Editing Children of Armok (section)

==Specialist Ranks==
The Children have 4 distinct ranks of 'Officer' relevant to their particular set of strategies. All officers above sergeant will rotate through training in each of the 4 roles, whereby they can pick a specialisation, or put themselves onto rotation. 

Being on rotation means that the marine will be given command in one of the 4 areas, on a case-by-case basis, meaning a Child of Armok officer on rotation could be put on political operations for one campaign, then in the next might be assigned to guerrilla operations, or counter-intelligence the next.
Rotation is generally only staffed by those who display equal talents in all areas, and are usually candidates for higher command later on. 

- 
'''GO2 - Guerrilla Operations Officer'''  - in charge of insurgencies, working with locals, and recruiting networks on the ground. Also responsible for on the ground political based long operations that require shooting and combat.

'''CIO - Counter Intelligence Officer''' - in charge of keeping the Children's operation secure, and managing exposure to outside influences. Deals with enemy spies, and internal informants recruited by the legion.

'''PO2 - Political Operations Officer''' - In charge of political interactions, usually of a subtle nature, but also small-scale or contained/controlled operations. In charge of political analysis, and interactions of the areas they are based in. Requires above average (by the Children's standard) abilities with language and persuasion.

'''ICO - Intelligence Case Officer''' - In charge of gathering intelligence for the Children. They tend to operate alone, or with a small squad, and  are often isolated from the rest of the 'body' they are assigned to. They are responsible for setting up networks, and are usually those who make the initial connections with Xenos/Rogue Traders on behalf of the legion, before passing them off to a PO2.


The Children also have 2 special roles they assign to Marines who display impressive talents in the required areas.

1 -  'Emissarius', or legion liasons - these individuals have a good grasp of both intelligence, and counter-intelligence, but excel in political interactions, and have a great deal of diplomatic and inter-personal skill. 
They are assigned to other Space Marine Legions, and travel with them, working as a point of contact between the legion they are attached to and the Children, usually feeding intelligence and messages to the Primarchs/Leaders they are attached with. They also spy passively on the legion they are attached to, obtaining in depth intelligence on all the key individuals, legion and unit strengths, and current actions the attached legion is undertaking. They don't always find out everything, but that isn't their role - that is covered by the Childrens non-marine agents and ICO's.

2 -  The Insidiators, who are explained below.
