Hey there, fellow Heresy fans! Let me take you on a journey back to the grim battlefields of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy with a fresh, action-packed Exemplary Battles PDF. This time, we’re diving into the Assault on Castrum Velx, a thrilling engagement where the Blood Angels rush to the Ultramarines’ aid to defend a crucial gene-seed store from the sinister Night Lords.
The Battle Unfolds
Setting the Stage: Right after the infamous betrayal at Calth, the Ultramarines are in desperate need of support. Enter the Blood Angels, who storm in to fend off the Night Lords. These sons of Curze are no pushovers, embodying the dark terror their legion is known for. The Blood Angels have to pull out all the stops to protect the gene-seed store.
The Ikisat – Sanguinary Guard to the Rescue: Victory for the Blood Angels hinges on the deployment of their elite unit, the Sanguinary Guard, also known as the Ikisat or the Burning Ones. These are the crème de la crème of the Blood Angels, handpicked to guard their primarch, Sanguinius. These warriors are decked out in dazzling golden artificer armor, equipped with Legion Warhawk jump packs, and wielding powerful Perdition weapons.
Tactical Edge
Sanguinary Guard Capabilities:
- Bodyguards Extraordinaire: When Sanguinius takes to the battlefield, these guys form his retinue, becoming even more ferocious when their primarch is wounded.
- Versatile Command: They can also team up with a Praetor or another Master of the Legion, boosting their allies’ combat prowess by leading through sheer excellence.
