→Overview
Recruits are chosen from the best warriors among [[humanity]], although the recruitment process varies considerably between [[chapter]]s. Most Chapters recruit from their [[Adeptus Astartes Homeworld|homeworld]], or local [[sector]] worlds, while [[fleet-based]] chapters will often roam a particular sector of space, recruiting periodically from a few favoured worlds.
[[Feral World]]s are considered prize recruiting worlds, because of the toughness of their human inhabitants; for the same reason, [[Hive World]]s are an ideal source of potential recruits, since the gang inhabitants of the lower levels are some of the toughest, most murderous examples of humanity in the [[galaxy]]. [[Feudal World]]s are also considered to be ideal sources for potential recruits, by recruiting from the worlds' warrior nobility. Much more rarely, certain [[Civilised World]]s are also recruited from.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}
