Editing Al-Sherar (section)

===Military===

The vagaries of the Al-Sherar Sector tempered the Forge World's military without bloating it. The dominant Xenos of the Sector, the Amatteir, preferred raiding to conquest and set Al-Sherar's warriors the task of a long vigil rather than centuries of peace or war.

Like many of the other great Forge Worlds, Al-Sherar is home to a mighty Titan Legion, the '''Legio Antsar Ordo Titanicus''', better known as Legio Antsar or "The Conquerors" and famous as much for the skill of its commanding '''Ameers''' as the strength of its many god-machines.  During the Great Crusade, Legio Antsar was able to form the core of several [[Expedition Fleets (Hektor Heresy)|Expeditionary Fleets]] while deploying supporting maniples to the crusades of the Fifth Legion.  Similarly, the Legio Cybernetica saw service in the crusades of the Alim and their Space Marine allies.

Even before the beginning of the Heresy, Al-Sherar's Taghmata Omnissiah were deployed far from the Forge World itself.  Tech-Guard regiments gave security to the Dar al-Amn and occasionally fought against resurgent Xenos forces.


====Vassals and allies====
Al-Sherar's Knight Households were based on ''Iteru''.  The thrall-knight [[Order of Bahri]] is the largest and best-known, but they shared Iteru with the dashing "Mahars" of the Maryannu Brotherhood.

The pact between the Kabeer Al-Mufteen and the Primarch of the Fifth Legion was founded shortly before Al-Sherar achieved Compliance with the Imperial Truth.  [[Gaspard Lumey]]'s TechMarines almost all owed their training to Al-Sherar and many of his warriors recognised the Alim as their brothers in battle.

Similarly, Al-Sherar could often turn to [[Ciban IV]] and her colonies for supporting regiments of [[Ciban Chasseurs]].  Although not as capable in battle as the elite warriors of the Mechanicum, the Chasseurs were disciplined, flexible soldiers who could put a "human face" on Al-Sherar's campaigns.

Nearby [[Ghalhal]] pursued a cautious policy, attempting to tack between Al-Sherar and Mars with her independence intact.  Nevertheless, Ghalhal's Titans - the Ordo Cataegis - and her allies in [[the Markian Corps]] could often be found alongside the warriors of the Alim.  During the [[Hektor Heresy]], the Markians and Cataegis would play a key role in defending the Al-Sherar Sector, though no sentimental honours were laid at their feet by the Kabeer Al-Mufteen.
