The 3rd Imperial Legion is an Imperial Army unit that was created during the Army restructure of Year 8. The unit quickly established itself as a key unit of the Emperor's Army, having overcome turbulent trials, and has since served the Empire with great skill and dedication. 3IL is under the direct command of Lieutenant Colonel Nathaniel Durane.

Name and Motto
The name of the 3rd Imperial Legion used to be the Shadow Guards before Legion nicknames were transferred to the Brigade level. The Legion prides itself in its proficiency in covert operations, and this is reflected in their old Legionary motto: 'Fear what lurks in the Shadows'. With the transfer of the name 'Shadow Guards' to 3BDE, the Legion's assault brigade, the Legionary motto was also transferred to the unit as well.
Additionally, the 6th Brigade "Pathfinders" is also a newly implemented name for the Brigade, and also a new unit formed from the past remants of the 3rd Imperial Legion when it was known just as the 3rd Imperial Legion, and when it lacked the structure it currently has. At this moment in time, the history of the 6th Brigade, Pathfinders is yet to be written.
3rd Imperial Legionnaires specialize in doing quietly what the other Legions do with gusto, that is: preserve Imperial law and order, while destroying the enemy's will to fight the Empire. Their modus operandi more than often makes them the unsung heroes of the Imperial Army, but they are appreciated for their excellent record of service to the New Order nonetheless.
