Host of Bone
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Host of Bone was one of the Hosts of the First Legion of the Legiones Astartes.[1]
Sometimes known as the Skandic Host, they were known for their wild and bloodthirsty tactics that were the signature of their Terran recruitment grounds. The Host of Bone fought not to break the enemy lines but to crush their spirits entirely, finding a weakness and cutting it apart. They were reavers without equal and gave little credence to the ideas of civilized warfare, utilizing the most terrible weapons on the battlefield.[1]
In time, the Host would be reorganized into the six Wings of the Hexagrammaton.[1]
