	The ~~Knights of Justice~~ spread out all across the galaxy, establishing bases at critical or important junctions. The ~~Knights~~ were nearly as strong as Hektor's wolves of Dawn were, but they were spread out and almost never assembled in one place. After the Segmentums were established, the largest base in each Segmentum was established as that region's HQ, where the actions of all bases within its command were planned out. From these grand cathedrals of martial might, many crusades were launched and staged, killing trillions of xenos and liberating thousands of planets.

	When Bohemond first caught wind of Hektor's treachery at Isstvan, he immediately called forth 10,000 honor guard and 10,000 reserve troops from holy terra to confront him. Unfortunately, his self-confidence got the better of him, and he along with 10,000 of his troops were slain by Hektor's Wolves and Kranios's Horns. As soon as the KoJ commanders stationed across the galaxy realized what was going on, they all reinforced themselves at their bases or HQ's. most remained intact, although the HQ and several bases in the Segmentum Obscurus were destroyed by the invading traitor legions on their way to Terra. The ~~Knights of Justice~~ secured their bases around the galaxy and kept out of fighting for the most part, until Hektor began to funnel his troops towards holy terra. Upon seeing this, the many commanders saw the perfect opportunity to enclose Hektor's forces; They sent tens of thousands of troops to the systems near holy terra, avoiding combat but still forcing Hektor's hand into attacking holy terra, where he could be defeated.

	Air Assault and Superiority		Air Assault and Superiority

	They are fast and surgical, hold a code of honour most highly, and are rather aloof and prideful, as they have a reputation and prestige unlike any other legion. They dominate the skies with Astarte-piloted aircraft, giving them vastly superior skill and ability in flight. Their forces are divided into three categories: Air, Space, and Land. The Space forces are rather minute, as boarding actions are rather rare, but the forces that are deployed are trained and equipped extensively, as space combat is not for the faint of heart nor the weak of mind. The air forces are the most numerous and most sought-after, for the sky is where the most fighting often is. The land forces are not as sought-after due to the fact that most conflicts are resolved with out ground deployment, but they are skilled at combat nonetheless. Due to their organization and dispersed deployment, the ~~Knights of Justice~~ can act as first-responders to almost any major conflict, dealing a critical and punishing defeat before the enemy can counter. Their role and personalities make them almost have a rivalry with other legions, which can turn to anger in more hot-blooded marines. However, any marine who has been in combat with the ~~Knights~~ knows and respects the awesome skill and efficiency they wield, despite petty rivalries.

	The Legions Vehicle armories are dominated by all manner of aircraft, especially Nephilim jet-fighters, Lightning interceptors, and Thunderbolt air-superiority units. They also use gunships such as Thunderhawks and Storm Eagles, albeit with greater speed and thrust than other gunships. Marauder bombers and Avenger strike-fighter are also used when fighting ground forces, usually after the air-superiority units have taken control of the sky. The other aircraft they field is a fearsome and titanic beast, a flying fortress capable of air combat, bombing runs, cargo transport, ground-strikes, and even space combat. This flying leviathan is a rare and terrifying vehicle, fielded only in the greatest of conflicts. This craft, named the Typhoon, is approximately 70 meters long, with a wingspan of approximately 100 meters. It has 2 side-mounted punisher gatling-guns, 4 wing-mounted assault cannons, 2 side-mounted vulcan mega-bolters, several missile launchers, 10 defensive las-repeaters, and a single quake cannon, capable of leveling battlefields.

	As for Marine equipment, all ground-based forces are given a modified jump-pack used for high-lateral-velocity jumps and horizontal movement. It has wings, and a built in rocket-launcher with a limited supply of anti-air missiles. bolt-weapons are a favorite among the ~~Knights~~, such as the tried-and-true bolt-gun, but they are normally restricted from using heavy weapons due to their love of close combat. Power swords, chainswords, and knifes are all used extensively. Space troops are given much more advanced equipment, such as terminator armor and energy-based weaponry.

	Whilst most Space Marines accepted the reformation of the Eyes of the Emperor, that forgiveness could be earned for their part in the betrayal of the Emperor and the subsequent death and destruction seemed unthinkable, especially given that their beloved Bohemond fell at Istvaan V. A schism was only prevented by a last-minute compromise suggested by (someone). The Eyes would be granted temporary forgiveness, and a delegation of the ~~Knights~~' choosing would watch for any sign of taint or treachery until such a time as the ~~Knights~~ felt that suitable penance had been carried out.

	It has now been over ten thousand years since the formation of the Guillotine Guard, recruited from veterans of the Battle Companies and rotated every few years. The Guillotine Guard stand watch over the Eyes, their mere name a reminder of the tenuous nature by which the Eyes of the Emperor still claim to be true servants of humanity.

	"It was like a wind, at first" remarked a PanPacific commander. "Then the wind turned to gale, and the skies became filled with wings of the Emperor's wrath; metal birds filled with the very first of the Emperor's legions, the Astartes Prima." Like a bolt of lightning cast from the heavens the First Legion descended, the Hyper-sonic aircraft splitting the ears of the enemies as they rained down several tonnes of explosive bombardment, in what would become one of their trademark assaults. A steep angled dive, much akin to that of a descending Drop Pod, directly over the enemy lines, while weapons blazed. Canon and missiles tore devastatingly into the assaulting armies, and at the last possible moment when it looked as though the craft were about to slam head first into the ground they pulled up suddenly firing their retro-thrusters, bringing the craft to sudden hovering halt, testing the limits of the Assault Craft's frame.

	Assault ramps dropped and the warriors of the Astartes Prima surged forth, ~~Volkite beams and Plasma shot~~ tearing into the troops of the PanPacific Empire, immolating them as the Storm Birds lifted off, to provide support. The relentless assault of the Mk I armored warriors was spearheaded by their Legion Master Stellan Ekus, one of those Ten Legionaries that had been apart of the Sacred Band. Closing with the enemy they would devestate them with short range firefights and close combat, engaging with ranged weapon in one hand and chain sword in the other. In the face of such a ferocious assault the enemy began to falter, and it was then that Hektor saw his chance to break out, seizing the opportunity allowed to him by the First he lead the Sacred Bands and Remnant Army forces in an assault, crushing the enemy from two directions. Amid the chaos of the battle one of the Unification and Great Crusade's most memorable scenes was born, the weary Hektor and his Band being greeted by Legate Ekus the two warriors standing before a burning PanPacific Empire tank and clutching each other's vambraces while their honor guards looked upon one another in an odd moment of calm amid the turmoil of the battle.
