Adeptus Astartes Poster
They are my bulwark against. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my and they shall know no fear.' –The Space Marines, also known as (or 'Marinelets' now that the are here) and canonically named the Adeptus Astartes are an army in the universe. They are bio-enhanced super soldiers clad in, and are generally regarded as the toughest warriors to ever serve the (except for the Adeptus Custodes and Imperial Assassins). The average Space Marine is around eight feet tall.
They used to be seven feet in the old fluff, but and the rest of Games Workshop have a hard-on for gigantism (though they have addressed the problems real-life gigantism can cause by throwing in more bio-engineering) so they jacked them up a foot, though RPGs from Fantasy Flight Games and games by THQ scaled them back to the more reasonable seven feet. Although do note that the height of Marines can vary greatly; some can even reach ten feet, like. 'Giant gods of war' is far more believable, considering their insane feats and ability for a handful of them to face down an Ork WAAAGH!!! And Tyranid Hive Fleets, yet still make a major difference.Internally, they have bones that can repel anything short of a boltgun round and can breathe underwater even without their helmets on because they have a third (artificial/augmetic) lung. They can also breathe all but the most potent of toxic fumes with little to no damage to their respiratory system, have two hearts, and live for hundreds of years (they may be functionally immortal, but they usually die in battle after a few centuries, so nobody can be sure). They are vastly more powerful in their than they actually are in the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game (although the Marines statted in or are walking rapemachines, and the Marines in are hard as nails). Much like the are the 40k successors of the, Space Marines are the 40k successors of Warrior Priests, right down to their BALD.
Portrayals range from hardcore but plausible super-soldiers to shameless who could fight off Batman with one hand and the Joker with the other. Although occasionally, they serve to make other galactic forces seem superior. More like the Ineptes Astartes.They account for approximately 35% of the playable armies (counting chaos space marines) in 40k, over 21.4% (yeah, I thought that was a pretty conservative estimate too) of played armies among the 40k fandom (factoring in that people can collect and play more than one 40k army), and as of October 2010, receive about 50% or more of new releases. While there are many, many chapters that you can choose from, the actual armies basically boil down to six main choices:, (barely), (previously) and everybody else (with the accounting for three more codexes).
Everyone who's a successor of the first two choices follows their codex and generally share their units, while the 'everybody else' just follows the generic Space Marine codex. Don't let the promotional art fool you, though; the Space Marine army isn't exclusively Ultramarines. It used to be that you also had individual codices the, but they got folded into the generic Space Marine army.
At least they still get special chapter-specific units, which is more than can be said for the likes of the or other important yet still-neglected chapters. But nooo, the Ultramarines need every type of special character.Contrary to that, fluff-wise Space Marines are amongst the smallest factions in the game. With Loyalist Marines combined they number just above one million in a galaxy where Imperium alone have more or less million of honest to good inhabited worlds ( deepshit colonies with a population of only few millions may or not be included in that number). In fact any single capital-class space ship may have a population higher than the entirety of Marines in the Galaxy. Furthermore, marine armies are extremely fractured, very rarely deployed at above a few companies per war zone. GW never cared to explain how forces so small could have such a huge impact on the battlefields, when Orks, Guard and Tyranids could field their troops in millions, and Chaos can convert entire populations of planets (which is often tens of billions). Regardless, everything that is something in the setting has a tendency to at least have a bit Space Marines in it, if they aren't flat-out the protagonists.
Expect enormous campaigns to revolve around a few companies, regardless of the involved numbers of Guardsmen and enemy xenos and chaotic characters, and the Marines to be the key to victory in any given war.It should be noted that, per 'Fall of Cadia', mustered a force of CSM ten times of the original Legion (i.e. Luna Wolves) for 13th Black Crusade, so yeah, no wonder poor Cadians didn't stand a chance.Of the many kinds of 40k fans, the Space Marine fanboy might be the most obnoxious and common one. They closely resemble fans of a politically radical movements; having little to no ability to see their own faction's obvious and glaring faults, while demonstratively arguing that all other factions are below them.
The Space Marine fan fervently believes that any Marine-centered Bolter Porn presents the truth about the setting, which will lead to many a SM Fan proclaiming that they know exactly how all other factions are weaker in relation to Marines, regardless of what the actual fans of those factions and accepted lore actually says. Space Marine fans are often fans who have been reading the books or playing Dawn of War before getting into the wider setting, and as such get their views in a bit of a twist. Fortunately, many Space Marine fans end up migrating to another faction, becoming bored with the Marines and getting into a faction, or, in search of further elitist kicks, gets.THIS JUST IN: THE SPACE MARINES JUST GOT AN! Marine with half his FUCKING face missing, skulls in the wall, bolter laying ready and servitors with hoods swinging censers. Ladies and gents,.After the end of the, the Emperor of Mankind (over achieving at it's finest) wanted to reunite in a across the galaxy, and he realized that in order to do this he would need one epic-ass army and equally epic generals to lead it. He created the, his sons, to be his generals, and let me tell you, these guys were some of the most insanely powerful badasses in all the lore of 40k, and that is saying something.
