Here is a picture of my own personal Space Marine Terminator (1st Company) from my Space Marine Chapter known as Knights of Terra. It is created with the help of and the Space Marine and Terminator Painter from the website: [link] I love the colours and the design of the Space Marine, and it makes my own Chapter Legion look so noble and mysterious, as well as awesome and intimidating at the same time. I am currently working on the Knights of Terra's Official Fact Sheet, Chapter Legion Profile, Characters and Stories. So please look forward to them, especially if you are a Warhammer 40K fan.

Training of a Space Marine:

The training of a Space Marine is described within game literature in great detail. A Space Marine is a vastly superior warrior when compared to a normal human. This is due to a series of biological enhancements, psychological conditioning, and heavy training. The end result of creating a Space Marine produces a soldier with abilities that are so superior to those of an average human that they are best described as superhuman.

Once the recruit passes a battery of tests and challenges set by the Chapter, and the initial gene-seed implants have taken hold on his body, he is accepted into the Chapter as a Neophyte. These Neophytes will be trained in the history of the Chapter and the edicts of the Codex Astartes, while the remaining implants and modifications are made to his body.

Once a Scout begins his training and genetic modification, he is no longer permitted contact with his home or family, sworn to serve the Emperor and the Chapter until his death. The Scouts form the Tenth Company of a Chapter. The creation of a Space Marine is a dangerous process, and it is accepted that many will die during their indoctrination.

Once the Neophyte's/Scout's period of training is complete, the Neophyte will often be sent on a final challenge to prove his worth. Upon the completion of this challenge, the Neophyte will become a full member of the Chapter, and will be assigned to one of the eight Battle or Reserve companies (or Chapter equivalent).

The new "battle-brother" is presented with a boltgun and a suit of power armour, the maintenance of which is his responsibility. A newly promoted Marine is assigned to one of the chapters devastator squads as a bolter marine, to provide close support for the more battle hardened marines carrying the heavy weapons. As he gains experience and proves himself he will be allowed to carry the heavy guns himself. After exemplary service in a devastator squad a marine will be assigned to an assault squad, and from there he will be assigned to a Tactical Squad. This insures that the Tactical squads, which form the back bone off the chapter, can excel at any task.

A Tactical Marine is a Space Marine that is more equipped to fight using a variety of ranged weapons. Like their Assault Marine counterparts, the squads can be numerous and tough as nails. They usually come equpped with bolters and combat knives. However, they tend to specialize in other weapons, such as flamers, plasma rifles, rocket launchers and heavy bolters. They also tend to come equipped with frag grenades, which they use well against infantry. As with the Assault Marine squads, they can usually be found led by a Veteran Sergeant. The Chaos Space Marines also use Tactical Marines, though they have smaller access to weapons, are more vicious up close and are lead usually by aspiring champions. Space Marines that have had centuries of experience in battle, veterans usually remain with their Company, leading squads of their fellow Battle Brothers into the fray as Sergeants. However, the Marines that have most proven their worth to the Chapter are inducted into the elite First Company. it is quite common for tactical squads to be lead by a seconded veteran from the first company. On rare occasions, a less experienced Initiate will be honoured with a position in the First Company, in response to a distinguishing display of exceptional courage, tactical intelligence or prowess in battle.

Veterans:
As the powerful Tactical Dreadnought Armour (also known as Terminator Armour) is reserved for only the most distinguished Space Marines, heavily-armed Terminator Squads are typically comprised entirely of veteran characters. Terminator ArmourTactical Dreadnought ("Terminator") Armor was originally developed for working in a zero gravity environment. It is composed of a ceramite plasteel alloy as an exoskeleton with servo assisted interfaces with the users own neurological and muscular systems to enhance movement. It is the heaviest personal armor in any Imperial arsenal, able to withstand tremendous punishment, and serves as a solid heavy-weapons platform in open-field combat. The First Company of each Space Marine Chapter uses Terminator armor extensively, and only those Marines who earn the Crux Terminatus are permitted to wear it.
