The '''Imperial Army''' (also known as the '''Imperialis Auxilia''' in [[High Gothic]]{{Fn|20}}) was the largest military force in the early Imperium, and was founded during the early [[Great Crusade]] to fill the need for more manpower to support the [[Space Marine Legion|Astartes Legions]], and quickly was used to garrison worlds, perform sieges, and mass invasions{{Fn|1}}. The '''[[Imperialis Armada]]''' was the fleet subset of the Imperial Army and was subordinate to it{{Fn|2x}}, and both of them were subordinate to the [[Space Marines|Astartes]] command structure{{Fn|1}}.
