Skitarius regiments (plural "skitarii") are organized into hyperasts (infantry), sagitarii (heavy weapons veterans) and cataphracti (vehicle operators, who are considered especially blessed by the Machine God).
The exact denomination of ranks varies from world to world, but generally appear to follow similar lines to the Imperial Guard, with sergeants, junior officers and senior officers. A platoon is known as a "century" (don't ask me why - it's in an old copy of the Citadel Journal I was reading for research a while back) and is led by a captain (not a centurion, note). Centuries are organized into Maniples (companies) which form part of a Legion (regiment).
