THE SPACE MARINES (Angels of the God Emperor) WARHAMMER 40K LORE EXPLAINED

The Space Marines or Adeptus Astartes are amongst the foremost defenders of Humanity, the greatest of the Emperor of Mankind's warriors. They are barely Human at all, but superhuman; having been made superior in all respects by a harsh regime of genetic modification, psycho-conditioning and rigorous training.
Untouched by plague or any natural disease, they can suffer wounds that would kill a lesser being several times over, and live to fight again. Clad in ancient power armour and wielding the most potent weapons known to man, the Space Marines are terrifying foes with unyielding devotion to the Emperor and the Imperium of Man. They are the God-Emperor's Angels of Death and they do not know fear.
