After the Horus Heresy, the loyal Space Marine Legions were split into smaller Chapters of a thousand Space Marines each in order to prevent any one person from being able to control so many troops ever again. Over time, the number of chapters has grown, and is said to number a thousand.

This is a list of the chapters named by Games Workshop in official texts, and does not include any "home grown" chapters, though it does include the Chaos Marine Legions and Renegade chapters.

It should be noted, however, that Traitor forces may vary tremendously in size and composition compared to the Loyalist Chapters - the original Traitor Legions may comprise many thousands of troops, whilst some Chaos Warbands may only have a hundred or so members.

NOTE: This list includes 251 Loyal Chapters, discounting destroyed or missing chapters, which leaves another 749, give or take a few, unnamed.
