Space Marine Chapters are led by commanders who have proved their skill and bravery in many, many battles. They lead their Chapter by example, inspiring their followers to fight with a dedication and spirit that cannot be instilled by discipline and training alone.

Depending upon its size and the importance of its mission, a Space Marine force may be lead by an experienced veteran, a Company Captain, or even the Chapter Master himself.

A Space Marine Commander may be included in your Space Marine army as an HQ choice. He may be also be accompanied by a Command Squad or a Terminator Command Squad.
