The **Myrr 1st Royal Guard** is the most elite regiment of Astra Militarum soldiers on the imperial planet of Myrr. They were created to provide security for the top-level citizens of Myrr and to provide counter-intelligence and surveillance on the planet's population.

## History

The 1st Royal Guards of Myrr is located in the planet of Myrr, which is located inside the Segmentum Tempestus sector. The unit has went through countless coups, defending the leadership of the planet as well as purging heretical citizens of Myrr. The 1st Royal Guards emphasizes on counter-intelligence and surveillance tactics to monitor the population.

## Notable Operations

* **Assasination of Minister Mal 850.M41** - During 850.M41, a group of high level individuals located in Sector 1A was planning to launch a coup to take over the Ministry of Culture. With Minister Mal overseeing the group, she intends to take the seat in order to change the rigid culture of Myrr to a more glamourous and alluring planet. However, counter intelligence units in Group "A" were tipped off by Minister Mal's opposition and sent marksmen and several squads to Minister Mal's residence. Lord Jefferies gave the order and Minister Mal was shot, various squads of Group "A" were sent to arrest the other group members of the coup, the group members were later sentenced to hard labour in the lower levels of Myrr.

## Regimental Organization

The Royal Guard consists of three groups of men each with their own specific objectives to fulfill on a daily basis:

* **Group "A"**: Group "A" is tasked to do counter intelligence and surveillance for the Ministeries located in Sector 1A.

* **Group "B"**: Group "B" is tasked with the security of upper levels of the Industrial Zone in Sector 1B. Their objectives is to make sure all employers of the industrial zone meets the standards of the Imperium and that the production of the local Industry does not falter.

## Equipment

The 1st Royal Guards of Myrr used mainly locally produced firearms as well as imported arms from other Imperial planets nearby. Some of these locally produced firearms includes the Myrrian-Pattern Lasgun as well as heavier equipment such as the Myrrian-Pattern Guided Missile Launcher which is used by Group "C".

* **Myrrian Pattern Helmet** - The standard Myrrian Pattern helmet provides excellent protection ot the vulnerable cranial area. Injuries to this region of the body are invariably fatal and thus maximum effort is made to avoid such wounds. Where such injuries are unavoidable, the use of the Cadian Pattern Helmet offers the best protection from exploding shrapnel and fragmentation. Their helmets provide excellent protection when the Royal Guard must fight on a world whose atmosphere or regions are inimical to the human respiratory tract. This pattern's visor lenses help to prevent glare and blindness from the elements. When fitted with a fully compatible rebreather, it provides an excellent defence against most commonly-encountered toxic gases and pollutants as well as allowing the soldier to operate in airless environments for limited periods. It has also proven useful against biological plague weapons.

* **Myrrian Imperial Guard Uniform**

* **Flak Armor** - The most common personal protection worn by members of the Royal Guard is flak armour. Cheap and easy to produce, flak armour comprises several layers of ablative thermoplast materials and impact absorbent carbifibres. For additional protection Carapace Armour is sometimes worn. Made up of large rigid plates of armaplas or Ceramite-moulded to fit the bearer, Carapace Armour provides better protection than standard Flak Armour, but is bulky and heavy and really only suited to units certain to be under the heaviest fire, such as assault units or those involved in urban operations.

* **Load Bearing Equipment *- A rigid Myrrian leather belt thta holds additional powerpacks, rations, combat knife and grenades****.*

* **Gas Mask** - A simple breathing mask that covers the nose and mouth or entire face, these offer much better protection than filtration plugs.

* **Basic Toolkit**

* **Mess Kit & Water Canteen**

* **Blanket & Sleep Bag**

* **Rechargeable Lamp-Pack** - Sturdy and reliable, glow-globes illuminate many an Imperial paveway and cathedral. Most portable ones are roughly the size of a clenched fist and can shine strong, yellowish light a dozen or so metres in width, lasting roughly five hours before their power pack needs recharging or replacing.

* **Grooming Kit**
