'''Conscripts''' are usually people forced into military service by the state, and are used in an [[Imperial Guard]] army. They are poorly armed and armoured and have had little training in war. They usually dont do not perform well under pressure eitherin intense combat situations.
They are considered the lowest of the low. The nickname 'Gun-baby' is assigned to all conscripts by other troopers. This is sometimes true however. The [[Whiteshields]] of [[Cadia]] are young men who show a good understanding of warfare, but are too young to join the normal military. They fight alongside the regular men and gain battle experience before entering military service. They are well respected among guardsmen due to their proficiency with weapons and young determination.
