Editing Thunder Kings (section)

==Specialist Troops==

*'''''Déith Cernun''''': The "Horned Gods". They are the greatest veterans of the 1st Grand Company, which was formed mostly from members of Brennus' personal tribe. All were equipped with Terminator armor and served as both the Primarch's bodyguard and the most elite shock troops of the legion. When a foe resisted the Thunder King's strategies for too long, the Horned Gods were teleported in to end resistance as quickly and as thoroughly as possible. In keeping with the Legion's generalist strategy, these veterans each had a mighty personal arsenal, containing weapons fit for any situation; they usually carried as much of this arsenal as possible, to allow for shifting needs in battle. The Horned Gods were named both for the rite they had to undertake to prove they were worthy to join, and because of their appearance; anyone wishing to join had to hunt and kill an Alessian mega-stag, with only a spear, a sling, and a pouch of stones, and they wore the stag's antlers on their helmets as a sign of their rank.  Unusually, the Gods always had a dedicated apothecary, one of the Legion's Filid, and a dedicated Librarian of the Silverhands.

*'''''Awenyddion ''''': "Inspired Ones". The most decorated, veteran Legionaries under each Dunn Rig's command. The armaments of the Awenyddion varied depending on which clan and tribe they served with. Regardless of their tribe, each was a truly superlative warrior.

*'''''Drakk Fal''''':  "Dragonblooded." The Drakk Fal are a high-speed rapid reaction force said to be first formed during the Crannórga campaign. Their name comes from the Alessian Sea Dragon, a cruel and merciless creature that strikes with no warning or hesitation. They are commonly found using two-handed axes or swords , although they will sometimes carry a melta or plasma gun as backup. They are often found riding jetbikes, though the majority are armed simply with assault packs. They will always have a dedicated Thunderhawk or Stormbird, as well as a Rhino they have customized to their liking.

*'''''Breaca Seidhe''''' : "Fae Marked". Specialized armoured shock assault and line-breaker fast attack formations. They are originated from inter-legion fraternity of blacksmith-engineers and consequently proficient at utilizing plasma, graviton and other exotic, esoteric arsenals. Their signature equipment is a unique open-top Rhino variant, the ''Géardhroi'' (Razorback). While sacrificing some transport capacity and protection, it enables them to deploy equipped with normally unusable, or unfitting, weaponry. Typically the Fae Marked were Techmarines, though a select few of the Legion's Silverhands were allowed to join.

*'''''Obaidh Seath''''' : "Spirit Folk". Specialized urban warfare and siege assault formations focused on minimize casualties, both Imperials and civilians. They were the only Thunder Kings to regularly use Thunder Hammers. The particular pattern of hammer they used was intended to stun foes as opposed to slaying them, allowing for a mostly unharmed prisoner. The Spirit Folk always maintain a squad of Filid, to ensure their prisoners are kept in acceptable condition.

*'''''Lann an Arsa''''': "Blades of the Ancients." Risen with advent of Legion Fleet. Elite boarding parties and specialized breacher formations. They were highly respected among the Legion and were commonly given high quality and exotic equipment. A signature piece was a slimmed down jump pack. This variant was not meant for rapid assaults, but rather to allow the marine to maneuver in the void. They also carried shaped melta charges suitable for blasting a hole into a starship hull, if used in great enough numbers.

*'''''Oingheaw Andagha''''' : "Daughters of Starfire". Legion's elite fleet formations. The title encompassed both fighter pilots and crew members of larger ships. Due to significance of Legion fleet elements, they exert substantial influence. Experts of void warfare and closely associated with Lann an Arsa, which performs boarding actions.
