Headhunter Squads

	===Headhunter Squads===		===Headhunter Squads===

	The Headhunter ~~squads were formed from those Legionaries who~~ were chosen ~~on pure merit as~~ the best assault marksmen and close ~~combat~~ fighters in ~~their~~ Legion.		The Headhunter squad was a new formation, created by Thirteenth to fill the role of rapidly disabling enemy command chains and eliminating persons of interest. They were comprised of legionaries chosen mostly for being the best assault marksmen and close quarters fighters in the Legion, but also for their quick thinking and personal agility; often the window of opportunity to make the "kill-shot" is mere moments, and thus fast and accurate reactions were highly prized.
	~~Comprised of a specialised force of Space Marines~~, ~~it was~~ the ~~job~~ of ~~a Headhunter Squad~~ to ~~identify and take out a designated enemy target; its warlords, officers, priests, demagogues, hero's~~ - ~~whomever their target was~~, ~~they~~ were ~~never safe from the Headhunter squads, who would hunt and slay their target with a well-placed bolt round or blade, sometimes while the chaos of battle raged around them~~.

	~~The Children~~ of ~~Armok Legion are said~~ to be the ~~first to form this squad configuration~~, ~~with the Emperor's approval~~, and ~~it soon spread to many other Legions, although its use sat poorly within~~ the ~~combat doctrine~~ of ~~some~~.		Using the chaos of battle as a distraction, a Headhunter Squads primary role was to seek, identify and execute designated enemy targets.
			Commanders, officers, medics, demagogues, champions - whomever the target was, they were marked, and would be dead before the smoke of battle had cleared.

	~~Sometimes, a Headhunter squad would be forced to rely on~~ the ~~briefest window of opportunity~~ to ~~take down their targets at close range~~, ~~rather than have the luxury of distance~~ and ~~able sighting as a sniper in the~~ legions ~~Stalker Squads might have~~.		The Children of Armok Legion were the first to form this squad configuration. It's deadly effectiveness earning it as much acclaim as it gained detractors for being dishonourable. Despite many legions resisting, its effectiveness made it popular, and many legions adopted it for their own use.
	~~To aid them in the kill, Seeker Squads were usually equipped with special issue~~ ammunition ~~(Kraken, Scorpius~~ and ~~Tempest bolt shells) and Combi-~~weapons ~~where applicable~~, to ~~better deal with their chosen victims~~.
			Special ammunition and weapons were often deployed by the Headhunter Squads, to ensure a target was eliminated effectively and efficiently.

	Headhunter Squads in the Children are also usually the best at Urban fighting in the legion, their quick reactions, and high precision giving them the edge in the cramped battlefield conditions of urban fighting, where enemy fire can come from difficult and oblique angles.		Headhunter Squads in the Children are also usually the best at Urban fighting in the legion, their quick reactions, and high precision giving them the edge in the cramped battlefield conditions of urban fighting, where enemy fire can come from difficult and oblique angles.
	This predisposition for quick reactions and the emphasis on speed needed to function, meant that Headhunter ~~squads~~ would sometimes operate in scout armour, to allow them better range of movement.

	It would be a mistake however, to underestimate the Children of Armok's abilities in pitched battle or on a level strategic field, as they have repeatedly demonstrated their abilities to hold their own and repeatedly turn events in their favour, abilities which had drawn grudging praise from both the Warmaster Hektor and Thomas Gaudin[?] in action.

	The tactical coherence and fluid mastery of complex stratagems deployed by the Children of Armok, especially in the realms of infiltration and covert assaults also made them masters of eloquent maneuvers, feints and ambushes, finding their beginnings in Uriels mastery of Regicide, that were then expanded on and honed down every day since.
