Editing Imperial Fists (section)

==Daily routine==

'''3:00 - Reveille:''' The Imperial Fists are roused from their iron slabs and spiked beds to start the day. Morning Prayer is still an hour away, but it takes that long just to get past the locks and barricades they put up the night before.<br>
'''4:00 - Morning Prayer:''' The Imperial Fists assemble for a sermon by the Chaplains. The poses of fealty they maintain are specifically designed to be the most physically uncomfortable possible.

'''4:30 - Morning fortifications:''' the imperial fists, will begin laying down literal foundations for todays fortifications, mixing cement, architecture, putting up steel beams, building bunkers etc, in the next 30 miniutes an ungodly amount of cement is mixed and every

battle brother has a big grin on his face. any battle brother who can run over an attacking iron warrior with a steamroller during this hour, as brother dozer did, will receive a purity seal from the chaplain for a job well done, and hi fives all around.<br>
'''5:00 - Morning Firing Rites:''' The Imperial Fists assemble to practice their firing drills. You can imagine everyone's surprise when the Chapter serfs learn that the Fists have built up fortifications around their firing ranges.

'''5:00 - Morning breakfast meal:''' the imperial fists stop for breakfast, on offer is milk, grain, orange juice, granola, rice and eggs, all of which are ''fortified.'' for those battle brothers who want something else the chapter serfs lay out wheat-a-brix, and for those who 

wish to suffer like lord Dorn, those masochistic marines who wish to find clarity in pain, the chapter serfs have also laid out grapefruit.<br>
'''6:00 - Battle Practice:''' The Imperial Fists descend into the battle cages for practice in close combat and moving targets. Frequently the Imperial Fists will forgo medical attention for injuries. Bare-fisted combat is encouraged. 

7''':10 - post battle practice fortifications:''' the imperial fists will return to their combination building sites/fortresses/bunkers/tree houses and find their cement foundation is perfect and can begin laying down a structure with walls and turrets and moats, conveniently located near known iron warrior bases, any battle brother who trolls the iron warriors during this hour gets to carry the chapters sacred relic, an ancient terran construction device from m3, better known as a ''philips head screwdriver'', only the master of the forge gets to handle the chapters other relic, a black and decker cordless drill from ancient terra's more savage past! <br>
'''9:55 - Milkshake and Cookies break:''' Nutrient-fortified, in which the cookie batter is made from concrete and the milkshake is also made from concrete and consumed alongside the glass.<br>
'''10:00 - Pain Stimulation:''' The Imperial Fists undergo pain stimulation and endurance tests. Such tests range from the Pain Glove to sitting naked in rooms where the temperature is designed to simulate the night-side of [[Inwit]] during winter.<br>
'''11:00 - Free hour in the Constructatorium:''' The ancient Terran game “Lego” is provided for the Sons of Dorn from a local forge world by the metric tonne.
Many battle brothers, use this “Lego” to construct miniature replicas of titans, or [[Thunderhawk|Thunderhawks]] or [[The Phalanx]]. Finding great enjoyment in constructing tiny battlefields from the chapters past, any battle brother who opts to build “barbie's dream castle” or “Perturabo’s tormentor” will find himself spending an evening in the pain glove.
Unfortunately, they never bother to clean it up after themselves and reports of battle brothers deliberately walking on lego are unsubstantiated rumors at best. Though it doesn’t explain why every Imperial Fist wanders around the constructatorium in his bare feet or socks. <br>
'''12:00 - Midday meal:''' A light meal is prepared by the Chapter serfs. Showing pleasure at the taste earns you an hour in the Pain Glove. Rumors that Imperial Fists deliberately say they enjoyed the meal to get into the Pain Glove have never been proven.<br>
'''12:30 - Tactical Indoctrination:''' The Imperial Fists undergo tactical indoctrination on what sort of enemies they can expect to be crusading against in the near future, how to best design fortifications to stop them, and what sort of pain contact with their weapons causes.

