Imagine a [[Commissar]]. Scary guy, big sword, nice [[hat]]. Now imagine a full regiment of Commissars, all with their peaked caps shadowing their face as they all snarl and raise their [[lasgun]]s at the same time. I don't think you'll need to imagine shitting your pants. You certainly won't have trouble picturing the '''Terrax Guard'''.

Hosting a huge [[Schola Progenium]] facility called the Schola Excubitos, Terrax ensures a system of elite and disciplined training and fancy uniforms to a similar extent to the [[Mordian Iron Guard]]. While it's hard to speculate on what additional training they receive, it's probably likely that they practice their markmanship by firing at a range of five centimeters with a bolt pistol at “volunteers” from their [[penal legion]]s.

Also notable for preferring to use meltaguns as squad special weapons and lascannons as support weapons. Which makes sense as their carapace armor means your anti-infantry weapons won't do much, meaning vehicles are the only real threat to them and besides that the lascannons can waste any enemy anti-infantry support weapons quickly.

They were present during the [[Macharian Crusade]], but took significant damage from friendly fire in the form of both the [[Star Phantoms]] and [[Marines Malevolent]] - the former of which was declared "not [[heresy]]," but did sideline both groups from further active duty in the crusade.
The 49th Terrax Guard appears much later, in Kastorel-Novem, when they are forced to evacuate during the Orks initial takeover of the planet.

Sadly, that's about it that's out there on them, despite being a logical extreme of the iconic popularity of the [[Commissar]] to [[40K]] - as the ancient artwork on this page can attest.
