INNOCENCE IS IRRELEVANT, YOU HAVE BEEN JUDGED GUILTY OF TRANSGRESSING THE LEX IMPERIALIS. DO NOT COMPOUND YOUR GUILT BY EVADING PUNISHMENT; AS THERE ARE GREATER CRIMES. SO ARE THERE GREATER SENTENCES.[3]

Exaction Squads are a type of formation used by the Adeptus Arbites.[1a]

Description

Exaction Squad Arbitrators[2]

Operated by Arbitrators, Exaction Squads are tasked with hunting down and seizing individual transgressors without killing them, so as to enable their incarceration, interrogation, or some other dire fate. Such Arbitrators usually ruthlessly bludgeon aside any who come between them and their target or when they doesn't work mow them down with heavy firepower. Known to be extremely reliable hunters, Exaction Squads are sometimes employed by other Imperial organisations such as the Adeptus Mechanicus, Ecclesiarchy, and Navis Nobilite.[1a]

When a target is identified, a Judge, Marshal of the Court, or Lord Marshal appoints a Proctor-Exactant to the case, and he selects the best men for the coming mission.[1a]
