The Imperial Guard is one of the most highly trained, well equipped, and potent fighting forces in the entire world, with the equipment of the Imperial Guard considered extremely effective and potent technological breakthroughs which cost far too much to equip the entire military with. Each of the Imperial Guard divisions operates as a mechanzied force, with 10,000 of the soldiers carried to battle in infantry fighting vehicles, supported by 500 Shir III MBTs.
