Space Marine Outrider
This article is about the Heresy-era Outriders; for the Present-day Outriders, see Primaris Outrider. |
Outriders were a type of specialist Space Marine squad used during the Great Crusade and Horus Heresy.
These were specialized and mechanized reconnaissance squads commonly transported in Bikes and scramblers designed for use on rugged terrain. Used primarily for rapid encirclement and hit-and-run attacks, the chief advantage of Outriders is speed and the ability to go where heavier vehicles could not.[1]
