	In the grim darkness of the Galaxy, in the [[Ultima Segmentum]], the Civilized World of Livon lies relatively unmolested. However, it was not always so. Throughout much of the 37th Millennium, threats from the [[Maelstrom]] regularly terrorized the people of Livon. Finally having had enough of this clear defiance of the [[Imperium]]'s rule, the [[Astra Militarum]] raised a series of regiments on Livon, with the assistance of several regiments of [[Cadia]]n Shock Troopers forming the core, as was protocol.

And most terrifying to their foes, they always made a point of marching in perfect formation when doing battle. Over time, the Cadians interbred with the Livonians, to the point where purple eyes became a rare and unexpected genetic mutation.

	Livonian tactics are simple, yet efficient.

Livonian tactics are simple, yet efficient.

	However, these tactics suffer from the fact they rely very much on the individual discipline and will of the soldier, not to mention those of his superiors. This is no problem to the fanatical Livonians, whose deep faith in the God Emperor carries them through nearly any hardship. In addition, exhaustive training makes the Livonians excellent students in their particular school of warfare.

	The Blade-Brethren are considered excellent, high-quality infantry for their discipline, faith, and training. They excel in sudden, swift assaults at close range and with artillery support. In short, a mailed, mighty fist to pound the foes of the Imperium into a bloody pulp.		The Blade-Brethren are considered excellent, high-quality infantry for their discipline, faith, and training.

	The Livonian philosophy of design has been described into two words- "better" and "harder" - by certain ~~Techpriests~~ given the opportunity to manufacture their equipment. This has no finer exemplar than the primary weapon of the Blade-Brethren. Built for stopping power and accuracy over rate of fire, the Livon-pattern provides the individual infantryman with significant firepower.

	However, the average Livonian infantryman carries several changes of barrels on him for when the barrel inevitably gives out from the stresses of sustained fire with such power. It also drains it's power packs ridiculously, also requiring the Livonians to carry more spare ammunition, further weighing them down with kit.
