Rosskan Strelky
"I've known men and women from all over the galaxy. Good men, bad men. I learned that we all die the same. It can happen quick. Sometimes, it's slow, so slow you don't know when they'll pass and you pray for them just to die towards the end. And then it's over. My death won't be any different."
Vlatiskov, Strelky Sergeant after being asked about his service

The Rosskan Strelky were the Legionary Auxilia of the Silver Cataphracts, the Thirteenth Space Marine Legion. Unlike their counterparts in the Imperial Army, were supposed to be a disciplined standardized force drawn up from the Legion's conquests. Alexandri of Rosskar hand crafted the Strelky himself, treating them much in the same way he did his Legion. Starting from a few million recruits drawn up from a single world, to a sector spanning, couple billion large force able to fight and conquer worlds in their own right. The greatest contribution the Strelky had perhaps however, was showing Astartes can be beaten by normal humans alone.
