abstract
  • The St. Phygia Regiment was named for a locally venerated Imperial Saint, a warrior who according to legend led the campaigns to destroy the beasts and monsters that threatened the first settlers on Medici. Like the rest of the Medici Imperial Guard the unit was founded by the order of the Principe and was eventually commanded by Colonel Adriano Camerino. Their brigade received easy assignments protecting Medici trading partners in outlying systems against feral Orks and rebels tainted by Chaos. Most in the ranks saw their service as simply being a job, leading them to reckless behavior and lax discipline. That being said their fighting skills were never in doubt. When faced with an actual challenge they became a solid almost unbreakable unit- they proved this time and again during their many campaigns ending with the Tyranid invasion, buying time for the last civilian transports off Medici to escape. They withdrew after more than six days during which they lost more than 70% of their number, the highest losses of the entire first Brigade. The survivors would find their way into other Imperial Guard regiments in the Tricamerate Pact or those who had seen enough of war found other careers never again to pick up a lasgun.
