==Chapter Strength==

{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center"
! colspan="2" |At what strength is the Chapter? (d10)
|- 
! 1
| Endangered: The Chapter numbers only a handful of Companies or less having suffered devastating losses in combat, accident, or dramatic genetic instability. If recovery is even possible it will take many decades, making every Battle-Brother (and his Progenoids) an invaluable resource.
|-
! 2-4
| Under Strength: The Chapter is recovering from a defeat or accident that occurred several decades ago, or has recently suffered heavy, but not irrecoverable losses. It is probably at a minimum of half strength, and should return to nominal strength within a decade.
|-
! style="white-space: nowrap;" | 5-9
| Normal: The Chapter can field ten full companies, each with ten squads. In all likelihood most every squad consist of ten brethren and some specialized appointments may be empty, but the Chapter is regarded as fully fit for battle.
|-
! 10
| [[Troll|Over Strength]]: Some Chapters maintain more than the prescribed ten companies, though it is rare for more than a handful more to be fielded and even then only temporarily. It may be that the Emperor’s Tarot has predicted terrible losses ahead, The Marines are getting some extra Milage out of the the Marines that ''technically'' don't count towards the 1000 Marine limit (such as Librarians and Dreadnoughts, or permanent fleet crews) or that the Chapter simply regards its numbers as optimal and cares little for the dictates of the Codex Astartes.
