Tactical squads are the most numerous in a chapter and form the backbone of a fighting force. As their name suggests they are highly flexible having the tactical adaptability to deal with virtually any foe. Often battlefield situations require Tactical squads to be split down into two five man Combat squads. These smaller squads operate independently from one-another, using the holy bolter to dispense the Emperor's mercy.

I was already in to this whole Warhammer 40K idea before I read the book and I got curious, now that I read the book I can't wait to get a new one.
The writer really sets you inside the mind and area of the character. The stories are fascinating and diffrent so you never get bored.
I recommend this book to all fans of Warhammer 40K and all those hope like science fiction.

Graham McNeil's "Ultramarines Omnibus" is a collection of three novels and a short story set in the dark gothic universe of Warhammer 40 000. It follows the adventures of captain Uriel Ventris - leader of the Ultramarines fourth company.

Ultramarines books are full of fluff mistakes. Some of these include; Adeptus Arbites judges driving around in rhino APCs; local PDF commanders having access to power fists; the ultramarines fourth company apparently not having tanks (of any kind), terminators, devastator squads, power fists, dreadnoughts, drop pods, bikes, land speeders, and in general most of the stuff that an effective Adeptus Astartes strike force is based on; what's more, the 4th company conducts most of their attacks head-on, running into enemy gunfire with little or no tactics involved. These things might seem irrelevant to someone who isn't a diehard 40k fan, but this omnibus is - after all - aimed at diehard fans, and to us this sort of fluff mistakes can go a long way towards making or breaking a story.

That being said, "Ultramarines Omnibus" contains a lot more character development then is usual in Space Marine fiction. Even supporting characters are well fleshed-out. Uriel, Pasanius, and Learchus have genuine personality traits that set them apart from each other; their emotions, hopes, and doubts are something we - the readers - can relate to. This is most pronounced when the Ultramarines are interacting with regular humans, astartes from other chapters, and even their traitor cousins. They are all so very different, and yet they all fundamentally human.

McNeil's literary style is nothing to write home about, but it isn't particularly bad, either. The books are fast-paced, entertaining, and easy to read. If you're a fan of space marines, you should definitely read this collection.
