Editing Setting:Brighthammer 40,000/Space Marines (2nd Edition)

'''Space Marines''' are the central Defensive/Offensive military force of the Imperium of Man for over 10 millenia. Created by the Emperor of Man himself from his own gene-seed (personal genome) the "Sons of Mankind" or the Primarchs led by the Emperor's favorite son [[Setting:Brighthammer 40,000/Horus|Horus]] the Space Marines are both a  beacon of humanities spiritual and social triumph.

However now the time of endings has begun and while as a ancient wise man once said "Hope for Peace but prepare for War" so now the ranks of the Imperial Marine corps must prepare for the greatest fight possibly within 10,000 years of peace. This is a conflict they may not survive.

=== Primary Chapters ===
The following is a complete (as is possible) listing of all Space Marine chapters within the [[Brighthammer 40,000/2nd edition|2nd Edition]] setting. Presumably this incorporates the rulesets from the current Rogue Trader and (as of current) 5th and (presumably) 6th edition codicies.

*[[Setting:Brighthammer 40,000/Space Wolves|Space Wolves]] - Living on a paradise planet near the eye of peace, These men pay tribute to the vikings of yore by adopting nordic motifs to most of their work. They are a rowdy bunch, but known for their extreme loyalty and dependability. They have even domesticated the Thunderwolves that roam their home planet, and they are often seen enjoying some form of civilian life.
