Shield Captain
unit composition: 1 Shield Captain		 175 Points

Elevated both through the trust of their peers and by the Emperor's direct approval, Shield Captains are warriors of not only consummate and superhuman ability but also rare insight, acumen and knowledge. Afforded the finest of the Imperium's arms, each of these legendary fighters commands the Legio Custodes against all manner of threats, and whether their Shield Company numbers a handful of Sodalities detached to mete out the Emperor's judgement or over a hundred warriors assembled for mass battle, they bear with them the might and power of the Legio manifested in a single indomitable warrior.
