Stronghold: Terra · Segmentum Solar

Fig. 1 · Stronghold on the map

The Geno Five-Two Chiliad is a famed regiment of the Imperial Army, raised on Terra in the Unification Wars, one of the “Old Hundred” and possibly in part an inspiration for the Emperor’s Primarch project. A gene regiment that bred most of its people by genetic engineering; the rank of “Uxor” (command of companies, with the psychic gift “’cept”) could be held only by women. Most of it vanished on 42 Hydra Tertius; remnants were seen at the Siege of Terra.
