Galactic Marines



The Galactic Marines mainly consist of heavily armoured human troops produced by Bob Naismith for Cobalt Mercenaries and an entire range of Space Marines from Games Workshop.



The Galactic Marines originate from a large group of human worlds each with its own force of small but well trained and equipped soldiers. The Marines favour a fully enclosed armoured tactical suit able to operate in a vacuum and harsh conditions. They utilse a variety of weapons, but are generally armed with a Bolt Gun and a Bolt Pistol.

Each of the Marines home world has its own strong identity and as such, each Marines force will have its own combat colours in which they take great pride in painting their armour. The designated names for each worlds force often reflects the style of the army;
  • Red Devils
  • Blood Wolves
  • Black Angels
  • Geckoes
  • Gamma Marines
  • etc...
