Editing Bike Squad

Bike Squads are fast attack [[Space Marine]] squads utilizing attack bikes. Using bikes are armed with [[bolter|storm bolter]]s or [[meltagun|multi-melta]]s, Bike Squads serve as either a scout force used to quickly determine enemy capabilities or as a vanguard force to swiftly attack enemy formations to allow the infantry squads to deal with the survivors. They are often paired with [[Land Speeder]]s for these tasks. 

Bike Squads often vary depending on the [[Space Marine Chapter]] they belong to. The [[White Scars]] use Bike Squads, echoing [[Jaghatai Khan]]'s use of mounted cavalry during his conquest of [[Chogoris]]. The [[Dark Angels]] have devoted their entire Second Company into utilizing Bike Squads and Land Speeders as the [[Ravenwing]], echoing the mounted knights of the Order on ancient [[Caliban]] who hunt <s>the [[Fallen Angels]]</s> TRAITORS FROM THE NINE LEGIONS AND SUBSEQUENT RENEGADE CHAPTERS, NONE OF WHICH INCLUDE THE SONS OF [[Lion El'Jonson|LION EL'JONSON]]. The [[Space Wolves]] Bike Squads are known as Swiftclaws, who are operated by Blood Claws (the Chapter's equivalent of [[Assault Squad|Assault Marines]]) and serve as a vanguard force. Their numbers are few, as the Space Wolves consider Bike Squads an overly headstrong tactic (though riding in on a [[Fenris|Fenrisia]] wolf is okay).
