Praetor (Rank)
Praetor was a rank of Space Marine used during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy era for use in the Legiones Astartes.
Praetors were commanders second only to their Primarchs in skill, battle prowess, and intellect in their respective Legions, consisting of First Captains, Chapter Masters, Lord Commanders, Great Khans, Warsmiths, and other titles. They most commonly commanded Chapters in their Legions.[1][2]
