==Chapter Combat Doctrine== Numbers: 900, 4 Companies. The Fire Breathers are a chapter that make heavy usage of fast attack, as their doctrine states. However, they realize the necessity for heavy assault, which is why they utilize some of their more powerful warbeasts. Surprisingly, they make little use of Flamers, as they rely on their Rexes for attacks of that nature, as such, they make heavy use of plasma, Lascannons and melta weapons. Beastmasters is a common nickname for the Fire Breathers. The Fire Breathers do not often utilize vehicles on the ground. Instead, favouring their Dragon-like Warbeasts known as Rexes. When fitted for war, they are given special armour that makes them about as tough to damage as most tanks, yet lightweight enough to not restrict their mobility. Though there are lots of different types. ===Common Rexes variants=== ====Rex Seeker==== The Seekers are lower-mid sized creatures, usually having 2 riders, one that pilots the creature, whilst the other mans the Assault Cannon behind the pilot. Seekers are incredibly fast and prone to flying low and fast across terrain to avoid anti-air batteries. They are primarily scouts. ====Rex Annihilator==== The Annihilators are tank hunters. Although lacking mobility, due to their immense bulk, they tend to be one of the stronger Rexes varients. Their job is to attack armoured targets. This varient requires 2 riders. One to control the beast, and another to mount the Lascannon/Multimelta turret. ====Rex Destructor==== The Destructor bares the most resemblance to the dragons of old. The rider tends to have an Autocannon mounted in front of them. These are generalist Rexes, useful for most unit types except the larger ones. ====Rex Firefeet==== Firefeet are one of the smallest Rexes that the Fire Breathers field. They are about the size of a Motorbike, and are ridden as such. The riders tend to wield power-weapons. ====Rex Lightfeet==== The Lightfeet are the attack dogs of the Fire Breathers. They are long, thin Rexes that bears a striking resemblance to the ancient dragons that covered the the asian continent of Earth and about the size of a large dog, most squads have a Lightfeet with them, as they have a powerful sense of smell, so can detect enemies nearby, without the need for heavy sensor equipment. ===Rarer Rexes variants=== ====Rex Goliath==== The Goliath is the largest known varient of Rexes, almost the same size as the legendary Keradops, but not quite. Goliaths are very rare, but incredibly powerful, breathing great inferno's and with a size comparable to that of a Titan (Though not as tall as a Warhound.) With little effort, the Goliath is able to crush whole armies in its path. It is force to be reconned with. The only Goliath currently in service to the Fire Breathers is Bewallard, supposedly the king of the Rexes. To tame a Goliath is the ultimate test that every Chapter Master must go through to ascend to their position. Upon it's back is what looks like a cathedral, with a Megabolter. Bewallard can only be controlled by Chapter Master Ajdar and Kamalia Falkor. ====Rex Helios==== The Helios' are a varient of Rexes that bare a striking resemblance to the Goliath, but are far smaller, about the size of a Squiggoth. The Helios is incapable of flight, but instead carries a bunker on its back, that allows it to carry troops into battle. It is also mounted with several turrets, including a Twin-linked Lascannon atop its head and a Twin-linked Assault Cannon emplacement on either side. It also carries a twin-linked Hellfire missile launcher on its back. ===Vehicles=== Vehicles are used by the Fire Breathers. Their Aircraft and Tanks are piloted by Tech Marines. However, they do not utilize lighter vehicles, instead, choosing to use Rexes in their stead. Being assigned to a light vehicle, such as a Motorbike or Land Speeder, is considered a great dishonour. It is reserved for those who dishonour themselves, or whose actions have caused the needless deaths of battle brothers or civilians. ====Dreadnoughts==== Dreadnoughts are rarely utilized, due to their sheer size and weight. A Dreadnought is incapable of riding a Rexes, as such, few aspire to be interned. However, they are appreciated by the chapter as warriors that gave everything for the Imperium, in life and in death. They utilize a unique varient of Dreadnought called "Goliath Pattern" Dreadnoughts, that have large tusk-like spikes on the front, one arm is usually a Multimelta or Inferno Cannon, whilst the other is usually a Draco-claw (The Dreadnought equivalent of a Lightning Claw)
