'''Fleet Based''' refers to [[Space Marine Chapter]]s not based on a [[Adeptus Astartes Homeworld|homeworldHomeworld]]. They possess only a [[Space Marine Fleet|fleet]], one of the fleet ships usually serving as the [[Fortress Monastery]]. They are naturally among the most mobile Chapters. Some fleet-based Chapters are also called '''Crusade Chapters'''.{{Cite This}}
Many Chapters who rebelled at some point but were granted forgiveness are fleet-based crusade Chapters because they were forced to forfeit their homeworld[[Adeptus Astartes Homeworld|Homeworld]].{{Cite This}}
