The '''Retributors''' are a [[Chapter]] of [[Space Marine]]s that has faced against many threats to the [[Imperium of Man]], including hordes of foes, cunning witchcraft, and terrifying unknown technologies.{{Fn|1}} They operate primarily along the [[Eastern Fringe]].{{Fn|Notes3}}.
==Overview==
Described as relentless, efficient, and distant, they are known for their stern and austere nature who are more interested in battlefield success than glory. Their doctrine maintains that their forces are applied as widely as possible across a theatre, operating in small self-sufficient units tasked with eliminating as many as high-risk targets as possible. Their "Impulsor" Squads are leaders in this strategy and are known to work in a highly independent fashion with other supporting Imperial elements.{{Fn|Notes3}}
==Known Engagements==

The Retributors were created by Syama Pederson for the fan film ''[[Astartes (Animation)|Astartes]]''. They were purely a fan work until 2021, when Games Workshop gave the ''Astartes'' project official support.{{Fn|2}}
