Editing Forces of the Emperor's Nightmare (section)

==Assault Squad==

Should an Emperor's Nightmare elect to remain in Battlegroup Primus he will likely find himself serving periodically as an Assault Marine. Assault Squads are not a permenant body within the Nightmares, and are rather raised from Primus' tactical pool when and where needed. It is a position Primus marines relish, as it is hard to find a greater definition of Shock and Awe than to crash into the enemy amidst the furious roars of the squad's jump packs, reducing the unprepared enemy to so much red ruin in short order.

Assault Squads are shunned by Battlegroup Secundus, and although they understand the need for such squads (and are indeed trained to go to war similarly) they view it as a clumsy hammerblow, flashy and noisy but in the end about as subtle as a punch to the face. Primus scorns this view, insisting that an Assault Squad in the right place, at the right time can change the course of wars.