'''13:00 - post indoctrination fortifications:''' having built walls and fortifications, the fists will now begin the fun part of putting in plumbing, electrical wiring and making sure the combination bunker/tree house/nuclear death fortress has the most sacred of rites completed....building code regulations, any imperial fist who fails to have his death fortress up to code will spend an evening with the pain glove, we all remember brother Hasticus who didn't have his armoury's wind resistance regulations up to code, the shame of which forced him to become a blackshield, now he builds watch fortresses in shame and makes sure the deathwatch's electrical wiring is up to code.<br>
'''16:00 - Evening Firing rites:''' The Imperial Fists engage in evening firing drills. these are usually done behind massive amounts of cover, a series of landmines and turrets and aim at any targets that look suspiciously like iron warriors<br>'''17:00''' - '''chaplians read from the litany of building codes and regulations :''' the imperial fists will gather to hear the master of sanctity reciting ancient Terran regulations on seismic design, plumbing and ancient Terran zoning use, chaplain's will talk about the importance of smoke alarms, backflow prevention and door width, make no mistake these are very serious matters to any imperial fist, any battle brother who cant recite the litany's of accessibility requirements will be getting a belt from his chaplain's crozarius arcanum.

'''18:00 - evening construction manoevers:''' It is at this time the fists will gather to put in windows and doors and minefields and battlements like any good imperial fist home would have, rockcrete is put in, plasteel walls, thermo plasmic generators are installed and any iron warriors that try to lay siege will be fortified so badly their primarch will feel it, those not fortified to death or having a cauldron of cement on them will be run over by the many imperial fist steam rollers they have on hand, 

'''19:00 - Evening Prayer:''' The Imperial Fists assemble for a sermon by the Chaplains. The uncomfortable poses of fealty are no longer required now, though many still maintain them. Sermons are often short and to the point, consisting of the shouted word "FIST" echoed by those present.

'''20:00 - ancient Terran cultural learnings:'''  For the next hour, all present members of the Imperial Fists will endure a curated selection of M2 and M3-era ''Ancient Terran holo-vids'', sanctioned (barely) by the Ordo Hereticus for psychological resilience calibration. This broadcast has been cleared for viewing under strict liturgical supervision. these include, "Fraggle Rock" – An anomalous subterranean simulation depicting xenos puppetry and heretical joy. Monitored by a servitor for signs of unintended laughter "Bob the Builder" – Ostensibly a juvenile edification program on construction, currently under Inquisitorial review for suspected tech-heresy and unsanctioned machine empathy "Field of Dreams" – A narrative centred around primitive Terran sport and spectral communion. Notable for irrational construction of a sports field in violation of all logistical doctrine. Allegedly inspirational. Recommended for Iron Warriors capture/re-education scenarios "The Money Pit" – A cautionary tale of architectural failure and domestic collapse. Particularly useful for reinforcing proper siege doctrine, Those battle-brothers seeking to atone for sins against the Codex Astartes, failures in fortress maintenance, or minor acts of heresy, may submit themselves for the ultimate trial: "The Notebook" – A prolonged emotional weapon disguised as a romance film. Involves a human constructing a domicile for reasons unrelated to tactical utility  WARNING: Exposure may induce extreme emotional suppression failure and terminal boredom. only available with approval from both chief apothacary and master of sanctity, apothocary must be on hand to monitor pain and boredom levels<br>
'''21:00 - Evening Meal:''' A feast is prepared for the Imperial Fists by the Chapter serfs. The Chapter Serfs finally tend to any significant injuries, though many refuse aid.<br>
'''22:00 - Evening Fortifications:''' The Imperial Fists set up fortifications in their cells to make sure no one can get into their room and surprise them while sleeping.<br>
'''23:00 - Rest:''' The Imperial Fists retire to their iron slabs or spiked beds for the evening.
