Astra Militarum

The Astra Militarum, better known as the Imperial Guard, is the steadfast backbone of the Imperium in Warhammer 40,000. Comprised of countless regiments from across the galaxy, the Astra Militarum fights not with the advanced technology or psychic powers of other factions, but with sheer numbers, unwavering discipline, and an unbreakable will to defend humanity. These soldiers are the everyday heroes who stand between the Imperium and the horrors of the galaxy.

On the tabletop, the Astra Militarum army is built around infantry hordes and powerful support units. Their Lasgun-equipped infantry squads form the core of their forces, while elite units like Scions and Ogryns provide devastating close combat power. In support, their mighty tanks, including the iconic Leman Russ and Baneblade, bring heavy firepower and resilience to the battlefield.

For players who enjoy a tactical, flexible army that focuses on massed firepower, combined arms, and effective leadership, the Astra Militarum from Games Workshop offers a formidable and rewarding experience in Warhammer 40k. With their resolve and determination, the Imperial Guard stands as the Imperium’s last defense against the galaxy’s countless threats.
