Calixian Marines
The Calixis Sector has a limited number of Astartes available:
GREEN KNIGHTS
Only native Chapter. Fleet-based (homeworld destroyed). Aestimate: 200 Brother-Marines. Low: 100. High: 400. Heavily involved with the Deathwatch; hence the uncertain aestimate. Considerable fleet assets.
BLACK TEMPLARS
Has one major and several minor Crusades going in the extended area (Finial and surrounding sectors). Aestimate: 200. Low: 50. High: 500. There are no doubt 5 full companies of Black Templars engaged in fighting the Reaving, but most seem occupied elsewhere (i.e. not in Calixis).
TIGERS ARGENT
Based in Finial. Aestimate: 200. Low: 0. High: <1000. Fully engaged with the main Reaving, but elements could conceivably try to strike back at the Word Bearers to avenge the loss of the Strike Cruiser and it's marine company.
DEATH EAGLES
Vague reports. Aestimate: 0 Low: 0. High: 500+. Unverfiied reports has the relatively unknown Death Eagles Chapter turning up in the 6th Circle of Finial. They may have ties to the Black Templars or Tigers Argent. If they are present at all it's unlikely they bring more than approx. 500 men - and they will likely end up in the Finial meat-grinder.
