Caledonian Forces

Writer's picture: FalconecooseFalconecoose

51st Caledonian (Highland) Division


The 51st is one of the few large standing formations of its type within the Imperium, as it is mainly only Caledonia that deploys her troops in such a structure. The 51st has a long and proud history of service alongside the 52nd in almost every sector of the Imperium against every foe that has thrown them self against the Imperium of man.

42nd Black Watch Battalion


The 42nd Caledonian Regiment, like all Caledonian Regiments, is one of the few regiments from a planetary system that actively reinforces a regiment post-deployment of the regiment, another notable example of this would be Vostroyan Firstborn. Due to this fact, the 42nd has a long and decorated history of the campaigns and opponents it has fought from traitors and heretics to Necrons to the Tyranid Hives along with Chaos Space marines and Demons.
