Heroes Prefer Swords: His default weapon and two of his weapon wargears give him a sword.

Elite Mooks: Can call in a squad of Assault Terminators, the strongest melee squad in the game.

Combined with Battle Cry, it sends enemy troops flying with each swing.

Drop the Hammer: His Thunder Hammer wargear gives him a massive two-handed hammer.

BFG: If you give him Terminator armor, he can use an assault cannon.

Beehive Barrier: The Iron Halo wargear gives him one which causes received damage to drain his energy instead while active.

He can improve it by buying the Power Sword wargear.

Battle Cry: His starting ability, which makes his melee attacks more dangerous and inspires his allies to do more damage.

Badass Cape: Depending on his equips he will have one.

His unique global abilities are For the Emperor, a short damage buff to a target unit, and the Assault Terminator call-in, which teleports a squad of Assault Terminators to the battlefield. His wargear increases his ability to support his units, his ability to move around the battlefield, and his prowess in close combat. His starting skill, Battle Cry, makes all of his melee attacks special attacks to knock down enemy units, and buffs the damage of allied units in a radius for each hit. My faith is my shield! My fury is my sword!Ī tanky, melee-oriented hero, the Force Commander is focused around fighting in the front line. Global abilities shared by all the Space Marine heroes are the Drop Pod, which sends a drop pod to the battlefield from an orbiting battle barge to reinforce all squads in the landing area and provide a constant reinforcement point around the pod, Terminator call-in, which teleports a squad of ranged Terminators to the battlefield, and the Orbital Bombardment, which calls down an strike from an orbiting battle barge in the form of three beams which levitate and damage all units caught in their radius before exploding, dealing massive damage and throwing aside those units.

However, once they reach the late game and can deploy powerful units such as Terminators and the Land Raider Redeemer, the Space Marines become truly devastating.

Due to much of their units being heavy infantry, they are quite durable, but due to their early game expense, they will almost always be outnumbered, which has the side effect of reducing their bleed. The Space Marines are a generalist, Jack-of-All-Stats faction.
