 SPACE MARINES
They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give themselves to me. Like clay I
shall mould them and in the furnace of war forge them. They will be of iron will
and steely muscle. In great armour shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns
will they be armed. They will be untouched by plague or disease, no sickness will
blight them. They will have tactics, strategies and machines such that no foe can
beat them in battle. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the
Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines and they shall know no fear.

Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

320
 Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