(There is a story in which snaps a fucking 's spine over his knee.) From their DNA, he created the. Their first task was to locate their Primarchs, because the of had scattered them across the galaxy in an attempt to foil the Emperor's efforts at human reunification (they were basically just butt-hurt that they didn't have some baddass buttfucking sons).
All of the Primarchs were eventually recovered and reunited with their respective legions, but then, at the height of the Space Marines' power, disaster struck., the Emperor's most trusted Primarch, fell to Chaos and turned traitor along with his legion, the, and several others followed suit. After much, the Emperor killed Horus personally (Daddy issues at their finest yet again), but was mortally wounded in the process, which is why he is now a zombie being kept alive by the technologies of the Golden Throne (Undead Heresy?). The traitor legions, who are now known as the TRAITOR ASTARTES, were defeated and pushed back to the.
All of the Primarchs that did not fall to Chaos during the Horus Heresy either disappeared or were, and until very recently, none remained to lead the Space Marine. (, primarch of the Ultrasmurfs, long enshrined and healing in stasis has recently been revived after ten thousand years). In addition, after the Heresy, the legions were mostly of up to a thousand Marines according to the teachings of the (although some Chapters, such as the and the, do not follow Astartes orthodoxy and maintain forces in much greater numbers, and go so far as to form almost legion-strength forces.)The Space Marines are most commonly looked upon as warrior-monks, generally referring to each other as 'Brother', 'Battle Brother' or some variation thereof based on rank, spending most or all of their time training, in battle, or venerating the Emperor. However, no two Chapters are exactly alike, and many differ wildly from the standard perception of the Marines. The Space Wolves, as one example, appear to be much less disciplined than most other Chapters, maintaining a much larger force than permitted by the Codex and frequently having great feasts with much merriment and drinking (the Space Wolves happen to produce the only intoxicating beverage known to have any effect on Marine physiology, and which liquefies the innards of non-Astartes). Their attitude toward others in the Imperium can also differ greatly from Chapter to Chapter or even from marine to marine.
Some are very idealistic, believing very strongly in their role as protectors of humanity (such as the or the ). Others, like the, tend to disregard the ordinary elements of the Imperium, and emphasize much more their role as a weapon against its enemies. And some are.Their attitude towards the Emperor can also vary. Although they are typically believed to worship him as a deity like most of the rest of the Imperium, the Space Marines are, by virtue of their gene-seeds, derived from the Primarchs and hence the Emperor himself, making them much closer to him than most humans.
In fact, many of the Space Marine chapters' beliefs maintain some of the old that the Emperor was not a god, but simply the greatest of mortal men, worthy of praise and veneration but not a deity proper. Although it is true that the majority of the chapters certainly venerate him in an orthodox manner, others just scream his name a lot because that's tradition. The exact degree of Emperor-worship in the Space Marine chapters is a bit mushy. Some openly refer to the Emperor as the God-Emperor while others are outright contemptuous of the idea. Captain Zachariah Kersh, later Chapter Master, was such a nah-sayer but was converted by his experiences during the destruction of the Cholercaust on Certus-Minor.
This could mean that among the various Chapters the exact degree of veneration of the Emperor could be entirely a personal choice rather than explicit doctrine. But again the inconsistencies therein make it hard to judge. Alternatively to this theme being a result of lazy writers is that it is in fact a clever but under-developed effect of the progression of the plot of Warhammer 40k.
Such that by the end of the 41st millennium, things are so awful that even the Space Marines seek resolve in the worship of the God-Emperor. The great Papa Smurf hisself.Space Marines are generally regarded as having something of an 'unfair advantage' in the tabletop, mainly because every young 40k player has a strong liking for them, and almost every unit in the listings has at least a 3+ armor save, making them rather hard to kill, especially when considering armies such as the Blood Angels have models that allow players to roll an additional 'Feel No Pain' 4+ save if they fail the 3+ one. The problem is that it took 3 Space Marine chapter books in 5th edition to come up with a Space Marine Codex framework that didn't suck (almost nothing in C:SW is non-competitive or poorly priced), which is why Long Fangs are usually 50 points cheaper than their Space Marine counterparts, while being twice as effective. Why are Devastators supposedly more expensive? Combat tactics. Yeah, you're never going to use it.
