Solar Hawks
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
|
The Solar Hawks are a Successor Chapter of the White Scars.[1]
Overview
The Solar Hawks are from an unknown founding, but date back to at least M35. They are known to be aggressive and noble, embodying the spirit of Jaghatai Khan.[2]
As their name suggests, they field a large number of airborne assets, regularly deploying whole wings of Stormtalons and Stormravens into battle.[2]
Notable Battles and Campaigns
- Blackfist Scalping[1]
- Tetrahric Uprising
- War of Beasts - 3 demi-companies are sent alongside the White Scars.[3]
Heraldry
The Solar Hawks honour their parent chapter, the White Scars, by painting the shoulder guard or gauntlet on their armour white. They use the same squad markings as the White Scars, with the squad markings' colour indicating company.[2]
