5th 'Black Gate' Marine Raiders [ARMCO] / AOBG

“So long as our corps fields such marines, Armitage has nothing to fear from her enemies”. 5th ‘BLACK GATE’ MARINE RAIDERS COMMANDING OFFICER Maj. Toblith

For decades, the Vanduul have tortured, imprisoned and murdered the people of our lost home; invaded neighboring worlds without provocation; and threatened our world with chaos and mass destruction. The time has come to end their reign of terror. On our shoulders rests the hope of mankind.

Together we will cross the line of departure, close with those forces that choose to fight, and destroy them. We will move swiftly and aggressively against those who resist, we will treat all others with decency, demonstrating chivalry and soldierly compassion for those who have endured a lifetime under Vanduul oppression.

Chemical attack, treachery, and the use of innocents as shields can be expected from our foe, as can other dishonourable tactics. Take it all in stride and do not be cowed. Be the hunter, not the hunted: never allow your unit to be caught with its guard down. Use good judgment and act in the best interests and traditions of the Armitage Free Company.

You are the tip of the ARMCO spear. Engage your brain before you engage your weapon. Share your courage with each other as we enter this uncertain future. Keep faith in your comrades on your left and right, and the naval forces over head. Fight with a happy heart and strong spirit. For the mission’s sake, for Armitage’s sake, and for the sake of the men and women who carried the Squadron colour’s in past battles and who fought for life and never lost their nerve: Carry out your mission and keep your honour clean. Demonstrate to the galaxy that there is “No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy” than a 5th Marine Raider.
