Description
The Golden Keshig were the most prestigious of the White Scars heavy assault Jetbike squadrons and each of its Legionaries were superlative skilled riders. In battle they would encircle their foes at apparently random speeds and directions aboard the Shamshir Pattern Jetbikes before gathering into a single Kontos Power Lance piercing attack, known as a Zao, that struck through the centre of an enemy formation. Such an attack would cause numerous casualties and sowed confusion in the Golden Keshig's wake. This led them to be referred to as "Storm Ghouls" or "Sky-Beast Tamers".[1b]
Golden Keshig bikers were clad in Artificer Armour and wielded a Chainsword and Bolt Pistol. Golden Keshig Champions could also be seen wielding Thunder Hammers.[1b]
