'''Rampagers''' were elite squads of [[World Eaters]] infantry used during the [[Great Crusade]] and later the [[Horus Heresy]].

==Overview==
These shock assault troops formed the most savage and bloodthirsty warriors in a [[Space Marine Legion|Legion]] already known for its fury. All possessed the prohibited [[Butcher's Nails|psycho-surgery]] that drove them to even greater heights of rage, some so far gone that they had to be restrained between battles and were simply known as [[Caedere]] or 'Butchers'. Others focused their desire for slaughter through martial discipline, mastering [[Caedere Weapon|a variety of savage weapons]] patterned from those used by [[Angron]] in his gladiatorial arena days.{{Fn|1}} 

Besides the standard '''Excoriator [[Chainaxe]]s''' some Rampagers were armed with [[meteor hammer]]s, barb-hook lashes or paired [[Falax blade]]s.{{Fn|2}}
