Valkyries of House Walkur: Removed the eternal quest to find a husband. I might possibly add it back on a later date when it doesn't make up one fifth of the article.

No normal knight suit could take such a fall without its legs buckling under the force, so a special model, the Valkyrie Knight, is required. Using multiple rockets in the shoulders, the Valkyrie Knight can fall from upwards a kilometer's height. However, dropping into range of enemy antitank weaponry is dangerous no matter how fast you deploy, and so besides House Walkur's careful deployment, the valkyries also rely on the suites of secondary weaponry their knights are equipped with-lascannons, flamers, melt bombs, flare strips, or even missile racks-to destroy materiel before it destroys them.

The valkyries are proud maidens, who only accept great men to be their husbands. If there were men in the house the matter of courting would be simpler, but valkyries must search for their groom somewhere besides Tannhäuser. During their many campaigns the valkyries keep an eye on the forces beside them-fellow knights, esteemed Imperial Guard regiments, the like-to see if one among them is a brave and pure soul to match the valkyrie. Watching other armies does more than help them get married, however; deep research into allied units helps the valkyries gain an understanding of what forces they work with, further improving their operational planning.

The Hektor Heresy

Valkyries of House Walkur

The woman-warriors of House Walkur are no ordinary knights: they are valkyries who fly into battle bringing doom and lightning. The valkyries of House Walkur moved swiftly with assistance from the skald sky transport, deploying directly from ship to surface on top of the enemy. Entering combat immediately, the valkyries have much work to do: they must eliminate enemy anti-armor forces to ensure their own survival, then deal with the rest of the rabble to ensure their allies'.

No normal knight suit could take such a fall without its legs buckling under the force, so a special model, the Valkyrie Knight, is required. Using multiple rockets in the shoulders, the Valkyrie Knight can fall from upwards a kilometer's height. However, dropping into range of enemy antitank weaponry is dangerous no matter how fast you deploy, and so besides House Walkur's careful deployment, the valkyries also rely on the suites of secondary weaponry their knights are equipped with-lascannons, flamers, melt bombs, flare strips, or even missile racks-to destroy materiel before it destroys them.

Shield-Brothers

No warrior can stand on their own; even knights need men-at-arms to support them. Dropping alongside valkyries are the shield-brothers of Tannhäuser. Whereas the valkyries are merely headstrong, the shield-brothers (And sisters) are practically insane, fighting against foes often beyond them with their lords, going where knights cannot reach to dislodge entrenched enemies in hand-to-hand combat.
