One of the the largest and most powerful factions in the galaxy, The Imperium is nonetheless an empire [[TheEternalChurchill under constant siege]] from the rival powers of the galaxy. But its greatest threats come from within, in the form of heretics undermining the authority of High Lords of Terra or the ChurchMilitant, recidivists who understandably want to get the hell out from under the heel of such an oppressive government, or mutants and rogue [[PsychicPowers psykers]] who threaten the purity of the human race itself. This siege mentality makes the Imperium a paranoid and superstitious place, but also keeps much of the populace in line -- as awful as their government is, it's the only thing that can keep them alive. At least thats what the various higher ups like to believe...

** ...kind of. Since Warhammer 40K's magic system is based on ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve, belief can have power. It should be noted that while belief isn't treated nicely, outright atheism is treated as even worse. The reason no one saw the Horus Heresy coming and didn't believe it once it started was because the Imperial Way had outlawed all belief in demons, magic, etc.

On the tabletop, Space Marines are a well-rounded and forgiving army. They are a very popular starting army, coming in the box sets and with a decent ten-man squad coming in at £19.95/$35. The average Space Marine is very effective in both ranged and close combat, not to mention as well-armed and -armored as most armies' elite soldiers. Needless to say, ''Space Marine'' elite soldiers are terrifying prospects to face, be they veteran marines in hulking nigh-invulnerable armor, or critically-wounded soldiers entombed in a walking tank. However, this makes Space Marines expensive in terms of point costs, so they are almost always outnumbered by their opponents. Not that this should particularly worry them...
