	Fluffwise, the Razorback Rikarius is a Razorback variant used by the [[Blood Ravens]] and others. It was first developed in M37, when a resurgence of Ork forces in the Aurelian System prompted commanders to produce a tank that could eliminate vast amounts of infantry. The resulting vehicle was named after Yriel Rikarius, the Blood Ravens 2nd Captain at the time who had connections to the High Magos M'Lell of Mars.

	M'Lell ensured the revised Razorback STC was quickly fabricated and put into service alongside the embattled Blood Ravens. Sacrificing transport capacity to mount a variety of weapons such as twin-linked [[Assault Cannon]]s and two [[Hurricane Bolter]]s, squadrons of these vehicles have since served many other Space Marine Chapters. Ergo, treat this as the Razorback's equivalent of the [[Land Raider Ares]], where it really puts the '''Infantry Fighting''' in infantry fighting vehicle. In the intervening centuries, their numbers have dwindled and the [[Derp\|STC lost]], which has resulted in the surviving vehicles being treated as relics.

	Razorbacks are kind of an oddity. They have reduced transport ability (6 models compared to the 10 of a typical Rhino) and they cost a bit more (considerably more depending on the weapon option). They also lose out on firepoints, and are a much more prominent target than a regular Rhino, since their heavy weapon basically announces their threat level to everyone on the battlefield.		Razorbacks are kind of an oddity. They have reduced transport ability (6 models compared to the 10 of a typical Rhino) and they cost a bit more (considerably more depending on the weapon option). They also lose out on firepoints (which don't exist any more anyway), and are a much more prominent target than a regular Rhino, since their heavy weapon basically announces their threat level to everyone on the battlefield.

	As such, it's best not to think of the Razorback as a tank, but rather as a light but heavily-armed Infantry Fighting Vehicle that can also carry a few troops. It is, perhaps, best-suited for use by Sternguard Veterans or Devastators, who can use the Razorback to quickly re-deploy and while adding the vehicle's firepower to their own.

It is, perhaps, best-suited for use by Sternguard Veterans or Devastators, who can use the Razorback to quickly re-deploy and while adding the vehicle's firepower to their own.

	Razorbacks by default come with a [[Twin-Linked]] [[Heavy Bolter]], but they can switch this out for a [[Twin-Linked]] [[Heavy Flamer]], a [[Twin-Linked]] [[Assault Cannon]], a [[Twin-Linked]] [[Lascannon]], or a combination weapon that integrates a Lascannon and a [[Twin-Linked]] [[Plasma Gun]]. Heavy Flamer Razorbacks can be useful for escorting Melta suicide squads, but the others are all better-used for supporting Devastators and the like. Tank-Busting squads benefit from a Lascannon Razorback, whereas Infantry squads often do well with just the basic Heavy Bolter Razorback. The Assault Cannon Razorback is a good compromise of power and strength. Please note that parts for the twin Heavy Flamer, twin Assault Cannon, and Lascannon/Plasmagun options are not included in the kit. However, kits for the Assault Cannon and LasPlas options can be obtained on [[Forgeworld]].

	The Razorback was developed after the [[Horus Heresy]], and was intended to provide [[Space Marine]]s with heavier fire-support. In contrast to the [[Rhino]] the [[Razorback]] loses its firing points and can only carry 6 [[Space Marines]], but in return it gains a variety of heavy weapon options. This enhanced weapon mix means that the Razorback is a very flexible way to get more firepower on the table while still providing transport capability.

	The [[Chaos Space Marines]] were intrigued by the design of the Razorback after encountering it, but ultimately decided to simply [[Havoc Launcher\|arm their Rhinos with support weapons]] instead, since that didn't involve flagging down manufacturing plants (of which they don't have anywhere near as much as the loyalists) or cutting the transport capacity by 40%.
