Tacticians through out the imperium noticed that their tactics are similar to the dusk raiders of the death guard legion during the Great crusade may be a clue that the founders of the chapter were death guard loyalists and thast the chapter primarily attack at the crack of dawn and dusk while screaming their battle cries to instill panic and fear with large numbers of devastators, tactical and dreadnought marines to overwhelm their foes with overwhelming numbers and firepower with little to know regards of casualty as they charge at their enemy's as a near unstoppable tide of steel and cerimite. Members of the chapter shows a abnormal level of endurance in that their able to shaken of wounds that would kill a normal astarites allowing them to survive longer in the battlefield. When the chapter takes in trench warfare the chapter will cut the enemy forces off of supplies and will wait till there near depletion of munitions so that the astarties can go for the kill or the enemy come to the. Another tactic the chapter is known is the used of terror tactics by leaving dismembered corpses around in enemy positions to break enemy moral.
