A Chapter Master is the foremost leader of a Chapter of Space Marines. He is assisted in his position of leadership by the Chief Librarian and a Chaplain in most cases. A Chapter Master possesses centuries of battle experience and is invariably highly skilled in tactics, leadership and all kinds of combat.
The Chapter Master is responsible for maintaining the traditions of the Chapter. He is often the planetary governor of the Chapter's Home world and recruiting worlds, giving him further responsibility.
The title "Chapter Master" is not consistent throughout the Imperium though. Some Chapters use different titles to denote the Chapter's leader. The most notable titles are: "Supreme Grand Master" (Dark Angels), "Grand Master" (various Chapters), "Great Wolf" (Space Wolves), and "High Marshal" (Black Templar).
There are several famous Chapter Masters within the Adeptus Astartes. but in battle, no chapter master is greater then any other, for they are fighting for the same cause in the grander scheme of things. Chapter masters are a useful resource. Though it is rare that a chapter master must set foot on the battlefield, their experience and battle prowess can change the course of a battle in this war torn age of the 41st millenium.
