Editing Conservators (section)

==Present state of affairs==
Almost two centuries after their rocky founding, the Conservators are now back in solid fighting shape. While still one of the weaker chapters in the Imperium they are nonetheless Adeptus Astartes and live up to the role as supersoldiers quite well. Their weapons are ancient in many cases, but very carefully maintained, and while Mk V armor was not the best even when it was new, it is still Astartes power armor and among the best protection to be found within the Imperium. The partnership with House Mackyntire has grown and flourished, with favorable trade in both directions between the people of the Asharn March and House Mackyntire. Lately there has been more cause for combat in the March, incursions by foreign Ork groups, as well as Tau and a Tyranid splinter fleet causing trouble, however the fighting force of the Conservators was enough to deal with the threat each time, with assistance from nearby Imperial Guard regiments.

At present the Conservators are still understrength for a chapter, in both numbers and materiel, lacking much of the armored power of other chapters and still not having quite as many full battle brothers. However they are still a well trained, well entrenched space marine chapter and at present have proven more than capable of defending their territory against everything that has thus far threatened it. While they have not ventured far beyond their own territory, they have answered calls for aid from several relatively nearby Imperial worlds, being carried to the battlezone by the more warlike vessels in House Mackyntire's fleet. While they have not engaged in any sector shaking conflicts thus far, they have earned a favorable reputation with the nearby worlds, though the long memory of the Mechanicus continues to haunt them, and they have yet to receive any official help from any forge world. The future of the Conservators seems promising, but as always it will be an uphill battle for the young chapter, as it has been since the day of their founding.
