===== [[Setting:Cloudburst/Rampart|Rampart]] System =====
Despite the idiocy of its leaders, the Oglith military is perfectly capable of taking the fight to the enemy, no matter how long they’ve been prevented from doing so.

* 5th Oglith Warrior Arctic Warfare Regiment “Abominators”: While the Imperium usually relies on Ice World regiments to fight in cold areas, some Imperial cities are built in polar areas of warmer worlds, and the Oglith 5th is a specialist unit that has just such an origin.  The regiment is only two hundred years old, but it has already had four grueling, decade-long wars to its name, all of them against the Pestilent Children warband of Nurglites that dwell in the clouds of heavy asteroid matter between the Naxos and Drumnos Sectors.  The Cloudburst Regiment is stationed there because the Pestilent Children often raid nearby worlds for food and ammo, lacking any Forge Ships or Hydroponic Barques to feed themselves.  The Abominators have driven off their opponents every time, though not without brutal losses.  The Munitorum swallows the cost of shipping in all those extra troops instead of relying on local recruitment because of the fear of possible Chaos corruption of the Agri-worlds’ populations.
* 1st Oglith Jaegers Elite Scion Regiment: Technically not a regiment at all, but a Tempestor unit of the Astra Militarum and a product of the elite Schola Progenum of Rampart, the 1st Oglith Scions are a rightfully feared force of destruction on the battlefield.  They are this both for their exceptional field medical skills that keeps their troops mobile after injury and because they have more clocked live combat hours than any other Scion unit for a hundred light years.  Thanks to the frequent activity of pirates and raiders on the outermost edges of the entire Imperium, the 1st Elite field against small-scale incursions constantly, using a mixture of Imperial Navy Fast Clippers and upgraded freighters to move their thousands of men from Oglith to wherever they may be needed.  They have fought alongside Inquisitors of two Ordos in the last century alone, and fought shoulder to shoulder with the Blue Daggers against the Glasians on four occasions, each one ending in Imperial victory.