The Ultramarines in particular are an extremely popular choice of Space Marine chapter, and their blue design coupled with the small size of the miniatures often leads to them being referred to as 'Smurfs'. Thanks to, the Space Marines in general are frequently called 'Spess Mehreens', or variations to that effect. The Space Marines of today look very different from the glory days of Rogue Trader, when they earned the nickname ' because of their signature helmets.Denizens of /tg/ are prone to claiming a wide variety of things about the Space Marines, usually about their sexual activity (or lack thereof), ranging from assertions that the genitalia of a Space Marine is nonfunctional to claims that they are castrated during the creation process. They never have any supporting evidence for these theories and it is not clear whether or not Space Marines are allowed to have sex, which chapters would allow them to have sex, if they even can have sex, if they're still capable of normal human reproduction, or what bits they may or may not still possess.
Still, that doesn't stop anyone from stating their personal opinion as if it were fact. The most revealed is that a female inquisitorial henchwoman got an eyeful of a naked Grey Knight novice and was rather impressed by what she saw. The Grey Knight, naturally, had no idea why she seemed so interested.An interesting point to not is that right below this segment on the right is an image of a marine with a loin-cloth. If there is no modesty to protect, why protect it? One suspects that the reason marines aren't afforded the luxury of sex (aside from distraction from serving the Emperor), is that they'd kill whatever unfortunate woman or xenos livestock they take a fancy to.The point is, due to psychological conditioning and likely the sterilizing effects of the augmentation process, followed by a century plus of service to the emperor in radiation and toxic filled environments, they are simply disinclined towards it, and wouldn't result in any more meat-shields for the Emperor's glorious wars regardless, thus only serving theCreation.
From deranged lab-experiment to fucking.Knowing for humanity in space, the Emperor of Mankind designed the, to enhance the regular human body to keep the Space Marines going when fighting these monstrosities. Over a series of several years, human adolescents, dubbed aspirants, are selected through a rigorous process which varies from Chapter to Chapter. They are always male, with cited reasons including that Astartes are basically clones of their Primarchs, and by extension the Emperor, and that the geneseed requires portions of the Y-chromosome to function. When their training goes to the next stage, the aspirants are implanted with the initial gene-seed.
They then become neophytes, Space Marines in training. As the gene-seed is implanted into them, the neophytes also go through hypnotic conditioning to hone their responses. By the time they're done, the subject has few impulses beyond fighting and killing in the name of the Emperor (it's sometimes thought that this is what kills their sex drive) and most of their memories of their earlier lives are all but forgotten. The only mental frailties remaining are a 'fear' (ATSKNF notwithstanding) of failure and experiencing notable stress when severely injured or crippled, as they are no longer able to fulfill their function.After receiving all these organs and conditioning, it's highly arguable if a Space Marine still qualifies as human. Though the has basic 'kill on sight' orders for most non-humans and venerates the 'Holy Human Form', the topic of whether or not Space Marines violate this edict is ignored, mostly because they were designed by the Emperor and thus considered holy creations. There is also an understandable hesitance to declare war on the only thing standing between the Imperium and the unfathomable evil of the.
When the going gets tough, the tough get going.The lifespan for Astartes is something of a tricky subject. While it’s made clear that Space Marines live many centuries longer than normal humans, exactly how long they’re supposed to live has never really been elaborated on; and furthermore, keep in mind that the middle age of the upper-class Imperial citizens is circa 3 centuries or so. It doesn’t help that there has never been a Space Marine shown or described to have ever died of anything resembling old age, and that different chapter bloodlines (and writers) each appear to handle aging differently. So there really isn’t any kind of baseline to work with here. Perhaps most central to the issue is the question of whether or not Astartes are biologically immortal.On the “for” side, both Dan Abnett and Graham McNeill claim that Astartes are indeed immortal, and that although they might physically age (grey hair, wrinkles, etc.) it is only skin deep and they are in just as good physical condition as when they first joined the Astartes, only dying when they are killed. Nick Kyme also appears to be a believer in the immortal point of view (though more in a sitting-stone-gathers-moss-and-lasts-forever kind of way), as in his Salamanders series, an.
His armor had melded into the metal of the ship and he could no longer move, but he was alive. He had apparently been sitting there watching over the empty, ancient suits of armor from his fallen brothers for ten thousand years.
He was also borderline crazy from all the memories filling his head (thanks eidetic memory, but then if he had human memory he'd have Alzheimers or something) and his vocal cords and muscles were desiccated, but the latter are implied to be due to atrophy from inactivity more than anything else so that doesn't count. Nick Kyme also touched on the subject in Fall of Damnos, with a Tactical Sergeant remarking that he did not know himself if Astartes could die of old age, or that even if they could he had never heard of it happening - indeed, it would be a dishonor to the warrior lifestyle of a Space Marine to do so. The Night Lords series by Aaron Dembski-Bowden is another in the 'for' catagory, at least in that the Astartes refer to humans as 'mortals,' and Talos, at just 300 years old, is apparently considered young for a crusade-era, unwarped traitor space marine.
