaanesh, he was already a striking figure - tall even for an Astartes, with a fine squared jaw, piercing eyes of glittering blue, his delicate brow topped by a mane of golden hair and his skin as white as porcelain. His armour was equally fine, always polished to a shine, the purple and gold decorated with symbols of the Aquila and his own legion insignia and any scratch or mark always repaired or covered as soon as possible.

After his possession he was much changed, his once masculine features taking on a more feminine look - his once blue eyes filling with black, his fine teeth becoming more pointed like those of a predator, his tongue elongating in his mouth and his hair turning into a writhing tentacle-like mass upon his head. If anything his face become more delicate, his jawline becoming more angular and his lips fuller, his cheekbones more prominent and his eyebrows thinner...yes, he also has the ubiquitous single breast in representation of his patron deity. The final thing was the changing of his skin-tone from ivory white to a pinkish-purple hue.

His armour on the other hand changed little, the symbols replaced for those of his patron, the overall look taking on a more 'Chaotic' nature in terms of spikes, elongated ports on his backpack etc and a more garish colour scheme of pink, white and black.

It must be said, however, that like all who are possessed - especially those that are inhabited by entities who they have bought into a more 'equal' arrangement, Korvan Yarr can (and does) change his body during battle. Sometimes sprouting a wicked scythe-like claw, perhaps his legs turning more into oddly jointed appendages ending in claws, it simply depends on his own whims and those of the Daemonic force within him.

Faction: Chaos 

Rank and Force Type: Possessed Champion of Slaanesh, leading a Slaaneshi Warhost

Primary Skills: Subterfuge, torture, raiding and fast assaults and Daemonic allies (not a skill, but it helps)

Planet of Origin: Various, although Korvan Yarr himself came from Chemos

Command Details:

40  Daemonettes of Slaanesh, including a Herald

30 Noise Marines

80 Chaos Marines of the Emperor's Children Legion, including 8 Anointed of Slaanesh

100 Chaos Marines of various renegade and heretical Chapters and warbands, a number of them being Sergeants or above, including one former Chapter Master

10 Rhinos

Formerly the 10th Inoxian Rifles, the entire regiment was corrupted to a man after being exposed to the delightful symphonies of Slaanesh, after massacring their Commissars they then turned upon their allies and won a great victory for their patron - both Korvan Yarr and Slaanesh.

The 10th was a mechanised infantry regiment, with around 7,000 soldiers and enough Chimera transports to take them all from point A to point B in relative safety. Standard Imperial armament is theirs, with their once grey uniforms daubed in garish colours and heretical symbols that would show them as true followers of the Dark Prince.

Once known as the 327th Freinheight Artillery Regiment, this group of some 100 Basilisk artillery pieces now serve the Dark Prince, their Earthshaker cannons singing a cacophony of glorious noise as they rain death from the heavens.

The Astartes was once a Battle Barge of the Emperor's Children, now serving as the flagship for Korvan Yarr and his primary host of Chaotic Astartes and their daemonic allies. It is not wholly known how he came to command the vessel but, as with many servants of Slaanesh, it likely involved a lot of underhanded tactics, backstabbing and honeyed words. Like all vessels of this type it is heavily armed and armoured, more than capable of going toe-to-toe with most Imperial vessels of the present day, used primarily as a planet-raider and vast holding pen for whatever fleshy loot the Host can take.
