properly appreciate the mighty
labours that ensure the armies of the
Imperium are alle to take the illumi-
nation of the Emperor to the far
‘comers of the galaxy.
Though history often tells of the
heroics of the bloodied soldier striding
through storms of gunfire or the stal-
‘wart general leading his troops from
the front with his gleaming blade held
high. few tell of the equally heroie
logistical officers or supply clerks who
ensure that the bloodied soldier has
sufficient power packs for his lasgun
or that the general has the correct
sword appropriate to his rank. Such
men are at least as important (if not
more so!) to the continued procession
of victories enjoyed by the soldiers of
the Imperial Guard. Thus. | commend
this book to the care and diligence of
every warrior of the Emperor in
expectation that a fuller understand-
ing of how the Imperial Guard is
raised. supplied, maintained and
despatched to war will result in a
greater majesty and power in His
amies.

THE GLORIOUS HISTORY OF THE
DEPARTMENTO MUNITORUM
SECTION I:
THE DuTIES AND HONOUR
OF THE DEPARTMENTO MUNITORUM
How can a man be happy if he does mot
serve his lord with his whole heart?”
‘Since the early years of the 31st Millen-
nium, the Departmento Munitoram has
provided the strategic command for the
Imperial Guard. The long and glorious
history of the Departmento Munitoram
can be traced back almost ten thousand
years, to a time where the structure of
the Imperium was very different to
what we know today’. In the earliest
days of the Great Crusade, when times
‘were simpler, all that was required of the
fighting forces of the Imperium wascon-
quest. Expeditionary fleets would set
out from Terra and take the fight to the
alien races that sought to feast on the
‘vulnerable empire of Humanity in the
wake of the Age of Strife. The Emperor.
beloved by all, set out to expunge the
xeno from the galaxy and render it unto
a realm fit for humanity to inherit.
These expeditions only carried with
them the means to fulfil a portion of
their supply needs, but simply took
what they needed from the worlds they
conquered in their travels, Upon the
compliance of a world. the expedi-
tionary fleet would move on, leaving the
assimilation of theplanet into the Impe-
Litany of the Adepts
rial fold by fleets of pioneers and
colonists. Each would, in time, becomea
fully integrated world, capable of sup-
porting itself and the growing numberof
expeditionary fleets,
Such a state of affain: could not
‘ontinue, for eventually each fleet
would exhaust its supplies and be too.
far from a compliant planet capable of
resupply. In these times, the resourees
of a campaign were organised by the
commanding officer ofthe
expeditionary fleet, a necessity of the
times, but one that was wholly unsuited
to the growing size and complexity of
the Imperium. Oft times a commander
would be expected to be war leader,
diplomat, aexactor, mediator and
logistician. Such men who could
accomplish all these feats and still have
time for the strategic demands of along
campaign were few and far between
and, as such, thenewly formed Couneil
of Terra began recruiting those whose
minds could function in such a manner,
empowering these administrators with
the duty of maintaining the Emperot’s
armies in perpetuity. This was the
IMPERIAL MUNITORUM MANUAL 7
a
‘earliest incarnation of the Departmento
Munitorum.
These first heroes of the Depart-
mento Munitorum came from every
rank and station within the expedi
tionary fleets and adepts of Terra,
sober men and women of suitable
‘temperament for such grave responsi-
Dility. Given unto them was the task
‘of ensuring that the Imperial Army's
{as the Guard was known then) need
for munitions, supply. recruitment.
training and transportation was met.
‘The records of these times are frag-
‘mentary as to the exact dates and
reasons for the change of name from
‘Army to Guard (a fact that continues
to irritate the pedants amongst the
archivists despite its insolubility) as
this was an ‘age of warriors and
heroes” not bookkeepers,
Whatever the reason. the earliest
pioneers in organising a unified supply
and recruitment structure had many
almost insurmountable obstacles to
‘overcome, not least of which was the
reluctance. of
each expedition to
relinquish control of such things to
others more qualified to administ
them. While the Imperium was
expanding from Terra and the scale of
conquered space relatively
speaking, manageable, such resistance
was,
to change was perhaps understandable,
The heroic Imperial Guard make war ably supported by the Departmento Munitorum.

quickly and could react swiftly to
evolving cireumstances, but as times
changed and the demand: of a
constantly changing battlefield
required greater and greater ingenuity
on the part of the Imperial war
machine, soldiers would go into battle
equipped with a multitude of different
weapons, ammunition stocks, armour
and training’. The very successes of the
earliest expeditions were to sound the
death knell for such objections, for soon
‘the Imperium became so large that suel
objections became untenable.
‘Even the most intransigent com-
manders soon realised that this state of
affairs could not continue and central
control of the Imperial forces (Guard)
‘was given to the Departmento Munito-
rum, From this point onwards, every
Imperial (suard regiment would look to
the Departmento Munitorum to raise,
supply, train and despatch it’. In recog-
nition of the great importance of this
work, no less than three seats amongst
the High Lords of Terra were given to
the most senior officers of the Depart-
mento Munitorum: The Lord
Commander Militant of the Imperial
Guard, The Lord Commander of the
Estate Imperium and The Master of the
Administratum. Foratime, thiseentral
command was organised from Terra,
but as the demands of a galaxy-span-
ning empire grew more strident, it soon
became clear that control of all aspects
of the Guard from one central point was
virtually imposible.
