The actual terms used for these fighting units, their size, and equipment can vary between regiments. Each company can consist of a number of further sub-units again called platoons, each platoon in turn being made of a number of individual squads of Guardsmen. The size and composition of Imperial Guard regiments is not standardised across the Imperium though the average strength at founding is about a thousand soldiers, that number can vary enormously between regiments, with some only a few hundred strong at founding-strength, whilst others possess tens of thousands of fighting troops.Ī regiment is divided into a number of fighting units commonly called companies, each with a command staff of its own.
A regiment is the primary organisational unit of the Imperial Guard.
