Description

Insignium Astartes is the most comprehensive reference ever produced on the colours, insignia, heraldry, and organisational markings of the Space Marine Chapters of Warhammer 40,000. Using the Ultramarines as its prime example and foundation, this beautifully illustrated full-colour sourcebook covers unit markings, chapter organisation and hierarchy, vehicle markings, specialist troop types, and the deep heraldic traditions that define Codex Astartes Chapters. Written by Games Workshop's longtime head of intellectual property Alan Merrett, with full-colour illustrations by Neil Hodgson and Darius Hinks, Insignium Astartes explains the significance, history, and complexity of the Space Marines' incredible heraldic costume traditions — from the colour coding of tactical, devastator, and assault squads to the markings of company Veterans, Sergeants, and Captains. An essential reference for painters, modellers, lore enthusiasts, and anyone with a serious interest in the Adeptus Astartes.

Collectible Value

Insignium Astartes has been out of print for many years and has never been updated or republished in a new edition. As the definitive canonical reference for Space Marine heraldry and chapter markings — cited extensively by hobbyists, painters, and lore writers for over two decades — it commands a consistent and strong secondary market premium.
