No, the God Emperor of Mankind did, using his own DNA he created 20 Primarchs, who in turn created the Space Marines.

Answer It depends what you like. If you have read the background fluff about one or the other and liked it, or you find them more interesting in general pick them.I would say that Space marines are probably the best starter army as Imperial guard play style can get more complex.

Who is stronger Imperial guard or spacemarine?

man for man the space marines are stronger, they are augmented, generaly fielded with some form of power armor, and have many hundreds of years of combat experience, while an imperial guardsman is armored with light flak armor and issued only a lasgun. however the imperial guard gains strength through superior numbers, and massively powerfull and numerous armored vehicles. the imperial guardsmen in the universe outnumber the space marines several hundred thousand to one. however in one on one combat an individual space marine would almost certinly be more powerfull, on the other hand in battalion level combat the guard may be better prepared


Why do the Space Marines Turn on The Imperial Guard?

Space Marines and Guard don't turn on each other. Some Guard and Marines are declared heretics by the Inquisition. That means they no longer fight for the Emperor and are either renegades (which can still be called on in times of need) or have fallen to the Dark Gods of Chaos. You also must keep in mind that most Guardsmen have never seen a Space Marine (or an Asartes as they call them) they have heard of them, but if a Guardsman regiment that has heard rumors of the arch enemy being there with Chaos Space Marines and has never seen an Asartes before will fire on any thing that they think looks like a Heretic to them. If the Guard regiment fired on a loyal Space Marine strike force they would then be declared Hereticus and immediately killed.

Who is better space marine or imperial guard?

Definitely Space Marines. I mean, it's not as though Games Workshop has spent 20 years balancing the armies, nor is it the case that the armies specialize in different things, giving each one advantages and disadvantages concurrent with the context of the battle. Nope, definitely Space Marines.


Which Warhammer 40k Races are most popular?

Space Marines are the most popular faction, within the Space Marine faction the Ultramarine chapter are the most used as they are Games Workshops poster boys. After the Space Marines it would be Chaos Space Marines and Orcs then Imperial Guard especially after the release of their new codex. Tyranids will have a new codex in January so their popularity may rise and by far the least played faction would be the Dark Eldar, this is because they haven't had a new codex or and significant update since about 1998


What is the best Allegiance in warhammer 40k?

well maybe Space Marines and Imperial Guard for an Apocolyps battle.Space Marines and tough and perform great in all areas, they can be good for pushing the enemy back with massive fire power and ordance from a whirlwind, they can also be equipped with powerful wargear.Imperial Guard can surround an enemy and bombard them with lasgun fire. and they have (in my oppinion) the greatest amour avalible. from multiple variteys of Baneblades for every situation. Plus a few Battalisks can completely destroy an enemies formation and crush their moral so when the Leman Russ and Baneblades roll in the enemy is totally unprepared for the devistation that is about to unfold.There are probbably better allegiances available for your different stratagys. but Space Marines and imperial Guard works perfectly for my type of game play.


Why can you only be two races in multiplayer in Dawn of War Dark Crusade?

You must have the previous games to play the other races. With the Original you get the Space Marines, Eldar, Chaos and the Orks. Winter Assault you get Imperial guard. With Soulstorm you get the Sisters of Battle and the Dark Eldar.
