Steel Rain

Space Marines Portal

Steel Rain is a tactic that is detailed in the Codex Astartes which involves the use of drop pods deploying Space Marines anywhere on the battlefield. This provides less reliance on base defences and relies more on Battle Brothers being held in the ships above the planet, ready to be deployed at a moment's notice, whether behind enemy positions or within the small Space Marine base itself.^[1]
