Эмм, то есть, используют ли их как пушечное мясо? Шлют ли их на смерть большими рядами или всё таки предпринимают экономию человеческого ресурса?

TheAstra Militarum is not a precise, swift tool of war like an Adeptus Astartes strike force. Instead it is a heavy assemblage ofdestruction, used to bludgeon a foe into oblivion over the course of a bloody campaign. Many such conflicts take decades, or even
centuries, to complete, but the masters of the Astra Militarum are quite happy to wage costly wars of attrition. In many ways it is their
signature style of warfare.
Although an individual Imperial Guardsman can never be the
equal of a Space Marine, there are often tens of thousands of men in each regiment. With literally trillions of new recruits
tithed to the Astra Militarum each year, their commanders have a
functionally infinite amount of manpower to draw upon. Quantity
is a vital asset in itself; in essence, the limit of the Imperial Guard’s
power is not the number of troops it can call upon, but the
complex logistics in gathering them for battle, especially when
the Imperium is riven by warp tempests. It has been known for
unscrupulous commanders to send in so many waves of infantry
that the enemy is battered apart by a living tide. Commander
Chenkov of Valhalla once took an impregnable fortress by sending
his men, the Tundra Wolves, to their deaths in an unending stream.
Towards the end of the siege, the corpses of the soldiers sent in the
first waves formed a fleshy ramp up to the battlements for their
brethren to assault.
Though those conscripted to the Astra Militarum hail from
a million different worlds, each Imperial Guard regiment
adheres closely to the Tactica Imperium. They are hence largely
uniform in their composition, and usually keyed to a particular
role. Most infantry regiments, for example, contain no heavy
artillery, whilst most armoured regiments contain no infantry.
As a result, regiments are usually required to work together in
formations known as battle groups or task forces. This practice
of institutionalised division dates back to the days following
the Horus Heresy, when the Legions of the Space Marines were
reduced to far smaller Chapters to prevent them becoming too
much of a threat should they be corrupted. At much the same time,
it was decreed that Imperial Guard regiments should be separate,
yet interdependent, so that any rebellions could be quickly isolated
and quashed, leaving the rest of the military machine to continue
its duties.
TheTactica Imperium sets down a basic template around which
infantry regiments are organised. Each is split into companies, with
each company under the command of a senior officer. The number
of companies in a regiment varies greatly, but most regiments are
comprised of between three and twenty companies. Companies are further divided into platoons, typically between three and six.
Platoons consist of a number of ten-man squads, usually two to
five, led by a five-man command squad, but they can also include
special weapons squads, heavy weapons squads, and conscripts
barely out of basic training. A full platoon can number well over a hundred men, and a full-strength regiment can number in the tens
of thousands. Terms and specific rank names vary significantly. While the
regimental commander is normally a colonel, the culture from
which he is drawn might use an entirely different term, ranging
from ‘Knight Magnificent’ to ‘Chief Hetman’ to ‘Marquis
Battalio.’ Provided it can fight effectively with standard issue
lasguns, bayonets and flak armour, each regiment is allowed
to keep its warrior culture and identity, the better to ensure
cohesion and bonds of loyalty. In this way entire cultures can be
rapidly recruited.
This hierarchy-based structure is maintained in other types
of regiment. In a tank regiment, for example, the individual
Guardsmen form tank crews, with each tank taking the place
of a squad as the basic unit. These are formed into squadrons,
led by a command tank, and organised into tank companies, a number of which make up an armoured regiment. In the rare but devastatingly powerful super-heavy tank regiments, each
individual tank is the equivalent of a platoon, meaning that such
a regiment will usually only number nine to twelve super-heavy
tanks in addition to its numerous supply and service vehicles. Such
regiments are rarely deployed en masse, but are usually split into
smaller squadrons of super-heavy tanks and assigned as armoured
support to more conventional regiments.
The basic Astra Militarum regiment is also supported by many
specialist units that are part of the wider Departmento Munitorum.
These are personnel supplied by auxiliary institutions that have
long been a part of the Imperium’s military bedrock. Amongst
them are the Schola Progenium, source of the iron-willed
Commissars and the elite soldiery of the Militarum Tempestus;
the Scholastica Psykana, which provides soul-bound psykers
reliable enough to serve in the Emperor’s armies; and the
Abhuman Auxilla, which oversees the military contributions of
Ratlings, Ogryns and other such genetic offshoots of Humanity.
The regimental specialists from the Departmento Munitorum are
further bolstered by elements from the wider Imperium. These
include priests of the Adeptus Ministorum, who see to the spiritual
reinforcement of the infantry, and the Enginseers and servitors
of the Adeptus Mechanicus, who tend to the Imperial Guard’s war machines.