David Annandale has also made allusions to the longevity of the Astartes. In ‘The Death of Antagonis’ Brother Nithigg of the Black Dragons chapter is noted by Sergeant (later captain) Volos to be ‘at least 1000’, and showing no signs of slowing down or decrease in combat efficiency.On the “against” side, the Blood Angels are specifically noted for having exceptionally long, but limited lifespans, namely a 1000 years give or take, and Marines from other chapters don’t live nearly as long.
This has been reaffirmed in the current Blood Angels Codex, and it should be noted that it was written by GW's biggest Space Marine fanboy. Yes, even Ward says Space Marines can die of old age. Even Abnett has flip-flopped a bit on it, with Brothers of the Snake (admittedly his first time writing Space Marines) portraying the apothecary Khiron as starting to slow down with his advanced age and not being quite as fit as he used to be. The Space Wolves also have a dedicated unit representing their more senior members in the Long Fangs. While the canis helix certainly plays a part in their aging, it is also implicit that these warriors represent a more traditional 'warrior elder.'
Maybe most importantly, a highly plot-relevant fact about the duel between and is that everyone present, Abaddon included, agreed that if Sigismund had not been slowed down by his age, he would have been the clear victor, and Abaddon only managed to fight him to a near-mutual-kill draw because he had been protected from aging by living in the Eye of Terror. Other things you can handwave or retcon, but the Black Templar vs the Black Legion Master is as close to sancrosanct as you get.So yeah, Black Library has a tendency to be inconsistent with the established lore. Big surprise.
But in this case the reason is twofold: firstly, some gamers would think less of the Space Marines if they could die of old age, and Games Workshop doesn't want that. Secondly, Games Workshop seems to agree that they would be awesome if they didn't die of old age, but they don't want to anger the part of the fanbase that would disapprove of Space Marines being biologically immortal, so they're deliberately vague about it.
Which is stupid because the entire reason why Space Marines possess a god-like mystique is that they are immortals. If they were mortal and merely long lived, they'd not be all that impressive. Dangerous, yes, but completely lacking any sort of awe factor. They would be extremely powerful soldiers.
By being immortal, they go from speshul forces to demigods, which makes all the difference. The people who don't want the Astartes to be immortal are whiny bitches who want their own armies seem more impressive by dragging the Astartes down to a mortal level. Which is pathetic and probably heretical.(For those arguing that if marines were already immortal, it would give the Chaos Space Marines less impetus to become daemon princes, there's a big difference between being biological immortal but still susceptible to physical limitations, injury and death, and being a godlike unkillable creature of the warp that doesn't obey the laws of physics anymore and can never truly be killed, only banished for a short time.
Also in case your wondering, chaos marines who remember the Horus Hersey but are not demons do not count as either 'for' or 'against' due to warp shenanigans. Except that the Night Lords don't live in the Warp or Warp-influenced space.but, no one knows whether or not any of them are from the Horus Heresy.)Biologically immortal or not, at the end of the day the only true measurement of an Astartes’ lifespan is how killy they are. If Space Marines can die of old age, they’re almost certainly going to die in battle before age ever starts to take its toll, and if it does, then they just die in battle as soon as old age starts to slow them down, so that doesn't really count. As a general estimate, though, 400-500 years seems to be a good average life expectancy for most Space Marines. Past that point, a Space Marine is usually considered among their chapter’s most venerable elders, and only the real badasses ever get this old.On a more grimdark note, it's been shown repeatedly in the Horus Heresy series that the Astartes are by no means immune to either PTSD or the subtler cumulative traumas that come from a lifetime cranking the handle of the meat grinder.
It's entirely possible that, in many cases, it's not so much age that slows them down as the weight of their experiences. Of course, those books weren't written by Dan Abnett, who seems to take the view that the Emperor wouldn't have made super soldiers who can suffer from PTSD, depression, and so on because what kind of moron would do that if they could prevent it. Besides that, it can be argued they go through PTSD and other issues during their training and pushed until they come full circle so by the time they become full Space Marines they're already deadened to such things.Space Marine Chapters.

However the name 'Astarte' is actually a goddess of fertility, love, war, sex and sexuality from the Eastern Mediterranean regions during the. Somewhat meta considering that the Emprah was also from that region (Anatolia) around the same time period.
And using a language that only he and besides dead people and three of (unlikely given the Emperor was anti-theistic and anti-religious), or this is just the Emperor keeping himself sane by engaging in humor he knows only one loyal person will get, which does not include his last.However, much as with the Raider, a more prosaic explanation was provided in the novel The Great Work, which features flashbacks from the memories of Ezekiel Sedayne (the guy who headed up the development team for the Black Carapace). It seems that the project’s coordinator was a mortal woman named Amar Astarte, who soon after slipped into obscurity as she fell out of political favour.See Also.
