[[File:Falcon's_Claws.PNG|350px|right|thumb|[https://ol.reddit.com/r/Warhammer30k/comments/js7l7c/burgediin_sarhvu_the_falcons_claws_stealthy_as/ Custom Falcon's Claws model done by Johanhgg.]]] The Falcon's Claws (or ''Burgediin Sarhvu'') were [[White Scars]] warriors during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]]. ==Overview== The Falcon's Claws were warriors that excelled at reading the battlefield and were able to determine where the Legion's enemies, were most likely to launch their attacks or defense. They were effectively the White Scars own take on the [[Reconnaissance Squad]]. Before the White Scars' battle took place, the Falcon's Claws were deployed far ahead of their Legion and began acting as long-range scouts, ambushers, assassins and harriers against their foes. They would attempt to eliminate key commanders, mark key points of assault and destroy supply routes - all of which they reported back to their Legion. When the White Scars' attack finally began, the actions of the Falcon's Claws had shaped the battle to their Legion's advantage and helped ensure they were victorious. This was not the end of their duties however, as the Falcon's Claws were then charged with pursuing and slaughtering any surviving enemies, that escaped the White Scars' attack. Unlike the majority of Space Marine legions of its time, the Falcon's Claws were unique in the fact that they were the only ones equipped with Cameleoline [[Scout Armour|Recon Scout Armour]], the Falcon's Claws went into battle with twin pairs of [[Lightning Claws]] and Grenades, though some also wielded [[Thunder Hammer]]s, [[Powerfist]]s, [[Hand Flamer]]s, [[Plasma Pistol]]s, [[Bolt Pistol]]s, and [[Volkite Serpenta]]s. ==Crunch== On the [[Horus Heresy]] tabletop, they were Scouts with Lightning Claws (or power weapons and bolt pistols, they cost the same) which was a wild sort of concept to work with. While they lack ''Infiltrate'' and ''Scout'', they do have ''Outflank'' so they can pop in wherever they like without worrying about them being pulped halfway across the field. They also get ''Marked for Death'' and ''Precision Strikes (5+)'' so they can take down whatever their intended target is. This is further supported if you pick up a hawk for extra re-rolls against targets you didn't mark. They are obviously meant for shredding soft targets in the enemy's backline, but the champion can swap one claw for a power fist or thunder hammer if you need some extra oomph. {{White Scars}}
