Scintillan 84th Grenadiers

The Scintillan 84th Grenadiers are General Derian Arkelius' personal regiment of Imperial Guard in the Achilus Crusade. These soldiers are highly trained, modelled after the elite Imperial Guard Stormtroopers. The guardsmen, culled from the best and brightest of Scintilla's hive nobility, are outfitted to the man with full Stormtrooper Carapace Armour and the powerful Hellgun.

It is not uncommon to find at least one member of each squad equipped with a grenade launcher or some other form of heavy weaponry. Having seen minimal action during the early stages of the crusade, they were wholly unprepared for the current situation that has befallen them on Hethgard.

Even so, they fight on determined, due in no small part to their field commander Colonel Titus Rone.

Titus Rone
While General Arkelius is a master strategist and a decent combatant, Colonel Rone is the complete reverse. He knows what strategies will work to accomplish certain tasks, but he is an unsurpassed leader of men when it is time to get down to the bones of combat.

His men adore him, his peers respect him, and his superiors fear him. They feel that one day, this man who leads the common trooper so well will come to take their position from them. He currently has an uneasy working relationship with General Arkelius due to an ancient family pact that bonded the Rone noble family to the much higher ranked Arkelius family.
