===Black Templars===

The [[Black Templars]] [[Space Marine]] do not follow the [[Codex Astartes]] organisation in that they do not have fixed companies and therefore the rank of [[Brother-Captain]] does not actually apply to them.

Instead, they use the rank of Marshal as their closest equivalent for the company commanders of their individual crusade fleets.

They often have high status, usually a Marshal leads a Black Templars Crusade and is second only to the [[High Marshal]] in terms of authority. With how many fucking Black Templars there are, there is gonna be a metric shit load of Marshals as well.

Marshals are chosen from the [[Sword Brethren]], the Black Templars elite troops.

Before they were temporarily [[Squat|squatted]]. Marshals or Commanders, depending on your definition, were relatively cheap comman units and had access to a <u>''LOT''</u> of really good wargear. While he doesn't make his squad fearless, he allows the whole army to test on his LD, so spend the 15 points to upgrade him to his LD 10 version. Considering that Templar squads test whenever they take any wounds from shooting, and only run forward if they /pass/, he's an essential addition.

But this only applies to 4th Edition of course. Fortunately, on August 16 2021, the Black Templars returned in force, with their first new codex in over several years going incognito.

===Adeptus Arbites===
The [[Adeptus Arbites]] includes the rank of "Suffering Marshal", which is a playable career in [[Dark Heresy]], representing those officers who go on detached duties in order to track down and recover [[Imperial]] fugitives, usually from worlds which are outside of Imperial jurisdictions.
