Commander of Supplies            Mephistophel                             
Command Title:                        Grandmaster of Victuals
Honorific Title:                           Provider of life

Overview

An army marches on its stomach said a great historian in old terra millennia ago. Despite the advanced technology of the Astartes, supplies and provisions are the essence of successful battle. This command is tasked with every aspect of supplying Dark Angel forces as well as the fortress monastery itself.

Another mundane command at first glance, but an extremely important one. This is yet another command reserved for the aged or infirm grandmaster, but one who has the maturity and understanding of strategic planning. This has profound implications as the inconsistencies of warp travel dictates that supply fleets may arrive well before or be delayed far too long than the battle fleets. Thus accurate planning and supply allocation becomes and intricate art. Since this command simply details the planning aspect of supplies, its resources are appropriately small but its impact great in any campaign.

Duties

Another non-combatant command, but related to combat in a myriad of ways. Their duty is essentially that of maintaining adequate supplies and provisions to any dark Angel force in need.

Provisioning the Fortress
The long term planning and adequate provisioning of the Tower of Angels is the prime function. This includes the acquisition of food rations, minerals and raw materials for the Fabricius Mortis, medicines and associated essentials for the Apothecarium Medicor and war materials from the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Strike Force Supplies
Any Dark Angel strike force or mission that leaves the fortress monastery is accompanied by adequate supplies provided by this command. Matching the requests of the commanders with the release of items by the various other commands, the Commeatus Consul calculates, projects a safety margin and then provides the essentials.

This entire section is one attempt to describe the long history of the Dark Angels in a linear form. Every known piece of history and event based on GW publications has been written in my own words and linked together in a reasonably plausible manner by additional fiction. This is in no way the official GW version nor is it in anyway an attempt to infringe on their IP. There are many versions of imperial history buried within the sands of time and this is but just one of them. Read on if you dare!
