Welcome to the 11th Serval Regiment

The 11th Serval Regiment is an Astra Militarum Regiment hailing from the planet Serval, a loyal world of the Imperium known for its unwavering commitment to the Emperor’s will. Named after the planet’s native predator, the regiment embodies the serval’s speed, precision, and relentless pursuit. They excel in both lightning-fast assaults and methodical strikes, ensuring that no foe escapes their grasp. Their motto, "Nullus Effugiat, Nullus Supersit." (Let None Escape, Let None Survive.), serves as a chilling reminder of their dedication to annihilation in the Emperor’s name.

Planet of Origin: Serval

Serval is a temperate agri-world located in the Segmentum Obscurus, notable for its vast savannahs and sprawling mesas. The planet’s name derives from the native serval-feline analogs, renowned for their unparalleled speed, agility, and razor-sharp reflexes. This natural environment shaped Serval’s people into hardy survivalists who prize precision, adaptability, and swift execution of plans. The planet has maintained a sterling record in fulfilling its Imperial Tithes, producing not only agricultural surpluses but also disciplined regiments for the Astra Militarum.

Regimental Founding

The 11th Serval Regiment traces its origins to the Serval Prime Militia, a planetary defense force dedicated to safeguarding the capital, Serval Prime, long before the Imperium integrated the world into its vast war machine. When the Administratum imposed its tithe, the elite of the militia were reorganized into formal Astra Militarum regiments, and the 11th was among the first to be founded. Carrying forward the martial traditions and discipline of their militia roots, they pride themselves on their precision in battle, their rapid response capabilities, and their ability to operate in diverse warzones.

Tactical Doctrine

The 11th Serval Regiment’s tactical doctrine is built around the principles of speed, precision, and overwhelming firepower. They favor fast-moving mechanized infantry assaults, supported by devastating artillery and armored spearheads that strike swiftly and decisively. The regiment's infantry companies specialize in rapid maneuvers and precision strikes, using stealth and mobility to close with the enemy before delivering a decisive blow. Meanwhile, their armored divisions, led by the elite Steel Servals, provide the raw power needed to crush enemy strongpoints and secure battlefield dominance.

Their doctrine emphasizes the following core tenets:

  • Relentless Pursuit: No enemy is allowed to retreat unscathed; all must be eradicated.
  • Coordinated Strikes: Infantry, armor, and aerial assets work in unison to achieve rapid victory.
  • Adaptability: Regimental forces can shift from hit-and-run tactics to full-scale assaults depending on the operational needs.
  • Stealth and Speed: Recon elements ensure battlefield awareness, enabling precise execution of mission objectives.

Structure

As per Servalian Military Doctrine, and in accordance with the Departmento Munitorum, a standard Servalian Regiment is organized into specialized companies, each with a distinct role on the battlefield:

  • 1st Rifle Company : A versatile infantry force known for its discipline and adaptability in combat.

  • 2nd Rifle Company: Specializing in precision firepower and defensive operations.

  • 3rd Aeromobile Company: A highly mobile strike force capable of rapid deployment via airborne assets.

  • 4th Tank Company: The armored spearhead of the regiment, wielding the might of Rogal Dorn and Baneblade tanks to break enemy lines.
